Log 18: Brands What brands do you associate with? I’m personally not a fan of associating with brands in any way. Businesses don’t care about you even if they claim to— what they’re looking for is profit. So, I wouldn’t really say I have any loyalty to any brand. If there’s a cheaper deal and a…

Log 17: August 10, 2025 I haven’t been active around here- I have trouble coming up with things to say. It has been very difficult for the past few months. My mental health is on a consistent downward trajectory due to work, relationship, and life stressors in general— to the point where I heavily…

Log 16: Been a while. Hey, I haven’t been talking here in a long time. It’s mostly because I have had nothing good to say about my life as of recently. Do I sound pitifully Miserable? Yes. Do my antidepressants even work? Maybe. I’ve been on a low dosage for a while— like, 50mg. (For context I…

Log 14.2: Worst Autobiography opening You're writing your autobiography. What's your opening sentence? My first thought was legitimately: “Buckle up f******s, this shit’s about to get wild.” I wouldn’t recommend this opener because not everyone might appreciate the use of a slur— even if I could…

Log 14: Do you believe in fate/destiny? Saw this prompt and I thought it was interesting. Do you believe in fate/destiny? Short answer: No. Long answer: There’s no such thing as fate/destiny. To me, your life really depends on both yourself and other factors you can’t control such as what’s…

Log 13: Journaling app I came across a site called Penzu and went down a rabbit hole of testing various digital diaries the entire day. Poked my nose around reddit to get some insight from other people, too. Here are the ones I tried: Penzu - as mentioned before. I like how there's a web app, but…

The Revolution will be AI-icized

Jesus christ, was I giving him ideas?

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Log 12: Absurdity There's this quote I came across on Pinterest that I can't find anymore even after I scrolled for a while. It was something along the lines of "Ruining your reputation lets you act quite freely". It made me think. In many ways it applies to how I operate online. You see, around…

Possibly useful info: a lot of folks, especially people who've been here for a long time, don't have pronouns in their (our) user name because we use the Pronoun Labeler. (That way you can see pronouns even if the display name gets cut off!)

I wish whoever is running all these Dem's social media would be sensitive to the fact that we are all being actively traumatized multiple times a day. Tell us what you're doing to combat the coup or don't post anything at all and just work.

Now that I've made peaceful revolution impossible it's time to sit back and enjoy my wealth and power with no adverse consequences

Log 11: Projection onto Characters You can tell a lot about someone from the fictional characters they like or create. Especially if they tend to follow certain tropes, motifs, aesthetics etc. There are a few possibilities as to why they like the character so much. (That I could infer, of course.…

Log 10: Original vs Fan work Thinking about how I managed to garner a lot of hits on my post in my main account because it was fan work instead of an original one. The post has 90+ notes on tumblr, while my original work gets…5 notes at most. It’s to be expected, I mean…Who cares about characters…

incredible to have a president who appears to be speed-running getting impeached, and even more incredible to to have two other branches of government who are just sitting there watching it as if it is actually a livestream which they are unable to impact in any way

sorry if I'm being a little annoying about violations to the constitution, but damn it feels weird to be on the side making a fuss about that

I've assembled a team of the most horrible perverts and criminals you've ever seen and we're going to fix this country

This is incredibly fucking stupid

I have no sympathy for those who didn’t pay attention over the last 10 years and wanted others to suffer. Fuck them. They wanted fascism and so they now get to suffer the consequences and that includes some of us wanting nothing to deal with their racist, misogynistic, uneducated asses.

It's hard not to see what Elon Musk is doing as a soft coup. The world's richest dude is basically trying to take over the US government t.co/osw3wN4Taz

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

Special foreword by Karoline Leavitt

Let’s piss off MAGA by celebrating Black History Month despite their attempts to erase it! I want to read about punk pioneers like Pure Hell, Death, Bad Brains, Fishbone, DH Peligro w/Dead Kennedys, Poly Styrene, Don Letts, Mykki Blanco, & more ALL. MONTH. LONG. New punk artists too!

Welp… He’s gonna need a bigger sign

The Welsh told the Saxons this hill was called "pen" (meaning "hill"). The Saxons added their word for hill, "tor," and called it Torpen (hill hill). Later the Norse added their world for hill. So it became Torpen Haugr (Hill Hill Hill). Now the English call it Torpenhow Hill (Hill Hill Hill Hill)

Trans women are allowed to talk about our lives as lifestyle. Only cis transphobes are allowed to talk about them as policy.

This is why you don't design curricula around "jobs of the future". We can't predict the future but we do know what general skills and knowledge will be valuable whatever job you do.

Trump suspended all DEI hiring in favor of DUI hires

If you’re counting on people to “f*ck around and find out”, I think you may be disappointed. You need look no further than the COVID-19 pandemic. People literally died because they denied reality and justified putting themselves and others (even family and friends) in deadly danger.

I don’t know rep Velazquez(D-NY), but already I love her. This is how every Democrat should be reacting. The time for being polite is long over. Stand up! Speak up!

Medical research and public health policy is a prime target paulkrugman.substack.com/p/donald-tru...

Not sure how I missed this, but just another reason why I’m glad I cancelled Prime. I know not all people can cancel or stop using for various reasons, including disability . But, if you can…We’re #strongertogether! #corporateamerica #greed #shoplocal #amazon www.advocate.com/news/amazon-...

They cannot always tell, and they do not care because they want the power to declare people unfit, unworthy, unwelcome in a society they view as their--and only their--rightful domain.

There's a fascinating dynamic on here where people seem to think that there are trade wars that don't end in economic suffering for the other party and I'm baffled.

Hiring freeze ordered at US Dept of Veterans Affairs, which operates dozens of hospitals, 100s of clinics and veterans benefits programs nationwide

This is not just ending modern DEI, this goes all the way back and rescinds Lyndon Johnson's 1965 order that banned federal race based discrimination in the work place. This essentially ends affirmative action, which had been upheld, or expanded on by every President since LBJ.

The revocation of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1965 is a step backward for fairness and equity. As a woman of color, I know how vital these protections are to prevent workplace discrimination. We must stand against decisions that undermine equality and fight for inclusive policies.

Hey #TraitorTots, don’t forget, all the ugliness you voted for is going to be used against you along with those of us who had the sense to reject the dismantling of America.

The Trump administration directs federal health agencies to pause communications. Bird flu is part of that.

We've finally defeated cancel culture. Now people only get fired for criticizing the government
