I got laid off after coming out at work back in 2018, and had about five years of failing to even get to interviews before finally giving up entirely. Now I have learned to eat less, because mutual aid networks all went tits up at the same time. I have a master's in statistics lol

as a disabled woman seeing leftists resign themselves to AI is a very similar feeling to seeing them resign themselves to covid

Now, always and forever linking to this piece: truthout.org/articles/why...

The thing about romanes as a language is any word can be a loanword if you're pure of heart

mom come pick me up, Steven King is doing Mother/Maiden/Crone again and he reaaally wants to fuck the Mother

Read four Dark Tower books, reached Page 832 of The Stand, by Steven King, and we have passed the Bechdel test for the first time

If my timeline starts to be in German, I am up too damn late.

To everyone just now finding out Isaac Asimov was rather famously a sex pest: He's been gone 34 years now, you can handle this truth, I believe in you

This is what law enforcement always does, they wrongfully list us in gang data bases with no evidence. DHS said they were in a gang and the all the nonprofit protest groups in PDX ceased advocating for those shot. US immigration | The Guardian share.google/0Zk7olQ7Hwhs...

Literally everyone from Gaza getting their account suspended this week so I guess the racism dial must be turned up high

Israel bombed tents in Gaza today, killed at least 30 people including children, and the death toll is likely to rise www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

pizzagate and qanon were not onto something, they were orchestrated by pedophiles to make accusing people of pedophilia make you look insane so that they could continue doing pedophile shit. fucking christ

My ko-fi goal is no longer relevant. I'm going to have to figure some things out. The plumber believes that there was no avoiding it. It's only surprising it hadn't happened yet. He suggested a re-pipe. Imma get more opinions. But please, if you can help, I'll need some. ko-fi.com/karidru

So i guess this just got more expensive. I'm scared.

approps bill funding ICE: 220 to 207 democrats voting yea: 7 220-7=213 207+7=214 aw shucks. boy howdy. gee whiz. what a coincidence

governments comprising half of the world population simultaneously diving full-tilt into fascism using transphobia as a global wedge point is, when you think about it, the best reason for trans women to be yelling "fuck you" at each other

Whatever country you are from, it's bad. There are no good countries, just more or less oppressive (and most are moving toward "more"). They should all be torn down and stamped out.

It is sort of hard to explain exactly how infuriating the experience of watching videos out of Minneapolis is while reading about how congressional Democrats are more worried about being labeled "anti-cop" than voicing any meaningful opposition to an organization whose only purpose is evil.

USians stop using Roma as a gotcha challenge (impossible)

Folks clinging to nationalism in this time is crazy. We're fighting this together, because they're fighting us together, whether people like that or not.

This is a global far right power grab, so the sooner everybody realizes that and puts aside their deeply outdated notions around national identity, which got us here to begin with, the better. The only way out is through, but the only way through is all of us fighting these climate warlords together

spent the evening being all the way the fuck in love with my friend again

whenever i see ads for online gambling i get the same feeling as when you realize all the water is slowly pulling away from the shore at the beach

I just think, if we were teaching our children phrases like "grass is green because it isn't blood yet" from an early age, we would have an entirely different set of problems. and, considering the set we have now, I'm willing to take that trade, personally

Cryptids are funny cause half are "twelve people independently reported seeing a six-eyed bird-figure who asked if their soul was yet flensed for the revelation of truth, before leaving a cloud of sulfur and disappearing into the Appalachians" and the other half are "what if a guy was big and hairy"

"4 Oglala Lakota men detained by ICE in South Minneapolis have been partially identified." "[L]ast names have not been released, only first names." "[D]irect violation of federal law, various treaties and [.] constitutional protections." #Minnesota #USA #Incarceration #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

I am glad Will Stancil is doing what he's doing in MN right now, I support it fully. Doesn't mean he hasn't been absolutely insufferable up until now, and all of his long term plans are shit, and he used to tell my trans friends to drink bleach

The Department of Homeland Security is refusing to release information on 3 detained Oglala Lakota tribal members who are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp for Native people, unless the tribe enters into an immigration agreement with ICE.

he should just come out and say 'ew the third world browns are not people'

Of course "bitch" is a slur. Are you all dense?

A local rapid response group I work with is desperately trying to raise $5K tonight to get immediate legal representation for a group member who is facing deportation. It is crucial that these funds be raised by tomorrow. These are organizers I trust. Venmo for donations: @geebees5818

Right. The point is not “it matters extra because it’s a citizen,” the point is “we either hang together or we will all hang separately.”

This is probably going to demand a depressing amount of repetition, but here goes. If Renee Nicole Good was a childless foreign national, its still wasn't OK for a federal employee to straight up execute her. Begging everyone to not concede one inch of ground to this toxic framing.

I'm sorry, but I just think it's very telling when we differentiate between ICE's killing of American citizens versus undocumented immigrants. And I'm seeing that a lot right now.

Jesus Christ. It's only Wednesday.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

The only thing I won from the tontine was a pile of memories that all said "burn after reading." and insomnia.

Only for a rip tide to bring me further, back again

it's cool how my epilepsy has progressed to leaving me bedridden any time Events happen like I'm fucking Arwen dying of World Bad

40 people (at least) died. It's the official policy of these newsrooms that Latin American lives aren't worth anything. Again, if you still pay for an NYT subscription I think you're trash.
