lighting a candle for all trans people to live fucking long lives and get old as fuck and happy and comfortable and satisfied

I have been hunting for Mandarinquats since I first had them in 2023 and finally saw them this weekend at Hmart! 😭 highly recommend if you can get them, eat them whole, skin and seeds and all. Larger and sweeter than normal kumquats.

Oh, I know it's not cost. We don't have universal healthcare because there would be no legal way to make it white-only. White Americans used to love social programs for welfare, health, job training. Then, courts told them they had to share. Been paring it back ever since, even when it hurts them.

Mom bird: ok we're going to be flying for weeks, go to the bathroom now Kid bird: I'm FINE, mom, jeez Invasive plant species seed inside the kid bird: hell yeah one way trip

Hey, if you're represented by Henry Cuellar (TX) Don Davis (NC) Cleo Fields (LA) Laura Gillen (NY) Vicente Gonzalez (TX) Marcy Kaptur (OH) Marie Glusenkamp Perez (WA) Eugene Vindman (VA) Give 'em a jingle and ask why they're voting with Republicans to support HR 2616, the national book ban bill?

Reflecting pool when we visited in 2023 and it was empty of water but little kids were learning how to ride bikes in it. 100x better than blue. I just learned about the Cheese Touch from my son and someone else said this on a podcast and I now agree: 45 has the fuckin Cheese Touch.

like you can't just put the word goop in everything,you just can't, someone should do something

No matter your gender, you have every right to love and to be loved in return🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Expressing that love should never be hindered or questioned. Such a basic human experience has somehow become overly complicated. Let’s come together and restore a world where love can be shown openly and joyfully.

I DON'T understand the intended tone of this Microsoft bus ad. It feels "off" for it to ask a question then answer it in a sort of... passive aggressive way? I mean, thanks for the affordable homes but did Copilot help you with this? How long did you review til you decided to go with this?

I don't know if I can physically be this angry all the time without having a heart attack lol

Something something "decades of depressed wages/growing wealth gap" something something "years of policy and politics from both parties that have subbed subsidized low prices for a fair share of economic growth/prosperity for 80% of Americans" Blah blah chickens coming home to roost

I wrote a short piece about Juniper's memory and the duty all of us have in her passing to build a world where this can't happen anymore. [free to read/no paywall] www.patreon.com/posts/158697...

The particular level of Inferno where the version of Revit (2023) is no longer supported with an easy installer or something (???) so IT has you click "Retry" on a popup every 40 seconds for a few hours and it just gets stuck at 97% Install.

@dansinker.com when I really need that alfajor fix: pampadirect.com Also recommend Palitos de Selva candies and La Yapa (superior Pez without the dispenser) Admittedly have not ordered since tariffs and bullshit, but!

I found one of the notebooks I used to write my very Radar-centric M*A*S*H fanfic in, and boy do you current fanfic writers nowadays have it good 😂 90's: only getting enough internet to know fanfic exists and not knowing how to share it

For the record, this proposal specifically targets gender identity. You have until May 22nd to submit a comment

just: re: some bullshit I've seen on here. if your immediate response to seeing an oppressed minority community mourning a cold-blooded murder of one of their siblings is to lecture them about doing it wrong or not actually being "oppressed enough", you should cut out your tongue.

Office radio just played the Gregory Brother's "It's Corn!" Song and I am vibrating looking for anyone else who noticed so we can laugh

Oh my gosh YES YES SHOW US MORE AAAAAAAH! *Sicko meme but crying because of the cute*

Good point in Trashfuture's May 1 episode: "fascists are bad at running the machines of oppression that they rely on, that liberals build for them." Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn't promise the 'best' benefits to military and then rugpull them while never reducing the 'Defense' budget?

I guess I'm extra frustrated because I can think up all these ideas of how to improve systems with all the data at our disposal, and I've always assumed The World Sucks because implementing those ideas was hard. Well, if it's supposedly so much easier to implement, why world still suck?

Um yes please

😍😍😍 Love this! Back when we connected SDOT to Toronto's DOT in 2022 to import their bike barriers, we also hoped Seattle would emulate Toronto's program of paying artists to decorate them. Looks like it's finally happening!

Yaaaay! Love to see constituents being heard, even when the mayor who is listening was already hearing a lot and doing great, listening to do better is so nice to seeeee

This is going to be achingly relevant, isn't it. 😭

When you should have gone to the bathroom BEFORE the 1-hour long meeting

QRP with the doctor you'd trust leading the hantavirus response instead of RFK Jr.

A must-read, btw

Everyone in every room where AI is discussed positively should react so viscerally! But my GOD especially graduates entering the workforce into this bullshit!!!

john brown basically this

YESSSSSSS

GENIUS

Once upon a time I bought programs that came in a box. I would install them on the computer and there they would stay until I uninstalled them. They worked the same way every day. I didn’t have to worry about some guy in Seattle or San Francisco rearranging the buttons and menus overnight.

One of you 🩷'ed one of my OC development doodles and reminded me I haven't updated about it in a while. Progress has finally been made and I am now in the honeymoon period where the OC is drawn over and over with slight variations til it feels natural & good #otocinclus #OCdevelopment #fishsona

Finding it absolutely impossible to focus today

And this time when they lose we won't let them crawl back into the disgusting hole they hide in. Don't give ANYTHING to racists, fascists, or transphobes. As soon as they show that face, they are OUT and not welcome to ever come back in. WE DO NOT TOLERATE THE INTOLERANT

“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in Copenhagen🇩🇰?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it?’ 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure..bicycling.”~ Morten Kabell

“We’re going to flood the zone. You’re going to see more ICE agents [than] you ever seen before.” The time to get whistles into the hands of your community is right now. We will send you whistles, for free, in quantities of 100-thousands. We do it every day. linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

A limerick. Based on a true story.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

Welp I'm at "walking all the way back to my desk with the oven mitt still on my hand"-level tired.

A message from Mary, a 72-year-old Amazon worker from North Carolina projected onto Jeff Bezos’s $120 million penthouse before tonight’s #MetGala, chaired by Bezos.

That’s the wild thing about AI. There’s never really a sales pitch. It’s just, “It’s here, don’t get left behind.” Every other innovation sells itself — we want them, thus they happen. Here? Not so much. The dangers are high, the value unclear, but rich people want more, so away we go?

MushroomSky, any ideas about these two fun little guys I found at my parent's house? (DID NOT PICK, WILL NOT EAT!) just curious, especially about the velvety black one! Located in a mossy lawn, PNW. More info in alt! #mushrooms

Of all the ways to make a building more interesting - ornament, different materials, artwork - articulation has got to be the worst. Each of the extra corners from the building shifting in and out is a potential leak, and the yellow planes are extra walls that reduce energy efficiency.
