So, veterans are standing up against the administration’s tyranny, so you’re going to smear them. Fuck you.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

Free speech to them has always meant that they can say whatever vile disgusting racist misogynist thing they want with no consequences— but if you make fun of them online they have the right to sue.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
I refused to fly the flag at half-mast at work today. I no longer care if they fire me.

God, what must it feel like to see all the flags flying half mast last week for your kid killed in a school shooting and seeing them half mast this week for a dude who said actually school shootings are "worth it"

Not enough people know that you don't hear about the holes in the ozone layer anymore because an international agreement banning production of chlorofluorocarbons was wildly successful and the ozone has recovered since.

Change is possible.

None of this is inevitable.

We can choose differently.
My pre-ordered copy of the Verdance Tarot by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law arrived in the mail today. It is SO GORGEOUS I am speechless. 😶

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

If you actually have a reasonable budget to hire an artist for your project, TELL THEM IN YOUR INITIAL EMAIL TO THEM. Right off the bat. Here is the project, this is what I can pay, this is the deadline. We get so many time wasters it’s remarkably refreshing when a potential client is upfront
Also, miss your face you fabulous human.
Ooooooooh. Weekend at Bernie’s?
I’m a museum educator and I pride myself on being Mz. Frizzle.

Someone posted the other day, “Ready isn’t a feeling, it’s a decision.” I’ve been mulling that over in my head since. As a very stubborn, patient, determined person ♉️, it takes a lot for me to leave a situation and chart a new course but…

I’m ready.
