@mitokondria.bsky.social I don't know if you like Star Wars and would therefore appreciate this, but I hope you do: ... when I was a little kid, I totally thought midiclorians were mitochondria.

@evavroslin.bsky.social just saw your GFM post. Sorry things didn't work out. It was such an exciting opportunity. More will come along --let's have faith in that hope.

Society does NOT need to fix us so that women more conveniently serve the sexual needs of men. How about --gee, I dunno--teaching them to perceive and treat women as actual human beings? Maybe they'd get some then.

Yes! That's it! That guy is living rent free in my head today and for the life of me, I couldn't remember his name. 😅

Anyone remember --off the top of your head-- the title of that Herman Melville story where the protagonist just stands around in the office and says "I'd prefer not to" to every instruction or request... which included ever even leaving the spot i the office where he was standing...?

When you're so racist you want to literally BREED the black out of humanity. #thegreatdebate #eugenics

I hate this this is not a thing. Why is it not totally a thing???

You ever have all these awesome things to do in mind but you literally can't do ANYTHING because you can't decide WHICH awesome thing to do first?

Congratulations to all of the winners and finalists of the World Fantasy Awards!

I wonder how many of the 40 million people deprived of SNAP benefits next month are going to die. & Make no mistake. People ARE going to die. Of starvation. In America.

I can't sleep I'm so anxious. My homeland is facing a severely catastrophic event. I don't know how the people of Jamaica are going to make it through this. They certainly have the courage and resilience to weather such a disaster but damn, this is bad. #Melissa

“With my eyes closed, I see: constellations of my future—the hero, the lover, the companions, the enemies to slay.” Love the expertise on display in this story! @clclark.bsky.social in @uncannymagazine.bsky.social !

That's why I didn't ASK. I just CANCELED my sub and DELETED their app from my computer. Problem solved.

Name one TV show that you've NEVER watched but because of pop culture, it lives rent free in your head.

Haven't you heard? Building a lavish ballroom should take high, the highest priority over millions of starving Americans. Like who the f-k even gives a damn about THEM?

So I wanted to share the links for @roguestarmag.bsky.social's #kofi page, but it's still pulling my old information--as you can see below. The link works though! ko-fi.com/roguestarmag
