I’m sick & tired of being sick & tired.

No one prepares you for the unrelenting monotony of chronic illness.

For the lack of breaks. For the suffering. For the people who leave you behind.

For the bone crushing fatigue that no one other than fellow disabled people will ever understand.

Thanks to the lawsuit over book bans by the Department of Defense Education Activity, we now know the nearly 600 books banned in US military schools worldwide.

The list prominently features LGBTQ+ books, books about racism, puberty titles, and comics.

I've talked about this before: modern social media (Bluesky excluded, for now) strives for "walled gardens" where creatives become a feature of the platform, instead of an entity fans can follow wherever they go. 500k followers don't mean shit if links to your Patreon/Bandcamp/etc. are suppressed.

When I met Ryan Coogler several years ago, we were standing in a group of people chatting, when a woman with visible hearing aids walked up, and he casually began to sign the whole conversation so she could participate. She mouthed “thank you”. He nodded and just kept doing his thing.

‘Sinners’ on Max Will Include a Black American Sign Language Version

Max will debut Sinners in the U.S. on Friday July 4, when viewers will be able to watch it two ways: by 1) streaming the exact theatrically-released version, and 2) choosing Sinners in Black American Sign Language (BASL). It’s the first time a streaming service has interpreted a film into BASL, Warner Bros. says.
