Gonna need you all to put me in more starter packs. All the Irish Culture Geniuses or Hot Literature Guys packs aren't getting these numbers up. Starting today I want in on everything; Korean Biochemists, Gen Z Quantity Surveyors Formula 1 Grandmas. There's no limit. Put me in.

Grace, you’re here! The cover is gorgeous and I’ll preorder today.

Star Wars/Star Trek crossover!

When I and Howard Zinn before me talk about the unexpected, we're mostly talking about things like the fall of the Berlin Wall or 9/11 or the Zapatista uprising. But we can now add to that list INFOWARS SOLD TO CORPORATE OVERLORDS OF THE ONION.

people who use goodreads: jeff bezos owns goodreads and if you want a better alternative there is a black woman owned company called storygraph that you can use to replace it. you can transfer all of your data from goodreads to storygraph and have your mind be free of trumpie jeff bezos! win win. 💙

For the new folks. I'm old and have bad eyes and I need alt text to read your images. There is a flag you can set in your settings that will remind you to use alt text in your images. Please use it.

So I sold this Taylor Swift Midnights inspired dice box the other day, but wanted to take a moment to commemorate the journey Midnights Taylor took on my TikTok page. I’ll be honest, 85% of my TT are mundane this is what I’m working on videos. But that other 15% is gold baby.

Never been more proud of @theonion.com than today. When politicians fail to act, it falls to the artists. There’s no better owner for InfoWars than the world’s greatest satirical media outlet. This is so perfect. Official announcement www.instagram.com/p/DCWsfsxOaE...

This is the energy we all need.

now do mar a lago

Gödel: Fool! Starter Packs are extremely powerful during expansion periods and turmoil. Me: We’re safe as it’s not clear I even understand what I meant as just up from a nap. Can delete later.

One criticism of this place early on was that it was anti-black. One thing you can do to help fight that is in starter packs. I know I have gotten quite a few follows from people adding me to starter packs and I really appreciate it! But if you are making one, please include the black and brown (1)

It’s as good as he keeps saying. Better even.

Any politician who wants to successfully advance their career should look at him and just do the opposite.

Got three silhouette ttrpg dice boxes coming to my shop this weekend. I think they will be stained a dark brown when all is said and done. #dnd www.staffandbranch.com

Listen up: We already had @darthbluesky.bsky.social and @nameshiv.bsky.social, and now we have @aoc.bsky.social too. We are complete. We have ascended. Onward.

Whoo hoo! ❤️❤️❤️

We are all Ella.

A few shots of some Barn Swallow fledglings making their feelings known. #wildlife #birds

It’s important that we remember how to exist under a government that constantly lies about what it’s doing and what it’s capable of doing. Before you react and give the lie further validity in your reaction, pause long enough to understand the truth of the situation and respond to that, not the lie.

I love this story. Also, for anyone who hasn’t yet, read Hildur’s astonishing and spooky Night Guest.

What an entirely new and inventive way to do union busting! (I miss the Spelling Bee desperately, but fuck this.)

“I won’t read a single ‘What the Democrats Did Wrong’ article, and I’ll end any subscription I might have had with the person writing it. The Democrats did nothing wrong. The voters did. They all had access to the same information we had. They chose evil.” —Ramona Grigg substack.com/@ramonagrigg...

He said that “fucking terrorist” part with his whole chest.

One of my favorite memories is of night swimming in Lake Michigan at Nordhouse Dunes, floating on my back and seeing the Milky Way so clearly and feeling so small and hopeful. This work in progress ttrpg dice box will be coming soon! #dnd #spaceart

Cynicism which is counterrevolutionary, producing inaction as a default concession to the status quo.

@markdoyle.bsky.social You were right — I’m dazzled, astonished, and having flashbacks to the terror of Howdy Doody when I was four. Thanks.

Got this space themed ttrpg dice box in my shop right now! Holds about 4 sets of dice as well as some secrets of the universe! Check it out now! #dnd #spaceart www.staffandbranch.com

@flavorflav.bsky.social is here!!!!!!!

As someone who went to the notoriously conservative Hillsdale College (as a queer liberal woman), I feel like I have some special insight into the Heritage Foundation chuds that will soon be running our government. Rule #1: They genuinely do not think people different from themselves are people. 1/

@fuse8.bsky.social Betsy, you have to go!

With great #swifties migration to bluesky I would like to say hello! Also, if any of you are looking for a jewelry box for yourself or a friend, I got this Midnights themed box in my shop. Check it out if you like, and if not welcome all the same! www.staffandbranch.com

There’s work to do.

Well, oof. I do like that guy and his kids seem to too.

Cancelled NYT a few months ago. Just cancelled Washington Post, too. I'd been sticking around out of loyalty to their book review people, but just can't anymore. Feels good.

Hi Pennsylvania friends. I'm a minister. If you or anyone in the LGBTQIA+ wanna get married before January. I will do it for free. No charge.

My senator.

Couple of ttrpg dragon dice boxes coming up! #dnd www.staffandbranch.com

Fuck, rereading these passages is actually the first time since The Day that I’ve started really crying

Yes.Thank you.

As part of the failed Boomer generation, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wish we weren’t leaving you with such a mess, but trust you will do much better than we did. Onward.

Thank you, Kamala Harris, for showing us a vision for this country that was compassionate and hopeful. I wanted, so badly, to believe that someone like you could represent us. I will always be proud to have been a supporter.

give it up for Lexi, y'all

As if we didn't already love Tim Walz and Doug Emhoff ...

it is going to be awesome tomorrow when 937 pundits suddenly come to the totally independent and brilliant conclusion that it was Abortion All Along, Obviously when someone writes the parody song, tag me please

Okay, I’m going to boost this, because if you need a weird, engrossing, hopeful fantasy novel about change right now to distract you, two people today have said they loved Jedediah Berry’s The Naming Song today. :)

absolutely breath-taking selections from the "crap dog photography" facebook group
