Like Aura but with a rawrr because I never grew out of my emo phase 🖤 Living on stolen land, sovereignty was never ceded.
I'm interested in music, kitchen witchcraft, books (especially fantasy but fairly omnivorous), and human rights.

Going to start trying to collect some of the videos I've seen of this evening's police brutality in one place

First up, cops mobbing and punching an old man who was just standing there with his hands up, showing very clearly he wasn't a threat. bsky.app/profile/davi...
Shared with us from Sydney happening now. He had his hands up.

"Indeed, TGEU’s Trans Murder Monitoring 2025 reported that 281 trans and gender-diverse people were murdered in the past year alone, with a notable increase in killings of activists and movement leaders."

NSW Labor bought so much goodwill from me with last year's birth certificate reforms that it shouldn't even have been possible for them to have squandered it, and yet here we are. Honestly staggering how badly Minns has lost the plot.

We should have done this here in the 2010s
Considering how many prime ministers have resigned in the last few years I feel like we should invent like a traditional dinner that we all gobble whilst we scroll Bluesky and wave goodbye to a dreadful politician and welcome in a worse one

my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

Do. Not. Let. Them. Minimise. This.

Armed state violence against peaceful prayer is peak Islamophobia and vicious racism and. We have very few codified constitutional freedoms and this is almost certainly unconstitutional. They are officers of the law.
Extraordinary footage. Police pulling off people engaged in peaceful prayer.

I started working on a vector self-portrait in Illustrator over a year ago to try to improve my art skills, but put it down for like a year because life got hectic and I wasn't loving how it was turning out. Finally picked it back up yesterday and I'm so pleased with the progress I've been making!

I feel so sick reading this. She dedicated her life to helping her immigrant trans siblings, finally got the medical care she sought her whole life, and then a year later ICE tricked her, kidnapped her and used her postoperative status as a weapon to destroy her health.

if i was a godlike being capable of forcing a metaphysical system upon the entire world, my system would be “if an adult unironically uses the terms heterophobia/misandry/etc they are immediately turned back into a 3yo and must repeat growing up”

Listened through to the new @softcult.band album (when a flower doesn't grow), really positive first impression! I've really liked a lot of their stuff (especially when they're audibly channeling their righteous rage!)

Fuck Amazon for life
While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

We didn't make everything about us. They did. Compare the Advocate, the oldest and largest LGBTQ newspaper in the US, to Fox and the NYT. Both have been publishing more about us than our own newspapers for 3+ years.

Me, increasingly wild-eyed, to my students:
How? How do you double-check the accuracy, if you're not already an expert? Ask a different GenAI? Or do you, you know... Have to go and do the research you would have done anyway, pre-AI? Because I'm buggered if I can think of how you do that in a way where the GenAI saved you time.

a nightmare
Kansas just passed a monstrous bill enabling criminal penalties and vigilante lawsuits for trans people using the bathroom according to their gender identity and requires them to surrender their current drivers licenses and birth certificates if it does not match their sex assigned at birth.
