If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

Always a good time to revisit @michaelhobbes.bsky.social and @notalawyer.bsky.social's delightfully excoriating deconstruction of this particular bullshit artist and his signature text...

Listening to the story of Emma Gatewood, who walked the Appalachian Trail at age 67 after telling her family she was “going for a walk”. My husband did the Long Trail, I know how much I don’t want to do this sort of thing…but for a minute I wanted to be this tough as nails. Goddamn.

The Nine Delights forever

I slept horribly last night, so I took an edible for better sleepiness tonight, and I’m watching Life of Chuck. I’m always a sucker for Flanagan, and this is definitely the state to be in for that lengthy monologue about the cosmic scale of time.

Happy new year from me and my Black Philip mug by @skeletaldropkick.bsky.social We hope you live deliciously in 2026!

I told my “mistaking Maggie Gylenhaal for a fellow toddler music program mom” story in the replies, but then remembered an even more minor one: I was with my mom when she spotted David Crosby in an upstate NY grocery store. She was thrilled. I was a kid, so I said “who?”

[screaming at the top of my lungs, once again] the fundamental technology of humanity is care

Don’t forget to leave a brick out for Ben Folds this morning

people are real into not giving the trump regime what it wants today & that’s good because you shouldn’t, but one of the things it very much wants is to end healthcare for trans kids & even if you don’t care about trans kids (you should; shame on you), what if you told them hell no out of spite?

It's interesting that people just totally forgot that masking in 2020 literally drove one strain of flu extinct. It no longer exists, because people wore masks. And, that after a bunch of covid infections, they find it very hard to understand why you'd mention masks when talking about the flu

Happy Thanksgiving, America!

I took a stupid little walk for my stupid little health and the vibe was extremely, aggressively November-y

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

Guys do you remember the sun

The spring time change: I’m relaxed, I’m free, I can do anything! Strong and full of possibility and creative energy! Everything is interesting! This time change: Will it be dark forever? What even is motivation? Does anyone love me? Am I doomed? When can I go to bed? Hibernation is upon me, etc.

Great job, everyone, we did it again

The kicker is so brutal my body involuntarily recoiled in secondhand embarrassment:

A writer tried dating alt-right men as an experiment to learn about them. There is so much going on here I don't even know where to start www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/love-sex/...

Watching Trick R Treat for the first time and I just said out loud to the cat “LOGAN ROY IS IN THIS?!”

Me when I was excitedly talking about The Witch last night like it’s my fave fun Halloween romp and like…It’s 95% Puritanical misery and 5% “good for her” but I love it like it’s a fun Halloween romp

Look at this cool friend I saw on my walk tonight! He is shrouded in shadow and mystery but I suspect he is super cute.

I just needed ppl to see this but also by all means, if you own a giant jello mold or someone with beloved pet pigs, help a person out

What was written on those bullets is online brainrot meme shit, and has nothing to do with trans anything. But the WSJ inaccurately and irresponsibly went ahead and said otherwise. Contact them and ask them to fully retract, and apologize for placing a target on trans folks’ backs.

Quick friendly reminder that Bluesky is entirely fucking public and you should post accordingly! Heads on straight, gang!

Hey if you don’t know (and depending on what state you’re in unfortunately) you can get a Covid vaccine if you are high risk. At least for now, “high risk” includes being physically inactive or having ever smoked. Those things can be true for many people! On the CVS website, just check the box.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Obligatory reminder: if you wake up in a room with a bat, you need to get rabies shots, because their bites aren’t always detectable! Carry on!
