I had The Bionicle Dream again and am waiting to play a new Metroid Prime game. Welcome back, 2002

gesundheit!

gentle reminder that just because something you made didn't make a "best of" "year end" list doesn't mean you didn't make anything important in 2025

Damn do I love the USGS Bird Banding Lab I saw this American Oystercatcher with a green band on Thanksgiving, on a beach in Hilton Head, South Carolina. I reported it to USGS, and they emailed me to say the bird was banded as an adult in Wrightsville Beach (NC) in 2015. It's at least 11 years old!

Yolo often stands with his little back toes crossed, which I find ridiculously cute! You can see vultures don't have bulky feet and talons built for grasping/carrying like other raptors. Their more chicken-like feet are meant for bracing on food to pull at it with their powerful beaks, instead.

if I’m being honest, I’m not too convinced that THIS is the most wonderful time of the year

We are all drunk raccoons passed out on God’s public bathroom floor

“Every choice we make is one that can support the joyful blossoming of life, that can bring us deeper into love and connection or farther from it… We must choose life, every day. Every policy…Every effort. Which doesn't mean that it's easy. Only that it's the most important thing in the world.”

have anyone else’s kids weaponized 6-7 against each other? or is that only happening here 😅

drove past a coffee shop with a letterboard that says “baby it’s lukewarm outside!” 🥲

tboy swag all used up. all ive got is tboy just getting by right now

being ruled by tiny men bereft of both curiosity and the ability to feel wonder is a terrible fate

was playing a video game with 10yo and they were saying we were cooked. I asked later how cooked we really were and they said “eh, not too much.” so I said, “Ah, okay. Medium rare!” and I thought this was very funny, but it only earned me a “BRUH” in response 😁

so fucking tired of people saying AI "democratizes" creative skills, it's fucking privatizing it you dumb fuck, they're stealing your creativity from you and selling it back to you at a premium the ability to draw and write and sing and fucking whatever else came free with your fucking humanity

Three evenings ago I read an article about using ice packs on the forehead to help beat insomnia. The original study was from 2011 IIRC. Apparently if you drop the temperature of your frontal lobe by a degree or so you trigger a cascade of sleepy time metabolic events.

So what DOES make you sleepy on Thanksgiving? Odds are good that it's CO₂, especially if you're cooking with gas. I've seen our indoor air CO₂ spike just over 3,000ppm on Thanksgiving. All the people plus all the gas cooking, it adds up.

earlier my spouse (full-time employee) told me (full-time parent/caregiver/educator at home) “you’re doing all the real work around here, I just ~work~” and it was very nice and validating, I keep thinking about it 🥺

trans people seem to be freely entering and leaving womanhood and that really pisses off the people who want womanhood to be a cage

would anyone like a Woodland Warden card this evening? gonna be here reading for a minute -

uhhhh so I learned something you can do in City Trial (Kirby Air Riders) after you’ve completed the story mode at least once

Never not a good time to post old watercolor bug doodles

Ever just wake up on the wrong side of the bed and a photographer is standing there with a long lens (Great Blue Heron)

I wish I could be less aware of my sciatic nerves 😔 would be nice if they could just do their own thing in there!

Weddell seal pups can be curious if you’re sitting next to them quietly. Here, we were collecting a scat sample and the little one leaned a bit closer to see what I was doing. Permit # ACA 2025-010, AMLR LARUE2025 🧪🌎🦑🦊

omgggg I just played my first online match of Kirby Air Riders AND got Dragoon for the first time. what a rush!!

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics. It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT. It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse. Transgender care saves lives.

marriage is really all about picking up the same vocal stims as your partner

benefits of transitioning: looking in the mirror and saying “hell yeah” 3+ times a day

happy whatever the fuck day it is

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

the thing about holidays coming up is that, I am at my capacity already actually! my plate is full! no thank you!!! (but then there will still be holidays anyway)

What I’ve been trying to point out for years now is that there is a money maker behind this sentiment, invested in it staying set this way. You can’t have billion dollar industry forcing autistic children to mask without scaring everyone about autism first

It's the time of year again -- time to do your holiday shopping from independent artists. It's more important than ever to support people actually making stuff! If you're an artist or craftsperson of any kind, please reply to this with what you make and a link to your store and I'll share it!

they should invent a processing + reintegration of previously suppressed emotions that *doesn’t* feel like you’re actively dying! 🤠

I cannot stop thinking about this 😭 just so, so transparently a grift

Pleased to announce that I have won the game of Kirby Air Riders (I unlocked Rick and the cowboy hat)

Late, but I wanted to jump in on this trend. While I love Fieren, I am deeply inspired by how brave this person was! They went for the hard thing, were curious, made us all rejoice and draw together! It makes me so happy to see folks gain that artistic curiosity! So go forth! Rooting for you! 💖
