Hey, so it's my birthday today--I am 50, officially entering my ✨ BABA YAGA ERA ✨ and so I'm doing a fundraiser over on the Zuckerbook for the Campaign for Southern Equality's Trans Youth Project, to help families harmed by bans on gender-affirming care w/direct financial & logistical aid. Join me?

I was led to believe by R.E.M. that I would feel a lot better about this.

also: Fuck You, Make Me is in fact one of the oldest american traditions out there

THIS IS ILLEGAL. He literally does not have legal authority to do this. Do NOT obey in advance.

Just reading this helps, but don’t JUST read it, please, ok? Ok.

This goes so fucking hard dude

Throwing this out into the ether: I would like Aida cloth recommendations for a new cross stitcher (not working from a kit.) What kind of fabric count do I want? (Sources also welcome!)

If you know someone who may be undocumented, no you fucking don’t.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

DO NOT COMPLY IN ADVANCE

Planet Fitness locations in Los Angeles are “offering anyone impacted by the fires—first responders and residents—free access to shower, recharge, and relax” No membership is required to take advantage of locker rooms, WiFi, charging stations at any LA County location not impacted by the fires.

I just found a copy of Fellowship of the Ring (on ebay) that matches my set. (I loaned it out years ago & i hope it has had a good life.) when I looked for the publisher info I realized the set was a gift from a long-ago coworker & that makes me smile.

The Los Angeles Olympics, generally. As a specific single story I’m not sure u have anything until the Challenger.

This is devastating news that will result in a massive spike in the criminalization of abortion care & pregnancy endings of all kinds. It will lead to an increase in poverty, in being trapped in abuse, in death & Black & Brown women & girls will be harmed & targeted most, as they always are.

Why is it called "coming out" when it could be called "making things crystal queer"

Wishing all trans folks love and joy today, and vengeance for the ones we've lost. And if you hate trans people, fix your hearts or die.

If you see this, post a vampire and pass it on.

@youaregood.bsky.social did you guys kill M Emmet Walsh? I went to look him up while listening to the episode & he died a week ago! 😳

Well it’s mid October & Im scheduled for gov docs stuff all tomorrow afternoon, so naturally I’m baking Doubletree cookies tonight. All I’ll be missing is some soft pretzels.

I just had a personal ILL filled by my childhood public library & I feel all warm & fuzzy inside 😊

RIP, Bob.

Goooooooooool

Up early for the final. I’m glad this’ll be my last early day for this. Now I just need to decide if I cancel the new streaming service or hold onto it through the World Series.

Oh what a shitty way to lose.
