This is who we're deporting while we're importing sex traffickers like the Tate brothers and white supremacists who are nostalgic for Apartheid.

I wish the people around me cared as much about not needlessly hurting me as I do them. I got one invite for today, issued last min Tues eve, not by the person cooking, & ignoring health issues that mean I shouldn't have been invited. It was literally thoughtless & thus hurtful, but I can't SAY....

Reminder that my winter shelter fundraiser is up and running! Since I work with the shelter often they let me be an admin in their GiveButter account - GB is a non-profit fundraising platform. It's great because all the deposits go DIRECTLY to them! No money in my hands at all. givebutter.com/n5l31M

Just wanted to let everyone know about this terrible situation involving art theft so people don't unknowingly buy from this site. You can support Matthew directly via his shop here: yokai.com/shop/ or Patreon here: patreon.com/theyokaiguy, and maybe re-share this to help spread the word. Thanks.

you've tweeted 452k times since december 2013. that's 103 tweets a day. assuming you sleep 8 hours a day, that's a new tweet every ten mins for twelve years. talking about how to attract a high value man. brother, you need to attract a HIGH VALUE JOB

i have a lot of gratitude this year. i also have a tremendous amount of ingratitude towards institutions and "leaders" who should know better. not planning to forget.

poem that my dear friend @arcanumb.bsky.social wrote & published this week ❤️‍🔥🏳️‍⚧️

am now subscribing to the idea that who's afraid of virginia woolf is a thanksgiving movie

There's a word for an attempted coup with no repercussions for the participants. Practice.

If data centers are getting this ridiculous amount of investment, they can use some of this money to expand power grids. This whole "socialize the cost while privatizing the profits" thing is unworkable.

They’re kidnapping . And at this point if you see a vulnerable child and they ain’t identified Acting accordingly

James Cameron is on record that he made the T-1000 a cop DELIBERATELY. Just saying.

IMO the weird exception some supposed leftists seem to make for condemning-the-theft-of-labor-except-art-lol-steal-that-shit is just a weird intersection with puritan "if you enjoy yourself, it's not a real job" brainworms. "fun" job = member of the leisure class (ROFL) = fair game. Somehow.

Cats between 15- 20 pounds are a problem, but manageable at home. Over that you need to be working with a veterinary clinic that can assist with physical/water therapy. * Never put an obese cat on a diet without veterinary supervision. It’s alarmingly easy to drop a cat into liver failure. 2/

I can’t imagine buying another Boar’s Head product for a long, long time.

new favourite New York Times term for a British thing just dropped

Hey I remember a time when friends would loan each other books regularly. "Can I borrow that when you're done?" was a common, kind of sweet question. It meant you trusted your friend's taste or at least wanted to talk to them about the books you were reading.

A disabled friend going to FanFest is concerned about the lack of consideration for disabilities and may end up selling their ticket. If anyone can pass along to SE or someone in fanfest, would be appreciated. would be sad if someone couldn't enjoy the event because of obstacles.

If you want to see how quickly everyone goes into manufacturing consent mode, compare the full-court press tonight to the response to any of the people ICE has shot in the last few months, some of whom died.

After two assassination attempts on Trump by white guys born in the US, why is he not doing a "full review" of white guys who like guns?

Alt text that that has humor and personality and sounds like it was written by the person who took the photo is great, but you gotta do that while remembering that the fundamental purpose is communicating what the image is.

tldr Poverty line is calculated as 3x a year’s food budget b/c the calculation dates to the 60s when food was 1/3 of spending. Food is now 1/16 of spending due to other costs rising hugely, so the official US poverty line for a family of 4 is $35,000 but updating the logic it should be $140,000!

My book is out and it’s about the power of archive and voice and my fellow fellows are dope as hell in it nupress.northwestern.edu/978081014906...

I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

Puritans were such obnoxious fuckfaces, they less left England for religious freedom but were so thoroughly shunned by others, no one wanted anything to do with them so they HAD to leave. And when they got here? They did a genocide and hanged women. So. Fuck Thanksgiving!

On the topic of Thansgiving, my parents moved to Plymouth when I was a teenager. The one thing that cured my ra-ra pilgrim bullshit real quick were the Indigenous Wampanoag protests proclaiming Thanksgiving a day of mourning. This holiday has good carbs. And that's about it.

After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

This will only matter to like 4 of you but I've coordinated about 20 Disney trips in my life of big groups of friends and as such get asked for tips a lot. So a thread, apply none or all. 1) a backpack 2) in it, bring a spare pair of underwear in case you sweat through pair one

Interviewer: “What do you say to trans kids who are starting their transition?” Zohran Mamdani: "We're gonna make this a city that doesn't just protect trans kids, but also celebrates and cherishes them."

This is a real shot/chaser moment.

My entire life in one cartoon, you might ask? This little masterwork, from the latest Private Eye.

imagine what we could be doing if the federal government wasn't actively trying to throttle the growth of this industry

Hey, props to writers who got literally anything done this year.

The shooting of National Guard members is a horrific act of violence. I’m praying for these servicemembers and their loved ones.

The first time I noticed this sign I asked if there was a reason they’d put it up or if was just preemptive. “Oh, there’s ALWAYS a reason for the signs.”

This is a very sweet (if very Christian-centric) trans-led mutual aid project that connects anonymous gift givers with unhoused or in-foster care trans kids. www.transanta.com/about

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

Please consider doing a kindness this giving season and help Dani fulfill this Angel Tree request. Those are for children, usually living in poverty, who need help having a brighter holiday. Even if you can't cover the whole thing, you can help make a difference for this child.

And a lot of that is the wash job the rich techies did on themselves. "I went from working in my garage to a billionaire" (working in your parents garage, they paid your rent, and loaned you $500K, & put you in touch with other tech people to start your business, & got lawyers for you...)

I’m having a difficult time due to a lot of work loss + health issues limiting what I can pursue. I could use some support. TY. • thetrudz.com/shop book, tees, prints & more 💸 • cash.me/thetrudz • tinyurl.com/paypal-thetrudz • venmo.com/u/thetrudz

An 18yo US citizen, surrounded by eight masked, armed agents of the state, taken into custody, not read his rights, not offered a chance to contact a lawyer, proof of citizenship ignored, handcuffed so tightly he later required medical attention. Profoundly, profoundly anti-American shit.

People got fussy back in the day when people brought up the term "social contract" as part of gaming, but that's what it is. - What kind of game are we trying to play? - What's people's roles in that? Stated up front, people can decide if that's what they want or not. (cont)

The main issue with the box o art is the supplies in it aren't even crayola level functional. An experienced artist will know this, appreciate that your heart was in the right place, and then never use it. A beginning artist will not know this and blame themselves when their art is bad.
