They say he has a spate of neurological issues, and, well, okay, but the relevant question to me is, "Are they NEW neurological issues?"

Sadly, not anyone I know. I did know a Catiban once, but that name came from The Tempest.

Oh, I'm so sorry! I can delete if you want. I thought it would make it happier that they were dancing against ICE!

This is my dance about how much transphobes suck. I learned it as a member of the Lesbian Avengers in 1993.

A useful survey, but be aware that it is only intended for ppl residing in Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Its part of the larger research project into CYP GI care that includes the PB trial.

If you can find the time, please share and fill out this survey for the James Lind Alliance. Mumsnet goons are apparently bombarding it with nonsense responses:

@lilymarswrites.bsky.social and I have been following the developmental adventures of Tula-Tu, a tiny, several-hundred pound elephant born earlier this year at the Oregon Zoo in Porland. (See seems remarkably unaffected by the war and burning.)

Wonkette's write up of Graham Platner perfectly demonstrates why I love Wonkette:

"Having empathy for Trumpers may feel optional, but having empathy for the people whose lives are affected by government is essential."

Fuck yeah, Wonkette. Fuck yeah.

While I kinda love this pin, it's useful to know that octopuses do not feed on whale fall. However relatively shallow-dwelling octopuses frequently feast on crabs, & crabs will eat whale fall. Thus littoral whales could die in shallower water attracting crabs that get attacked by the cephalopods.

Whale Fall pin 🦀🐋🦑

A photo of a large gold-plated enamel pin photographed on top of a lichen-covered rock. The enamel pin features a whale skeleton covered with various deep sea creatures, such as octopuses, hagfish, a giant isopod, a crab, and chimaeras.

Noticed this blurb:
"Bikini Nuns
A fearless trio of nuns is out for revenge. After being wronged by ruthless men, they trade their habits for high-powered weapons, taking justice into their own hands."

OTOH it's not a feminist revenge fantasy.
OTOH it's a revenge fantasy and men die.

Shruggie?

The first time I read that I missed the part about "with her baby IN her placenta".

These people are so reality-challenged it's difficult to know what to do with them.

Fuck fascism.

Crip Dyke @cripdyke.bsky.social · 11h

But here's an alternative: let's not.

Let's not let Blitzer's sexist support of fascism's central message stand unexamined, unopposed.

Let's not subject ourselves to a man.

Let's not let the Leader make the decisions on our behalf.

Let us lead ourselves to lives of consequence.

This is the message of Blitzer to MTG and to the women of the United States: nothing you do matters, so you might as well stay home and vacuum.

And it's the same message for all citizens: nothing you do matters. The Leader will manage it. The Leader will crush dissent. Stay home and vacuum.
