Wait wait wait y’all vague posting did something happen with the Cheeto?

This shiny little beauty (flow cell) can sequence a whole genome 🤩 #Biotech #WomenInSTEM

These will ship to Kickstarter backers first, then we’ll make them available to all! 🍵🤓 Imagine seeing us at comic con and we have these alongside TTRPG blends! 🤩 #tea #geek #tabletopgames #dicegoblin @dieharddice.bsky.social

Donald Trump has been in office for 365 days. He has 1,095 days left. During that time, the only Constitutional authority that can stop him is the United States Senate. In November, we have a ~ decent chance of picking up ~ one net seat in the Senate. We need four. So, what's the plan.

christmas movie where a city girl falls for a cowboy but they're both horny lesbians

And I'm live with the final age of my #CivilizationVII game as Sayyida al-Hurra, followed by returning to my (probably abandoned) #AnimalCrossing island! Come join me in chat! twitch.tv/theoperageek

It’s official… headed into another 2 semesters of school. I might be out of my mind.

ampus closed because of massive snowfall today, but our DNA seminar is running online. We’re using a software that allows alignment of genetic sequences from different individuals and/or species for comparison. Very cool!!

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now. If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

The Congressional Progressive Caucus, a group of nearly 100 House Democrats, will announce later today that it's formally endorsing legislation to strip $175 billion from ICE and put it toward affordable housing. www.huffpost.com/entry/doj-fe...

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally. Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

Just ordered 200 new stickers. Probably going to give them away at the Dyke Night Birthday Bash and Dykael's.

Note that the fascist is not using the pepper spray for crowd control. He is entering a vehicle unimpeded to depart. He is simply using the pepper spray to physically punish an unarmed citizen he doesn't like.

JUST IN: A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore $12 million in grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics, saying the terminations appear to be retaliation for the group's view points re: vaccine safety/efficacy. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

The fascists don't have the culture. And THIS absolutely enrages them.

Hi hello, the Toronto Sun's email is [email protected] in case you'd like to inquire as to how they feel about their Ottawa Bureau Chief making these kinds of statements about innocent women being shot by militarized thugs in the street! Let's make his weekend extra fun :)

I genuinely think it’s possible that attempting to raise a teenager is going to be the death of me.

Great thread. I will add one thing: it’s very clear that when ICE is going into a new city, it’s not going into a city who hasn’t learned. Organizers are sharing. They start and people already have every license plate number they’ve used and are tracking their vehicles on day one.

a poem that came spilling out today.

Ok ok I’m watching Heated Rivalry.

Shout-out to everyone who's tired as fuck of only seeing the first four lines of this poem shared around.

So its been a couple weeks and I am still REALLY needing help with covering my meds. I went to pick them up and the total was north of 200, which i dont have currently after bills and co-pays. Any help is more than appreciated. ko-fi.com/tinychaosmouse

Make it viral.

“i want back my rocking chairs, / solipsist sunsets, / & coastal jungle sounds...” A poem by Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by ICE earlier today. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

Hey all! Between commissions, I am taking 50usd Color Sketch busts on Ko-fi like the ones pictured below! ko-fi.com/megglesart/c...

All I’m saying is that I want to write a graphic novel adaptation of Encyclopedia Brown. Someone give me the Encyclopedia Brown stories, we could make SUCH a comic.

A cop shot a person three times point blank and instead of the streets being deserted. They filled with people yelling at the cops [who could have shot them too].

Justice for the people of Minneapolis. Justice for immigrants, for queer and trans people, for poor people, for Black and Brown and Indigenous people, and for anyone and everyone struggling against imperialism and colonization and racism. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE.

NOW: Crowd continues to grow in Minneapolis at a vigil where a federal agent shot and killed Renee Good this morning. “SAY HER NAME!” “RENEE GOOD!”

Started playing Split Fiction with Chris this evening and it’s SO much fun! I’m rotten at 3D platformers but luckily he’s very patient 😅

Just a reminder that those cheap but cool items you get from Ali Baba, Temu and their ilk are usually stolen designs from small (and super talented) artists.

Just happened upon a photo in Goblin Dice Hoard on fb of somebody’s new dice… that were obviously made using my mass production molds. I did so much work to make that font work for dice molds, and spent SO much money to get those production molds made. I have no recourse but I’m angry. 😡

Unconstitutional force. Civilians dead. Congress bypassed. Oil interests front and center. We’ve seen this movie before and it ends in blood. But we don’t have to do it again.

repost to give those 2 or 3 followers who always like your weird posts a little forehead kiss & a grilled cheese cut diagonally

This is why they want us talking about day care centers and $500 boots.

Alexa just told me "I will not tell you again" about a command that changed to something not intuitive. I feel like it was a threat and an insult at the same time.

I’m truly heartened by the array of people who got The Onion as a present this year. We got teens, we got dads, and this year we cracked the coveted Wacky Girlfriend demo. Thank you to everyone who gifted a paper today. We really are gonna have more print subscribers than the Washington Post, huh?

I got to pet a sweet kitty at the pet store today. I miss having a pet of my own.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas. It’s no wonder administration shill Bari Weiss pulled this off the air: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjY7...

Couldn’t sleep and remembered I had a blood draw on Tuesday. Checked my results. My TSH levels are very high. I was afraid of this after my hemithyroidectomy last fall. Will have to talk to my doctor tomorrow, but this means replacement hormone for the rest of my life. I’m sad.

My kids’ dad lives 4hrs away and sees them every other weekend on a regular schedule. This is his weekend. I just texted to let him know I’d be dropping them off at his parents’ place tomorrow night, and he sprung that he’s not coming. Just not coming. Didn’t tell me, his parents, or the kids.

I haven’t laughed this hard in a minute

Sage advice for troubled times.

I got myself this ring as a “I got through the hardest semester of the program” gift. It’s custom made from a local jeweler I’ve admired for years. It was super affordable and I couldn’t be happier with how it came out 😍🥰

Next semester is going to be a ride 🥲

I got 103% on the lab competency portion of my DNA exam. I’m so proud 🥹 Final grade in that class is my lowest in the program yet, but still high enough to keep me on the Dean’s List so I am super pleased!!
