I am going to link to organizations that I know for sure are helping trans Kansans. This thread will develop slowly as I either know people or will vet them. At this point we have not heard from anyone being helped via relocation resources. These exist, but I assume they are overwhelmed.

Local autistic woman somehow still shocked by how accurately esteemed autism parody publisher targets her specifically

If you’re not on the Poster’s Madness livestream, what are you even doing tonight??

My mom was hospitalized this weekend for a large kidney stone and a kidney/bladder infection that has spread to her blood stream. We could use some help because this is going to absolutely wipe out her savings. I'm doing a 25% off sale on ebooks on my site through the 28th with code HelpMom25!

This is an important project that will be a lot of fun for us & the community. We've done murals in Philly before. We're experienced! I just need help from people like you! $10 buys paint rollers $75 buys a bucket of primer $150 rents a power washer Anything funds labor givebutter.com/KenzoMural

This will be on your best-of list this year if you take advantage of the deal!

@jessiemihalik.com 👋🏻 I’m reading Silver & Blood and curious, how did you choose the phrase “kissing Deir” for death? I know Carey uses a similar idea in her books & other authors have too. Do you know the origin? Online searching was not useful on this point.

Bree is the one who turned me on to these books and they are so great!! It’s why I’m now working on the entire Kelley Armstrong blacklist lolsob

I’ve never read a product description/manifesto/philosophy that was such an instant-buy for me.

Current is an interesting new RSS reader that doesn’t function like an email inbox. “There is no count because counting was the problem.” [terrygodier.com]

One of my favorite reads of 2025 and a book you could easily read again and again!

It's Wednesday, the baby won't wear pants, and there are good audiobooks on sale! All links to libro and chirp are affiliate links, which means I get a small cut of the retailers' profits. They may be on sale other places! Click as you like!

I had a whole thread about the Minnesota Dildo Rebellion yesterday, which I ended with famous quotes about revolution updated to the current moment. I was very proud of my work, but I think only one person saw them. BEHOLD MY WORK, BLUESKY.

I’m not reposting stories from that disreputable rag. I did, however, finish my 22nd romance this year — in KU, written by a godsdamned HUMAN. We’re going to win.

If you are a “lawyers fucking up in court” enjoyer, you may like this thread, where a judge said that the lawyer’s approach to research was “redolent of Rube Goldberg”

This is a hilarious post AND as your local zoo enjoyer, I am obligated to inform you that Detroit in fact has an awesome zoo with *two* tigers!

I am *delighted* that I got asked to be “in conversation with” the brilliant Mazey Eddings this Friday (2/6) evening at 6pm at the Tustin Library! @mazeyeddings.bsky.social Come join us! (I am not on socials much anymore and am grateful to any who can amplify this in SoCal bookish networks)

We watched THE WRECKING CREW because I love action comedies and I like almost everyone in the cast and the Hawaiian setting is lovely. What a deeply unpleasant, predictable mess. Some good action, otherwise hard to watch. Sad.

Stop telling me what that small mammal saw, hoping for spring is my emotional support delusion.

Just a reminder that while we did finally add the whistles to our shop, we also sell many other cool things and would love to send them to you! I'm scheduling this thread to post some of my favorite shop things while I'm off doing Whistle Stuff! http://thebrokencirc...

Our friends in the twin cities probably didn't expect to wake up to an empty wish list, but they have added some more requests now! You know what would really piss off the weirdos? pop-up leftist supply depot fuzzy socks. 💓

Abolish ICE. But also consider and interrogate things you may believe are default to this society, like borders, incarceration, unimaginable wealth, conditional humanity.

This is bullshit on multiple levels. As someone who was at a protest where a conservative white man pulled a gun on us and was not even detained, much less executed in the street, it feels extra bullshit.

Oh, this is a very good deal!! TJ’s books are awesome.

We’re supposed to go to work tomorrow?

Let’s empty the whistle wishlists, yeah? This is one thing I can do from far away.

i do genuinely think we need to jail every single person currently working for ICE

CALL FOR MUTUAL AID: My tattoo artist was detained yesterday with a friend. The agents broke a car window. ICE still has custody of my tattoo artist's phone. They're raising funds for legal support to get property back and fix the car. V3nmo: @ kayla-felten "lizzie and ray" in memo.

I’ve been reading Beverly Jenkins’ Blessings series this year exclusively through audio on Hoopla via my library! I give my hoopla and Libby loans a workout and save tons of money that way.

I grabbed these earrings, of course, and saw the note that THE @mostlybree.kitrocha.com is a GUEST ARTIST FOR DRAGONS???

Picking back up this thread as I have been reading tonight!! I love that Tan is tackling some messy parts of magic systems, like: - gender - consent - the spectrum of good and evil They also had a nice little section about how many tops and bottoms are too rigid about their roles 😂

It’s hard to be far away and seeing atrocities happen. It helps me to buy beautiful filament and know that it’s helping communities protect each other.

Today is my 40th birthday and what I would actually like is up to the universe (if it happens on my birthday I will NEVER shut up about it), but if you wanted to buy some cute art while we wait that would also be neat 🥰 measuredandslow.studio/shop

@vicmmic.bsky.social being a Stargirl child makes the most sense of anything I’ve ever heard

Extremely my shit 👀

@authormsbev.bsky.social You had me screaming in my car this morning as the audiobook of Chasing Down a Dream wrapped up!! I’ve never been so tempted to call out of work so I could immediately start the next book in a series.

One thing I love about Peculiarity Shop that these threads showcase so well is the variety of jewelry styles! With multiple artists, you’re likely to find something that speaks to you!

Pez in an incredible human who is consistently helping others and they are in a really tough place. Please support if you can 💜

This is the early activation of the Quarterly Social Media Estimated Tax Payments Warning System. If you make quarterly estimated tax payments, your Q4 2025 payment is due Thursday!

a reminder, again, that AltNPS is a grifter account run by people who have no affiliation with the National Park Service and indeed who never did have any affiliation with the National Park Service. They have no sources, they have no information, they are purely there to scam you.

Spite and joy, forever and always.

The Cardiff Lions do an annual Drag Rugby charity match for children’s charities and it’s as beautiful as you imagined

Listening to new-to-me music today was a bright spot. Expanding my listening is also a goal for this year! (Listen, the autism loooooooooves familiarity, it’s hard.) Drop an artist/song/album you like and I’ll add it to my list to try. The more the better!
