A team of dedicated cat searchers is looking for Scribbles, a cat who went missing after her human’s apartment caught fire in mid-December. blockclubchi.co/4ptyKbM

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

I want people to realize prosecuting the police is always a long shot and even when successful that it hasn’t produced any observable change in behavior from the police in general.

Any one of us could be shot or kidnapped because an ICE agent doesn’t like the look of us. Are you prepared to be murdered in cold blood while “news” sources repeat the claim you were “weaponizing your vehicle” trying to leave your driveway? They want you to accept that. They want to make it normal

My protagonist is at her best when she's admirin' her gf

More girlfriend posting. My protagonist loves her girlfriend lol #WIPSnips

It's so weird how you can just be chilling and having a normal conversation with some nice people on this website and then some rando jumps in being all hostile and snarky over nothing.

If this happened to a conservative organizer, Republicans would make her a hero, a household name and a congressional candidate. Elected Democrats just pretend it isn't happening.

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids? Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

I wrote a myth for my wip about a woman who falls in love with an anthropomorphic goose god. Then today I saw a couple of archaeologists debating a paper claiming that a clay artifact depicts a woman having sex with a goose. It's attributed to the culture I used as inspiration for the one in my wip.

Truly embarrassed to be from here.

One of my favorite little pieces of world-building. #WIPSnips

I've been avoiding social media lately, so I'm behind. This was a tricky one. I feel I do so many scenery descriptions for #WIPSnips. I have several instances of "begin/beginning/began," but most either have spoilers, or else too violent/NSFW for me to feel comfortable using for a snip.

I forgot I just wrote this one, and I like it better than the other one I posted, so now I'm posting both. #WIPSnips

I know a lot of people in the US (myself included) are posting through it right now, but I am sure even very smart people are not privy to some inside info about this “actually” being about the Epstein files

I say this a lot, but it's worth saying it again: I fucking hate this country and I'm embarrassed to be from here.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

you’re about to see just a deluge of bootlicking legacy media shit under the guise of “international law” and “US saves the day” and PLEASE don’t let them get away with it

👏👏👏

It has been nearly 20 years since that Sarah McLachlan ASPCA commercial aired. Even she is sick of it and had to send them a cease and desist because it was negatively impacting her other charity work. And yet, every time my dog complains about anything, I tell her to "take it up with Sarah."

In 2011, a larger group of judges, led by a Republican majority, agreed with Obama/Holder that the “finality” of sentences was too important to allow prisoners to be released on a second rather than first petition, even if the prisoner was correct all along.

The Obama/Holder DOJ argued: If prisoners were allowed to file more petitions, the “floodgates” would open and many others — mostly poor — would have to be released. They asked a larger group of judges to reverse Gilbert’s victory.

Here’s where it gets interesting. There are many people like Gilbert in federal prison whose sentences are illegal. Did you know that? Instead of rushing to ensure that thousands of people illegally separated from their families were set free, DOJ decided to fight and appeal.

The federal judge sided with Obama/Holder, and Ezell Gilbert remained in a cage even though everyone agreed he was now in prison illegally. He had the audacity to hope that courts would follow the law.

But Obama/Holder DOJ argued to a federal judge that even if his sentence was illegal, Gilbert must remain in prison. They said the “finality” of criminal cases was too important to allow prisoners to file more than one petition, even if the first one was wrongly denied.

Ok look fellow “guys”, change the babies’ diaper It’s not hard, every human should be capable of taking care of themselves and really any child but especially *their* child This includes feeding and diaping Don’t be who she complains about on r/mommit because frankly why shouldn’t she leave you?

There needs to be a laughing emoji that's a little less dramatic than 😂. Like, calm down it's not that funny. What's the emoji for when you exhale sharply through the nose? And don't say 😤 that is not the face of someone who just received a text with a mildly amusing photo of their aunt's cat.

Every subreddit has a post like this once a day or so, and I wish people would stop seeing romantic relationships as something you have an obligation to continue if the other person is like this. Yeah, sure, dumping a guy over dog clothes might sound silly. But why be with someone this unpleasant?

CW: gross

Hanging on to this man's every word.

A new scene I wrote yesterday! It was not an easy one to get right but I'm pleased with how it came out. Names removed for spoiler reasons, as usual. And I'm subbing "strike" for "clobber." #WIPSnips #WriteSky

I'm begging for liberals to add an ounce of electoralism to their politics.

Onward, Christian soldiers

I'm begging for Puritans to add an ounce of militarism to their politics.

I don't think it's wrong to not like Spinal Tap, but I am intensely curious about the subjective experience of someone who watches it and thinks the jokes are few and far between

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta. Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

I used to manage wine programs for movie theaters and I am in the extremely unique position to say with professional certainty that the answer here is a crisp Albariño.

Saw everyone talking about gambling for kids today and am depressed to find out it's because of this

Just wow. @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy came out swinging in this article. He's right though and that's the coolest part.

Bingo!

Lighting a candle for the memory of Willem van Spronsen today.

Something that's getting lost in this story is that the "instructor" in question is not a professor with a PhD; she is a Graduate Teaching Assistant, meaning the University of Oklahoma has thrown one of ITS OWN STUDENTS under the bus to appease a right wing grifter who tried to dunk on a trans woman

“ The daughter of a well known conservative operative , whose paper did not answer the topic at hand and had a carefully planned media campaign , had a trans instructor fired for grading a paper according to the agreed upon rubric”
