Here's a free PDF copy of Lundy Bancroft's essential book Why Does He Do That?: Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men. tinyurl.com/bancroftpdf Please repost. You never know who might need to read this. (Or reread it.)

What the fuck is going on? I am being stalked. I am being hunted. PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO KILL ME. Why is he LAUGHING?

I'm not saying that we could reduce violence of all kinds by an order of magnitude by demanding universally better work breaks for all but I am saying we should try it and see what happens. I am hereby collecting signatures for the newly launching Siestas for All campaign

one unexpected outlook change from being a dad is taking the self care people 10x more seriously when it comes to dealing with weirdly directed anger and rage (including Online). many angry posts should have been naps or little packets of crackers

The best way to fight back against propaganda is right there between your slippers and your keyboard. #CriticalThinking

Bears worldwide ramp up attacks as climate idiocy shreds their habitats, pushing famished animals into depopulated Japanese villages and Slovak backyards for desperate raids. #ClimateChange

Hate begins in words. It begins in jokes. In insults. In dehumanizing labels applied over and over until a group of people no longer feels fully human. Political leaders, media figures, online personalities all contribute when they mock empathy, reward cruelty, and frame others as enemies.

If you are silent when you see someone get harassed or targeted online, then you are complacent- and you aid the harassment. You feed the cycle.

A dead, fallen tree in the rainforest explodes into a kaleidoscope of exquisite new life, colour, and beauty. Just one example of what's lost when we 'tidy' deadwood away from a natural ecosystem. Leave it rot down for nature. 🌍

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing. You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics. That is all.

Hi, I’m family.

"Light in the Dark"

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

My greatest wish is that the dark fairy’s curse upon us is finally lifted, and our human forms crack and break open. Three badgers will emerge, blink in the dawn of a new day, and run off into the mossy old forest, free at last.

The most shocking revelation of the Twitter era is that most highly successful people are just absolute freaks

Bullies are losers. That is all.

Lol. Does anybody know how to perform miracles?

Yearly reminder that you CAN just become a different person, you're not as imprisoned in your life as you think. You can just be the one who dresses nice or exercises or reads a lot, or whatever. You can just start doing it, some people might make fun of you but they don't really care.

Happy New Year to you, too, from the boreal forest in Minnesota. And from the animals I like to take photos of, such as this Fisher.

I stumbled onto a small herd of Icelandic ponies near Gimli yesterday. They were a bit far from the road and the weather was nasty, but I managed to capture this lovely moment.

Reminder.

I was taking a class about QiGong a few years ago to improve my balance and flexibility and so on. By the end, I felt better so I thanked him for everything he’d done. He said back, “Why? I didn’t do anything. YOU did all the work.” This is why Coyote doesn’t need to sell anything.

PSA (27/12/2015): 1) I’m mass-unfollowing accounts. Anyone who doesn’t interact with me, or who I don’t recognize. 2) If I’ve added you, your profile sounded cool. I still need to skim through accounts manually, so you might be removed. 3) I don’t care about followbacks. Welcome! 🍻

Happy news! My new government ID has arrived. Gender: 𝑿. I AM OFFICIALLY NONBINARY. When I hear strangers whispering “Is that a guy or a girl?” a little too loudly, I’ll smile and flip a coin. Celebrate with me. :D

Hey, instead of yelling at people about not using Alt text, if it's really important with you, post the alt text in comments. Accessibility is important, yes, but let's not forget that people have different levels of energy to provide them. It is not always malicious intent.

Usual disclaimer: Affirmation Coyote is not me, but they have my support.

Kill all yesterdays Let’s just start again.

Look at this fuzzball. I want to pet the floof. 💚 “Duma” is Swahili for “cheetah”. #TheMoreYouKnow

Unicorn, Fox Fur and Christmas Tree apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25122... A star forming region cataloged as NGC 2264, this beautiful but complex arrangement of interstellar gas and dust is about 2,700 light-years distant in the faint but fanciful constellation Monoceros, the Unicorn.

Closest thing I have to a reindeer photo. Have a wonderful day, everyone!

I am honoured that MAD Magazine actually wrote a strip poking fun at my gender weirdness: “My pronoun is THEY. My verb is LIVE.” I fucking miss that gang of idiots. So much love. 💚

It’s a strange kind of freedom when you think of someone who once shaped your life and realize it no longer matters where they are or what they’re doing.

Good morning. What are we mad about today?

My foggy neighborhood last night when I got home. The holiday season is here. ♥️💚💜
