Langston Hughes (1943)

Thinking about whoever said that by accepting a meal from people and then arresting them ICE agents broke a cultural taboo that was invented by, like, the first humans to set up a tent

I cannot overstate how scalding this is from Minnesotans. Food is the love language of my entire lineage. When you are from this region and you meet someone, the very first thing you do is offer them food (and coffee). For all of the restaurants to say "nope" is an incredible condemnation.

At @adventurex.bsky.social I gave a talk on creating stories from scratch: from idea to full outline, in 25 minutes, with jokes. Enjoy!

Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.

Catherine O’Hara was the funniest person alive

one of the reasons I think it's hard to believe Catherine O'Hara died is because she was this super rare combination of both poise and chaotic energy and so she didn't seem to have a physical age; she was just oscillating between 40 and 17 and 60 at all times.

At the Alex Pretti memorial this afternoon, people are unfurling four very large banners. They read, "How many more will ICE murder? How many more funerals? How many more...how many more?"

sorry i just think if you're spending your time trying to ban books or strip libraries of funding or attacking kids reading then you are a loser who needs to GET A LIFE

Armored Lady Painting study

banning X is a national security issue for every country, plain and simple its explicit goal is to amplify and empower the largest Nazi-adjacent party in every country in which it operates it is also the largest deepfake porn generator in the world this is not a difficult call to make

“why do people use works of fiction to illustrate the evils of fascism instead of real life history” idk dude everyone’s been so under-taught and over-propagandized to that sometimes the only way for the truth to sneak in is with the shroud of fiction

sign in loring park - “NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE US - WE HAVE TO SAVE EACH OTHER - NO MAGA - NO ICE”

abolish ice is the moderate position to be honest. whichever candidate promises to nuremberg the ice agents has my vote at this point

"If you’re still looking for a New Year’s resolution, 'read more books' could well be good for national morale." —Brittany Allen, @literaryhub.bsky.social lithub.com/in-2025-most...

On my annual winter e-break I came to the conclusion that basically every facet of our lives has gotten worse because a majority of people now primarily "live" online and thus only experience the world in the abstract. The loudest voices online/in culture aren't actually living real lives anymore.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

staying with my family in North Yorkshire; I ordered a matcha latte at the café, and when I brought it to the table they all gathered around curiously to look at it

Today, we remember the women murdered at the University of Montreal on December 6, 1989 for having the audacity to be women in an Engineering program. We see and remember their names.

butler's recent book, Who's Afraid of Gender, completely called this shit. essential read.

I've been grinding and working my ass off for months, ignoring these weird, obsessive, unwell men, and they STILL continuously center me in their content. "Not feeding the trolls" doesn't do anything. What will stop them is making rage bait and harassment campaigns no longer financially viable.

socialism + rizz is a tough combo to beat

plugging the board game store in tinseltown, my favourite and most cursed mall across the street from my home honestly the mall could be 90% empty but as long as it, the cat cafe, bali thai and the movie theatre are still running i'll keep stanning

Over 600 Vancouver residents signed up to speak about the city’s 2026 draft austerity budget, but we still need your voice! Sign our open letter urging council to protect public health, climate resilience, and essential services. Deadline: Sunday EOD.

naturally, the forecast changed suddenly overnight and it stopped raining the morning of Cowboy’s birthday for our annual pier walk magical creature. happy 6th birthday

Logging on for six to eight hours of video meetings every weekday

Nan Gregory, an older Point Grey resident, voiced what she wants her city to be. She’s opposed to the proposed property tax freeze, as all speakers so far have been.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR #art

If you evade suffering you also evade the chance of joy. Pleasure you may get, or pleasures, but you will not be fulfilled. You will not know what it is to come home.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

shitfaced jamaal bowman saying this is so fuckin funny i feel so seen right now

I do think a big compelling part of the fantasy of RPGs is “it is possible to understand and deploy a coherent model of how people will react to me”

I could be someone's aloof wife quietly doing their campaign design from behind the scenes.

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name. The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

Who has a blue hoodie, a cold, wet, little nose, and just got an 8 out of 10 in the brand new issue of @edgemagazine.bsky.social? STRAY CHILDREN DOES! "The path may be uncompromising, yet there's a truth in the notion that the right choice of words can make someone open up." Thank you, Edge!

Today, a coalition of seven charitable foundations announced the launch of the Literary Arts Fund, a historic philanthropic investment of at least $50 million to strengthen the nonprofit literary arts field in the U.S.
