Random Fact Apparently, Moths aren’t *technically* attracted to flames (candles, lampposts, etc …) They are apparently trying to navigate in a relatively straight line by using the *Moon* as a reference (384,400 km away) … Non-Moon light sources interfere with their navigation “algorithm”

Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

Seriously

It's not hyperbole

*grabby hands*

hard to really wrap your head around the amount of time and resources the federal government has put into torturing this one random guy over the last nine months

Yay! One of my fav legends 💀🐴

I usually renew my National Parks Pass in December anyway, but if you buy a 2025 pass this month, it is valid until the end of December 2026 and has a significantly more attractive Roseate Spoonbill.

It's been impossible for me to get work lately. Between health issues and being removed from the main app i use for work. I need help constantly right now ♥️ www.paypal.me/marlahsmith Venmo: @Marla-Smith-79 cash.app/$marlahsmith #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #TransCrowdfund #HelpSky

@thekavernacle.bsky.social consistently holds the line on progressive prinicples and accountability. (Which sadly doesnt always happen with some other leftist content creators)

It took so long for Diaa to have a stable account on here to share and she’s really trying to provide for her children to go back to school ❤️

Re: Irish politicians (won't pass the Occupied Territories Bill) vs Irish people -

Hey look, it's humans always having been humans, which is why the fight for basic human rights can never stop and is never "solved". There's always some asshole waiting in the wings with exploitation, suffering, and zero accountability.

lol lmao even

The video of this could be a tutorial for how to look like a completely inept jackass.

It's almost like JKR is riddled with transphobia (the ideal growth environment for toxic mold) and doesn't actually give a shit about "protecting women".

GenAI being fundamentally based on a rejection of consent is obvious, but it's not as obvious that it destroys the inhibitions of the people who already reject consent. It makes them act in public the way they used to only act when cornering their employees by the punch bowl or in their office

Where are the downsides? (Hint: None)

Many people around the planet are bilingual, trilingual or multilingual. An example close at hand is Luxembourg, where trilingualism is standard and having 5 fluent languages is not unusual. The chronic monolingualism of the English cripples that nation. Narrow-mindedness is a disability.

oh and I unintentionally launched another career path I was avoiding, if anyone needs social media automation, cross-posting/listing, any other tooling, I'm your gal! HIRE ME

Sam Altman: hey I made a machine that stole literally all your stuff in order to make CSAM of your child actors, sometimes it encourages people to kill themselves Disney: Holy shit here's a billion dollars Altman: the machine loses more than that each week but thank you. Soon it will become god.

You too should bookmark this thread 😻

"if you want to play the harry potter game you should pirate it instead" or, and hear me out, you could have some goddamn self respect and play any one of the near-infinite number of other games that exist instead. but what do I know? I'm just an attractive genius who's better than you.

"You shouldn't make art for the money" buddy I'll take it one step further and say we shouldn't have to labor for capital at all but in the meantime pay an artist

Yo! Way ahead of you with the fuck Liam Neeson campaign 😅

Bluesky staff sitting silently around a whiteboard that reads "make it fun for Mark Cuban - HOW?"

Since this is going viral, hi. I track ICE flights. Here’s my latest, about the Avelo fiasco, in @prospect.org: prospect.org/2025/11/17/i... Here’s my third-country removal tracker: hardghistory.ghost.io/tracking-all...

I’ve heard from immigration attorneys that clients say ICE guards lay out the WRAP device (essentially a full-body straitjacket) on the tarmac as a threat — “do what we say or you’re getting the WRAP on the whole flight.” And here’s proof, from Seattle livestream today via @lalabote.bsky.social.

They lied. No surprise, but good for Inside Medicine for getting ahold of this memo. As has been shown repeatedly, the risks of Covid are much greater than the risks of the Covid vax, including for kids

Everyone like to blame parenting but I have a theory that a large number of teachers are struggling because they need to transition from authoritarian classroom management to authoritative classroom management and either refuse or don’t know how to

A lot to unpack here about class, gender, and caring work 19thnews.org/2025/12/ice-...

Trump sent Vance there twice. He threatened to cut off all federal spending to the state. He vowed to back primary challengers of any Republican who voted against him here. He posted their names online, prompting his fans to send them death threats. But all that failed, so now he wasn't involved.

Hey can Mr. Beast's next bullshit challenge video feature all the billionaires living on minimum wage until they agree to fund universal healthcare?

When people like Mark Cuban speak to us this way, it's a threat. Yes he's a delusional fool, but it's a threat. He is threatening us. "If you continue to demand I pay slightly more in taxes on my billions I've made off your backs, I'll make sure things get worse for you."

[man dying of preventable illness with expensive treatment] mark cuban, smugly: RU okay seeing a primary care doctor first ??

Yes, Mark Cuban. I am absofuckinglutely okay with the government taxing your ass 90% to pay for my next-door neighbor's cancer treatment. In fact, I would prefer they tax your ass even more than that.

i don't care what mark cuban is saying now and i won't care what he says when he's up against the wall. just meat noises from a body who's soul is already in hell.

PERSON: I’d really like not to die early and think getting good health care would be nice MARK CUBAN: ARE YOU PREPARED FOR THE TOTAL SHITSTORM THIS WOULD PRODUCE? HAVE YOU CONTEMPLATED THE HORROR OF YOUR DESIRE FOR HEALTH, YOU PEASANT

Yeah dude it would be awful if rich people could afford medical care that real people can't, only an absolutely evil country would allow a system like that and only morally bankrupt cretins would defend it.

I'm raising money for our Black Zine Fair coming next May. We don't charge exhibitors or participants and would love to keep it accessible in this way. Please consider a donation if you are able. gogetfunding.com/black-zine-f... - I would be so happy to be 50% to our goal by the end of the year.
