WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders. Aluminum is an ADJUVANT. It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine. That’s it.

I’m today’s instalment of vanishing Palestinian craft work, I bring you beading. These examples are from Margarita Skinner’s book Palestinian Embroidery Motifs 1850-1950 A Treasury of Stitches.

Just a reminder that Newsom grew up in a rich family, went to school on a baseball scholarship, and immediately found a billionaire to financially back his vineyard. And also he’s related to Nancy Pelosi. He does not know what normal is. He’s completely out of touch and telling you to be “normal”.

oh he looks so cute and happy! 💜

This memorable 2017 quote found its way to life in an event this fall that was part of The Word for World exhibition in London. As part of "Dream Maps: A birthday part for Ursula K. Le Guin," Rain Wu created an edible landscape inspired by Ursula's work.

If you have ever enjoyed or learned from a zine, would you join me in sharing or donating to this GoFundMe, for an artist who is a friend of friends and who is currently incarcerated and facing deportation related to allegedly having and moving some anarchist zines?

If you see your favourite indies, especially those who are wide or avoid Amazon, raise their prices... We all just had two emails in less than 24h: - Smashwords is cutting down its royalty rates, especially at lower price points - Ingramspark is raising most of its printing costs again

I'm sure my followers know this, but I'll say it just in case it breaks containment. When the topic is disability; listen to disabled people. Trans rights? Listen to trans people. Racism/ xenophobia? Listen to BIPOC. Women's issue? Listen to women. Marginalised people KNOW what's best for US.

I've updated this, ignore that I'm in it (I don't know how to make a starter pack w/o my account in it), I added more Gazans who have active gofundme's, so go show them some support (if you're Gazan and have a campaign, just reply and I'll add you!) go.bsky.app/8QuU4fg

Also, I've been struggling to compile this, so if you work at an indie bookstore that will take books direct from authors/any distributor that isn't Ingram or the Big 5, can you please let me know below? I have a small list but would love more!

This is what it looks like when people actually give a damn. It is absolutely possible to say no to the Potter Money, and judging all those audiobook and TV celebrities who don't is extremely justified.

Lithgow saying that a family friend with a trans kid came to him and literally said “please don’t do this” and he did it anyway really gives the game away. they don’t not know

Hey Bluesky, could you help spread the word about my Patreon? My goal for the day is one new patron. Patrons help support my art and my existence. You'll receive positive affirmations from Felmer, etiquette advice from Mothman, & other fun posts. www.patreon.com/jeremycreature

Annual reminder that one nice thing you can do as a coworker is, if you have to write peer reviews, just go ahead and ask your peers what accomplishments they’re proud of this year, and what they want to work on next year. It’ll make your job writing them easier, and help their best work be seen

QRP with your mot popular piece on bsky! Probably this one 👀💦💦

You have the choice to sacrifice trans people. Perhaps it will save you. But you don't get to ask trans people to accept the role as sacrifice. You cannot expect understanding, acceptance, forgiveness, or respect. You made your choice.

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

It’s so sad how many people only care about censorship when it’s “art” and “not porn.” God forbid someone calls you a gooner. Porn is art dumbasses

This is a piece of classic writing advice that I have begun to seriously turn on Don’t kill your darlings. Love and nurture your darlings. Write for your darlings. Recognize when one of them may not be right for the story and gently remove them, but for the most part: fucking INDULGE your darlings

You don't have to kill ALL your darlings, okay?

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

"AI dubs" are dead! We can indeed stop these companies when they try to replace people with stolen slop. The solution is bullying corporations, which is half y'all's hobby anyway so this should be easy.

NBC: "Gaza death toll rises to 70,000 as ceasefire is tested by repeated outbreaks of violence." The death toll is far higher and the attacks continue. Life is treacherous for civilians. Please give to my friend Tasneem so she can feed her children. And to others. ❤️🙏 chuffed.org/project/1587...

The Frozen Horse’s Tale~ concept designs for @realgdt.bsky.social amazing FRANKENSTEIN! In 2022 I started work with Guillermo on keyframes and concepts before production started, including the battlefield frozen horse. Later during production I designed it to be built life size as a prop for filming

These little scale boys really don't need my help in finding a mate, but the way the little guy would climb onto my finger instantly and hop off when I put him next to a female*... 🥹 I love the yearly emergence of these silly Neosteingelia texana scale insects on my maple trees. ♥️🧪

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

600 ICE agents were supposed to be deployed to Canal Street. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered instead. Quick summary by me:

Humans are funny creatures Terrible, we are capable of so many horrors AND We decorate our time with all sorts of celebrations and holidays and fill those with our favorite things They aren't perfect Neither are we And all of it is complicated But what funny little creatures humans can be

I'm literally on my knees begging you to read or watch anything made by queer people for queer people rather than scraping the bottom of the barrel for scraps in things that are overwhelmingly heterosexual. IT WILL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER

Tell your lawmakers to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act- there are better ways to protect kids online without throwing other vulnerable people under the bus. www.stopkosa.com

KOSA will obliterate trans people's ability to have spaces and even communicate online. It MUST be stopped.

A lot of USians and some west europeans are not aware or willing to accept that their countries are the main imperialistic force in the world and that comprises most of the bad political takes we see in this website.

it’s not the scaffolding, it’s the netting. suck less at your job.
