I love that Frank bought Gerard these IttyBittyVampires, I want them but it feels silly to order them for myself lol. mcphee.com/products/itt...

Donnie Dania took this brilliant photo in 2025. Talk about being in the right place at the right time. Goodnight

I have a Cyborg Manifesto quote tattooed on my shoulder and now I am trying unsuccessfully to explain Donna Haraway and feminist theory to my 7 and 10 year olds.

Ok so my eldest’s pet praying mantis Jeffrey died in October 2024, at the very old bug age of like a year and a half. Kid broke down sobbing tonight over missing their bug friend. The depth of emotion in this child. I’m lucky to love them and also I’m so fucking tired can we please sleep it’s 10pm

Fascinating list which perfectly illustrates the problem with these things. Only one of the top 22 was written in my lifetime - and I'm nearly 60. It's more a list of received wisdom of things people were told they should read when they were at school or university.

Friends are good it turns out

Alert! Now Ify Nwadiwe is flirting with Frank on Instagram www.instagram.com/p/DYVLwt5kb-...

CARTOON OF THE DAY 😕🇺🇸 (From @andertoon.bsky.social )

Good evening

Old man yaoi is real, my friends (thread)

We have two book launches this week! At both events we will be passing the hat for The WI Abortion Fund! Tomorrow: We Dance Upon Demons by Vaishnavi Patel Wednesday: A Womb of One's Own by Tara Mulder We hope to see you there! Love, Room

Huge congratulations to @millbot.bsky.social for winning GOLD in the Milwaukee Press Club awards, for "Best Single Editorial, Statement of Editorial Position or Opinion" for this column at The Recombobulation Area: www.therecombobulationarea.news/p/how-ai-is-...

What’s the best piece of writing about music you remember reading? Like that changed your perspective on how you interact with/understand music or a specific piece of music?

This book is SO good. Truly one of the best.

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

Today the Internet will disgorge a @jinjurly.bsky.social into my proximity!!! Here’s hoping they still love me after a week of my whole… this.

Last year I got interviewed for a student’s short documentary project about Room, and she emailed to tell us that her doc just won an award!!! Awww if only I didn’t hate seeing myself talk! I’m pretty sure I shared this last year when it was posted but here it is again: youtu.be/Kl9Jw7PQRAc?...

Anyhow will I be staying up til midnight watching an mcr livestream tonight? Yes.

It makes me feel a type of way that my mom thanks me for sending her Mother’s Day flowers but doesn’t wish me a happy Mother’s Day. Especially when my Mother’s Day has been full of kid meltdowns.

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

PBS doing a deep dive into the Black Parade <3 youtu.be/aOXZuI1hEW8?...

I’m sorry y’all but “all 173 of them” has me in tears

happy 9th anniversary to the day we watched Zendaya fall madly in love with Tom Holland in real-time

It’s my birthday and it’s pretty mediocre so far but at least it’s not a disaster

i simply don't understand why this is being treated as some sort of accomplishment in the queer press. this is quite grim!!!!!!!!!

Timeline cleanse.

I pray the tomb is shut forever. I pray the rock is never rolled away. I pray that which was buried remains buried, insensate, in perpetual rest with closed eye and stilled brain. I pray it lives, I pray it sleeps.

My preferred AI metaphor is actually Asbestos. - Seemingly magical properties - Developed and experimented with to make endless products - Poisoned countless communities in it's creation - Everything it was used for eventually becomes a toxic hazard to mitigate & it's in the fucking walls now

@aleph3.bsky.social thanks for coming over last night :)

Fuck. Tfw things are impossible and weird and terrible and your friends show tf up. <3 @jinjurly.bsky.social

Spirit Airlines has officially shut down operations. Well, you know what that means...

A visibly emotional Anne Hathaway responding to a trans kid--who named herself Ella after Ella Enchanted, and thanked Hathaway for her courage as an ally--saying "Ella, sweetie, I want to make something absolutely clear: It takes zero courage to love you"......now I might cry too

Just received this comment on a fic and I am going to absolutely die of old age tonight

It’s an inflatable omega nest?

I've decided there is one more Omelas take I would read and it's one in the form of an Isaac Chotiner interview.

Why aren’t we making “it’s gonna be Mae” the meme so everyone can stop posting JT’s face

cuck chair is not the correct terminology for what the fujo is doing because it implies one of the characters is their partner. i do not want to be in a longterm relationship with either of those men.

happy may day! every right you have as a worker was written in blood ❤️

doing one last call—if you are a trans entomologist/trans researcher studying bugs (in the most capacious sense) please dm me, I'd love to interview you!

I’m slogging through the fall romance book offerings and I just want to know—can anyone name me a fake dating/fake married book (or fic) where they DON’T end up together/dating for real?

Cool alt barista at my local cafe has complimented two of my mcr shirts and I don’t know if it’s bc they recognize that they are mcr shirts or they just like the vibes (they are not obviously MCR shirts).

alright its time for another one page rpg, so here is Gay Hockey Dragon Sex Coffee Shop Romantic Sportsball Cozy Dark Fantasy which I feel covers all my bases pretty neatly

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Having a rough one this morning but keeping my shit together for the kids.

GNU Terry Pratchett, whose words will echo long after we, and our children, and our children’s children have moved on thank you, as always, for making me a better person (quote from Reaper Man)

"Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic" is one of those all-time insights for me - I am devoted to the distinction between plastic and garbage.
