I'm getting a lot of followers who may not know me, and I tend to only retweet if there's a concrete political action these days, so...
If you think trans rights are up for debate, or if you voted for Trump, or if you think the US arming Israel is just peachy, I don't want you around.

Toddler is going through an interesting speech phase that is a tad annoying.
Me: oh look a bird.
Him: it's blue! Can you tell me what's NOT a bird?
Me: the grass & trees I guess.
Him: what else?
Me: the sidewalk & the houses? Idk kid, I can't name everything in the universe that's not a bird. 😭

Working my way through a bunch of Michael LaFosse origami butterflies, and YouTube is such a lifesaver. Can't believe I had to just keep trying a million different things when I got stuck on a diagram as a kid.

Thanksgiving so far has been my mom, my sisters, and me chilling while my dad runs around cooking with occasionally Mr. Sparrow's help, and that's feminism.

Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.

It’s not actually that far from other things Tate has said so it didn’t feel notable enough to debunk yesterday. But now that we’re moving to day two of this circulating, this tweet is fake.

I have a small "niche theme park" hyperfixation, but also don't really go to theme parks, & it's so hard to unload that energy on anyone in my life. People who don't care find it boring. People who do care actually go to theme parks so it's weird for novice me to pull out facts/detailed questions.
Went to Gilroy Gardens yesterday, had a great time, but also I was so busy running after the toddler that I forgot they have a little veggie animatronic show. I'm going to assume it wasn't running so I don't have to be devastated.

Unlike most apps these days, Scrivener does not use AI in any way. However, if you’re on a Mac, you may see an AI prompt.

This was a battle of optics which Mamdani won resoundingly. If you think this was some kind of victory for "normalising fascism" or whatever, it's worth noting that MAGA influencers are crashing out about this.
*They* don't think it's a Trump victory. Don't pretend it is on their behalf.

if you guys are ditching mamdani after he managed to throw the entire fucking republican party into complete total chaos and disarray while they rip each other apart, got trump to admit he's a fascist on-screen, and might've got him to leave ny alone for now with one meeting....... yall, come on

Mr Sparrow just reported that at lecture this morning they got continuous glucose monitors (voluntarily) so they can better understand the patient experience. Which is all well and good, but now he's going to get his glucose monitored over the "eat unhealthy food" holiday. 💀
