I earned my #GCIH credential today, the last cert in the cybersecurity scholarship. 🎊 Now I gotta find me a job! 🙏🏼🤞🏼🍀

For our family, we don't celebrate this month's holiday. It's actually very easy to abstain.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Cleaning up my office & took down this pic Zo made for me. I never looked at the back when I hung it with a pushpin in my office a few wks ago. Lovely note, still has me choked up. We lost their dad to cancer when Zo was 3, so that's the "alone" part. Lucky to have this kid, for sure. ❤️

Everyday is #Caturday! TGIF from me and Kiki, who has yet to catch a Roku leaf, despite trying every chance she gets. ❤️

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

One thing that we all have seen is that you can be a busy, important person and STILL use alt text on your images. IDC if it's a staffer doing it or what, but it's important to provide context, details, and accessibilty. We can all follow suit. 🙏🏼 Congratulations to Mayor-elect Mamdani. 🎊❤️

roses are red big laughs are hearty

The Ctr for Urban Research at @thegraduatecenter.bsky.social (led by @jomoko.bsky.social) has prepared an online map for tonight's NYC mayoral results. Link below in #thread. For now the map is blank, but it'll fill in w/unofficial returns tonight. The map will do more than show the 2025 #s. 1/n

My youngest came out as gender fluid and now goes by they/them. Was worried that I would not be ok with it. I've only ever modeled acceptance, so if my kid who lives with me is worried, it's no wonder that other children in less accepting situations might also be.

Got tired of reading the news and getting mad. Feeding America backs 200+ food banks around the country and I've seeded with $500 for now. I'll match up to another $500 myself. Pass the hat, RTs graciously appreciated, etc.

For those in Indiana, here are some food resources, listed by county or city. #FoodInsecurity #SNAP #GovtShutdown🧵

#Caturday everyday, with Kiki, invader of personal space. I love her so! ❤️

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

Todays tee, apropos of nothing. 🤭

Love seeing the #NoKings images being shared but all y'all not adding alt text can and should do better.

Every day is shut the fuck up Friday and more than ever do not post your alleged crimes or anything that can be perceived or twisted into a perceived actionable threat, no matter how fantastical

I'm watching Good Cop/ Bad cop and I really like it so far. This song is featured in two different scenes (ep 3) and it's too good not to share. ❤️ music.youtube.com/watch?v=WKyy...

Today is the 10th anniversary of my husband's death. It feels both like yesterday and like, well, 10 years have passed. It all comes out the same. I just miss him. 💔 The best way to sum up my grief is simply this: Time is not a healer. Sending love & light to all the grievers out there. ❤️🙏🏼🕊️

My step-mother died today. I don't really feel anything bc we all fell out ages ago.They're very MAGA, racist, and homophobic which is not great on a regular day, but esp w 3 of my kids in the rainbow. But, my oldest girl loves them anyway, and is sad. And Friday is my husband's death day.

Hi Aaron, a thread. The bot was not a harassment bot. You were ignoring a community that was rightfully upset and trying to get information about the job you are doing. I used the protocol and the platform to build a bot that simply showed what you were doing on the network. yes, if you posted...

Everyone should go buy trans books before I get disappeared for bringing up the Trust and Safety gooning incident.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Like a dumbo I played LinkedIn games yesterday just to see what they were about. Today, some rando dude I've spoken to once, when we connected, back in 2021, "nudges" me to play a game. GTFO. We're no longer connected. I just cannot with people.

I've noticed a lot of users are interested in joining some iteration of "resistance" to oppose fascists. Allow me to outline some first steps: 1. Cite your sources. And when someone asks you to, or when someone sources your claim for you, say thanks. Fascists survive on mis- and dis-information.

Let’s say the Democrats were successful in throwing the trans community under the bus & it won them the election… …then what? Will everything be better once we’ve sold them out? Will you be better neighbors and fight for their rights? No, you won’t. And that’s why the “moral purity” stuff is BS.

Summers in my teens, our town theater had this promo where you'd buy a pack of tickets & you could see w/e movie on the ticket. Mom dropped me off one day & I saw Legal Eagles, by myself (too young too, lol). A movie I loved then, love now. Deeply saddened by the passing of Robert Redford. 🙏🏼🕊️❤️

We're making our own mats for the front porch now. Figure we'll do something for every season. We're white, so probably not an issue, but you never know. At least anyone who stops by will know where we stand. #ComeBackWithAWarrant #Resist #FuckICE

Interesting event next week, The Artificial Unintelligence Conference. Here's the link: www.unintelligence.ai. I know a lot of folx here hate AI, so please, if this is not your cup of tea, be blessed and just keep scrolling. 🙏🏼 #AI #GlobalConfererence #Free

The conversation we’re not ready to have yet is that having empathy for a white supremacist is part of what upholds white supremacy. And by that measure alone, it fails to be empathy at all.
