Guys, do not use the Discord Checkpoint thing (Discord's attempt at Spotify Wrapped).
It requires enabling them access to scrape your data, and has an alarming amount of private data being used for it.
Make sure you have these disabled.

So now, thanks to @elieyoung.bsky.social, I finally took the plunge on my birthday. There is, after all, this little series that I helped create and which will always be this amazing thing I once worked on - no matter how long I'm away from it.
Which is to say: happy Dragon Age Day, everyone. 😘

After months and months of working up the nerve to ask my therapist about even the possibility of having ADHD/Autism, she immediately shot me down with "You don't. I would have seen the signs."
Okay, but consider this: I've been MASKING THE ENTIRE TIME I'VE KNOWN YOU.

So one, this is sliding into eugenics. But two, they can’t do that. They’re lying if they say they can. “Intelligence” is not a single gene trait you can test for in an embryo. These are quacks making false promises to make money from people’s fears about parenting
I saw this ad on the train and I’m curious how yall feel about it… I’m very much in the center, but slightly more towards than against…

On behalf of trans men everywhere: This blows. It is much worse to be included as women than excluded from women-only things. None of us want this.
I'm sure it's all well intentioned by Girl Guides, but it's transphobic to say "if someone's biologically female they can join".
Trans men are men. They are not women.

You can’t tell if someone is disabled just by looking at them.
There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”.
You are not entitled to a person’s entire medical history just so you can decide whether to believe them or not.
People are not faking disability, most are trying to fake being well.

Don't just ditch the corps that suck, drop some cash on your indie faves
A singer-songwriter friend would like people to know that while boycotting Spotify is great, it was also 16% of their income that is now cratering. So if you're cancelling Spotify, please pair that with buying music, merch, or live tickets directly from your favorite artists

"Thagomizer" in Japanese is, in fact, サゴマイザー/sagomaizaa, and you can imagine my delight when it dawned on me what the katakana I was reading represented.
Come to think of it, Johnny, what's the Thagomizer called in Japanese?

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

you would think this would be a daily huge story, the fact that the president has visible dementia. just a thing a reporter could write about
Trump: "I took my physical. I got all As. Everything. But they said to me, 'would you like to take a cognitive test?' I said, 'Is it hard?' They said, 'yes.' I said, 'Well, I'm a very smart person. Who was the last president to take one?' 'No president has ever agreed to take one' ... I aced it."

One thing that delights and horrifies me in equal measure about Frankenstein (2025) is the fact that it ends with a Byron quote.
