@skeetsapp.com hiya! I have “Hide repeating posts” selected, but I still see the same re-posted posts over and over. Is there something else I need to check off to make it work? Thanks!

listen you could keep giving money to Disney, the company that won't let trans people be acknowledged in cartoons, or you can give it to me, the gal who's building an entire queer magical girl universe stocked full of trans women and lesbians and enbies. It's a better use of your money!

French Canadians! This is a template letter you can use to let your reps know you don't want Bill s-209, Canada's attempt at an age verification bill

can we all just lay back and enjoy the words "anarchist enterprise" for a little while

I'm once again searching for a space in NYC where I can curate a month-long exhibition (Fall 2026 or Spring 2027). Putting it out there because I sometimes get some great space connections from folks on here.

Happy equinox/Mabon (pick your favourite!) to those who follow such things!

I’m gonna be an utter snot/unoriginal git and say it was the first Jamaican Blue Mountain beans I bought and brewed forever ago.

People who cut down active fibre through totally preventable accidents/staggering incompetence, take out service to thousands and then scamper without even an anonymous call can - I submit to you - go fuck themselves. With their chainsaws, to be clear.

We have a big Latinsky update today. Recently we announced that the #AddToAfrolatinsky hashtag will add posts to our feed. Today, in partnership with @rude1.blacksky.team and @blackskyweb.xyz, I’m thrilled to let you know that #AddToAfrolatinsky will now add accounts to Blacksky’s feed as well.

A pitch for those of you canceling Disney+/Hulu this week would be to use that cash and subscribe to PBS/PBS Passport. Public media is foundational to our democracy and supporting @pbs.org is just about the best value for your dollar. Plus, there are so many British mysteries!!!

Once again for those in the cheap seats : Canada is not somehow free or safe from the rise in hatred and fascism. There is a clear object example of how easily and *swiftly* freedoms can be lost and authoritarianism can rise. Nationalism and bigotry is one of the cornerstones supporting them.

This is is most definitely one of those things that should go without saying, but using the $$ saved from streaming to support creatives (especially those from marginalized communities) via Patreon, Kickstarter, tip-jars etc sends a strong message of support for our own along with the boycott.

Sending love to my trans peeps out there fuck the administration cis folks: donate if you can southernequality.org/tyep/

This story is not getting the attention it deserves in fact it should be so shocking that it took over the CK story at this point. However, you would be hard pressed to find more than a couple people who even know what happened

Pam Bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism. The right cannot think coherently so instead of making their own studies, they censor legitimate ones. But don't worry Pam, I saved it for you web.archive.org/web/20250911...

I would also recommend subscribing to @laurenshof.online's connectedspaces leaflet b/c they drop a bunch of tasty nuggets of what's new in atproto, ex: connectedplaces.leaflet.pub/3ly3zwysa4s2j ^I learned about @ngerakines.me building if this than that for atproto in the notes

I know it’s all fun and games, but when we make jokes based on “if it’s not from the Champagne region, it’s just sparkling wine”, we’re reinforcing artificial divides, and that’s how the terroirists win.

@skeetsapp.com Is there some way to keep the post composing window open in a reply if one goes away from the app for more than a few seconds? It just reloads the original post without even saving a draft. Extremely frustrating.

@transrights.northsky.social Is there anywhere aside from GitHub where folks can chat/ask questions? I loathe to suggest a Discord, but some equivalent?

Kind of blown away that I haven’t seen any Horst Wessel commentary/comparisons yet…

Psst. Our Capybara Pronoun Pins from our 2023 Kickstarter are discontinued, and we need them out of our shop so we have the room for new stuff. Want two pins for $8? Go get 'em. They're buy one, get one, no code needed, as long as they last. (gotta put 2 pins in your cart for the discount to show.)

Please signal boost if you can. I’d appreciate it!

Today’s brutally exquisite destruction of my heart has been brought to you by the team behind the new Trinity comic. In particular Tom King’s writing, but I would be remiss in leaving out the art/lettering team for the delightful representation of the chaos implicit in a super-powered kid & her pup.

Are you a marginalized author (or the editor/agent/publicist of one) who has a trad pub YA or adult SFF/H book coming out Sept 2025 - March 2026? This book critic wants to know about it! Small press strongly encouraged. bookjockeyalex.com/contact/

Age verification? This was the first guy I ever got my hands on.

A German teen told Meta's child safety researchers his under-10 little brother had been sexually propositioned multiple times on its VR platform. Meta deleted the evidence. New internal whistleblower docs indicate that was part of a broader cover-up: www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Hi! I have a newsletter. It's free and comes out once a week, not always on the same day. I write pop culture criticism, queer rants, memoir, and interviews with interesting people. It's not the same thing each week, but it's usually something pretty compelling. buttondown.com/charliejane/...

Rule by a person who believes that AI & robots will save humanity, calll it “Wall-Egarchy”.

As Brad Moss said: Spread it across social media. Don’t let the MSM censor reality. Via Ben Rothenberg: More news breaking at Bounces about Trump's visit to the US Open men's final. The US Open has sent an email to broadcasters, obtained by Bounces, ordering them to censor any reactions or […]

Look! #KindleBookGiveaway!

Read this. ‼️😳 Lori is not a librarian by the way. Animating one doesn’t make it so.

Oh is there a new British Bake-off series on Netflix? medium.com/@LeavittAlon...

Gonna need cis folk to be extremely vocal and actually take action on this. Things are escalating month by month and it's only going to get harder and harder to rebuild these rights. Act now to protect trans people, do not wait

Happy Friday! Please read my trans Portland rock band magical girl novel! "Magica Riot" is getting a sequel real soon, so go ahead and get in on the fun now! I'm less than a month away from my layoff date so writing will soon become even more important to my survival! 😅😅😅😅😅 magicariot.com/buy

Thank you! I have a few I'm gonna link if that's okay! Starting with:

i'm a trans guy getting top surgery in a few weeks, trying to cover out of pocket costs and lost wages. thank you!!!

Please spread the word! and YES it's also evidently three bux at Bookshop!! bookshop.org/p/books/on-r...

Just give Alexandra Petrie a Pulitzer already. "Florida is the first state to take the courageous step toward decluttering itself of excess children, but under the inexpert guidance of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., other states may follow."

Still available:

I bet the folks over at "The Free Press" are going to have a field day with this one!

Gonna repost this because it actually does matter, and potential surrogates need to know their rights/have them matter, but pretty much all the big content warnings (aside from NSFW) apply. It’s an ugly story, and - at least so far - little chance of a happen ending for anybody involved.

Once again thanking **fuck** that I ditched MS Office ages back (except at work, notes the pity).

hello!!!! would you love to come to this all-virtual convention that runs all timezones?! i know i'm going!! i'll be doing a Chit-and-Chat for anyone who's ever had a burning question like: "Jordan why?"
