Ken Paxton, the Texas AG has created a bathroom snitch line to report suspected trans people in bathrooms.

Please don't spam this form that lacks a captcha code and definitely don't create a script to automate it. That would be very very wrong to do.

I can't believe this film is almost 10. I have so many memories attached to it. I'd gladly buy a physical copy.

Please watch it if you can!!!

i want to be clear about this: worker’s rights also includes the right to be free from racist or sexist or gendered abuse at your job.

What's one way you lose spare change per week? Can you turn that into a pledge for the survival of six families & a camp in Gaza?

About 200 folks have made this pledge and it means a little bit of reliable, weekly support. But it isn't enough. So join in: chuffed.org/project/hope...

If you speak French, Quebec has a separate immigration system.
So this is what I mean when I say immigration to Canada is not easy. I took the assessment for their point system. I have a PhD, I have been employed full time my entire life, and I do not qualify for the skilled worker thing. I am not eligible for ANY of its immigration programs

I’m broke and thus don’t have this book (and I realize this does not generally stop me from having books) but I requested it at my library! Which everyone should do for every book they want to read!
Someone just tagged this post from November 2024. Maybe I should do a signed paperback giveaway? I'll pick one at 5 pm CST tomorrow at random from the likes. You don't even have to follow or repost ... but it would be nice if you did!

idk why it's tickling me that a platform where some people act like they're surveillance agents (focusmate) gave me the most inaccurate overview of my year.

You aren’t entitled to a child’s warmth simply because you are an adult. And a child’s limited capacity for socializing is not a character flaw.

People often forget that Zora Neale Hurston was a trailblazing cultural anthropologist whose ethnographies are, to this day, still some of the finest examples of the genre
“Tell My Horse” is a great book by the way.

The Payback, a novel (2025)
I kinda hope that new Supergirl movie breaks this incredibly annoying spell that the only way to write a female main character is if they’re some bland girlboss, because there is a clear appetite for girl dirtbags and girlfailures

stuff like this is a huge part of AI frustration for me. what was wrong with Google maps? is having a computer say "turn left at the big tree" so valuable that you'd rather kill the planet to ask ChatGPT instead of following the little arrow on your phone? we already have tools to do these things!
So now humans are getting lost/trapped and other humans have to send out search parties to find them because AI doesn't have the capacity to account for sudden trail closures

For me personally? That sums up exactly how unreliable AI is

I do this and it's always a good time! highly recommended way of moving through the world :)

(I also ask caregivers if the child they're with chose their outfit and if they OK it I compliment the kid. nothing like a child lighting up because their choices have been praised!)
A while back, I decided that if I ever saw someone and thought "Gosh, I like their [intentional appearance/style/fashion choice]," I would always tell them. One of the best decisions I've ever made.

Instant serotonin for everyone!
