There is no Alaska way of life without our fisheries. That’s why I’m in this fight: to bring back our fish, restore abundance, ensure Alaskans can feed their families, and stand up to the rigged DC system that’s failing Alaska.

I ran an absolutely 100% human, zero AI-involvement at any stage passage of my writing through an "AI detector," curious if it could really tell human from AI work, and it said my own writing was "84% AI written" then asked I wanted to pay to have it "humanized." So there's that to keep in mind.

Well? Are you coming in? #OFMD #OFMDfanart #DrawIzzyHands

Happened across this interview with Matt Maher from 2013 while cross-checking a detail, and it includes some beautiful reflection on his cleft palate, and how it's shaped things for him. I love that Pete eventually became part of his story 🥹 www.backstage.com/magazine/art...

and now it is back to gloomy anxiety hours waiting for the next horrible thing and/or the next thing to go wrong. c'est la vie.

Exactly this. No gatekeeping. Access to HRT and surgery on an informed consent basis, just like everyone else. Why we have to be subject to examination and study after study like some organism in a drop of water is demeaning.

May we go back to sea now Cap'n?

The Portents..... the Omens

This an official Vatican photograph of Leo at Lampedusa, Italy - one of the world’s heaviest migrant sites - where he went this morning to pray for migrants who died at sea. This is after turning down the offer to come to the United States.

Now friends, this has been a post full of schadenfreude We've all had a good time here What if I told you the best was yet to come What if I told you that after waiting for HOURS--miserable, soaking wet, desperate and disappointing hours--our view of the fireworks was.......this

New Zoom background just dropped

Love me the traditional midnight-1am July 5th fireworks. It does my patriotic heart good.

The Freedom250 announcer is now playing the saddest version of God Bless America known to science and imploring the scattered, damp people mulling around to sing along so the “president can hear you,” per AP

what a bunch of

My tax dollars paid for this shit show, and I intend to extract as much entertainment as possible

they are really struggling to get emergency crews inside and somehow “ave Maria” is playing in the background

This is a deeply romantic (complete!) story with a great build up of suspense and wonderful dose of magical realism! Plus a bunch of great songs! Check it out! #OFMDfanfic bsky.app/profile/watc...

This is a very sweet story of Ed and Stede meeting in HS with all the challenges that brings. They will eventually come together as adults and I’m eager to see it play out! #OFMDfanfic bsky.app/profile/jeni...

With the #OFMDReverseBang happening, I think some less followed but great authors get a bit lost in the noise, so I will do some recs in this thread as the event goes on #OFMDfanfic #FicRecFriday ⬇️

Getting request for Venmo etc links which is very kind: here it is if you would like to sponsor/encourage this irresponsible and deviant lifestyle linktr.ee/laurajedeed

i'm having an amazing time right now, the schadenfreude is schadenfreuding

SAD PEOPLE IN TRUMP HATS EVERYWHEREEEEE

This fourth of July is brought to you by the lovely makers of schadenfreude. May every asshole out there be very inconvenienced by their own hubris and may there be no fatalities or hospitalizations from this batshittery.

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

Well done, Antifa!

drain the swamp ass

everyone sheltering at the Canadian embassy is *chef’s kiss*

Oh absolutely, yes 😍 I get to see this gorgeous art from @kuuttamo.bsky.social for a Full Fathom Five scene on my lock screen all the time 😍

Maga taking shelter in the National Museum of African-American History And Culture!

Screen grab so as not to derail, but Jack coded. #OFMD

Going to ER. Need help with money if possible. $80. For rides and meds. My face and neck and shoulder hurt. Since yesterday. Anxious. P: nivcharayahel V: heathmarie31 Sorry. Thank you.

I've never rooted this hard for weather in my life

Like many families across America, Jess and I are with family, laughing, giggling, smiling, huddled around the soft glow of a phone screen reading news about the weather in D.C.

You speak the truth. Sad, but true and it hurts.

Oh that’s 🦗🦗😂

Sorry to lib out but I guess my thought on the Fourth is that if it wasn’t possible for this country to really be an egalitarian multiracial democracy someday, the most disgusting people alive wouldn’t be trying so hard to foreclose that possibility

The “direction” part of this message makes me wonder if he overrode safety concerns from the groups that evacuated the Mall in the first place …

In my ongoing attempt to be more positive online and because I don't want the assholes to have all the fun today, a list of things I actually, genuinely like about America:

🗣 HE'S SO PRETTY!!!

not to get political, but America is real pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and i think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

WELP
