Reminder: the ACLU has a boatload of actions ready against the GOP’s worst policies. I just signed my name to a campaign defending transgender youth. There are so many other issues you can help with as well, from abortion bans to data privacy. If you’re wary of links, just go direct to aclu . org.

I also saw this one first! I hadn’t even heard of “Somewhere Out There” until this one Storytime in 3rd(?) grade. We were discussing lullabies in kids’ movies. The reader asked for an example from American Tail and I’m like, “Dream to Dream!!! 🖐️😃”

Been focusing on short stories & #picturebooks as #selfcare. This #AuDHD Goblin’s been struggling with long-form focus lately. I did just start Katabasis, by R.F. Kuang, and have the new October Daye on my Nook. Just taking it slow, for now. 📚💙 #booksky #readinglog #fallreads #goblincore #labyrinth

The Abiyoyo episode hit me especially hard in the “Ohmigod I remember that!!!” zone. 🌈📖✨

NBD, just watched a few way-back episodes of #ReadingRainbow plus a brand new one hosted by @mychal3ts.bsky.social and my depression switched to “I wanna happy-sob from the feeling of core memories confetti-ing in my brain.”

Promotional graphic with a purple and blue fantasy-themed background and crystal-like formations. The image features two logos: the Wizards of the Coast logo in rainbow gradient colors on the left, and the Trans Lifeline logo in white on the right. Large bold text in the center reads: “Support Trans Lifeline.” Below, smaller text says “Tune in Oct 4” next to the Twitch logo.

The more people that turn up and show Wizards that supporting trans people is popular, the better. Make it inescapably clear to them who their players are and what you care about.

The mystery of medical diagnosis!
Anyone: Why are there suddenly so many AHDH diagnoses? Dr. Jen: Same reason there are suddenly more stars after we built telescopes.

I second Seanan McGuire. We can’t abandon or ignore the people (ESPECIALLY those who have the least power, like the kids being vilified just for existing) whom the GOP is actively, *intentionally* endangering. Washing our hands of the consequences is not an option.

I both agree with this sentiment, and feel there is no way in a generally purple country to stop shielding the people who made this choice while also ceasing to shield the people who had nothing to do with it. Children exist. Blue voters in red states exist.

At some point, Democrats need to respect the will of the voters and not shield Republican voters from the consequences of their votes. They have voted for Medicaid cuts.

All the OB/GYN units became legal liabilities with the Dodd decision. Which they voted for.

But Democrats are baby murderers.

LOL! 🤣 I mean, the Gan man does like to talk a big game. Still, Link’s expression is giving very “I’m not the one in trouble here…” vibes. ✨😈✨

We keep standing up. We keep supporting free speech. We don’t forget the obvious historical parallels.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

FFS. I noticed this on the Health & Human Services website as well. Right under the notice reassuring me that I was on an official gov website and “here’s how you can tell ⬇️” 🤣🙄😒

A #SpookySzn Tale, starring Me:

😭 Part Ten 😭

Epilogue.

Welp. I think maybe I’ll lay off the Big Girl horror for a while. Maybe stick to Goosebumps or The Addams Family or Death of a Unicorn.

Speaking of, I’m gonna go hug my pastel rainbow unicorn therapy stuffie now.

😨 Part Nine 😨

Vague spoilers for the Creepshow s4 ep “Smile.”

We’re fully in the deep end now. The Dread is blurry and swaying through the water in my eyes. Someone is screaming. The Protagonist is fighting for dear life.

And then.

Oh…

Oh.

F😱ck, I think.

Something something possible SPOILERS for the Creepshow s4 story, “Smile.”

The Dread becomes more solid. Like ice. I have a fuzzy picture in my head of how this will end.

Oh…no… I think, noticing a certain feature of the house. So that’s where…

[cue sound clip: “What’s in the boooooox?!?!?”]

The box contains potential spoilers. That’s what.

I’m getting frostier vibes as the tale continues. A character reveals a morally ambiguous chapter in their backstory. I kinda suspected it, tbh…

Caution: Still avoiding spoilers, but, well…you never know.

The balmy vibes intensify. Aww. That’s nice.

🌟 Flash! 🌟

Oh, right—almost forgot the story title. Photography reference. Clever.

The room gets a few degrees chillier…
