There is a difference between righteous anger, directed at injustice, and hateful anger, directed at those who are different. Authoritarian regimes deliberately conflate the two to silence criticism and create false equivalence. It's important we don't let those in power succeed in this endeavor.

God, how much money did House of Guinness get from Guinness? Every other episode has footage of the brewery that looks like a beer ad.

Abolish ICE.

All I gotta say is that ICE didn't exist until 2003 and was only formed out of pure xenophobia. This is the end result of that xenophobia. ICE needs to be abolished.

PSA: Have anaphylactic allergies? Look for Neffy! It's a needle-free inhaled version of epinephrine, and it's much cheaper, much smaller to carry, more temperature-stable, and has a longer shelf life than an epi-pen does!

BREAKING: Starbucks just announced a $1 billion restructuring and will close 59 unionized stores — nearly 10% of union locations. It includes the Roastery in Seattle, one of its busiest shops. CEO Brian Niccol made $100 million in four months last year.

Shhh let them cook

I think a lot about how if I had tweeted about "Open House on Haunted Hill" one hour later, or if exactly the right people didn't see it and boost it in that moment, it never would have viraled. Without that, the rest of my career probably wouldn't happen. It's that fragile.

Why am i god’s sleepiest baby

okay i have a revision of my dildo horror story and i would like feedback/a beta read from other sf/f writers who are comfy reading explicit material. i will return the favor!

I want to watch a movie length version of “Beautiful Girls” from Singin’ in the Rain

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

my roommate is gonna move with me to the new house, i'm so happy :)

Never mind

You should be thinking about what you'll do to stop this if you see it happening. If you think it through now you'll be more likely to act. On a related note, I recommend carrying pepper spray. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Phew at last I’ve seen the latest Alien: Earth so this show can stop infiltrating my brains (pun intended)

Okay the two big things are: a (likely) 4 month overlap of current lease and mortgage payments which can be solved by a short term renter or subletter; and not knowing for sure what my course load (i.e. income) looks like in the spring.

Here's a thing that's probably right up your Straße, you big mad oddball.x

I think, every so often, about how the student protesters in South Korea figured out there was a finite supply of tear gas, and then staged retreating marches that caused police to burn off most of it, before the big "bring your auntie and kids" marches that ultimately toppled the dictatorship.

Shout out to everyone only now learning that "Albert Einstein was reclusive at the end of his career, shunning public engagements." Really meant, "For the last *20 years* of his career, Einstein opposed US racism by only speaking publicly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

“You used to be able to say anything” comedians never been more quiet in their lives

I'm gonna just say this: if you are a trans person, you need to have other trans people in your life that you can co-regulate with and you need to talk to them more than you talk to Bluesky. This app is a firehose of terror and bad news for us and it's going to tie your amygdala in a damn knot.

Sometimes you just a need a person you can send a wall of text to. 💞

I am wracked with anxiety about house stuff but I keep running the scenarios in my head and it’s all fine (unless the house unexpectedly turns into a money pit) so I think it’s just the uncertainty of like “which scenario will this be?” freaking me out, not that any of them are unworkable.

fr though, i watched too much alien and now i feel suspicious of everything alive

none of these words were in the Bible

Why did i watch alien at night

I think it's important to see her be brave and also how fucking upsetting it is, how upset she is.

Here's Gladys in 1910, when she was four years younger than RR is in their Twilight Zone episode. (Don't check my math; it's usually off.)

The Jeremy Renner app is officially shut down, but me and my fellow Rennerheads still log in through an old .APK to trade obscure lore. We guard Renner secrets that would burn out the very eyes of the uninitiated. #OccultedRennerTruths

okay so i watched Prometheus and then Covenant and now I'm watching Alien: Earth so I guess we're just doing this chronological style!? aliens are very scary you guys

okay y'all tell me what you think of this as a possible relationship truism: People who are safe to repair with don't put up a lot of mysterious and/or never-ending obstacles to repair

the main problem with INDECENT PROPOSAL is that it thinks "for a million dollars, would you or your spouse bang robert redford" is a significant moral dilemma

also clown class is actively bringing more joy into my life, it's all clowns and holes from here on out, folks

upside is I might have a yard/garden soon, so i can dig all the big holes i want

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

I composed this post about 3 min before the end smdh

I can’t believe Danny McBride made it through Alien: Covenant

I’m under contract for a house

Richard Dreyfus says fast fish” in JAWS, you tell me that’s not a MOBY DICK reference

Okay i want to put together a montage of scenes from films showcasing men, dudes, boys, masculinity, etc. like the boat-drinking scene from JAWS or “I’m An Ordinary Man” from My Fair Lady…suggestions?

Why is brooch spelled like that

Cronenberg-esque (EXTREMELY complimentary)

Reminder for authors that one of the Great American Novels was roundly ignored in its time, poorly reviewed and only became a "classic" posthumously, so it's always too early to consider your work a failure youtu.be/cgxaJ4W4q3M

the misinformation is often coming from inside the building: even if you get what feels like a mild case of covid, it is still ripping through internal epithelial cells in organs you really care about like your heart, your brain - and for penis-having people, *your penis*
