Normal capitalist greed is probably the answer but that’s unsatisfying.

If wot was cancelled because of politics, good. That means it was too much for the status quo. Too loud. Too full of women. Too queer. Too full of actors, crew, etc. speaking out against injustice and genocide. I think if I believe that’s really why, I can sleep better at night.

I have decided on a date and time for @sunflowersedai.bsky.social memorial service. Anyone on #WotSkies who wanted to come, please message me for details or if you can't make it, please donate to www.fmaware.org/donate/ in her name

Hugs. So many.

Man, I'm sorry, but reading all these AI generated essays from students, it just sucks all the joy out of everything. It's exhausting, makes you into a weird paranoid cop, grinds you down, wastes your time, makes you feel like shit about everything.

Fuck this shit technology and all its enablers.

During recent attacks against diverse books in libraries and schools, very few experts on children's books were consulted.

It's the same with AI and writing: scholars of composition and rhetoric have spent decades thinking about these matters!

How about consulting high school English teachers?

This does bring a smile to my face

Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government.

They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.

We must fight back.

Tonight on a NY1 interview, Andrew Cuomo described Zohran Mamdani as "an existential threat" to New Yorkers and the Democratic Party. I can't say strongly enough that this is despicable, dangerous, irresponsible language. I've never held Cuomo in high esteem; let this election be his banishment.

Hegeseth saying “FAFO” in his speech about preparing for war was a dog whistle to the Proud Boys.

Let’s hope these generals refuse to take up arms against citizens because the proudboys certainly won’t hesitate.

Was coming to say Locked Tomb

Dreadnought - Daniels is also a good one

Two notable fantasy shows were cancelled by the streaming services over the last few years -- #WarriorNun and #TheWheelOfTime -- and both of those topped our recent poll of cancelled all-stars that people want to come back.

I still haven’t forgotten those fuckers cancelled the wheel of time
I’ll never forget

I even changed my settings so it takes out the “this is audible” voice 🤭

I’ve been using Libro FM and the Libation app to download all my audible files 👀

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

lol I didn’t see it but now I’m pretending you just loved it so much you had to do it twice ;)

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries.

He said this out loud.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Also, if you get defensive over this, take a breath and examine why (internally)

THIS

anyway, reminder that Brando Sando is a mormon in good standing aka he tithes 10% of his income to a church that just announced they filed a brief saying that protecting trans rights infringes on their religious freedom ✌️

I’m going to miss her presence so much.

I’m sending all my love Sean.
