Update: more stuff keeps coming up so it'll be another week before I'm back. I would like stuff to stop coming up.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/u... Imagine broadcasting to a trained and heavily armed military that you're actively trying to deploy that you plan to withhold their pay.

dare you to go outside and find a cool stick !!!!! !

electric and insurance bills come due soon. i'd really appreciate your support if you can spare any.

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

Oh no. This is such an enormous loss. Jane Goodall has been a hero of mine since I was a child. She was a relentless advocate for the planet until the day she died. And she always did it with patience and compassion and kindness. We are so lucky to have lived in a time that had her in it.

reminder that Microsoft's Xbox division specifically is on the BDS list; cancel your gamepass bc it's way more expensive but also cancel it in solidarity with Palestine

Far-right Catholics freaking out about the Pope doing normal Pope things will always be entertaining. The Pope blessed some water? Can you even imagine?

Chuck Schumer, the minority senate leader, being almost as unpopular as the fairly historically unpopular executive branch, would be a wake-up call to most good politicians to change. Schumer is more likely to write the American public a sternly-worded letter about why they should like him more.

Gallego: "The president is an idiot. He doesn't actually understand how the military works."

If you must turn 47 and you must be out of town for a conference and solo on your birthday, can I recommend having this image greet you when you walk out of your Airbnb bathroom naked after a shower

tomorrow is the first of Halloween, and I am gonna be sharing a little OC-centric art jam idea for those who would like to draw but don't wanna do a daily challenge or feel overwhelmed 🎃🎃🎃 you can reply to this post if you'd like to be tagged when I put up the prompt! 🎃🎃🎃

A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED: I just unlocked a new level of rage. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

It finally happened. Someone I know personally was detained by ICE while showing up for their schedules TPS check-in. Found myself scrambling to find a legal resource for their family. Luckily I was able to find one here in Chicago. Donate to them if you can. immigrantjustice.org/for-immigran...

Autumn’s natural fireworks start to take over the garden 📷🌱 …

Personally if I was a 5’11” cis woman who had gotten a lot of work done, I wouldn’t devote part of my standup set to bashing trans women

Yeah. There's a difference between "I wish the world wasn't hard on people, like my loved one, who are different" and "I wish my loved one wasn't different so the world won't be hard on them."

Oh man, I just noticed its giant, curved erect dick. So this dick not only has a dick-tail, but also its own smaller dick. Sorry for the omission, alt text peeps.

Like…sometimes the penis has wings, or its own arms & legs, or its own little penis, or is otherwise anthropomorphized or given animal features. This is a wind chime from Pompeii.

The Romans essentially used surprise dick pics as protective magic. Anyone attacking you with the evil eye would get so surprised & distracted by your weird dick necklace, they’d lose focus.

The superintendent they just kidnapped is a former Olympic athlete who runs footraces with the kids from his schools while wearing a maroon suit and a bowtie. This is quite simply about the people in power feeling threatened by Black excellence.

David Axelrod: "We should seek out and listen to opposing views without giving any ground to democracy's erosion." Right wingers: "It is our opposing view that democracy must be forcefully eroded." Axelrod: "Hm. Interesting"

Life is surprisingly busy right now, so while this break is unplanned, I'm going to be taking a break until October 9. If I don't take this time off, I'm going to end up having a really unstable schedule because I've got like... weddings, work, etc., all coming up right now.

Not streaming tonight. I'll be back to my normal schedule soon.

This is extrajudicial execution, without any clear threat to the US, no authorization from Congress, and far beyond even Article II. The military is not the president's personal hit squad. Or wasn't, until now.

I almost forgot to post - we're about to go live with Talos Principle! Live at 12 PM ET on twitch.tv/FormerlyKnow... #girlgamer #twitchstreamer #puzzlegames

did you hate learning about the korean “comfort women” of imperial japan? I have a new group of people for you to be fucking furious at (you might already have been)

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔 on.ft.com/3K05vhS

so charlie kirk was assassinated by exactly the kind of terminally-online channer shithead he tried to foment

i do really think all the people eulogizing a fascist youtuber who made vile statements about anything and everything as a career are severely underestimating how radicalizing it is to people who are otherwise not very invested to see them fall over themselves doing this eulogizing

I have had a very long week and it's not getting shorter, so I'm cancelling the stream tonight. Sorry, y'all. We'll be back on Sunday.

A German teen told Meta's child safety researchers his under-10 little brother had been sexually propositioned multiple times on its VR platform. Meta deleted the evidence. New internal whistleblower docs indicate that was part of a broader cover-up: www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

I don't think the computer trusts us. Going live at 12 PM ET on twitch.tv/FormerlyKnow... #TalosPrinciple #puzzlegames #girlgamer #twitchstreamer

at this point the cheeto man could rebrand the military to "department of suck deez nuts" and I wouldn't even be surprised

it's bandcamp friday today! stream my deep catalog of rap and folk songs (and instrumentals) and buy what you like. today's the day all your money goes directly to the artist, without the site taking its usual 15% fee. it's a great day to support music! thiiirdperson.bandcamp.com

Bodybuilding is just burlesque with a different core audience.

Working in development is just one "how do I elegantly handle this insane data architecture without rebuilding from the ground up" after another.

I am DELIGHTED by this hall cosplay from Dragon*Con! THEY HAVE A PEPPER BAR!

Somebody is throwing things out of a window of the White House wtaf

Happy Labor Eve! Let's solve more puzzles and dig more into this Talos project. Going live at 12 PM ET on twitch.tv/FormerlyKnow... #girlgamer #puzzlegames #talosprinciple

I'm taking the night off - I'm wiped from this very busy week. If you're at Dragon Con, I hope you're having fun, washing your hands, and staying hydrated!

Adam Raine, 16, died from suicide in April after months on ChatGPT discussing plans to end his life. His parents have filed the first known case against OpenAI for wrongful death. Overwhelming at times to work on this story, but here it is. My latest on AI chatbots: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/t...

I could really use a hand with some bills. i wish i had a job by now but i dont. it's up to me to provide for my family and i'm not too proud to ask for help. i'm thiiirdperson on cashapp and venmo. same name on paypal and kofi. you can also buy my music at thiiirdperson.bandcamp.com

I found out my nieces like Labubu when I was asking about Christmas, but my sister prefers gifts of books over stuff, so now I'm just an aunt trying to email @popmartglobal.bsky.social to see if they have it in their heart to reprint The Monsters Trilogy (written by the creator of #Labubu).

this point—that this era is not forever and accountability can come in many forms—has for some reason proved bizarrely elusive for democrats
