Are we going to let them get away with this? No. No we are not. So far, Netflix has not made any move to pull these shows. That means that, for now, our action should be focused on demonstrating to Netflix the value of these shows and counteracting the effects of the boycott. Here's my ideas: 🧵

Me, this morning: “Maybe tea will help me get my brain in gear this morning.” *Goes to the office micro kitchen. Puts a tea bag in a mug and stands staring at the ice machine, trying to figure out what to do next*.

This looks important. Opening the link the link to remind me about it when I’m awake🥱

HANG IN THERE! 화이팅! #art|#kpdh

Oh, for fuck’s (Weary). I guess I’d better hurry up and buy that new couch now.

This seems like extraordinarily poor timing🤨 Maybe wait until everyone is not actively mad at you to raise your rates? Follow me for more savvy business advice!

Ok, that’s enough hanzi. Time for a nap😵‍💫

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have made a HUGE breakthrough towards a UNIVERSAL antiviral. By targeting sugar molecules found on the surface of many viruses that SHARE structural similarities, they identified FOUR compounds that successfully BLOCKED infections from SEVEN different viruses.

Call your reps. We know that Dems will throw trans people under the bus even without the govt shutdown on the line. They need to hear from everyone but especially cis folks that this is not acceptable.

Maturity is typing up a careful, concise explanation of why someone is WRONG on the INTERNET and then deleting it, because it’s not worth engaging.

As a reader who likes Tor, reads many of their authors and follows their Reactor Magazine, this news increases my positive feelings toward the company🙂 Just saying.

Comment period ends on September 13

I’m in International Shipping No Man’s Land (Thanks, Trump😛) and mostly read ebooks, but I love this idea. (I suppose I could do this myself, but it’s a toss up whether free time or international shipping will be a thing again first😅)

My first thought was Star Trek: TNG (Obviously?). Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood also occurred to me. In “I should have thought of that one!” are Avatar: TLA and T. Kingfisher’s Paladin books, specifically, the Order of the White Rat.

The final hours are upon them! Help keep them reach their goal!

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

National Guardsman: “Sir, we should post a guard on the Krispy Kreme. Right away.” Commanding officer: “The Krispy Kreme?” 2nd Guardsmam: “Everyone knows donut shops are a hotbed of crime, sir!” Commanding officer: “…” Commanding officer: “Bring me an Original Glazed.”

so, to understand this story there are a few things you need to know - my cat, Gus, believes he is a trained support animal - he is not (he has relatives who are, but he is not) - he believes he is a seizure-detecting dog - he is not a dog - I do not get seizures

When I was in my mid 30s, I saw older women on the internet saying that, after 40, you are no longer obligated to give any fucks about what other people think. I have been trying to lean into this as hard as I can since I turned 40😄

Security guard at work: “Good morning.” My AuDHD brain, caught mid internal rant about shoes as I try to swipe my badge without dropping my breakfast tray: Shit! What’s the right answer??😳

I do, in fact, see other women talking about bra shopping. What an odd thing to get worked up about. I like Jockey’s Seamfree Cotton Blend Light Support Bralettes. 🧵

My blocked words list is not working very well today and I am tired of arguments where all sides are wrong and nobody is listening😩 Time to get off the internet, I guess.

Nimona: “Arm chopping is not a love language!” Lan Wangji: “Depends on whose arm.”

Status: WorldCon is happening and I’m not there, so I’m sad.

OMG Worldcon has a TEA BOOTH You cannot imagine how envious I am right now

They have fandom blends!! www.fridaytea.com/pages/summer... 😍😍

This is not a massive decision or any kind of change. Costco has never carried mifepristone in its pharmacies. An anti-abortion group is taking credit for something that didn't happen, possibly to generate disingenuous left-wing ire against one of the few corporations that hasn't gone MAGA.

“In a world where sex-bots are ubiquitous, people might view sex with another person as an exciting novelty, and would develop a kink for it” - @adapalmer.bsky.social. “My kink is sex with another person” - @wjadeyoung.bsky.social

Feels like "payment processor Stripe admits to being an anti LGBTQ hate group" should be an actual headline somewhere.

WWX: “Me? I’m Nobody.” LWJ: “We have to get married now.” WWX: “Okay🥰 I mean, WHAT?” LWJ: “You said you that nobody would marry me.” WWX: “I did? When?” LWJ: “When we were 15.” LWJ: “You are Nobody. You will marry me.” WWX: “Your logic is inescapable. We have to get married.” Polyphemus: *Retires*

Drop an old person that you’re going to turn into in the future.

I am imagining all of use swarming the fascinating bus, like this:

Spent the evening, trying to understand what’s going on with Mandarin vowels. Languages, y’all😅 They’re wild. But I think I finally understand what that “i” is doing!

Is there a term for the phenomenon where a borrowed word gets tagged with the native word for the thing? Like “chai tea” or “Torpenhow Hill” (hill hill hill hill). Brought to you by the bao buns on the lunch menu at work today.

Hey, so, TOTALLY not suggesting that RFK Jr. BACKS DOWN when we PUSH BACK, BUT if you’d like to call… HHS Toll-Free: 1-877-696-6775 HHS Direct Line: 202-690-7000 PLEASE share and consider calling your senators and representatives as well. NONE of this is okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

inside you there are two wolves: one wants you to be productive and write, the other is Sanctophrax, the Destroyer of Worlds. the first one is a metaphor and the second is an actual case of demonic possession. you need to contact an exorcist

#academicsky #medsky, please sign this. It is a plea to the UC system to "Do not sacrifice our strengths & our community, deeply nurtured & protected for over 100 years, to a deeply callous &unfair federal administration that will only ask for more". tinyurl.com/ucstandup Stand up, fight back.

This is now my standard set of authorial disclaimers: 1) No, not everything in my fiction is something I want/believe. 2) No, that sex scene isn't gratuitous, and that's not what "gratuitous" means. 3) No, I cannot stop people from blowing up the moon.

Hey folks - posting for a colleague, they're looking for Kenyan voice actors of any gender with access to a good remote recording setup. It's a paid role - if you're interested, please comment and I'll pass on your info (if you don't fit the brief, signal boosting is appreciated, thank you!)

Signal boost: OP’s elderly mother got scammed and is in trouble. If anybody who knows things about law or finance in Brazil has suggestions about what kind of recourse they might have, please pass that along to wwxwashere, who really does not need another crisis to deal with.

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Ao3 appears to be down😕 Oh noes! My emotional support angst! Now what am I going to do while I wait in line at the DMV?

We are deeply disappointed to see clinics across the country stopping gender-affirming care for trans youth in response to Trump’s Executive Order. The Trans Youth Emergency Project is here to support anyone relocating care after a clinic closure. 🏳️‍⚧️ transyouthemergencyproject.org

Yet. Another. Fake. Literary. Agency: Writers Literary. Among other things, totally false claims about authors and books repped, and images of supposed staff are stock photos. They're sending out fake publishing offers to writers writersliterary.com

No cheating. Your last saved celebrity photo is your therapist. Who is it? The closest thing I found was this accidental screenshot of part of a little Owl House comic. If it’s Luz, ok. Sure. If it’s King… well, it would definitely get interesting!
