New Rule, no getting married if you've never had a best friend No, getting a boyfriend and calling him your best friend does Not count

Sunset in the park.

There's always somebody somewhere Who needs flowers tonight

Why? It's far easier. I'm gonna sound like Smokey the Bear here... Only you can tell that story, paint that picture, perform that dance, etc. We are each unique. So is our art. No one else can do it exactly like we do. They're not us. That's what makes it priceless. To us and anyone who loves it.

Final thought. Don't give up. If you have these disabilities & want to do things ppl say you can't bcs you have 'em? Stop for the day when brain/body hurts, or when mental health is in a bad place. Stop if you need to for a time. It's okay to take a break. We *need* rest. But. Don't. Give. Up.

I have less than $30 in the bank and no idea where I'm going to get the money to buy my kids Yule presents. I went to uni so I'd never have to be this poor, y'know? But disability doesn't give a shit. If you learned anything with my probably overlong ramble, anything you can spare is so greatly

End of the day final feed time for our farmily of farm animals

Teenager on train: I'm not a feminist. Mum: Do you want to own things and decide who you sleep with? Teen: Yeah. Mum: You're a feminist.

As in, it’s not usually a conscious thing you try for but an outcome of all the little things you do to make it work

Adjacent to this; a lot of artists starting out ask about developing “style” and I think style tends to be the bag of tricks you pick up trying to become the most YOU artist.

I think most artists hit a point where they’re like, well if I can’t be the best artist, I shall be the most ME artist.

I find it funny that my immediate thought was that this question for many people gets asked time and again throughout their life But also that some of us are peculiar enough that we never actually had a choice

It’s disheartening to see Teen Vogue dissolved into Vogue and its political team let go. For years, it was one of the few mainstream spaces that made room for honest, radical commentary on justice, inequality & the world we actually live in. I’m grateful it gave me a home for so many of my op-eds

This book is EXCELLENT and I can't recommend it enough Really, Kingfisher's knocked it out of the park yet again

FOOD BANKS do Wholesale Purchasing, they’ll get more for the dollar donated vs. giving food. Just an idea: I’ve had a lot of my families ask for a note added to their loved one’s obituary: “In lieu of flowers please make the donation you would’ve spent on flowers to [insert local food bank]”

Spirit Plate is not just another cooking show centered on celebrity or competition. It’s centered on the ways food connects us to who we are and where we come from. redpopnews.com/inside-spiri... #redpopnews #spiritplate #pbsfood #pbs #indigisky

Workers with @kickstarterunited.org end their six-week strike victorious, enshrining 4-day work weeks and salary floors while also adding protections against gen AI replacing human labor.

If anyone would like a chance to see me in person I will be at Duke in NC talking about Indigenous Comics and Futurism. I will be sitting atop of a beautiful pile of comics, books, and beautiful beautiful stickers.

If you feed art into AI, even as a joke against AI, I will auto-block you. No questions asked, no exceptions You chose to value your two seconds of "wit" over the hours that someone spent of their life to create the art you just spat on.

Incidentally, the barilla pasta sold stateside is mostly made in the states, so, this isn't gonna hurt him, it's going to kill little family companies though

This book is EXCELLENT and I can't recommend it enough Really, Kingfisher's knocked it out of the park yet again

To different degrees and in different ways, but SSI and SSDI payments can be heavily restricted based on cash gifts and assistance, receiving support through gift cards and physical purchases from wish list is sometimes the only support disabled people can receive safely.

Seriously a problem. I don't know how many applications I've filled out, also let's not talk about how sneaky some of these companies are in falsely representing themselves. I remember filling out an app, doing a phone interview and "moving to the next level" for a zoom interview. I was so stoked!

Why do the console ports for all of these remastered fail to map a button for hearing the voice options during character creation? It's such a weird choice

or stated otherwise: we should BE principled ourselves and seek to elevate those around us who demonstrate skill & capacity for leadership

I think talking immediately about how it's too bad Zohran can't run for president or how Lander should run for Congress is missing the point. we don't need to elevate individual heroes as high as possible, we need to find as many principled people as possible and empower them everywhere

No. Snub them harder. Shame them. Don't set yourself on fire for someone who hates you.

I'm teaching my daughter a phrase she can use the rest of her life; "If I'm too much then go on den find less"

Trump’s EPA wants to lift a ban on asbestos. Asbestos is banned in over 50 countries due to comprehensive research showing that it causes cancer. This is another policy move that will make America sicker.

in a world built on disability justice principles, absolutely yes. even if you’re not disabled — understanding our bodies need and deserve care and that we don’t have to push ourselves for the sake of productivity. heat impacts a lot of our bodily functions and our emotions!!!

Anyone know of any short story publications that might specialize in cosmic horror?

I am disappointed in every last one of you for not telling me we are getting another Highlander

“You don’t need a respirator for pollen, take antihistamines” “No point masking for smoke unless you’re wearing it 24/7” “They don’t work for Covid unless fit tested” We’ve failed at harm reduction. Even if something isn’t 100%, if you reduce risk & harm, that’s worth it!
