If you were at the Trans March in SF and witnessed police brutality, vehicular violence, or anything else, DM me or hit me on Signal @misoshnik.13 I’ll be writing about this for @lcrw.news

i text’d my wife that i was having a bad day and to cheer me up she sent me a picture of our cheese drawer in the fridge

Also when you pretend covid isn't a problem/was never real and just... keep getting infected as your brain slowly turns to Swiss cheese

A parasite that causes "explosive diarrhea" is spreading across the United States. Here's what doctors want you to know

the thing about third spaces is that you're supposed to, you know, not have to pay to exist in them. can't say that about bars nightclubs bowling alleys movie theaters (maybe marinas?). these are spaces that are declining because we're all broke and you need money to be in them.

bluesky bio updated to add "schism enthusiast"

Yeah eat shit you’re out of Hat Club www.npr.org/2026/07/02/n...

22 C* with a chance of thunderstorms later (*71.6 F)

Bluesky is allegedly horrible to use with a screen reader, so: If you know someone who uses a screen reader, send them this survey. It's THE strongest signal we have for how to build better experiences. #a11y webaim.org/projects/scr...

Lunch!

Mansplainers get the mute button 😊

I miss eating inside restaurants ☹️

me, frightened, to the cashier at bed, bath and beyond: what’s the beyond?

⬆️ Increase of tick-borne diseases in Illinois highlights the need to prevent tick bites year round. As ticks expand into new geographic areas, taking steps to avoid tick bites is the best prevention strategy. Read more: ow.ly/FVJ250ZjP5s

I'm not in the US but I haven't set foot inside a bar/nightclub, bowling alley, or movie theatre since covid began and without some impactful changes (HEPA filters! N95 mandates!) I likely never will again. Also wages are stagnent and everything is overpriced so (almost) everyone broke

The stage is falling apart at the rehearsal for Freedom 250's July 4th celebration.

Happy Disability Pride Month! Now more than ever we need everyone engaged in disability justice. Fascists target the disabled. If you want to fight fascism, help the disabled. Wear a mask. Get vaccinated. Fight for public health, housing and Medicare for all.

Hey Chicago! Chicago! CHICAGO! OVER HERE! Whatcha doing next Wednesday at noon? Wanna eat lunch while I talk on your computer about the ICE collaborator trying to buy your parking meters? AND what you can do about it? Because you can do something about it! Register: bit.ly/iceparkingmeters

One of the effects of COVID is viral reactivation (as best they can tell). I have absolutely seen a rise in shingles among ppl under 50. There’s probably a connection since shingles is reactivated chickenpoxy

The top is a French broadcaster in 2015 showing what temperatures could be by 2050 if we don't take climate change seriously and the bottom is what they are actually are today. Everyone pushing for more pipelines and oil instead of rapidly transitioning to (cheaper) renewable energy is a sociopath

A friend of mine was saying that he liked birds, but wasn't a *birder*. He later explained that he'd only seen four sparrow species since moving to Seattle. Sorry, mate, if you give a shit how many sparrow species you've seen, you're definitely a birder. Anyway, savannah sparrow & fledgling today.

My goth teenager kissed Waffles, and he’s pretty jazzed about it

Fuck it

Storm has stopped and air quality is good so we're going for a walk instead 💖

So I am reading this thoroughly meh book and I have the niggling feeling I've read it before but it's not in my goodreads or my list of books I've read and I don't know if I finished it, never finished it, or if its just generic enough that I read a different book just like it???

as always one must understand that when they say "women's safety" or "children's safety," they mean "protecting cis men's property from contamination or property damage." they mean "asset safety."

"Gender is dress-up and we can humour the freaks who want to be different, but sex is an INHERENT UNCHANGEABLE BIOLOGICAL TRUTH" and its consequences. Many cis people fully believe themselves to be allies of trans people when they espouse this view, even as it denies us dignity and humanity.

Blob

"Too often, gender fluidity is thought of as a “new” or even “Western” phenomenon. However, the reality is that countless cultures around the world have traditions and histories beyond the gender binary." The collaborative article for our #Pride 🏳️‍🌈 Spotlight~ globalvoices.org/2026/07/01/b...

This is cool (the first one especially)

❗ As a voting rights $ raiser, I'm doing two (2) personalized inscriptions of On Repentance + swag packs. Can send book + swag to different addresses. Happy to inscribe + send book to you (with nice words) OR (anonymously?) your boss, your ex, a lawmaker you pick... anyone. Bid here-- 1/2

Happy Disability Pride Month to all my friends, and individuals who have a form of disability whether it be physical, neurological, etc. There is a lot going on with the disability community at this very moment in our country & the world. But know that you are absolutely worth it.

I should do a workout because we're probably not going for a walk because thunderstorms but I've got wicked cramps and I'm dying

Anyway unconditional trans rights for all trans people including trans children

Canada Day is like a group project where half the class insists we skip the first few chapters.

I don't understand why bsky needs to know my age when simply posting here proves that I'm 38 years old

Disabled people, aided by the Black Panthers, staged the longest sit-in in American history in 1987, winning 504 protections. Just 3 years later we orchestrated the capitol crawl, in which many wheelchair users crawled and pulled themselves up the steps of the capitol to win passage of the ADA.

This is literally why there's a bipartisan effort to remove internet access from young people. It's an attack on queer people, leftists, and anyone who questions authority. They don't want our children finding out that MLK and Frida Kahlo were socialists or that Stonewall was a riot.

what if it happens on July 4th

We watched Sheep Detective and it was ... fine? Kinda soulless. Aggressively inoffensive, which is fine, but it feels like they wrote the plot and then just stuck a bunch of red herrings on top in the hopes that you wouldn't figure it out??

JFC Please do NOT feed other people's writing into the plagiarism machine!!

motherhood is so rewarding

I bent over to pet him, forgot I was holding an open bottle of water, and poured it all over the floor in front of him. now he is just staring at me like this

whenever he is sitting around looking upset we've started calling him "Upsetti Spaghetti, the Italian cat" and i'm pretty sure it just makes him madder

The 417 is washed out. Drivers are trapped in cars This is one of the craziest rain storms i’ve ever been through. Not just for Ottawa, but anywhere. It’s super cool that our leaders are all post-climate change.

They’re threatening to set off 850,000 fireworks over 40 minutes. The most anywhere, ever. With all the accompanying air pollution. Best case: “600 to 1,200 micrograms of PM2.5 per cubic meter in the Mall area. A worst-case scenario would see more than 2,000 micrograms per cubic meter.”
