"I'd be remiss if I didn't also point out, as an American trans person, that Labour's bathroom policy is significantly more bigoted, invasive, and restrictive towards trans people than anything that any American Republican red state has managed to implement."

Look at these! They're fantastic. "Unbury your gays" goes extra hard.

Apparently a thing I like less than people who can't lift a finger to look things up is people who think that I can't lift a finger to look things up.

Bonus because I have no chill: I HATE when other autistics, especially autistic men, act like they can't be held to account for bad behavior due to being autistic. Grow the fuck up.

Milo's history of stealing the time and labor of others is a long one, and it just wreaks of entitlement. He is a 20 something year old. He should be dealing with this like a grown man and not tossing his workers or friends(?)* to the mob. *friends don't do this to their friends. 4/4

The way Milo skirts accountability by doing the whole, "I'm just a mentally ill smol bean. I can't be held to account. Elrose, deal with it for me for free," irritates the shit out of me. Elrose is an adult who can make her own decisions, but ick. It feels like manipulation. 3/4

I don't have an Etsy/shop because right now idk if I could handle packing and shipping orders with the spoons I have, so I don't have one. I don't have a Patreon because I don't think I could keep up with it. Don't do things you don't have the spoons for, esp if you're taking people's money. 2/4

Today is the last day to comment to the FCC that LGBTQIA2S+ names, stories, identities don't need a warning label. This new potential rulemaking is an attempt at criminalizing the mere fact of being trans or otherwise queer, in the name of discrimination, bigotry, and persecution. Tell them no, now.

So, I am selling on the #Depop app, and buying as well. I charge much less bc the fees are lower. This is where my mutual aid money comes from, alongside other side gigs. I have a lot of inventory... Come shop for cute, #vintage, #1980sjewelry cheap, or gift ideas! www.depop.com/cutejewelryn...

Remember we have their ear right now. They're already requesting public comments on debankment practices. Go file.

this took me about seven hours to do and is the least intensive cover I’ve done for the series so far~

Urgent medical appeal Hammam's brother Abood has an intellectual disability and suffers from frequent epileptic seizures, as his medication is expensive and they cannot afford to buy it for him Any donation—even a small one—could make a real difference for Abood's health chuffed.org/project/1580...

If you're in the northern United States and you're thinking the pollen seems bad this year... yes. Every day recently we've been in the medium-high to high levels. If we head into fire season without this relenting, everyone with asthma will end up in Urgent Care. Allergy meds and air purifiers.

Last night I dreamed that I was in high school gym class doing line dancing and got yelled at for doing so while holding a bowl of water and spilling it, even though they told me to hold it. This is what being autistic feels like *laughsob*

Apparently it’s a hot take but autism being an explanation for certain behaviors doesn’t negate you from consequences.

Watched the last/latest Milo Winter video, and my biggest/main takeaway is that I hate how he constantly passes the buck/blame to those around him. Milo has ghosted everyone due to his "mental health." My thing as an author is don't do things you don't have the spoons for/can't do on your own. 1/4

My child shivering with illness upon a sheet of plastic.I stand utterly helpless–with no medicine,no warm bedding Another piece of my soul withers before my eyes&I possess nothing but my tears&adamp compress.Please,dont turn away from our pain;help me save my child🙏😭💔 tinyurl.com/baraaZ2 ✅️Molly shah

This. God, this. It is such a manufactured panic and it started the moment they lost the fight over gay marriage. Support trans rights because it’s the right thing to do and also because this is all just a fascist push

My children go to sleep hungry and wake up crying from pain. They endure burning heat by day and freezing cold by night. Insects and illness never leave us. We are slowly losing our strength… Please, any help could save a child’s life here 🙏😓♥️ chuffed.org/project/1781...

Istg being given $200 and let loose in a museum gift shop might fix me. You never know until you try 😂

people do not know how to sit with discomfort. people do not know how to handle when a show or a book or a comic or a story or any art that they could possibly engage with doesnt align with their specific vision or their own personal moral code. everything has to be sanded down and sanitized

Wellness grifters and influencers faking real life. There's a lot of room between eating beans out of a can for dinner and restaurant style meals. My younger cousins also seem to think they have to be in the mood for whatever they're making. Just eat what's in your fridge. SETTLING IS FINE

These pills broke the pill cutter -__- My partner had to cut them into quarters with tweezers and a steak knife.

Indie creators shouldn’t have to turn into emotionless cryptids that appear once in a blue moon to share their works and otherwise have no online presence in order to survive *checks notes* creating a popular cartoon. But I don’t know how else they’re supposed to navigate this bullshit.

Trump is at 61% disapproval per Fox News’ recent poll. Everything is on the table.

if you're cis and you are asked by your management to police bathrooms, "can you confirm in writing that you are ordering me to approach customers to discuss their sex?" is an email no manager wants to reply to

This. A blog post by @kjcharleswriter.com about character building also applies to world building: Less is more. It has to make sense, it has to be logical, but too much and you box yourself into a corner or bore your reader to death with context they don't need.

I just looked at this picture versus the video of her having a pup cup on Tuesday, and her face looks sooo much better. Last Friday her face was bloody and sore. Radiation burns heal so fast

Katie's post-radiation crusties are falling off. Her face looks pretty good for only being 2 weeks post treatment. I do wonder if that spot will regrow white instead of black

Keep windows closed & air filters on when possible (& keep hydrated) KN95 masks or better do a great job of filtering out smoke & airborne viruses Even if doesn’t smell smoky, harmful carcinogens are still probably present. Studies show wildfire smoke have both short & long term health impacts

I'm back on my Coral Island bullshit, lol. Currently wooing Rafael, Raj, Lily, and Millie

Oh boy howdy yes. Everyone whose publisher failed to register copyright even if, say, they were CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGED TO DO SO, why not let the Authors Guild know? @societyofauthors.bsky.social will you be following this up too?

It hasn't rained in so long that I forgot what rain in the gutters sounded like, and I had a moment where I thought one of my dogs was about to throw up only to realize it's gurgling rain 🫠

thinking about the startling amount of cannibalism themes and mentions in Victorian literature as one does

Absolutely badger your senators. Become the badger. Become a family of badgers in their phones.

You know, for someone campaigning really hard to make us forget about Laken-Riley, she seems to be giving us lots of other things to remember

By the way, if anyone has a favourite documentary on prehistoria/neolithic life they'd like to recommend? Mini docs on youtube are good too. Archaeological/anthropological studies are a plus, ancient aliens and AI imagery a big loss.
