It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Nothing good comes from assuming the worst of intentions from any genuine discussion.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

hi, cis folks in california! this headline leaves out that newsom has another 5 days to sign these bills into law. if you’d like to tell him he should do that to protect trans californians, you should to reach out. he also has a phone: (916) 445-2841 want to know what to say? next post! 🧵

Witchy crows 🐦‍⬛

This is the same guy who was all "HEY CANADA, YOU CAN STILL BE FRIENDS WITH CALIFORNIA, WE'RE SO GOOD YOU CAN TRUST US"...

Want to pull out this slide: people deserve to know there’s a growing mountain of evidence finding more Covid infections = more likelihood of being left chronically ill. There’s a temptation to think that if you recovered ok last time, then you will next time too, but that’s not what the data say.

"that's not funny, no one should lose their lives to gun violence" so true! that's what we've been saying all along. I'm so glad you agree

great advice going around for turning off autoplay videos but might i suggest

HEY LEFTISTS AND TRANS PEOPLE DID U KNOW INTELLIGENCE AGENTS TRACK YOUR POSTS, DID YOU KNOW LAW ENFORCEMENT READS YOUR POSTS, DID U KNOW YOU'RE ON LISTS, ANYHOW I AM HELPING BY JUST NOW INFORMING U OF THIS BRAND NEW INFORMATION TO U TO WARN YOU TO NOT POST "LOL CHARLIE MERC AMIRITE," FOR UR SAFETY

Changing the narrative on suicide requires systemic change, shifting from a culture of silence & stigma to one of openness, understanding, & support. For #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, we're sharing resources for anyone who needs them. If you or someone you know is struggling, there is help available.

Did you know that your city almost definitely has a deal with the phone app "Libby" where you can enter your city library number and get access to an enormous number of ebooks? This is great because if there's a day you don't want to be on social media, it gives you somewhere to sink your attention.

Unrelated to any current happenings, but, if you've got a lot of intense emotions about something, I highly suggest writing them down on a notebook and not on the internet.

It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.

Please continue to share and/or donate if you can. Any help will help us pay the bills to keep things afloat. More info on my health will be updated on GFM soon. Thank you so much for being amazing and patient peeps. You are the reason I'm still here. gofund.me/941e7c61

Trans friends and family - I love you so much. We're going to get through this. Also a reminder that they target the racialized members of our community first. We white trans people must protect our racialized siblings, always.

Enough people said they wanted to see the final slide deck, so I took the time to put it on my non-teacher github so I could share it. I didn't end up getting in trouble. I ended up being encouraged by a colleague to share it with my dept chair, and he liked it authorblues.github.io/lecture-slid...

Fuck censorship. They're coming after you next, whether you make porn or not. I have never sold NSFW services or artwork, yet here's my termination from Stripe! Fully SFW, innocent headshots of furries = adult content. This is what we've been trying to fucking tell y'all this whole month!

MasterCard is perfectly willing to continue to process transactions for Roblox, a platform that is literally facing hundreds of lawsuits alleging child sexual exploitation. But sure, it's us artists selling stuff with adult themes who are tarnishing their brand. Make it make sense.

The quote at the end of this CTV article about the Air Canada strike is chef’s kiss/fire/mic drop:

I know it’s a frivolous thing and times are rough, but this tired mama and caregiver would really appreciate it if generosity came in the form of Pokemon Scarlet and DLC. <3 dravenheart.carrd.co

We're beyond excited to announce our newest charity speedrunning event, GDQueer!!! 🏳️‍🌈 GDQueer will take place Oct. 31st - Nov. 2nd and run submissions will be open from Aug. 28th - Sept. 14th! Stay tuned for our charity reveal coming soon 🤫

hahahaha shit there was a miscommunication and they thought I meant I would pay the rest today and I made an arrangement to pay the rest in a week and I am getting paid about half of that in that time so please omg if you can help I really need it now

it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous

Out of the woods for my bank account for now,but still need some help to get through the rest of the month. Food and supplies are generally not covered by disability, as the majority of what I get goes to rent. 500/1100 ko-fi.com/jebwrench

To summarize -waves are not seasonal -vaccines are waning -people are getting long covid -it’s still not an endemic disease -very young kids are at increased risk because they didn’t go through the initial vaccine series Oh and it turns out, Covid Cautious people have been right the whole time.

Hey everyone, I'm taking a huge leap and moving to a new province to go back to school and finally get my degree. I'm really close, but I need a bit of help with the upfront costs. If you're able to help or share this, it would mean the world to me. Thank you so much!! #crowdfunding #mutualaid

“She was not the only developer who reported the company singling out yuri content.” Games journalists really dropped the ball on itchio targeting yuri content, both SFW and NSFW The censorship of Toxic Yuri Game Jam hasn’t gotten any coverage from the games press

The UK speedran straight from porn to educational material in the regulation-to-censorship pipeline. We were warning people of this kind of thing but it happened faster than I expected.

I still can’t believe I’ve managed to keep working on the same thing for such a long time (ignoring all the comics I never fully finished). Work on the book really did a number on me though (the last two are before / after).

What's something your younger self needed to hear?

don't like posting on this subject but i do find the actors' statements on this as funny as they are galling. "i understand your anger and hurt. i do. my plea to you is this: let me get away with it. i am saying the magic words here, so pls let me get away with it. ok."

When I said the various Rowlings and Linehans of Britain were assuming and hoping for the public to act as the unpaid enforcement arm of their crank movement, this is precisely what I meant.

So awful to have another person taken from us. I was happy to have been able to spend some time with him at RPGLB 2025 <3
