Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

RIP Jane Goodall. There's so much to say about her career, her activism, her science. Primatology was the home of so many bigoted approaches to race, gender, and animality when she arrived and the field became more humane because of her. A truly transformative figure.

Me when someone shares their AO3 content

EVERYONE STOP EVERYTHING Mychal the Librarian is hosting the Reading Rainbow revival!!! reactormag.com/reading-rain...

the way to do that, btw, is to say "you will never, ever have my vote again if you throw my trans family under the bus" and mean it. sort of a live demonstration of how values & ethics work in the wild

if you have democrat rep/senators i recommend calling and reminding them you will never vote for them again if they bend the knee on this. shutting down the government is the correct choice. that is the exact phrasing in my 3 calls and it took 5 min total bsky.app/profile/pink...

still sort of surreal to remember I was there and also that I met @namajague.bsky.social for the first time & enjoyed the immortal exchange & true wrestling fandom experience in line for ciders after we’d been talking for 20 minute: “oh by the way. what’s your name?”

Yall help spent the last four days deluding myself into thinking Pac lost his gear at the airport and now im getting scared

normie pac is freaking me out so much. literally the complete opposite: short hair, bangs, wearing clothes, DRY

we bisexuals have made ourselves visible for the rapture

Happy #Bisibility Day to those who celebrate. 💙💜❤️

I try to remember that while they were fighting the ban on gender affirming care for minors here, one of the (trans) lawyers did a thread reminding folks that they're really good at making this feel like an overwhelming groundswell, but it is one clown car of debunked experts on a road trip.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

THE REASON 4 THE SEASON

they’re NOT 35 but… yeah

I want our young people to know that there is a path forward, that a better world is possible. I don't want them to give up, to become cynical. They deserve to be young and full of optimism. They are owed a world that supports and sustains optimism.

Support independent media and journalism. Fact check and make sure what you’re hearing is the correct information too. The internet is a blessing and a curse but it’s a tool nonetheless.

Are you SERIOUS! #AEWDynamite #SeptemberToRemember

My dog, who just can't help himself around garbage, was given access to the bathroom and ended up eating a razor head. I'm at the emergency vet right now and he needs surgery. Would somebody be willing to buy a FtV Mox Diamond and an Invention Lotus Petal for at least $1000? He's my little guy

Do I know anyone in the SC area who knows someone (or *is* someone) who wants to adopt two cats? I desperately need to find a home for my parents' two cats. I already have three, so I can't take them. They are boarding at their vet while I look, and I have to go home to PA in less than a week.

I want those of us who are getting into our middle-aged years and beyond to understand that as cynical and sad as we might feel, we have a responsibility to ensure that those who come after us have the energy to go on, to be creative in their problem-solving, to believe change is possible.

last repost: one of my very favorite twilight zone episodes with one of the most comforting final shots. also I too would follow a young Robert Redford anywhere.

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Second, when we say “All knowledge is contained in fandom” what I mean is that I once posted “Hey, does anybody know anything about Eastern European wars in the mid-to-late 1880s?” and three hours later had a historian go “I study the Serbo-Bulgarian war of 1885, can I help?”

what do you do when the middle distance isn’t far enough to stare into

Sometimes I inadvertently tell people on the phone “love you, bye” when I hang up and today I’d like to congratulate the guy I scheduled my oil change with

"On the last episode of his show before he was killed," Kirk told "his audience, falsely, that “one in 22 Black men will be a murderer in their lifetime” and that “by age of 23, half of all Black males have been arrested and not enough of them have been arrested.”

I said something last week that is more broadly applicable today: Calling for empathy is not neutral or apolitical when only one group of people have been socialized and brutalized into having empathy.

i think the @wsj.com should pay every trans person's rent this month

my best tip for things to do in bethesda, MD is that the mockingbirds on the fence of the dealership parking lot behind the marriott do a banger 15-minute best-of car alarm mimicry set around dinnertime

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.

Hey if you live in Ohio, calling your reps and expressing your displeasure over this upcoming law is worth doing
