Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:

Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org.

Please donate what you can.

I made a lopsided sphere and learned some basic stitches. I'm pleased but could probably use some hands-on teaching from someone who can see how I'm messing up. Still, progress is progress.

and as always, if you don't want to give money to the 'zon, our GFM funds our whistle printing/shipping but we also use any extra money to rush cash directly to activists who need it on a given day. This weekend, that's the twin cities. 💓

I have now seen two separate AI reconstruction pictures of Renee Good’s murderer and they are different, which tells you that they’re not good and you should stop sharing them.

This is heartbreaking, and also upsetting to see it amplified instantaneously when video shows her wife crying and talking about their kid at school. We have no idea what kind of family dynamics are at play and a same-sex partner is vulnerable to being muscled out of the story, so we should use care

I got one of those crochet kits from IG and so far I have a green hat for my thumb. Hopefully it will eventually turn into a pigeon.

Look, the Beatles were HUGE for me as a kid, and I still love them as much as, if not more than, the next #BeatlesGuy. But I’m BEGGING someone to put this kind of energy into the KINKS, for the love of god

I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.
men’s loneliness gets “more airtime”?

baby I have lived the past three decades of my life witnessing corporate media elevate men’s loneliness into a full-blown balls-to-the-wall CRISIS once every 4-5 years

“more airtime” is hilarious

Hi all!

I'm casting my paid mockumentary about YouTube drama culture ($500 CAD, about 3-4 minutes of dialogue, self-tape from home). Looking for a trans woman to play JENNA, an indie TTRPG creator whose Kickstarter blows up and then falls apart. Details + sides:

LLMs are not good at “knowing” stuff, but they’re very good at creating silly text that looks and feels authoritative, which is why they suck for stuff like this.

NPR fights Trump's executive order against public media

The case isn't getting much attention.

But it pits the press's right not to face government retaliation over coverage against the president's assertion of vast executive powers
