No. Your friends don't secretly hate you. You're just dehydrated.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Someone on the @worldbuildcast.bsky.social Discord server reminded me that the jacket copy for this book literally begins: "The Dictator is dead; long live the Republic." So, uh... if that's... idk... for any reason an appealing sentiment right now... buy the book! 😅

there is no coincidence, Florence and the Machine announce a new album, the weather turns, the sun starts to recede into the distance and with it, it's furious burning touch....Autumn, the sacred Spooky Season, and all that rain we wished we had in the spring.... has arrived.

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

This administration is so blatantly against women, BIPOC, LGTBQ+ Let’s sew our pockets deep and rise up to overthrow this oppressive regime! We can do it if we do it together. 💙🩵🩵 #resist #badassfeminist Check out this amazing poem by Sharon Owens

Keep in mind that EVERYTHING he says or does going forward is to distract from the EPSTEIN files. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.

So, gotta do the annoying silver lining thing first and say my friend up here went through that a few years ago and she did not even need chemo. Early detection is amazing and medical advancements have made it so much less scary than it used to be.

isn't it strange how bisexual women with their boyfriends are always the target for biphobes and never bisexual men with their girlfriends? it's almost like biphobia and misogyny go hand-in-hand

At almost 2am, I am researching pyrophilous plants and mycelia for the purposes of fanfic research. What is my life. (Awesome. It is awesome.) #yesitmatters #writing #writingresearch

Yeah, that's about it in a nutshell. #RESIST through #PEACEFULProtest

After the Civil War officially ended, historians tell us Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas, on June 19, 1865, to tell more than 250,000 enslaved people that they were free.

HISSSSS

A company I have contracted with for the last 5 or so years just announced they are closing, and the email is heavily implied it is because of AI being used to generate marketing images which makes matching photographers with brands no longer necessary. (1/2)

Post-Botw, Zelda's first walk on Hateno beach. She got her body back and she's slowly but surely re-experiencing and reclaiming physical sensations. Inspired by my friend @summonerluna.bsky.social 's wonderful fic archiveofourown.org/works/599767... #zelink #breathofthewild #botw

Spent my morning really worked up about the ao3 AI scrape, and the struggles my published writer friends are facing. Support the arts. Support your friends who make art. #fuckgenai

Yay Canada!!! Everyone eat some poutine in their honor today. 🇨🇦

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless
