Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Funny how “protecting the children” always outweighs the First Amendment but never outweighs the Second Amendment.

(Hat-tip to @audryt.bsky.social)
Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

A meme from 2020 that's stuck with me was about how the Imperium of Man (a multiplanetary spacefaring empire) does 1000 human sacrifices a day, and that was meant to demonstrate its immense cruelty, but we were losing more people to covid daily in the US alone, effectively sacrificing them to Mammon

Actually, trans people ARE the reason your life sucks. You specifically. We all decided to work together and it wasn't even much of a discussion.

Goo morning, monsters.

It’s alright to feel emotionally heavy. Not every day can be ovipositive.

Leaves on your lawn? Good. Leaf them alone. 🍂
Leave the Leaves!
One of the most valuable ways to support pollinators and other invertebrates is to provide them with the shelter they need to survive the winter. Thankfully, all you need to do is do less yard work.

I wrote a chapter of When the Earth Was Green about prehistoric autumn partly to enthuse over how important leaf litter is to small lives through the cold months.

love (/s) how Medicaid will only cover a crown if that tooth needs a root canal but won’t cover just a crown if a tooth doesn’t need a root canal 🙃

I can't wait to see all of my mutuals that play Fortnite regularly to not touch the game for the entirety of the season in solidarity of all of their trans homies! It's so nice knowing so many people that aren't just allies when it's convenient for them! 🙂💖

Hint. Fucking. Hint.
Harry Potter x Fortnite coming in Chapter 7

(In other words, Fortnite is adding a transphobic authors work into Fortnite)

So apparently gay rams are often killed because they don't tend to make more rams.

So this gay farmer buys the gay rams to keep them alive and sells the wool!
am I even awake right now?

On November 24, 1971, a man using the name Dan Cooper boarded a flight from Portland, Oregon, to Seattle.

This marked the beginning of a legendary but unsolved heist, a cold case that’s among the most infamous criminal mysteries in American history. 🧵⬇️

6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak.

31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula.

Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.
