I lurk and I like stuff, I guess sometimes I post too 😅 (he/him)
Remember the rule: being friends with Bree is basically grounds for diagnosis in and of itself!
I will confess that we have a few self-diagnosed neurotypicals, but the question is how long that will last. 🤣

Today's whistle will be a collection of filament ends and this random sample I acquired at some point and know neither the source nor the age. I'm sure it will all work amazingly

Y'all, we did it. 💕 This crew of chaotic nerds has sent half a million whistles to people requesting them, for free. With your help!

Need whistles?

Whistle Brick!!!
Good morning from the Whistle Avengers! I just marked the 1,000 I'm sending to fellow organizers in Alabama as shipped, bringing us over 150,000 whistles shipped in February alone!

To celebrate, please enjoy some pics from our various printers, showcasing a few of our favs.

You can sing "Pop Up Leftist Supply Depot" to the tune of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"
Do....do you guys maybe want this? Because it would be really funny.

I'm sure there is tons of research on this because capitalism and marketing and stuff but I would like to know: why are (nearly) all messaging/social media apps blue and white? I'm sure there's some psychological reason but what is it???? Links/synopsis welcome

My whistle bin is a taaaaaad full (I'm doing a drop in a few days). Luckily I have another! (not pictured)

It's true! I did ONE (1) In-Person meetup to provide whistles to someone who requested them through the linktree email. She told me about an upcoming protest to protect trans kids access to their hormones/treatments. It was down the street so I went. I met leaders in 3 other organizations.
It's a side effect, but I'm seeing printing whistles act as a useful on-ramp for a lot of folks who are pretty new to engaging in political activity other than voting and yelling at the news.
I think people often wonder this, and it's a great question, so let me explain the advantages of 3D printing whistles. There are many.

The 3D printing effort started from one of our organizers who started by sourcing mass-produced whistles.

Whenever my tripawd boy dangles or otherwise displays his lone back leg, I cannot resist grabbing it. I also steal the other one's paws and tail, he is very tolerant of my nonsense (except when he isn't)
If you don’t annoy your cat do you even love them really?

I got the stabby ducky for white elephant in December and it was (unsurprisingly) a huge hit. Grab a murder duck for yourself and all your friends today!

Email sent "by" VP of [something idk] to whole company: "please make joining 'all hands meeting' at 7 AM a priority"

Me: absolutely the fuck not, I'm not even awake then

(I never attend them anyway, but the audacity of "prioritize inane meeting a SEVEN AM" is sending me rn)

Why is it easier to find clothing for dogs with pockets than it is to find clothing for women with pockets??!

People have literally offered to pay and we're always like "no, please we just want to give you the whistles"
Me: Hello, may I please have some free whistles?

Bree’s whistle project: Sure thing, they’re on the way.

TikTok rightwingers: lol nice grift

Me: ????
it was funny though because I had a couple comments on the whistles that were basically "LOL GREAT GRIFT I BET YOU'RE MAKING A FORTUNE ON THOSE DUMB LIBERALS" and they really do live in a dark & twisted world, don't they? the way folks are showing up for each other is beyond their imagining.

Y'all wanna see a dead body?
Do you think that telling a disabled American that our medical system sucks is at all helpful, useful, or productive? Do you think this is going to be some kind of grand revelation to us? Do you think we are unaware of this fact?

Oh my God I hate the robot answering machines at stores. I am on Prozac and Adderall prescriptions and have been for many years. Starting about 6 months ago every time I would pick up these prescriptions they would call the on shift head pharmacist over to ask me if either was a new prescription.

Okay so the theatre where I used to regularly watch Rocky Horror had a shadow cast and Rules. They also had enough regulars (of which I became one) that The Rules™️ *also* had callouts. One of the rules was "you break it you bought it". To which the response was "Huge Porn!"
The neighbors across the street have a bay window and a huge TV.

The neighbors across the street are watching porn.

A) get some
B) big screen TVs give everyone kaiju dicks
