I made a cockatrice!! Pattern by @cirquellcurios.bsky.social Almost entirely handsewn because my sewing machine hates stretchy fabric.

I preordered Hello Sunshine by @keezyyoung.bsky.social while I was in Oakland helping out my Popo (at the excellent Walden Pond Books). It took me a few days to finish it, not because it wasn’t an absolute page turner but because a) it’s actually quite thick, b) I really had to linger… 🧵

Checking the news every morning like

Every week, I see at least one headline that’s exactly this tweet.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

If your knee-jerk reaction to artists despairing over massive lay-offs and the further erosion of entire creative industries is anything but solidarity with the artists, rethink everything.

The Medicaid changes won’t go into effect until after midterms in 2027, which kinda says to me that this administration doesn’t want people to remember who did this to them.

Just BINGED Fairmeadow for the first time and it is SO SO good.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs.

@blackforager.bsky.social just finished a BRILLIANT talk that wove together racism, colonialism, the death of inherited knowledge re: the natural world, landscape snacks, and the inherent destructiveness of the #MAHA agenda in 90 min. AMAZING! Also, her #OOTD with the crop hoodie? 👌🏻 #artinbloom #CAM

I dunno, man, the "you guys are being too mean to the plagiarism machines that stole all your work and were created to try to replace you so rich people don't pay you a tiny fraction of their wealth for it" posters popping up are pretty funny

A massive study of 50,000 households over 1,000 archaeological sites provides ample evidence that inequality is not a "natural" outgrowth of sophistication. Instead, it is a political choice. Which means, kids, that we don't have to choose it. archaeologymag.com/2025/04/stud...

The way the American right thinks they ought to be able to abuse people but also have those same people love them is kinda the same relationship incels have with women

Lotta people who have spent their comfortable, unbothered lives smugly insisting they "Don't do politics" are about to find out politics have no issue doin' them.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies. In Denmark: - Health care and college are free.   - The starting wage is $22/hr. - Paid parental leave is 1 year. - Paid vacation is 6 weeks.   - All workers get pensions.

A new idea that might work

This is exactly what I warned would happen - please please make sure you’re holding media outlets and publications account for their coverage.

What great albums came out when you were 21?

I am fundraising for the Baltimore Abortion Fund! From now until May 15 I’ll have these prints listed in my shop for pre-order at sliding scale prices. At the end of the fundraising period I will print and ship as many as are sold and donate 100% of the profits to BAF

I'm reading* the Clocktaur Duology by @tkingfisher.com and I'm afraid my favorite character is about to die and I'm stress-eating about it. (*well, listening -- shoutout @libro.fm )

happy international women’s day!

Check it out, it's the assholes who won't look at yardcam footage of your bike getting stolen in 4k and follow its airtag to its exact location to retrieve it because they have "more important" things to do

If HB 4130 passes, politicians—not medical professionals—would dictate how pregnancy loss is recorded and how medical language is defined. Read the full story: jessica.substack.com/p/south-caro...

well this made me cry over breakfast. to any democrats holding even a shred of power right now: look at what’s possible from people far more endangered and vulnerable than you and grow a spine, you fucking cowards www.erininthemorning.com/p/powerful-s...

“Speak up, speak out, get in the way. Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.” – John Lewis

Absolutely shameful.

One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts." Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them. This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

I feel like this was exactly the right time for me to read Mary by @natcassidy.bsky.social . Audiobook narration by Susan Bennett was exquisite. My new favorite revenge fantasy. #femininerage #weaponizedghosts #horrorlit #wombrage

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business. We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.
