Boredom thoughts brought to you by watching Grimm: Are leeches "natures" botox wrinkle treatment?

Please leave a comment telling the government that you DO NOT want Medicaid tied to a work requirement and why that is unfair, especially for disabled people. Begging you all to take 2 minutes to do this please.

Boost for 07/15. Also, my bank account is now $349 overdrawn, so I may need a little bit extra to help with food this month. My direct CashApp and PayPal links are available via my profile (by way of LinkTree).

Do you know anyone who can help?

Every time you buy boy wizard stuff, you contribute to the suffering & death of others Literally.

If you've been waiting to donate until things were the most urgent and dire that they've ever been, now would be an amazing time. *lolsob* gofund.me/49a4a2dbd

I'm still so glad I didn't choose to use Lindsey in my pen name when I was making my Twitter account in 2010 😅

Aww! They've made flossers for Marines!

Looking for a good brand of oil pastel fixative spray (non aerosol preferred) to use on my old and (hopefully) new drawings to preserve them and also if i sell anything I'd like for them to be somewhat safe from damage in transit to their new person.

@sethanikeem.bsky.social saw this and thought you might get a giggle from it 😁 www.amazon.com/Protective-E...

Just an FYI for people using pronoun labelers. I just switched to @pronounsinb.io due to concerns in this thread.

Bestie just has to block half her family today because the abuse is so severe. Please help her out? She's not well due to the extreme abuse being cast at her by her own parents. She's only asking $50 linktr.ee/vickivvinters

My 11yo asked me if there are any fantasy books written about a child born of a witch and a wizard who can use both of their magics. Does anyone know of books like that? Can be written for any age group. He’s an advanced reader.

I need a Bluetooth splitter for wireless earbuds. There are lots of options but most won't work with computers or tvs, I'm mostly finding ones that are designed just for airline sound systems.

Does anyone know what happened to author Maddy (Madison Holmes) Hunter? Last anyone heard from her was Oct 2019 as far as I can tell.

I'm sitting here cackling because boy did I misread something! It wasn't exactly wrong really... but not what was printed either so 😅

Still trying to find an appropriate shade for this very old lamp, it clearly needs something to match it's distinctive vintage appearance. Mum actually used this in the 60's but it's way older than that because it came from her grandmother.

Morning 😂.

I haven't been sleeping well lately, only dream was yesterday after I finally fell asleep at 5am of a word and picture jumble. Today was very different. I was watching a movie with @sethanikeem.bsky.social staring Daryl Hannah and a very young Tom Hanks. But it wasn't Splash.

i'm sure delivery drivers mean well knocking briskly before leaving a package at my door, but when i'm sitting nearby, i hear the knock and my whole nervous system is like AGHGHAHFSGHGH

Boosting this incredibly modest fundraiser Seriously, for what they’re doing, $3k is a pittance Legacy media has failed us. Toss a coin where it will do us all some good:

Cutting costs because my income from writing has...cut itself. How do you host and maintain your website on the cheap, yo? I'm at $200 a year right now for hosting. V good host but...

Now is a really good time to look into Affinity Publisher

What's a good but inexpensive brand of watercolour pencils? I find the paints can be too messy (I'm clumsy so that makes it worse) and I'm hoping that the pencils will be easier to get what I'm after.

Why won't my brain shut off?

discord is apparently instantly perma-banning people who post images of grids. its moderation AI thinks that a grid, whether that be a pixelated texture from a video game, a screenshot of folders in a file explorer, a chess board, etc, is illegal and illicit material. #discord_grid_ban

new discord problem where uploading any image containing a grid; chess boards, repeating patterns, inventories, google drives, wordle solves, etc can permaban you because their awful AI thinks you're uploading CP, google "discord grid ban" for it." copy + pasted, spread this around

So discord (and a bunch of other sites) are perma banning accounts for posting images of grids? (Like even word game grids) And flagging it as CSAM...

Direct hit from Dupont Circle.

Ugh. The stinky fire pit people are at it again. They did fireworks last night too. You'd think people with a full roof of solar panels would consider the environment and other people in the area, but not this one apparently.

🫤 waiting on a call from a pest control to deal with a wasp emergency before the yard guy comes (nest is on the back gate so it can't be opened safely). Probably about $120ish if the guy calls me back at all.

Today’s thread/rant/PSA on how the attack against trans rights are attacks against us all (and advocating for trans rights advocates for us all) Silence = Death

@jodiegriffin.bsky.social 😁 Looks what I found at Michael's:

This is so cute, I want it 🖤

Book revommendations, please: A family member wants to read up on OCD & I’m looking for reliable books that are not just scammy health & wellness nonsense but could provide solid insight to someone who suspects this might be a part of their neurodivergence Thanks in advance

I keep seeing people thinking this is a bluesky problem. If you're seeing this it thinks you're in a state or country with age verification laws. This is what every social media site will do if KOSA and the KIDS Act succeeds. Running to another socmed won't fix it, we have to fight the source.

The other day, I stumbled across a t-shirt that said "the trans agenda is an average lifespan," and boy, if that doesn't sum up a lot.

If you didn’t get on with science at school or just want to remind yourself what you should have learned from science lessons, drop me a line and you can also have a free kindle edition of the book:

Frankie talks while he's eating, it's so funny 😹

I will be proud about being one of Snargle Goldclaw's ghostwriters until the day i die and join Glint in the mists.

More yard fun: Several years ago now, this valiant crab apple sacrificed itself to keep a storm-fallen oak from hitting our house. Kept the stump as a memorial (it’s where I leave faerie & land-spirit offerings). Today it’s wearing this fabulous fungus like a party hat. #WitchSky

There’s something bitterly ironic (and often cruelly intentional) for so many of these restrictions on #LGBTQIA content, access, & visibility being enacted on #PrideMonth Today is the precise anniversary of the Stonewall Riots How many more riots will it take?

Without a link. Guttenberg with two Ts is a malware site.

We warned you. Too many of you dismissed it as hysteria. We WARNED you

Ugh, trying to get my Whatsapp messages from my old phone to my new one doesn't make sense! How can it not transfer them to the new one?? It's still the same number! But it just won't let me have them.

Got woken up by a earthquake alert blasting in my ears. Didn't feel anything though which was surprising.
