Not-so-friendly reminder that only about one-third of the total US eligible voter population voted for the thing squatting in the Oval Office right now. Don't tar us all with the same brush, and frankly, if you're not American, don't talk about what you dont understand.

I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

Finished Act 2 of #ClairObscur yesterday and I -still- feel like I've been hit by a truck. There's been some choices I haven't loved in this game, but the whole end of the last fight to the end of the act ... oh, I was weeping for fictional characters. My god.

I can answer this: it's called supremacy clause immunity. You usually can't charge Feds for acts committed while acting on federal business. There's some exceptions, but not for this kind of thing.
I'm not happy about it, don't get me wrong, but that's the law right now. #attorney

Instead of talking about my hellscape country, I'm going to salute @goingmedieval.bsky.social - I subscribe to #HistoryHit and I love their work, but somehow it's only Dr. Eleanor Janega's series that seem to be subtitled. IDK; if you have anything to do with that, Dr. Janega - thanks! XD

Was listening to a documentary and had my mind blown: does anyone seriously doubt that Baldwin IV had leprosy/Hansen's disease? Yes, medieval writers used leprosy as a catch-all diagnosis, but the signs are all there. Wild claim, saying it was something else. #history

So a CBS Evening News reporter actually did a pretty solid breakdown of the ICE murder video, talking to a former agent who details all the ways Ross messed up. And yet: It didn’t air on the actual show tonight. CBS did post it to YouTube—and it has nearly 800k views already youtu.be/6ywLEESFDu0?...

I'm a bit confused as to why this is the breaking point for so many when ICE has murdered people before - including in my hometown. But the agony of this poor woman makes me just as angry as I was in hearing about the others.
Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears:

Dear #USPS: either you need to stop marking my shit as delivered when it isn't, or I've got a mail thief.
The last few days have felt like a spiraling nightmare, and when I'm promised cute stickers in my mailbox, I'd like them to be there, goddamn it.

Playing #Dispatch and while I'm enjoying it, I wish there were more romance options besides Deliberate Fuckup Girl and "Holy Shit, I've Never Seen Anyone More Neurotypical" Woman.

If CSAM is OK, then anything is OK. Literally anything. And that is the point. That is the goal: a world in which nothing at all is illegal, taboo, forbidden, or beyond the pale. It's the world they dream of living in and we are very nearly there.

Ah, I've just been reminded why trying to talk to (most) neurotypicals is fucking exhausting: they willfully hear things that simply aren't there.
My neurotypical followers, PLEASE stop fucking doing this. Listen to what we're actually saying instead of what you want to hear.

I choose not to talk about the hellscape that is world politics.
I'm reading a book about Philippa of Hainault, and I have to say, I know it's standard UK English, but I HAAATE the term "fell pregnant." A woman isn't a hunted animal. She GETS pregnant, hopefully of her own volition. #history

there are endless headlines about "grok apologizes" or "grok says it will be fixed" after it generated CSAM using pictures of minors and zero headlines about "grok being shut down" or "musk and xAI in big legal trouble" and I think something fundamental has broken here

Say it again. SPEECH IS NOT SENTIENT.
AI isn't sentient just because it can speak, and nonverbal disabled people are both sentient and sapient even if they can't speak.

Grok can't apologize. Grok can, when prompted, generate a word sequence that is statistically similar to the colloquial phrases we think of as "apologies," but Grok cannot actually apologize because Grok isn't sentient. But we all have a lot of trouble with this because we assume sentience IS speech

Woke up with burning pain in my left index finger knuckles, to the point I can barely touch it, but it's not swollen and I can move the finger. WTF, body.

It's been a good, if insane, Christmas. But having a good time with my family, and feeling loved, appreciated, and SEEN, always leaves me feeling so convoluted.

The good: I got a book I'd been wanting to read as a Christmas/late Chanukah present. It's about the deposition of the Shah in Iran. Me, a history nerd: Cool!
The bad: Turns out it's a heavily slanted work clearly written for the eyes of the Queen-Empress, who is still with us. Sigh. #history

Who has two thumbs, is on a train, and is trying not to have a meltdown because I didn't get one of the single seats and now I'll have to sit next to someone else, which is profoundly upsetting because I'm fat and wind up touching their leg with mine the entire time?

I could have written this. The metaphor I use is that I'm Japanese, born into that culture and speaking fluent Japanese, when I'm unceremoniously tossed into France, denied French lessons, and subject to every foreigners' prejudice about my culture, right or wrong.
The idea that autistic people lack empathy is still depressingly prevalent, partly because people conflate 'caring about other humans' wellbeing & wanting them to be happy' with 'reliably able to infer a stranger's motivation & emotional state based off observing a few external nonverbal clues'.
