shoutout to all my fellow queers for whom family of origin sucks around holidays (and those of us who are still working on finding that found family). everything is pretty bad right now but being queer is still fucking amazing and you are amazing and not alone and i love you and am grateful for you

imagine what we could be doing if the federal government wasn't actively trying to throttle the growth of this industry

A good morning to organized labor

In the early 1990s, Drexciya, a Detroit-based techno duo imagined an underwater kingdom populated by the children of pregnant women thrown overboard or jumped voluntarily into the ocean. Drexciya’s founding myth inspired Daveed Diggs' band clippng. to write "The Deep" youtu.be/yybfqEfuxPc?...

Starting the Ken Burns American Revolution doc, and going to track my thoughts here. I remember little of this era from AP US History, and mostly focused on the Black loyalists during the class on this for my Master's in US History, so I'm excited to learn.

read this thread and then read @swordsjew.bsky.social's Wild Faith. i say this as a (relatively) well-adjusted homeschool kid.

Here is something we could do: what if we stopped being fucking weird about autism

An interesting article on the possible early 20th-c. origins of Wicca, but let me tell you, I AM HERE for any 'British-German noblewoman and occultist [named] Lady Walburga Paget'. Even better, her pseudonym was 'Ermengilda'. Because of course it was. publicdomainreview.org/essay/roma-l...

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

major snowfall = disabled folks walking on the street w mobility devices bc it`s the only clear path = societal failure

Dan knows more about how Congress works than anyone I know, so this is an interesting thread.

Furthermore public transit teaches you how to live with temporary minor annoyances and cars teach you that you're god's most special baby and your moment-to-moment comfort is the only important thing in the world

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Back when I was infiltrating early Nazi Telegram, I very quickly came to the conclusion that it is outright DANGEROUS to cultivate on-background relationships with Nazis as sources. Because I encountered too many researchers who were clearly compromised as a result of that sort of contact.

Yesterday Fresh Air did an interview with Robert Draper, who has covered Charlie Kirk. And this section on Draper's relationship with Kirk said a lot to me about modern access journalism, and the soft coverage we've seen in the wake of Kirk's death.

Wondering where we are in the learning our lessons cycle: are Dems going to learn from Starmer and Carney winning historic victories and immediately shitting their pants, or are we going to get our own pants shit moment in 2028

Tried to sneak a photo of a cute doggo and accidentally had long exposure on and I believe I have created man’s greatest expression of art

i found this article to be a concise summary and full of good links to other reading.

Women don’t care about the Cybertruck. Women only want one thing; and it’s the entire 1920s electric interurban railway system

In general: Somebody who's replying to me saying stuff like this, please go read a book or two by a trans man. It'll help, I promise. I love Thomas Page McBee. Even Elliot Page's memoir is a place to start. And: PLEASE, watch Disclosure on Netflix. Read Susan Stryker's Transgender History ...

Charlie Kirk’s shooter was a 22 year old white cis man & 4chan groyper. Charlie Kirk’s last words were “gang violence”. he was claiming Black people were inherently violent right before his life was ended by another white man. Here is a description of Kirk’s terrorism by one of his many victims:

Just got my Covid booster in PA! 🥳🥳 Some takeaways: -I scheduled at CVS a minute clinic, not the regular pharmacy, but NP said as of last night the pharmacies have opened up appts too. -If you looked before and things were booked, check again--NP said some stores are adding roving nurses to keep up

please boost this method of content warning! i was able to look at a spider by choice instead of jumpscaring my phone out the window! thank you!

Results so stunningly clear they inspired this classic xkcd (xkcd.com/2400/):

saw a truck i have never in my life seen before and it was so cool. the person very recently restored it, it was immaculate

Also man they added some god damn *music* to this thing

in Act 3, you learn that the old LRPO🏆NFES theater in Act 1 is the seat of power...all that residual fear from the horror film screenings....

You know what I find scary? The militarization of cities. Armed men covering their faces and kidnapping people into unmarked vehicles. The National Guard on every street corner. You know what I don’t find scary? Homeless and disabled people, men eating sandwiches and immigrants.

I know I’m a broken record on this but…Putting so much of our transportation infrastructure into accommodating private automobiles was a civilization ending mistake. I genuinely think long daily freeway/stroad commutes have done more to corrode society than literally anything else

Cell-site simulators (CSS, also known as Stingrays or IMSI catchers) are devices that masquerade as legitimate cell-phone towers, tricking phones within a certain radius into connecting to the device rather than a tower. Our tool, Rayhunter, can help you find them. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

“[service or place] is not wheelchair accessible” in 2025 is going to make me lose whatever shreds of calm I had left. Looking at you, Europe, and your oh-so-sophisticated public transit.
