Ike has been back and forth for cuddles during our Shadows of Brimstone OT.

Alright, Team SENSIBLE SHOES is firing up the stream again for Day 2 of Extra Life Overtime in support of the National Immigration Law Center. Join us for the shenanigans! tiltify.com/@blarkytopia...

Phil and company are playing Shadows of Brimstone to raise money for the National Immigration Law Center. You know… they want to be tormented for a good cause… and there are good options in the fundraiser for tormenting them!

Do you remember these handsome motherfuckers? Watch them hit the mines again this Saturday at 1pm to play more Shadows of Brimstone and raise money to support @nilc.org! What’s more romantic for Valentines Day than gaining mutations and smiting evil?

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them." That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

Because of how I’m contracted to work with the org I do, I get comms for more regular employees. Today’s was an HR notice to report any anticipated or experienced issues with striking workers, pickets, or protesters interfering with my operations. Rude. Go Teamsters!!!

"Genaro" is pruning grape vines in Fresno county, CA. "We are paid 32 cents per vine. We start early in morning around 6:30am when it is very cold and finish for the day at 5:30pm." #WeFeedYou

Unasked for advice in response to someone is criticism. Etch this onto your souls. Ask first.

I really do love misty fog so much. So so much. It’s slowly drifting closer.

"Raul" shared, "Pruning apple trees in the winter cold here in WA state is very hard. We spend our days going up and down ladders - that gets slippery - to cut the branches. Frozen branches are brittle. Sometimes they break unexpectedly. We need to be very careful." #WeFeedYou

Partly cloudy, 65, and 68% humidity - will take this happily over the past couple of days! [ok, also reeeally hoping the forecast for mid-high 50s for next week holds. Ok, or is even cooler. I dream]

We say "believe women" and "oh but his books are so important" in the same breath. "Believe women" and "that fourteen-year-old led him on, he's a genius, we need him." "Believe woman" and "we prefer the wolf."

Loot that drops after defeating me: - silver hoop earrings - black sunglasses - 1-3 hair ties - chocolate chips - crumpled tissues - eye drops, lip balm, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, lotion, 3 sizes of band aid - ear buds - click-click pen - old gen phone - slippers - a partially fermented plum

Whiny rant: Weather forecast high was 69-73 in the area. Weather underground is showing most readings 75-80, with the airport reading 73.94 at 1pm. We just generally figure it’s going to be about 5 degrees hotter if sun is predicted. I miss our Winter Xtra Lite.

It is debatable whether Shakespeare wrote this (the play is an amalgam and I personally am not convinced of the attribution to Shakespeare because the rhythm is wrong) but it is indisputable that watching Sir Ian is a fucking masterclass in dramatic interpretation every goddamn time

For the $&@!ers who don’t think epic ice and cold count as climate change cuz but-you-said-global-waaaaarmiiiiing: first week of February and here it was over 80 (central ca coast, 2-3 miles from the ocean, usually cooler than nearby towns) and my car is coated in pollen.

How can I move with my sweet eepy baby kitty breathing softly on my arm? He’s 17 and needs his rest.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Now showing on the HRes996 co-sponsor list! Congressman Panetta’s office did call me back yesterday to let me know he’d be signing on, good to see it published today. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

"Iliana" has been working in the strawberry fields in Watsonville, CA for the last 16 years. "She and her coworkers are currently planting strawberries. "I get very tired because I have to bend over all day long to do this type of work. But it feeds my family." #WeFeedYou

it's past his bedtime

Gavin, how do I hate thee? Let me count the ways.

Shelf kitty! Did you know moving items on shelves is a telltale sign a human needs an attention intervention?

Happy Sub Rosa Day! 🖖🏻 #StarTrek

Called my US Representative’s office (D-CA-19) again about why he hasn’t cosponsored HRes996. Was supposed to get a call back from staff. Am told they just haven’t had time yet, will call when they do. I hope they’re busy doing something effective about idk all the this. Sincerely.

@funranium.bsky.social professional crimes against safety always make me think of you

PSA: this cat will sneeze on your eyeball. Blink in anticipation, receive dewy drops of cat snot on your eyelashes. This is the way.

You actually aren’t being clear “ we are not funding ICE” Is 5 words

"Arnulfo" shares, "This in my first season harvesting tangerines in Fresno, CA. I fill two 900 lb crates a day. It's hard work going up and down ladders and carrying the bag full of tangerines to empty it." #WeFeedYou

Happy Birthday to Gillian Vigman! The Cerritos is still standing, the medical bay is somehow operational, and Dr. T’Ana remains the most aggressively honest doctor in Starfleet. Thanks for the laughs, the chaos, and for reminding us that bedside manner is optional in space.

"Juan" is pruning grape vines in Fresno County. "After we finish our row, we go back to pick up any branches and do a quick clean up. The branches for these grape vines are cut completely off as these are the ones that will be machine picked. We earn 24 cents/vine." #WeFeedYou

The things we are seeing daily feel like a horror movie, but this is not fiction. It’s a new terrifying reality. Trump’s DHS mob are killing US citizens, taking kids from their schools & terrorizing hard working immigrants. We need you to DEMAND ACTION. act.seiu.org/a/do_not-fun...

For anyone who cares Jackie the Big Bear Eagle just laid a second egg!

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution. If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Sumo Nun, the Second Coming! No. Not that. This:

Transporting to this feeling. D’awwww.

To say Donald Trump is a mad King greatly understates the situation

I watch the bulk of ashleythebaroness videos, despite rarely sharing them. But this one hit today. And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon. fascism wrapped in our own flag

There are so many episodes where more competent shitbirds than him, like Harcourt Mudd, get swirlied.

Wednesday is TRANSPHOBES ARE TRASH DAY! Congratulations to those who celebrate this wonderful day. Also, every other day is also Transphobes are Trash Day, I forgot to mention that.

I am perpetually that “we didn’t think anybody used that feature but if so they can just figure out something else” user. I am weird-brained and take advantage of all the wrong options. IOS 26.2 is not going smoothly today.
