i love when trans people end up balancing out gender demographics of certain hobbies. trans women bringing female representation to certain gaming spheres, for example, or trans men being into traditionally "female" hobbies. love the idea of trans people inspiring cis kids to pursue their interests

NOW: B52 bombers are literally in the air on their way to Iran and hundreds of thousands of Iranians are in the streets waving flags and surrounding bridges & power plants. Difficult to imagine this has any precedent in modern warfare. (🎥 Al Jazeera)

Waking up to the awe-inspiring images from NASA at the same time the US President is implying that he will commit genocide, I can't think of a better quote for the times than this one from Apollo astronaut Edgar Mitchell. I added it to today's Earthset image:

you know it's a bad day when you think to yourself "god I hope the republicans listen to Tucker Carlson"

it feels like such a massive concession of ground for ppl to be constantly defending "learning" and "gaining experience" as good things. like the teacher is letting their worst student stop the whole class dead every day.

people who want Pokémon games to be voiced are fools who don't know what's best for them. they're a risk to themselves and to others

Pope Leo on Palm Sunday: “This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: ‘Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood’ (Is 1:15).”

im 30 years old and my boss just ruined my day by making us work in pairs. feels like grade school again

I learned that kids on tiktok are calling Helen Keller "a hoax" and keep thinking about it and getting pissed off again

I'd like to say to these people, and this comes from a genuine place of a lesson I myself had to learn: It is all right to have these sorts of thoughts. But they're inside thoughts.

just as I'm really coming around on Timothee Chalamet, the world decides they hate him for wanting to be good at his job. whatever dude

i'm suffering the Millennial's Earworm (i have Nicki's verse in Monster stuck in my head)

sweatin like JK Rowling in a Holocaust museum

are they casting Doechii in animated movies yet? if we're still replacing voice actors with celebrities, she's obviously got it

poor Crusty Gnome

bad news to my enemies. found out the CO detector in my apartment works

sometimes American Pie will come on shuffle and i have to pause for a second like hm... usually i plan an American Pie listen in advance, but... i suppose i can pencil you in Don

This is a really good debate format for like 50 different reasons, but especially at this moment. There's a lot of equivocating over stuff that is not that complicated.

feels like every day in America is a radicalizing moment. my landlord has enabled a third party to send me several emails a month about a "flex rent" service. everyone wants their hands on my fucking money

HAPPY NEW HOURLIES DAY!!!

“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

among men there's an understanding that some men are Rei guys and some men are Asuka guys. I am very open-mindedly excluding Misato from this taxonomy, as Misato is a normal favorite character among all genders, while Rei and Asuka are more like Hogwarts houses for boys. I want to understand this.

one thing I didn't expect was how many times I'd change my opinion on Noam Chomsky in my life

Wildflower was my song of the year too

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year: “As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

The strictly business-brained NFL exec who months ago foresaw the February 2026 vibes and then hired Bad Bunny

I also want it on public record that new Nicki single feat. Erica Kirk is on my 2026 bingo card

hello bluesky. I will be doing hourlies comic today on Feb 8th this year. sometime after I intend to log out and forget my password again. in the meantime, I finished Perfect Tides Station To Station and it was really good and everyone should play it. well I think that's all

Hourly Comics Day has MOVED! It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st! hourlycomicsday.com #hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd

She knew all along…

i need to stop looking at social media. theyre mad about an escalator

It is not our job to determine if resistance is hopeless. It is our duty to render it effective, at all possible points, while we are alive. It is the future that will determine if our efforts were victorious, not the present. To act fully in the present means to never face defeat.

Luigi Mangione will be Time's person of the year if they're not cowards

judging by the rapidity with which this guy shot himself, gonna say suicide was probably at least an equivalent motive to anything else

Mm-hm.

anti-ice

I’m sorry, the message was literally “ANTI-ICE” written in pen?

Silent Hill Feminism bitch

Playing FF Tactics for the first time? Here’s a tip. Go to Mandalia Plain. You’re gonna spend 5 miserable hours having all your characters power up like goku next to a terrified bird or have them throw rocks at each other until they’re max level. This is the best game ever made btw.

Pritzker seems to be the only one warning about this regularly

Trump to the UN: "I'm really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell."

jesus loves me so if i get raptured today just know im going to queer up the place

Per Samba TV analysis, Kirk memorial was watched by mostly old white people

Higurashi is a story about how chill it was to hang out in an air conditioned car in the 80s

Rather than permitting the Trump administration to frighten us out of resisting, we must understand this broad, vague, and performative executive order as an effort to intimidate. It should catalyze us into urgent organizing, not paralyze us. Only collective action can keep us safe and free.

Now that’s what I call a pivot

i think autism is good actually
