One of my favorite things is getting to tell friends who are new to NYC that the subway "stand clear of the closing doors please" voice is a trans woman named Bernie Wagenblast and she's amazing.

Whenever someone is like "Musical Theater is a Lesser Art because it aims for Mass Appeal and cashes in on Pop Culture trends..." I just want to grab an air horn and yell "WHAT DO YOU THINK SHAKESPEARE WAS DOING?!?!"

When he died, my grandfather chose to become a rock.
A sea rock, jutting out close to shore, dark against the dappled light of the waves. [continued in alt text]

When he died, my grandfather chose to become a rock.
A sea rock, jutting out close to shore, dark against the dappled light of the waves.
I don’t know why he chose a rock. I thought he’d chose something papery, us being Jewish, people of the Book, and all that.
I thought he’d choose to be a tree.
A great, thick oak, with branches that would hang over the wall he’d loved to look out on, a home to the little song birds he watched in the mornings.
But no, he chose a rock, a grand, craggy rock. The sort you could spot from a boat. The sort that changed only in how much of it was under the water at any given time of day. Silent but ever present, where water met sky.
But then, wasn’t he a grand, craggy base of a man? And us, the rest of his family, the dithery seabirds that wheeled above and around him. We squealed and squabbled in turn.
And in stormy times we settled upon his shoulders for shelter and he would let us, with no judgment of what wild winds brought us there.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:zynzvpaogr7syrk6i5qvf2on/bafkreibywisnrhis4jclq4llk4fzflvmniw474eelhucvmxcykrrczzi6y@jpeg)

one trope I could do with a little less of: when there is a fantasy oppressed minority, maybe stop making the ultimate big bad the extremist version of that oppressed minority. It's really developed a vibe of "yeah yeah racism bad but THOSE FOREIGNERS THOUGH..."

Outside of Chicago, on the grounds of a former armory, decades ago an alliance of various orgs began restoring the prairie, and at Midewin Tallgrass Prairie they imported bison to roam the prairie once more. I love to visit my very large bi sons 💚🦬

Remembering that time me and @artofchira.bsky.social, entirely separate of each other with no consultation at all, accidentally designed the exact same player character in Fire Emblem: Awakening.

I'm at the Target boycott, I'm at the Starbucks boycott, I'm at the combination Target boycott and Starbucks boycott
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.
