My weekend plans did not involve becoming the proud mother of a baby magpie but anyway here I am.

In Seattle, organizers are warning of a growing crisis as more and more trans refugees seek to escape red states. Mutual aid networks of "broke trans people helping broke trans people" are being overwhelmed, and one organizer @evanurquhart.bsky.social spoke with is facing eviction herself.

And an article that you might be intereted in reading today: Why is RFK Jr. attacking vaccines? The answer is not what you think. We need radical transparency in how Kennedy’s Department of Health and Human Services is being managed. • www.ms.now/opinion/rfk-...

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

Block this shit if you haven't already

There is no safety without a certain degree of freedom, and there is no freedom without a certain degree of safety. A man standing in a minefield is not free any more than a man under tyranny is safe. Whoever trades all of one for any amount of the other loses both.

Is there a more tiresome sort of person than the one who outwardly professes to be leftist, but their professed values don't even reach as far as the ballot box, who then throws a tantrum when confronted over it?

If I didn't have an anxiety disorder this would basically be my fursona

Sorry, this should read, “that money is now going to corporations AND CHURCHES” * To the degree that i do not see these churches putting that money back into services for their communities, i need that money to be called what it is, and to be TAXABLE.

If releasing your tax returns and the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency must end. It’s that simple.

We’re talking about a man whose company was convicted of criminal tax fraud.

This reminds me of how I made the logo for a game called Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes for a friend. The game made millions. Years later, I was offered $1000. 💀

Mainstream media need to get a damn clue, as I wrote this week.

🎨 I liked this so much I had to draw it

the FCC wants to make trans existence in television “explicit” and require warnings the House is trying to ban all books by or about trans people — right now — YOU SEE WHAT’S HAPPENING RIGHT?? C A L L Y O U R R E P S ~please!~

Hi, I'm Julie! After losing my job I moved from North Carolina to be safe in Oregon because I am trans. I am raising money to finish the move. Please share and donate if you can gofund.me/60b1e917 #helpsky #fundsky #MutualAid #MutualAidrequest

Doing my chores...

Thing 1: “Have we caught any yet?” Thing 2: “No!” Thing 3: “And you set out the water?” Thing 2: “Yes!” Thing 1: “Don’t they like … need that to literally stay alive?” Thing 2: “YES!” Thing 3: “And still … no takers?” Thing 2: “NO!” (This is clearly a poorly baited human trap)

“it’s time we change the equation” is pretty dang good tbh

"All in!"

Here is a very important video of an otter having his head stroked.

I like to think that James named the team after his son and not the other way around. #art #StarFox

Many fall in the face of chaos, but not this one. Not today. #pcgamer #pcgaming #darkestdungeon

If I were to talk about my #fantasy #worldbuilding stuff for my #pathfinder setting, would anyone be interested?

👍👍👍

WE DON'T NEED PETROLEUM-BASED PLASTICS ANYMORE! "The [bamboo plastic] outperforms most commercial plastics and bioplastics in mechanical and thermo-mechanical metrics while maintaining full biodegradability in soil within 50 days and closed-loop recyclability with 90% retained strength."

i am really sick of the anti-sex attitude in fandom in general. "gooner art style", "this is for gooners", "the gooners will ruin this" PLEASE get off the internet and experience life, demonizing intimacy makes you sound sheltered at best and like a demented Baptist boomer at worst

His bed was stolen

I will no longer be calling “AI art” I will be calling it Computer Rendered Artificial Pictures (CRAP)

Played some MGS3 earlier today.

Okay but EVERY Democrat says the rent is too high these days. The real issue is that they don't ALSO say "Republicans should mind their own fucking business and stop trying to peek into your kid's pants" and "'A.i.' companies are jacking up your electricity bills and fucking up your kid's brains."

Never forget. Every measure to ban "gender ideology," LGBTQ student groups in universities, trans healthcare, trans inclusion, it's all the same pedigree of ideas and it's all headed the same direction if you don't try to stop it.

"Become ungovernable"

Stop your doomscrolling and look at this otter

Allow me to put some #StarTrek in your #StarWars. Happy #MaytheFourth art by @ncc-60205.bsky.social

Never let anyone talk you out of a quick 2 day game jam. Those 4 months will be the best 3 years spent releasing a commercial game of your life

This seems too good to be true (look at the graph comparing its material properties to HDPE, PLA, ABS, and PMMA), but if it IS true... I want this in my 3D printers. Yesterday. bsky.app/profile/hist...

Please donate and help me spread this around. #transcrowdfund
