Okay, my follower count and mix on here is now such that I need to say this:

If you know me in real life, no you don't.

If you saw me at a place I can routinely be found, no you didn't.

Thank you for understanding.
Go help a sibling out.

And if haven't heard them yet, here.

And if you don't like ska, you should reflect on why you hate fun.
Ooh. I wonder if we can bulk-order cute ones. I'll look into that.

It is so damn jarring seeing an actually funny, charming politician

Let alone one with GOOD VALUES

They would even be dual-purpose if rolled and packed correctly!
Ooh. That's brilliant, thank you. That's going on the list.
As of right now, the plan is to divide them into Masc and Femme. We're going to knit and crochet the bags to sort by color. The budget max is probably ~$20 per bag.

Everyone gets stickers and buttons. Femme will probably get a nail polish. But what is a masc party favor? WD40?
Let's say a local queer org gives you a little trans care package. It contains syringes for hrt.

What else is in it?
I haven't had the bsky dream yet, but this made me remember the recent one in which I was trying to export challah as a pdf, and now I'm just having a quiet little laugh about brains and tech.
I'll level with you; when I first scrolled by one of those photos, I assumed it was fake. But now I feel exactly the thing you described.
I'm going to apologize in advance if a bunch of Deep Thoughts™ start making their way into posts.

Going through some heavy family stuff right now, which tends to bring on the overanalyzing. Plus, me and millions of my marginalized friends are about to start feeling the government shutdown.
Go forth and improve its circulation!
If you don't understand what happened here, please start with this book.

I did not write this. I have just become a one-person street team for it and if I could make everyone on earth read it, I would. It contains things everyone needs to understand as soon as possible.

How is it that I, a self-selected neo-Luddite, have known about this issue for a year, and this person learned about it yesterday
Dying my hair.

Checking myself all over for dye splotches before leaving the area of the dye towel.

Finding myself going "No, that's a bruise. No, that's a tattoo. No, that's another bruise," entirely too many times.
It'll go on the back, I promise
I figured putting the exact sense of humor on the business card would probably serve me well in the long run
I think I've finally got the new business card.

If a leggy stranger you were talking to in a bar handed you this, would you keep it?
Hey! Sorry it took me a minute, but I plugged "plucky" into an online dictionary and clicked synonyms like I was falling down a wikipedia rabbit hole until I found the word: Roguish. So, in effect, you were closest without going over. DM me a mailing address so I can send you a little prize.
Let's be honest, they all look the same
It's almost ironic that AI is so much like a bad dream; you can break the illusion by trying to read text.
I understand why you all like this, but it is AI slop. Count the eyes on the frog. Or the stripes on the flag. Note that the costumes have no face holes. And my favorite: The sign that says "Love War."
This is a lot of new followers.

Welcome! I hope you have a lovely time here.

I do not automatically follow back. I'm not here for numbers. But if you post original and interesting things, especially pertaining to creative work or left politics, there's a good chance we can become friends.
Some folks from LA No Kings moved immediately to the next action. Still peacefully protesting. But now there are fewer of them, and it's dark, and they dared to be where the state doesn't want them to be. So the cops are doing this.
Los Angeles, CA -

Absolute chaos resulting from LAPD charge using batons, horse mounted units, “less lethal” projectiles. Protesters going in every direction. LAPD themselves don’t seem to know where protesters or press are supposed to be.
