Binging a Steven Universe rewatch from the very beginning as self-care this weekend (alongside some spring cleaning). It's wild seeing some of these early episodes with already references for future plot stuff. Love this show so much 🤩

"This is Endometriosis" - please take 20 minutes of your weekend to watch this, although keep in mind the TW (some flashing imagery and medical/hospital scenes): www.russh.com/this-is-endo...

Heads-up for Utrecht folks: apparently there's an extreme right protest happening tonight from 7pm-ish, going towards ACU: nos.nl/artikel/2603... Be safe out there.

Heads-up for anyone using Amazon wishlists for anonymous gifting - an upcoming change March 25th will make it a lot less anonymous unless you change your shipping address to a PO Box or something else non-residential: www.404media.co/amazon-wishl...

A short film about endometriosis has won a BAFTA, bringing much needed visibility to the disabling condition. Endometriosis and adenomyosis robbed me of years of my life. Countless surgeries, blood transfusions and hospital stays. Doctors saying it was “no big deal”. It’s a very big deal:

Lieve mensen, vanaf nu gaan we weer zoals gewoonlijk elk weekend boodschappenbonnen inzamelen! Nieuwe mogelijkheden voor België staan hieronder. Er zijn nog heel wat onbeantwoorde berichtjes, maar die worden indien alles goed gaat vandaag allemaal beantwoord! Fijn weekend en hartelijk dank!

I paid significant taxes in DE. It was 100% worth it, and my quality of life was never better.

it’s very difficult for me to reread old pieces of mine, but I am sharing this for the Olympics, for nostalgia, for Asian American women of a certain age, for little Asian girls everywhere gift link:

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

Y'all, go watch Wonder Man, the new MCU show that got no press. The first 10 min are cringe but just setup: the rest is worth it. Don't look up anything beforehand, just get started: only 8 eps of 30 min each. It's so, so good and holds up till the end! 🤩 (Unlike some of these Marvel shows...)

Anoniem: “Ik ben degene die via jullie een andere koelkast kreeg, nadat er muizen in waren gekropen. Ik wil via AMM graag nog even getuigen hierover, want wat was dat een stortvloed aan emoties voor mij. Allereerst het feit dat dit gebeurde, want niemand verwacht dat muizen 1/7

FYI Americans: if you had Canadian grandparents/parents: you may be Canadian

Overigens gun ik bi mannen de ervaring van Heated Rivalry voor het eerst zien. You need this in your life. Bisexual representatie is er niet zoveel als het om mannen gaat, en verder is het fucking wholesome en super queer en heet en lief. Gun jezelf een escape in deze fijnheid. Come to the cottage.

One of the parts I genuinely don't like about being Dutch: somehow, fully following the stereotype, my weekends end up being booked months in advance! Which always means I just end up having to plan the next thing another weekend out from that, and so the cycle continues. 😭

I just want to play #boardgames, flirt with women, and eat snacks but NOOOOO I have to fight nazis

So I'm a Product Owner again! 🎉 I worked as an Information Advisor at this hospital for 2.5 years, then this PO opportunity came by for the integration platform that I've been so excited about that I already did a conf talk last year. Thrilled to bring my PO industry experience to the hospital! 🔥

I know it's important to talk about the Epstein files and trash everyone involved, but please consider putting a content note on your posts. Just put "CN: Epstein files" at the top of your posts so people can voluntarily skip or use as keywords to mute/block.

This is hopeful as a new direction for the DSM: edition.cnn.com/2026/01/28/h... Mainly: "One of the bigger changes going forward is that the APA will invite people with a lived experience of a particular diagnosis to sit on the APA’s committees and shape diagnostic descriptions." About time! 🔥

Yes. Joy inspires us to act. The precious moments we have for ourselves and each other are what we are fighting for. Joy and love keep us human, and that is what they want to take from us.

Look, activism isn’t all done in grand gestures but people just supporting each other in small ways.

I already loved Anna Akana's online videos, but just saw her live on stage and oh my goodness, she's great! 💜💜

Important thing to know that a lot of folks do not: You should not wear your jewelry in or around chlorine. i.e. Don't wear it in pools, while you're cleaning with chlorine products, etc. Doing so can weaken the structure of the metal, eventually resulting in your pretty gold ring shattering.

Mochten er mensen zijn die in de omgeving van Kerkrade (NL), Bergen op Zoom (NL), Leiden (NL), Haasdonk (BE), Wemmel (BE) of Kortrijk (BE) wat voeding/booschappen kunnen voorzien dan zou dat erg helpen! Er zijn nu veel zieken die wat hulp kunnen gebruiken om er bovenop te komen… Dank!

So I consider myself having some auditory processing difficulty: watching videos, I always need subtitles to follow it. So I always listened to audio-only stuff at original 1x speed. But I just accidentally put a podcast on 1.5x speed and am suddenly having a much easier time following?

YOU ARE A TRUE WARRIOR. I AM PROUD OF YOU.

We hebben de afgelopen 6 jaar heel veel mensen kunnen helpen, tot Twitter X werd en mensen daar massaal vertrokken. Veel volgers die we daar nu lijken te hebben zijn er niet meer, de Belgen krijgen nog amper te zien wat we posten en we kunnen ook veel minder Nederlanders bereiken dan vroeger. 1/6

Crashing after an absolutely epic D&D session where we fought a pit fiend to rescue our friend's soul: we did it!!! 🎉🥳🤩

YOU MUST MAINTAIN YOUR STRENGTH AND POWER! DO YOUR STRETCHES.

this bears repeating: Grok is bad because it's creating NONCONSENSUAL sexual images of real people. Not because sex is icky and should be scrubbed from the Internet. The distinction is crucial at a moment when dangerous censorship legislation is bipartisan and widely misunderstood

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery

For years I would constantly tweet and tweet and retweet about politics. I didn’t help a single person doing that. It just eroded my mental health a little every day. I promise that actually DOING something, even one small thing, feels a lot better than reposting a million memes.

Posting about ICE’s actions this morning has made me lose followers Just in case there was some kind of confusion, here’s a reminder of a few of my opinions: Fuck ICE Fuck MAGA Fuck Trump

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

important message to all bluesky users

I’ll see yall next year ✨

I don't know who needs to hear this, but opposing GenAI is not about opposing technology, it's about opposing capitalists. GenAI is not a technology: it's a massive automation of theft, masquerading as an industry, run by grifters. Don't hate computers, hate the capitalists behind the curtain.

I forgot where I found this, but great read: www.blog.lifebranches.com/p/aging-out-... Funny, a lot of my therapy was focused on me claiming space for myself to go through this Great Unfuckening, just from personal life experiences. But it helps to see the broader experience among women my age.
