Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

If it's a talking filibuster, then the Dems should get up there and read the Epstein files. Show them what the powers that be want women to be doing instead of voting.

hey yo i wrote a reported culture essay for @motherjones.com about solarpunk it was incredibly fun talking to a bunch of solarpunk thinkers and artists! the magazine commissioned some lovely art for it too le voila: www.motherjones.com/environment/...

I just want to point out that’s Doug Wilson speaking at the Pentagon. Doug Wilson wants: the 19th amendment repealed, non-Christian religions outlawed, the death penalty for homosexuality, women barred from working or holding office, blasphemy laws, and one party theocratic rule.

HIS NAME IS NAZGUL!

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

Today in Portland, I was able to go to a circus arts place (shout out to Superhero fitness) where there were kid and adult classes and open gyms happening at that same time. So my kid could do parkour while I did hammock. I wish there were more places with that kind of set up.

The horror stories rolling in from Minnesota are just the tip of the iceberg. This 20-year-old, who's lawfully present in the country, was arrested for being Latino, then jailed in a filthy cell where he couldn't even sit down. 18 days of illegal detention. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

Raise your hand if you were a Millennial labelled "gifted" by your school and their "answer" to that was to occasionally take you out of class to do these in the cafeteria.

Hugo noms are open, and I'd love to put forth "Be Kind and Rewind" for your consideration. One year ago, on Valentine's day, Wyngraf published a story about queer/trans love that I coauthored with my lovely partner @kaitlinschmidt4.bsky.social. I'm a hack, but she made our story brilliant anyway.

If these boxes crush me tell them I died as I lived.

You don't have to outrun the lion you just have to outrun the other guy -- Jeopardy style.

Today I've been reading about the Brehorn law system, the indigenous law system of Ireland, which is the second oldest recorded law system after Sanskirt. It had significant sections dedicated to land stewardship and sustainability. But OFC, the English then rolled in and cut down all the oaks.

The layoffs across games and games journalism have been disproportionately affecting the women in the industry, and even more so, black women. Support the indies that champion their voices before it's too late (& please share more in the replies) @aftermath.site @mothership.blog

We’re Done Playing! Standing up for Video Game Workers

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

This week needs to stop.

The horrors persist, and so do we.

Hi agents, I’m on the hunt for high-concept layered YA & MG novels! #MSWL For YA: romantic fantasy; dark academia; mystery/thrillers like We Were Liars or Firekeeper’s Daughter; thought-provoking horror or gothic; romantic coming of age like Aristotle & Dante & Last Night at the Telegraph Club 1/3

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

I'm going to win.

Like, it's just really easy to see that I am not going to be able to keep up with the LITERAL REST OF THE WORLD in output. Even without AI. The way people like me win is by writing memorable books that relate to the human experience.

Honestly if this goes through I will commit whatever resources I can to disenfranchised women into a position to vote again.

Seeing Vance booed at the Olympics is the medicine I need today.

Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

"I wonder if this thing that was designed from the inside out to be able to do bad things was being used to do bad things."

The post-industrial period of a developed economy is characterized by three phases. Until the 2010s, we were in a service economy. Now we are in a scam economy. And we are about to find out what phase comes next.

OKAY GANG BUCKLE UP we are PUBLISHERS MARKETPLACE OFFICIAL for WICKHILLS Thank you to @mkcurry.bsky.social and @jonathanstrahan.bsky.social and @torbooks.bsky.social for making it happen! Prepare for me to NOT SHUT UP ABOUT THIS MOTHERFUPPIN BOOK (when I am less busy)

Posting this here for reasons 😒 If you happen to see any Finji ads that look distinctly UN-Finji-like, send me a screencap. If you are someone who writes intelligently about something like "massive company running ai versions of paid ads without small company's consent" idk, maybe reach out.

If this were true then Daily Wire/Ben Shapiro would not have attempted to make a conservative version of it. (Google "Chip Chilla" if you have never heard of this.)

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

I don't say this enough: narrative design is just so neat. Coolest job. Nothing else like it. Happy to immerse myself in tangling and untangling story logic, constraints, team dynamics and player experience. The conditions lately are tough, but the work is still the best.
