Hello new followers! I'm your auntie who likes to remind you that you are enough.

I swear, I knit, I read and write romance and read almost anything, I am chronically ill. I post about anything and everything and fangirl over BTS and many other kpop groups. Kindness matters. Remember that.

I think @sarahjeong.bsky.social said it's because they devalue women's labor and a LOT of this Scary Logistics stuff comes from people who don't understand that basically all of the civic life they enjoy is created with the help of free labor, largely by women.
Tho I will say, in his defense, he's not the first person to be confused by how quickly the romance authors & readers can whip up finely tuned logistics out of nothing. 😂
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

TikTok is under right wing billionaire control now. Plan your exit strategy.
This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.

Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.

Well, here’s a link:

it's because not a single person in their like-minded circles would ever do anything to help them just because

which is also why they throw hissy fits when we say we don't want to be their friends anymore
This is flippant but i will constantly remind you that they want to say that any community organization is fake, a conspiracy, and needed to be taken down

That’s the point

Also, if you haven't been keeping up (I've not been here a whole lot!), my primary reason to #RecallMickey is to get this man who sponsored anti-trans kids legislation OUT. His party also voted to use the notwithstanding clause to strip legal challenges to these bills for five years.

Kids will die.
#RecallMickey is looking for more donations. We're nearly out of materials to distribute and need to order more ASAP with rush delivery. If you're in the Calgary-Cross riding and can donate $5, it'd help a lot! Calgary-Cross only. #ableg #abpoli #yyc #OperationTotalRecall

I heard folks are wondering about the shadowy cabal of billionaires who have been funding handwarmers in the Twin Cities.

Stay tuned, we have a new Twin Cities supplies wishlist dropping after dinner! Be the shadowy cabal you want to see in the world. 💓

She didn't sing it to me in rhyming couplets ("if he'll drive you to the criming he's a fed *clap clap*) but the thrust was very similar: if someone shows up in your group wanting to do a lot of violence, assume that person is there to get you in trouble. This remains a good rule of thumb.

Today's "Mr L is sick and my chronic illnesses are all flaring at the same time" lunch is Pacific's butternut squash soup with gf cheese tortellini mixed in.

I am so glad we bought a stool for the kitchen so I can sit while cooking.

So to sum up: ancient fact - we can identify brothels by floor-plans and artwork, but they are not usually associated with mass infant remains.

Contemporary fact: JD Vance is a liar and his supporters are every bit as stupid as he thinks they are.

This looks amazing and I need more dragons in my life so I bought it and am going to read it after I finish my Kate Daniels reread.
if you like the ace romance and humour of someone you can build a nest in by john wiswell, the messy-queers-fighting-for-justice vibes of the kingston cycle by CL polk, and the worldbuilding of sky on fire by jenn lyons then you’re gonna love the dragon next door 🌈📚 #booksky

The leader we need in these dark times.
Mamdani just showed up on the Weather Channel and cheerfully said if NYC students see him, they can pelt him with snowballs for not calling for a traditional snow day for tomorrow...

And I'm genuinely thankful for his optimism and leadership right now.

1. Someone lives in near a Texas detention facility and would like to help coordinate transportation for released detainees who want to return to MN.

2. Someone wants to organize physical letters and cards of support and encouragement to be delivered to Minnesota people.

Please consider helping Kari with their burst pipes. The cold is really doing a number on their house.
Sooo, I had an adventure last night. I thought I was in the clear on frozen pipes but no, and one burst. So, I'll have to repair that, too.
I have edited my Ko-Fi goal to reflect the fact that these temperatures are kicking my house's ass and this coming bill is also going to suck so bad. I know it's coming for most of us, but if you got extra, you'll have my thanks.

Dreamhaven, in fact. A classic SFF bookstore here in the Twin Cities
It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.
