Have you ever written something that people praised, only to read it again and determine that they must've been being nice to you? I'll just be spending the day editing. Don't mind me. #scriptsky

Huh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Phb8...

Does your head hurt, too?

I made the switch to Fade In from Final Draft. I'm a little slower, because I'm still figuring things out, but already like it better. #scriptsky

Started a new project today. Only 5 pages in, but we'll get there.

Hating women is central to the political zeitgeist, patriarchy internationally, & the entire so-called West. And that includes trans women, disabled women, migrant women, etc. You can’t be a Good or Right enough woman for these people to stop hating you, personally & systemically & violently.

Nothing— and I mean nothing— about this decision is more than the bare desire to harm.

Can't stress this enough: nobody fucking cares what he was up to

Remember when Vice President Harris bought a few quality cooking items at a French cookery store with her own money and legacy media melted down? J.D. Vance literally used the Army Corps of Engineers to manipulate a public waterway, so he’d have an easier time kayaking and it’s a blip on the radar.

I'm too exhausted to have conversations about whether these ads of pretty white people bragging about their genes are eugenics coded, but I do know that it only took <5 years for companies' PR strategies to go from advertising diversity and featuring black ppl and trans influencers etc to this

At least David got a raise. We wouldn't want him to suffer.

And the colonial practice of testing plans/technologies in poor communities is alive and well

I'm never NOT going to be confused as to why folks are so adamant about banning Trans athletes while saying they have an unfair advantage yet have no problem with co-ed sports teams, almost like it's not about a question of fairness but a blatant act of bigotry and hatred towards Trans relatives.

It’s not too late to start masking. You don’t have to do it alone. You won’t be the lone masker. There’s an engaged Covid cautious and disability community who will help you. There’s local mask blocs who provide respirators to those who can’t afford them. Covid is still here, and masks work!

I also think that it's important to keep pointing out that many of the corporate boards, University Trustees etc... SUPPORT FASCISM.

"More than 60 companies, including major tech companies like Google, Amazon and Apple as well as health care giants like UnitedHealth Group and CVS Health, have agreed to share patient data in the system." It will use AI and "monitor wellness": apnews.com/article/trum...

We hope you have a Wonderful Thursday! This is our Mutual Aid Thread for July 31st. If you are in need you may post here and I will try to share every need I see, as well as ask our members to do the same. If you have no need, please consider sharing! #mutualaid #helpsky 💸💕

32 months before super tuesday, this “just making observations” thread & nearly everyone replying to it is working their hardest to let me & everyone i love be excommunicated from society because “we can’t possibly win any election against the worst people alive without a human sacrifice.”

okay i’ll do it

This is a fascist takeover of the school. The owners and operators of Brown obviously decided that becoming an academy for the new elite of the fascist movement is their best path towards continued profitability. So it's up to all of us to make them regret it like nothing else in their lives.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social - As a fellow Michigander and a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, I can't express how disappointed I am. As far as I know, you're a politician, not a Scientist. As a cisgender woman, I am not inferior to a cisgender man. Science doesn't support it and its not true.

So far there have been 1170 books collected. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated.

Saying trans women have an advantage against biological females is saying that cisgender men are biologically superior and it's fucking demeaning, incorrect, and dangerous.

A doctor’s comment on the article: “People infected with Covid, particularly numerous times, are at risk for degenerative problems of the nervous system, cardiorespiratory disorders, and immune system pathology. No one knows what the long-term outcome will be.“ www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/o...

You know what's hot? - wearing a mask - paying sex workers - using people's preferred name & pronouns - contributing to mutual aid funds - standing up for minorities

I was headed to LA for work, and now I'm not. It all started when I set boundaries, explained my consent was violated, and then my project got defunded/cancelled. Well, I heard that message loud and clear.

RFK at his confirmation hearing: “I am not anti-vaccine” After RFK confirmed as HHS head: - CDC flu vaccine campaign pulled - Childhood vaccine schedule reviewed - Federal funding to schools with COVID vaccine mandates withdrawn - Meeting to update flu vaccines cancelled

SSA employee to me re: 50% staff reduction: "Can say unequivocally that such deep cuts to SSA, which is already at historically low staffing, will cause significant to extreme degradation of services, very likely including checks missed and individuals dying before their claims can be processed."

When it comes to "generative AI," there's still a real question of whether there's a there there

The guffaw I let out on the plane when I saw this on IG….LACMA truly is a real one

The fact that some of the richest people are also conversely some of the dumbest people on the planet, makes my head hurt. I'd rather have a tractor roll over my face than listen to Elon prattle.

BREAKING: Two sources tell @theprospect.bsky.social that the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration has asked for a plan for cuts to 50% of the workforce, including at the 1,200 field offices that serve millions of beneficiaries. prospect.org/health/socia...

100% This.

With another set of news headlines about political elites using “””Roman salutes””” I just want to note that the Nazi salute means “I want to murder your family” and the n-word means “I want to lynch you.” That’s what they mean, they make me righteously angry, and I won’t let anybody minimize them.

Sat in a work meeting and explained that I didn't want to do something and laid out my reasoning. My consent was violated and I was coerced. I explained that and then after I was forced to apologize, I was told saying I was coerced was "too harsh." @domevans.electricmarshmallow.com

The things you remember at 3 am: In my 10th grade History class, there were five of us girls with the same name. Our teacher had us all sitting together, so it was basically a bunch of us in rows. It's like they put every Sophomore with our name in the same class. Why am I remembering this now?

The DC police last week sought to arrest a sitting member of Congress, a Florida Republican, for physically assaulting a woman in DC. But the US attorney’s office didn’t sign off on it. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/f...

It will be forever sad to me that so many people don't understand the concept of consent.

until they can identify what DOGE is and who runs it, the messaging should be that it’s a criminal enterprise

I don't like the narrative that "fascism always loses". It implies that the natural state of the world is good, and that we do not need to actively work to bring about that good. It gives people an excuse to do nothing because, surely, fascism will lose. but it won't. Not unless we actively fight it
