When I saw ads for this fight before it happened, my main reaction was "Why do these people have nothing but first names?!?"
im not a fan of boxing but this... this is a work of art.

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, stumbled out of his TARDIS and collapsed after forced regeneration, and was taken with a TARDIS to a UNIT facility whilst unconscious.

someone help I tried to see if I could expand on sfwa's nonsense rule #2 about "process" in a way that would give adequate guidance across prose, poetry, games, comics, film, tv, and plays without stressing writers or administrators into an early grave

I'm 7 pages in and it's not even good

Stories from the federal siege of Chicago
As federal agents came every day to take away fellow Chicagoans, residents fought back with whistles and organizing while their neighborhoods were tear-gassed.

A Santa Monica councilmember ran and won on a pro-housing platform, but is now being told by state regulators that he's not allowed to vote on housing issues because he works for a pro-housing advocacy organization. Plainly not the intent of conflict of interest law.

State regulators say Councilman Zwick is conflicted on housing votes
The California Fair Political Practices Commission has ruled that Santa Monica Mayor Pro Tem Jesse Zwick must recuse himself from housing production decisions

This is a hit job. The "conflict of interest" is that Jesse's day job aligns with the values that got him elected.
In Santa Monica, the FPPC has disqualified pro-housing Councilmember Jesse Zwick from all future housing votes. They said that because he works for a housing non-profit, he’s “conflicted” and must recuse.

Pretty absurd. The NIMBY deep state strikes again.

Utilities should be not for profit.
Education should be not for profit.
Healthcare should be not for profit.
Prisons should be not for profit.

Essentials for people to be self-sufficient should not stab them in the wallet every time they reach for it.

Our current system is a vampire.

Marie has high standards. These were *really really* good.
Tried to get fancy this morning with mini quiches but they came out a little messy. They're tasty though. Yay.

My parents both worked min wage jobs at a burger joint in the 70s and could *buy a house.*

Every time I'm reminded of just how bad actual min wage has gotten - it hasn't been tied to cost of living since late 60s - I think about what a useless concept it is anymore.

I would encourage people to petition for the USA to ratify the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

AND for Canada to promote it more.

In it, the convention highlights very strongly that children have multiple individual rights and parents have responsibilities.
Yep. As soon as we reach a critical mass of adults believing with their whole selves that children are people, we're going to have to change everything, and lots of people would rather have property than harmony.
I know this is something I circle back to a lot, but it honestly feels, to me, like half the attacks on our trans siblings roots back to "children aren't people." The doctor said "boy," so I get to be the parent of a boy child! Not a girl child! How dare my child want things I don't want?!

“it’s reasonable to ask questions about trans girls in sports” was always intended to mainstream transphobia.

It’s absurd that people fell for it. Democrats are constantly letting oppressors set the terms of debate instead of just saying “no, fuck you.”

In 1988 Umberto Eco wrote Foucault's Pendulum.

The plot is: a bunch of guys working at a self-publisher house, for fun, take their huge crackpot and crank slush pile and jam it all together using a simple markov chain program written in BASIC.

They create a Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory.

You should check out @peculiarityshop.bsky.social for some of the loveliest things around. About a dozen people enjoying making awesome wearable art.

(And they do seasonal art to die for--the summer boxes, the Samhain boxes!)

The gifts to friends. . . .
A pair of Rachel's beadwoven earrings and a matching bracelet, in the most beautiful stormy blues . . . and ANTLER EARRINGS [I've tried to snag them in the past, and I'm always too slow].

And the most beautiful card, with the sweetest message that had me flooding the joint.

I'm told that HHS has just terminated all funding agreements with the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Here's a letter HHS sent canceling one of the grants, relating to work on birth defects. Canceled because the project "emphasizes equity, diversity, and inclusion as key foundational components"
