There's a "is anyone even reading this" sort of honesty you get in the software update release notes from a project that's been around for a long time.

There's an outage happening which manifests as me seeing push notifications from people (asking for help) but then unable to see the posts in the app. For other people, this shows up as disappearing posts and likes and so on. We're working on it!

don't want to exist. #pain #sadface

“This fate, is worse than death, condemned to live out existence in a vessel incapable of sustaining my true glory. How am I to function with such limitation?” - Illyria

idea: what if the people with the most power just *helped* other people instead of hurting them i think that one weird trick could fix a lot of things and we should try it for a few months or even centuries

Lots of takes saying it's only a letter on a document and having it not match is of no real consequence. I was detained by USA Customs, had my passport seized and detained for hours for questioning cos my letter didn't match my presentation. While Obama was prez. It's not simply a letter

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

Of course isn’t just driving. It’s voting. Working. Travelling. Picking up a package. Applying for credit. Applying for a job. Renting a room. Filling prescriptions. Visiting loved ones in the hospital. Not expired either, but legally invalid.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Explosion in Kharkiv ‼️ our city is under russian missile attack right now ‼️

Before the war, Gaza was the most densely populated area in the world, with over two million people in 360 square kilometers. Today, the same number lives in a third of that space,surrounded by rubble and waste!!! Disease and hunger are spreading strangely, and the situation gets worse every day.

I know NI funds the NHS but please understand the sentiment: this is what I pay my taxes for!! I hope she gets everything she needs and more www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Update on how many jobs there actually are for disabled people in the UK. According to the DWP, which is pushing them into work. All Jobs: 111,317 Fully Remote: 666 Of which are disability confident: 71 Of which are part-time: 5 Note: all of these jobs require specialist training/ experience

i’ll get a job when you can find one i can physically do within my energy limits and also that would be okay with me needing time off for migraines between 7 - 25 days a month and also can happen literally any time & also happen more frequently with stress which would increase tenfold with work

It happened! I became an asteroid!

To counteract the SOTU vibes….can I tell you about some shenanigans currently happening in my building that have nothing to do with the HVAC?

Alerts are flowing from Rubin Observatory! There will be a proper press release in the coming hours, please see all the details then, and meanwhile, your favorite alert broker probably has public data available to peruse *now*! We are up to well over 20k alerts after 20 min on sky 🔭

most of the people who are against puberty blockers or other forms of gender-affirming care for trans minors are not against these treatments for non-trans minors, suggesting it is not the risks but the idea of conformity to their comfortable norms that is at issue

I wonder exactly how many beings there are within this frame, unaware that on Monday their worlds formed a nice little line with a row of trees near Kamas, Utah.

Russian Strikes on Kyiv Captured from Space Footage from the International Space Station shows the massive overnight bombardment of Ukraine on December 27: ballistic missiles streaking through the sky, flashes from impacts

I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across. If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers. If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.

You live in a time when you can see on your phone high-res photos taken over the weekend by a nuclear-powered rover on Mars.

On February 24, 2022, it was early morning when we woke up to the sounds of explosions. At first, there was no panic, just a kind of shock, a strange slowness. We couldn’t comprehend that russia had attacked us. We didn’t understand what was happening and simply didn’t know what to do.

More than 30,000 tents in Gaza are flooding right now, just before suhoor during Ramadan. The situation is catastrophic beyond words!!!!

The tents in Gaza are flooding at this very moment. The worn out tents are filled with rainwater and sewage. The situation is extremely dire. Tents are not homes they are like graves above the ground. No one is talking about what is happening here!!

Four years ago today, we went to bed only to wake to the sound of explosions the first many of us had ever heard. We woke up to war. ​Since then, the war has been with us every second. No one is truly safe, no one is okay, and the future remains uncertain. Even when we laugh,

More explosions in Kharkiv‼️ There was 6 or 7 already. Fuck russia ‼️

There are millions of children suffering #Longcovid globally. This includes neurological, heart and lung damage. It’s not just fatigue. Never has a generation been more abandoned by their governments than this one.

The blizzard canceled all flights to New York so my week of neurosurgery, neurology, endocrinology care is gone This while online medical advice for worse neurologic symptoms I’m having says to seek urgent medical attention — but no neurosurgeon in Iowa will help me www.gofundme.com/f/help-emily...

“Yes, please be careful. There was a terrible virus on a company ship and we all nearly died and SecUnit’s brain was compromised.” SecUnit’s brain is always compromised, ART said.

something abled people don't get is you can have just one day a week where you are too sick to work, and that's enough to disqualify you from nearly all full-time jobs. it doesn't take a lot

Ukraine is under russian missiles attack right now‼️ 4:35 AM

Russian Tu-95MS bombers takeoff reported by monitoring channels. ​missiles are expected to reach our airspace by morning. Once again, we are in for a dreadful night of waiting for missiles while being haunted by drones. Once again, we play this deadly lottery. All of this could have been prevented

Fire, defiant growth, snow, and starlight.

Tragedy in Sumy region: A Russian drone struck an ambulance, killing four people‼️ Among the victims were two brothers—one just 17 years old—and a married couple. The woman was a medic.

More than 400 types of medicine are missing,and the children are the ones paying the price. Israel allows Coca-Cola to enter but blocks medicines and medical equipment! Sick children cry without treatment, and the pain grows every day. The world must speak out and see what is happening in Gaza.

When governments ignore all legal avenues of dissent, maybe “progressives” will finally realize that direct action, community organizing, mutual aid, and caring for/protecting your most vulnerable neighbours first and foremost is the only way forward. There’s no voting our way out of where we are.

No. And do you know why? Because COVID-19 hasn’t disappeared either. It’s chewing us slowly like gum until we run out of flavour. And yet I see meeting after meeting with no masks being worn, except the entirely transparent mask of “normality”.

torso feels like a punching bag. #pain #sadface

Explosion in Kharkiv ‼️ our city is under russian drone attack right now ‼️

Boosting this for the wonderful @emilyrj.bsky.social ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹

a trans woman i know is being deported back to the USA due to the Home Office messing up paperwork. her wife is desperately trying to raise the funds to prevent this. they have 48 hours before she’s put on a plane and might never be able to return. please, help if you can. they’re both terrified.

No matter how much I try to explain, you cannot imagine how harsh things are here. Children walk through the streets holding empty plates, running after any voice that says there might be food!!!

Explosion in Kharkiv ‼️ our city is under russian missile attack right now ‼️

May your days be filled with napping and your nights filled with the electric hum of old magic through ancient forests and the harsh, fearful screaming of those who meant to do you harm.

feels like being kicked in the head repeatedly. #pain #sadface
