Local Cleveland bakery is doing a collab with local Cleveland chocolatier for this Lenten season. After describing the collaboration paczki (a toffee-spiked fudge filling with the classic Malley's colors on top), owner of Rudy's Strudel had this to say:

when it's definitely going the way you thought it would

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

I love when a book comes in from a hold and I get to find out what past me was in the mood for. Just got a book and was like the cover and title is giving fantasy romance but is it wlw or mlm who's to say! Then about 1 page in I'm like ah mlm and yes fantasy 😂

Ryan the last two nights: don't stay up too late watching heated rivalry Kelli & I: yeah no we're going to bed Also Kelli and I: up too late, sending each other heated rivalry content from our quiet beds in the dark

I am so tired...I was so ready to go to bed ...and then I turned on my CPAP and it made a loud noise like something was loose but no...the anti cat bite cover I have on the tubing seemed to have moved in the last 24 hours and Cannoli got holes in it....my boy why do you crave plastic so badly

This is a real text from my friend who works in tech after seeing A Muppet Christmas Carol for the first time last night

I would like to apologize to the person running the boutique I just went to she was very pretty and tall and wearing glitter on her cheeks so I know for sure I was just 👁️👄👁️ the whole time she was talking to me (and she kept talking to me 😭)

This story Carl Nassib told on RC's pod about coming out in the NFL cracked me up. His delivery is so good!

*holding tall curly haired European bisexual sports star Ilya Rozanova in one hand and tall curly haired European bisexual sports star Jean Moreau in the other hand* I love you both and you could never do anything wrong, ever.

Watching a video about soy sauce: so first we leave the soybeans and wheat in a temperature controlled room until we get kōji Ryan and I at the same time: The National Mold

My only contribution to the heated rivalry fandom: Someone should make an edit of Ilya to church of hot addiction by cobra starship "I L Y A gonna get you high" has a lot of potential

„The irony couldn’t be starker: the very programs best equipped to study the social and ethical implications of AI were being defunded, even as the university promoted the use of OpenAI’s products across campus. This isn’t innovation—it’s institutional auto-cannibalism.“

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

1. The anti-trans panic is losing steam, at least when it comes to elections. New polls in battleground races in Virginia and New Jersey show voters prefer Democrats to Republicans on trans issues by double digits. This as centrist groups urge capitulation. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Meanwhile, in South Korea: "Starting at the end of November, public parking lots with more than 80 spaces will be required to install solar power generation facilities. This obligation applies not only to newly constructed parking lots but also to existing ones." cm.asiae.co.kr/en/article/2...

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.

Ideally money, to an existing food bank. I've seen tons of pop-up mutual aid efforts in my small city in the last week. While I applaud the desire to support neighbors in need, imagine navigating dozens of random Facebook posts and email accounts to find food when you need it. Let's make it easy.

The FBI director is flying his girlfriend around on private government planes while FBI agents go without paychecks and families prepare to go hungry as SNAP benefits are being suspended

Another great example of multi-ethnic coalitions: the Southern Tenant Farmers Union (1934-1960), founded in Tyronza, Arkansas. In 1934, there were ~8 million sharecroppers working farmland owned by a landlord. About a third were Black. So when the STFU (yes, really 😉) began organizing...

🎃 happy spooky time 🎃

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high. SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”. Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers. People need & deserve assistance Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich Be mad about that

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Backed by the Heritage Foundation and Big Tech, KOSA will force everyone to upload their ID to access the internet. In an age when Palantir has direct ties to ICE, where technofascists are in power and want to eliminate and censor everything, we CANNOT allow KOSA to pass. It NEEDS mass pushback.

i’ve been trying to figure out who she reminds me of here and it is chungha.

Woke up feeling a bit depressed and now I think I'm getting a migraine aura (my vision is going). Is being sad gonna be a new part of a migraine I don't need that.

I have been stuck in a phan only headspace for a week straight (rip Ryan) but for one moment today nails for breakfast tacks for snacks by patd came on shuffle and my brain went "damn this is so kevjean" Quick respite from the all consuming joyful irl yaoi with truly devastating fictional yaoi

I'm sorry if I am terrible at responding to things or reaching out. I promise you are cool, my mind is just a sieve.

Good morning to me who is trying to explain to all the older people in the office why half the world relying on one web services system is indeed bad especially if said services is from Amazon

I’d say this is damn good reason for Democrats to hold fast to the shutdown until Republicans agree to protect ACA credits.

Canvas, the course management platform used by my university (and many others), has been down all day due to the AWS outage. It has prompted some good discussions about how much critical infrastructure is now outsourced to a few companies.

With the AWS outage, now‘s as good a time as any to post this old strip.

What if AWS US-EAST-1 was just sleepy and wanted a nap tho

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

SANAAAA

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states. Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

The phannouncement has really taken a toll on my productivity I will randomly remember some ancient lore and realize they were together and have to stop what I am doing to laugh or groan or just be wowed.

I think if you make me look at an AI generated image against my will you should have to pay me $1. Every time. And also $10 to your local food pantry. Every time.

you're already seeing & will see more stories about how various attempts at reducing energy use "aren't working," etc -- those are propaganda. this is fantastic
