Baltimore transplant, perpetually curious and often armed with stickers.
I like radioactive glass, books, pigeons, street art, and found items. I dislike mosquitoes, getting stuck behind slow walkers, pears, sun in my eyes, and fascism.

Now reading this self-published book by a deaf author, her writing has some hints of ASL-thinking (instead of English) like
"... got my favorite McDonalds Big Mac with French fries"
Kissfist! I do that sometimes, like in my mind it's always "food shopping" instead of "grocery shopping"

Some are suggesting you deliberately write inaccurate or confusing alt text, because they say this confuses AI scrapers that are analyzing images.
The purpose of alt text is to help people who cannot see the image. Deliberately misrepresenting the image is a gross misuse of alt text. Don't do it.

My mom told her physical therapist she wears a mask because her husband and daughter are immunocompromised. The PT said she is too but isn't worried bc she knows if she dies she is going to heaven. Then her co-worker yelled, “Shut up Debbie you wear a seatbelt and take blood pressure meds” 👀

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

The Winged Monkeys weren’t evil, but mischievous. Long cursed into the service of whoever wore the Golden Cap, they only obeyed the commands given.
Glinda the Good Witch later gave them three final tasks, then gave the cap to their King, freeing them forever from the spell.

Unhoused people are not "People with zero source of income."
Unhoused people are "People whose source of income is not enough to acquire and maintain a house."
In 2025, you can have a job, and through unseen events (wildfire, medical debt, temporary loss of income, arrest) lose your housing.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.
