This has been an ordeal, with today being an ordeal too. Laundry is inconsistently dry.. but compared to it literally dripping. 😭 I am now crashing hard & going to go try to rest. 🫨😵‍💫 Thank you for letting me be vocal for all day & honestly just hope things improve for my sanity’s sake.

For reporting, I'm looking to speak to a Black novelist whose screen adaptation has been scrapped or delayed for a long period of time. If that's you or someone you know, please email me at [email protected].

American Samoans occupy a strange in-between as U.S. nationals but not citizens. They pay taxes, have Social Security numbers, and can join the military—but they can’t vote. A voter fraud case in Alaska highlights their unusual predicament.

Marcus is still labeled as spam by BlueSky. Marcus and Percy need to pay for their room *tonight* plus food as soon as possible. $100 gets the room plus food.

All three of my little herbs in my hydroponic setup are officially sprouting!!! I can’t wait to watch them grow and eventually use them in recipes! Up next: cherry tomatoes in an outdoor planter, which I plan to purchase and get set up this week if all goes to plan!

1/ Tear gas was created to incapacitate grown men. So when I started seeing reports of kids hurt by tear gas deployed by federal immigration agents, I wondered how often it was happening. My colleagues and I started to count:

It's definitely getting worse as all my other interaction drops. 90% of my notifs now. I can't sustain this in increasing isolation. If those of you that aren't starving to death could start treating me like a person, that would really help.

My disabilities put me in a state of perpetual brain fog, making it near impossible to form coherent thoughts at times. Despite this, I still write everything myself, and I will never use "AI" for any reason because I have respect for my fellow people, and the world we inhabit.

there are plenty of us out here writing with chronic ailments and disabilities of all kinds without using genAI. I'm laid out in debilitating pain and fatigue most days of the month. still, I love/hate the process of wrestling with imagery and ideas to form them into words. that is what writing is.

From devastated Northern Gaza, my sick child and family struggle to survive through war and hunger.🤱 Donations have almost stopped, and your support is our shield. We urgently need €200 for basic needs.🙏 If 10 people donate €20 each, we can survive these painful days. 🤍 chuffed.org/project/1591...

I only have three rolls of rainbow washi tape left! (And running low on others). I'm working on getting a new washi tape manu and will restock these plus have new designs but it'll be a little while. So if anybody wanted to grab these, this is your head's up. 🌈 shop.breelundberg.com/category/was...

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

So yesterday, the president's allies unveiled a 22-foot-tall golden statue of him that they prayed around, and then the president confused Iran and Iraq, seemed clueless about his FDA commissioner getting fired, and called a reporter a bitch? Cool. Cool cool cool.

people generally don't know anything about agriculture, and I'm glad people get pissed when they learn how fucked it is under capitalism, but man destroying whole orchards of trees happens all the time, because the market changed, because bad water years, because greed, any old reason

do any religious texts mention golden idols anywhere

destroying the trees themselves instead of the peaches is where this goes from unmitigated greed into actual evil

If we're to have any shot of getting out of this, I really need my fellow white people to get past our apparently hardwired belief that something being illegal means it's impossible. Because I keep having the same conversation over and over again.

Have to finish tasks that will take me the entire day, which means I can’t babysit this trainwreck so we’re fucked lol I also mentioned multiple times as I get berated for not having a job: the job & staying sheltered are competing & it’s not possible to do both simultaneously 💁🏾‍♀️

Or, oh I don’t know, sell or donate the land and just let the fucking trees keep growing fruit?

the artistic process

Yeah so my antidepressants are the only thing keeping frequent intrusive thoughts and suicidal ideation at bay. If I lose access, without exaggeration my quality of life will plummet and my safety will be at risk. But I’m pretty sure there’s a phrase for this: “the cruelty is the point”

They say they can continue to garnish cuz I owe 67k for student loans. Even though I was recruited on a tuition waiver for diversity and education promised in fort Laramie treaty. And I paid off private loans with bank of ND. Remaining loans can be forgiven by federal.

This weekend is especially difficult for #adoptees, who are not only denied their mothers, but in many cases don't know her name, and are never given space to grieve that theft/loss.

Once again asking you not to use the term "adopt" for MA or crowdfunding. That context is colonial, and implies ownership. Literally immediately describes a power/respect imbalance, and normalizes legalized trafficking structures. "Sponsor" and "center" and "prioritize" are right there.

What stunning details! The artist Tuan Andrew Nguyen recreated one of the destroyed Bamiyan Buddhas with recycled artillery from the destruction

"In overcrowded displacement camps, in shelters exposed to the elements, and in makeshift homes that barely offer protection, they persist—not out of choice, but because there is no alternative."

The south was previously gerrymandered to shit and has now been sent to oblivion. And yet I keep seeing people write off the entire fucking south as if we asked for this.

This is a good time to remind people that the US has some of the highest covid mortality rates in the world. The “best they can” got millions killed and many more disabled. They’ve gutted the CDC. Put an anti-vaxxer in charge of HHS. Stoked eugenicist rhetoric. Hope is not a strategy.

Every suspected hantavirus case took a commercial flight to get home. They were in crowded airports and on airplanes. They weren’t isolated. They weren’t instructed to mask. No precautions were taken. The lack of precautionary principle is maddening. If you’re traveling, wear an N95.

then call me an algorithmist cos i'm on a roll and hate your slop, thiefy mcgee. ps - if slopists who use gen ai have no haters on this earth, then i have gone to mars.

You can't "earn" a billion dollars and none of their examples did. Michael Jordan earned $93m playing basketball. He's worth $3.5b today because of our meticulously-engineered legal, economic, and tax structures that prioritize accumulated capital and property over everything else.
