What if we all split one of his chances, American creative industry? As a little treat?

Adoption class was extra super bonus dysregulating today; so glad I already agreed I get a bonus day off from writing if I need it so I can enjoy a late brunch and D&D instead of trying to pour the dregs of my cup out.

TLDR: We are drowning in loan payments. We want to pay them off so we can stop asking for help.

Please if you can't help, just share it, like it, or comment. Payments are due on the 3rd. Further payment info in my linktree.

Pictured: me and the evening plans that don’t involve THC and a television. Find your joy where you can, have a lovely weekend, and I’ll see you on Monday. 🖤

Thank you for the reminder because yes, yes it is.

I'm currently theorizing that is part of why the violence is ramping up right now -- they know they're at their strongest (not because they are particularly strong right now but because they know the holidays are gonna destroy their support and it's too late to fix it)

I once got QTed by a guy who saw a selfie of me making a specific hand gesture associated with pro wrestling in the US and Japan and decided it was made in support of Turkish fascism. I wouldn’t mind being warned of the context to other cultures but quoting me? Yeesh.

Tactical frivolity is a great counter to hysterical descriptions of cities "burned to the ground." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactica...

I’m writing one post I can just repost any time I feel like I have to comment on the current US administration:
These people are such whiny, boring, incurious, petty, unimaginative, pathetic little leaky bags of hot dog water and are incapable of being cool, correct, or worth your time.

The secret is a lot of them aren't *playing* them.
Source: I've had spurts where I bought an average of a new game every month.
That said, my game purchases are mostly sub-40-dollar indie games; the last full-price game I bought was Tears of the Kingdom.

Tyler Hayes @bytylerhayes.bsky.social · 2d

Two thoughts:
1: There is some evidence elderly sperm donors have higher rates of conceiving autistic children and they don't want to admit they're aging (read: weakening).
2: If autism happens naturally maybe demonizing us is bad, and THAT can't be true.

A theory about this I've seen floating around is that either RFKJ or 47 has had a kid diagnosed autistic (Barron is the name I've seen floated) and they are trying to conjure a way it's definitely in no way their fault.

Also, @jay.bsky.team needs to be made to understand that her company has been in violation of their charter and Delaware law ever since she and @aaron.bsky.team explicitly allowed Jesse Singal to harrass, dox, and threaten trans women on this site. A class action lawsuit is in order.

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 6d

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

i think as a transgender journalist, it's acceptable and makes sense for me to ask this

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?

I use clearsky.app.
And I appear to be on the same drama list as well as one just called “Yuck.”
(For a second I was accidentally looking at lists I have blocked and thought I’d ended up on a CK astroturfing list and was wondering where I went wrong.)

Good morning, carefully curated cheeseboards of Bluesky!
Today's kindness upgrade is homework for our Resource Family training and boosting some mutual aid requests; I need to remember this is *also* making the world a better place and conserve a spell slot or two.
What you're doing matters!

Oh no! Well at least it's closer to Friday?

At best, Miller hasn't been paying much attention to developments and got handed a bunch of money and/or a renewed sense of relevance from the sponsors of the festival and so didn't feel the drive to check into it.
At worst, he's choosing his profits over his colleagues.
SMH either way.
