A script you can use if you’re not good at speaking on the spot.

Good morning from Izzy and her 3 teeth

🧵 Alannah Farrell (they/them), “A (Downtown Brooklyn)” (2025) After coming out as trans, Alannah’s husband, now ex, threw them out of their shared apartment. Without a home, the internationally celebrated artist moved sublet-to-sublet, hotel-to-hotel.

noooo the goth paint history artist lady accidentally inhaled arsenic she’s usually so careful she’s gonna be okay but like 😱😱😱

I know we’re all divided and disillusioned by voting these days, but it’s Fat Bear Week, and I think it’ll do your heart good to participate. Fill out a bracket, read the bios to meet the bears (one has earned the nickname the Floatato due to his habit of lounging in the river!), and vote! 🐻

It’s also the safest anti pyretic and fevers can (very, very rarely but it’s a documented risk) actually cause harm to foetuses. The harm here isn’t just ‘pregnant people will suffer’ it could actually cause harm to the foetus and I thought this lot were supposed to care about foetuses 👀

I didn't repost the last time I saw this but for those unfamiliar with prenatal medication safety ratings, Acetaminophen is the ONLY analgesic pregnant people are still fully allowed to take. They hate women and want them in pain. Incidental to, you know, autism being fine.

I absolutely do not have the energy to do this but it excites me much more than the ink thing

Illustration for the cover of Spectrum: An Autistic Horror Anthology. I was intending on sharing it again this week anyway as the original art is going to be included in my original art sale this weekend, but the topic of autistic horror is again painfully relevant.

begging my husband to understand that his child and wife are different sizes when he sorts laundry

Fevers are dangerous early in pregnancy and Tylenol is the only fever reducer pregnant people are supposed to take. In this freak’s mind, having a baby with congenital anomalies incompatible with life is *less bad* than having a child with autism

Those horrible fictional rumors about teenage girls getting pregnant to have juicy boobs for prom and then terminating, except it's using morning sickness as discount ozempic. (I do wonder how that budgets out actually)

The closest the bot has ever struck to home, a restaurant I have patronized and enjoy. It's a sign. Ordering birthday lunch from here. Dm for invite.

regulating how and when and in what tone and in what art and on what platforms and what feelings you're supposed to have about it when it comes to discussing sexual assault is just a tool to suppress discussion of it. It is another way to force sexual assault back into the realm of secrecy and shame

This is entirely true on so many levels I don't think I could possibly detail it exhaustively, but you really can't oppose trans people's human rights and still have freedom of expression and bodily autonomy, the idea that people are entitled to self determination goes right out the window....

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵

it does very strange things to artists online when the primary thing they are able to market is intimate access to process

it becomes clearer every day that we actually need total revolution and yet so many are terrified or cynical of the thought. forgive me, but that is the only way historically oppressed people get free and we are no longer in any meaningful way free.

recalling this bit of Cryptonomicon for no reason in particular today

I'm not a real foamer or anything but out of all this nerd's videos this one is the most schadenfreude essence of System Working As Designed, about L.A. transit.

In my day, you had to form a toxic relationship and hang out with another unpleasant person to have running snarky and unhelpful commentary.

I am once again asking the "science is pure and objective and apolitical" crowd to read Thomas Kuhn.

Artists, show an old piece you love! I'm going for maximum oldness here, your challenge is to beat 2001.

I swear like half the communications you get from old ladies come attached to some story about dogs regardless of whether the recipient has or even likes dogs

Revealing a lot about myself to say that on the same day that I got the first installment of my decent GC payment, I still took my MIL's plastic bottle empties and fed them one by one into the redemption machine.
