This is why we encourage everyone using Patreon not to use the i0s app. Use the desktop, use the mobile desktop. Just don’t use the app. Thankfully even if you have an iPhone - you don’t have to use the app at all.

I'm begging you not to use apple products. This shit is devastating to creators like me

Yeah, I recommend not using the patreon apple app to join. Just go on the website, it's 1. cheaper for YOU to support your favorite creatures and 2. All the money you give goes to the creator.

The way some naturists talk about clothes, you’d think it never froze outside, or fuel was free, plentiful snd had no environmental impact.

Talking to the fancy doctor today, who is a Romney type(?) and he's fucking _done_ with Trump over RFK. He had two super high-scoring NIH grants that failed the "komissar review" and then quipped that my blood tests say my "humors are well balanced"

I was not vaccinated as a child because of a parent’s religious beliefs and I was never told. I only found out because the college I went to required proof of vaccination to live in the dorms. If a person is medically capable of getting vaccinated, they should be. Full stop.

For decades, the US has benefited enormously, because we all trusted the US as the benevolent hegemon, but idiot Trump has ended that trust. Then the many questions arise from Europe: 1. Should we accept the dominance of poisonous US social networks? No! Laws are needed! /1

@nfn-blootgewoon.bsky.social sent me an email alerting me to their new newsletter, but, uhm, it raised a few questions. 1. While the choice of Brevo is at least not an American platform, why choose one knowing that it restricts nudity? What makes it worth making that choice?

“Parents should absolutely have the right to choose not to vaccinate” is not a pro-vaccine position. It’s the MAHA premise. It treats children as objects of parental choice rather than persons with independent claims to health.

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota. people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.

my biggest nightmare is that I won’t be looking at my phone when It Happens

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

🚨 call to defend Trans kids and keep their healthcare intact! 👇🏻

If you’re a healthcare provider who cares for trans kids, a parent of trans kids, a trans or GNC adult - or any of those categories, but for intersex people - Matthew has an important guide for submitting comments opposing the proposed ban on gender-affirming care for minors

There MUST be accountability.

I would say genai is like micro plastics. Yeah, it's in everything but that doesn't mean you should grab a spoon and go to town on a big bowl of them like they were dippin dots.

Anne Hidalgo's positive impact on Parisian public space has been huge. But the ultimate significance of her leadership on mobility justice is global: demonstrating what is possible really highlights the commitment of other mayors to convenience for car owners at the expense of everyone else.

You don't want to give any of these people a penny of your money ever again.

I'm finally starting to come up with a script for how to handle questions about this in the media. How does this sound? 1. Never ever volunteer that naturism is not about sex when no one asks. 2. When an interviewer does ask, ask them "What do you think?" Throw it back into their face.

It's astonishing to see this angry art of mine kinda blow up. All I can say is: donate to mutual aid funds, invest in your community, call your reps, and look out for your neighbors if you can. The real work is not online.

The thing about this kind of mass sincerity and earnestness on the part of all these brave people hitting the streets in Minnesota and everywhere else is that it's going to make disingenuous lizards like Newsom look unfit for the times. Heaven help us if the party doesn't match this energy.

I've had this on my desktop for who knows how long and forgot all about it until I was trying to do some digital tidying this morning.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

mstdn.ca/@adam/115946... With #meta blocking stories about the protests and strike in #Minnessota, it is a reminder of why platforms like the fediverse are important. This is a video of the clergy protest at the MSP airport today, passed along by a colleague, at which 97 clergy were arrested.

Today I learned “Norwegian Christian laws forbade citizens from conversing with and interacting with trolls, and in documents dating from 1274 to 1781, doing so would result in severe punishment” (source: Wikipedia), and I kinda think many people nowadays would be better off if this law was revived

I have a U.S. phone and a Brazil one. TikTok is on both. Only the U.S. version has a new TOS pop up to keep using it. I feel like they set up a giant mouse trap for general citizens and the new owners of the U.S. version of TikTok are going to exploit it in every way they can to suppress dissent.

I'm broadly in agreement; however, safety first. If it's not safe for you to show your face, don't. We'll understand.

some smart alecks are going to try to say this is “just an edgy joke" and then I'm going to have to trot out the statistics on conservative politicians and church leaders committing sex crimes against children again. These people are telling you exactly what they are.

If you put on a collar because you wanted a quiet life of Sunday services and being called "Reverend," that's not what you signed up for. You signed up to follow a man who was executed by the state and told you it might cost you everything. www.patreon.com/posts/148959...

The shingles vax was unaffordably expensive for me at the time, which is its own problem (it should be free. All of them should be free). And now I'd have to go off my meds for like a year before I could get it. But at least MMR got done.

I found out a few years ago that there was no MMR in my vaccination records, so last year, I got one. Should have got the shingles vax as well. I had come off methotrexate for arthritis and would go on leflunomide for the same thing a few months later. So now is not a great time to get shingles vax.
