This is how I want people to talk about me

Oh my god. This was… something. Please, people. Stop getting Wil Wheaton to narrate audiobooks. There are people who do a great job at it, and he is not one of those people. (Audio on for this one.)

This is a desperate last-ditch effort by a failing president to suppress votes because his agenda of pardoning pedophiles and ripping away health care is about to lose him the midterms. My message to Trump is this: if you come for Oregon’s vote-by-mail, you’ll have hell to pay.

It's TDOV and I'm trans so you all have to look at this. And take action. The Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (Professional Counsellors) should get flooded with complaints about Chiles. I imagine she's a fan of Jordan Peterson, so let's help her be more like him (unable to practice.)

Some people say it's wrong to propose marriage to 7 church grannies and 5 aunts. Those people have never had hashbrown casserole.

Hey gang, from today until April 30th, Juniper Books is gonna be donating a portion of sales of the fancy Sworn Soldier editions to Trans Lifeline!

Warning: trans people can see you

Trans Day of Whatever This Is (Akwaeke Emezi)

Happy Farmworker Day, California. Wrote about the shift from celebrating an individual to a collective.

Somehow he believes science and science-focused solutions isn’t “political” while it’s actually been one of the biggest dividing lines in recent human history

Forget sex scenes, sometimes someone walks in on you watching an old movie and all you can do is sputter "I can't explain this part, I'm sorry" and pull the blanket over your head.

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

The ideological foundation of these stories is entirely messed up. Joanne never resolved the darkness she created because she believes “human nature is human nature” & that it doesn’t matter if you have a wand, nothing will ever be able to solve things like slavery & fascism.

tricking other men into mating with me so i can steal their precious bodily heat and use it as my own en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garter_...

Basically everything Americans learned from movies about what "masculinity" is in the 20th century was invented by queer people

The only street trees I know where males are deliberately planted to avoid fruit are ginkos. You do not want ginko fruit rotting on the sidewalk, although it might start to smell better if it rots.

The bluesky address is @attie.ai and it really needs to be in the top five accounts blocked on this platform. This is honestly some of the most tonedeaf shit I’ve seen from BS and thats saying something

Every day I get a little more feral about my citizenship certificate. Please please come through. Aaaaaahhh. (It's not even because of dislike for where I am now. It's because I love Canada. And yes, everything's a mess. So's your old man. What is there to love besides messes?)

Congratulations @avilewis.ca and what good news this is for Canadian climate politics (Avi should be known in his own right, but here's a booster for those of you who don't: he's married to Naomi Klein.)

You know what's a really great magic fantasy series you should read? Witch Hat Atelier! www.tcj.com/witch-hat-at...

i just smiled and thought to myself "it's so cool". then i realized there wasn't even a specific "it", but i still meant it. "it's so cool" is one of my core beliefs

I said this privately to friends but I like it well enough to thread it here: Palm Sunday is Jesus anticipating 2000 years of narrative theory and observing that any story can be both comic and tragic, any moment within any story can contain ambiguities too complex to allow for resolution,

(showing this picture to my hairdresser) lets talk bangs. Can you fuck my shit up in a polygonal style

Uhhh years old #pokemon art of my guy. Ex rocket who spoils his stupid cats

I feel like rich people's crimes are softened with the word "scandal", like it's spicy gossip and not exploitation, war crimes, sex trafficking, paedophilia, murder, and other indescribably vile actions that were gleefully committed. "Epstein Scandal" doesn't cut it. These people are depraved.

Just chilling in the Pleistocene. I would like to hear Neanderthals sing.

For the record, I will do your book cover illo for $200. I love drawing book covers.

Andy Weir is giving very much Elon Musk tech bro vibes - let’s have world war 3 so we can come out our bunkers and get to play at being Zephram Cochrane! Who cares how many minorities die, I’m a privileged dude who will likely survive and get to play with my rockets!

Ah yes this IS a distinction between a lot of NG and JKR fans. Oh that's kind of sad, the poor dears.

*sobs into drink* Glyphosate is massively overused and almost certainly carcinogenic and the surfectants in Round-Up are horrible so it should be used extremely sparingly, but celiac disease? Stomach biome made of plants? WHAT IN THE NAME OF HIPPOCRATES IS THIS!??

This quote still lives in my head rent-free

I had no idea about this aspect of Hughes' life and work.

Me at parties when people find out I'm a literary copy editor. (Including the bit where I don't have the brains for it, buuuut also including the part when I go ahead and insert the rant.)

"at 12:03 PM, President Trump told reporters he wanted a ceasefire with Iran. At 12:05 he declared victory. At 12:07 he announced he was sending Marines. At 12:08 he said no boots on the ground. At 12:11 he said he did not want a ceasefire. At 12:16 he declared victory again....."

I grabbed a Blue Prince Basement Key from the iam8bit table at GDC. (I suspect they sold out of those fast.) Now it's hanging in my hallway and I am genuinely happy to see it every day, you know? Not often that a game object hits exactly that sweet spot of *thing*-ness.

Rather like sex, the friction is part of the fun. As writers we dont want to eliminate friction. We want to manage it for the best effect. IMO of course.

I don't normally subscribe to the "German has a word for it" thing because all languages can invent and borrow new words! That said, I can't stop thinking about "hobbyless" as an insult since I saw it a few days ago, so here you go It promotes a growth mindset!! www.tumblr.com/abbiistabbii...

negative steam reviews of a 'who wants to be a millionaire?' game that are cracking me up

Don't think the 2005 Hitchhiker's Guide film is wholly successful, but infinite praise to the Jim Henson Creature Shop and whoever put Sam Rockwell in those lamé shorts.

CHICKENS! A TRUE STORY OF CHICKENS is coming to print! Sign up now to stay in the loop and in the coop. I just made that up. zoop.gg/c/chickens-a...

Just a reminder of that time Gene Roddenberry said that he wished he had had gay sex, believed everyone was on some level bisexual, wanted LGBT rep on Trek & hoped he was “not male or female”, aka nonbinary in modern parlance. Anyways, tell me how Roddenberry would consider a gay Klingon bad?

I love this text post so I drew it

Landscape Features xkcd.com/3221/

This is one of the greatest comics of all time.

Please soothe your soul with this footage of an enraged muppet being treated at the wild muppet center.

And also from the NYT piece: “It makes you rethink in history all those heroes,” Ms. Lopez said. “The movement — that’s the hero.”

When you think you're a liberator of your people and you're also sexually abusing women and girls from among those people you're demonstrating that you have trouble recognizing them as people. (And that is way too common.)
