Two of my streaming shares lapsed over the weekend. So I'm down to Prime (until my annual cancels in December). Turns out, I really only need Dropout anyway. And DVDs.

P.S. Any recs for an affordable external blu-ray drive for Mac? I have a DVD player, but no more TV or monitor...

My uncle called to tell me he has all of my Mormor’s knitting things and would I like them? I may not have gotten the chance to learn the craft from her, but I’ll get to carry her with me as I learn from here on out. My heart is full.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

Oh by the way I recorded these 4 acoustic versions and you can only get them if you buy all 4 special edition CDs. 🙄

This. This is why I am so unexcited by Showgirl.

(Eldest Daughter, Ruin the Friendship, and Cancelled were good at least)

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

Started the day listening to this new Samí release instead: open.spotify.com/album/03CxcW...

The special interest grief is real

I guess somebody has an album out today? I am so confused by how little excitement I can muster when she’s been such a source of happiness for me for so long. I have stayed up til midnight since 2014 - it’s almost 9am and I haven’t bothered to start my listen yet.

Apparently, my version of rest is hiking 28 miles over 4 peaks with 45lbs on my back. Because that’s where the stars and critters are.

Anyway if you want to read up on what autism ACTUALLY is, what it's like to have it, and more cool things like that, we have a recommendation list for you:

If you're a cis person who wants to be kind to your trans and nonbinary friends right now, please do not forward us links to stories about trans people being abused, having their rights taken away, or living in fear. We already know. A friendly "hey I hope you're OK" is much more helpful. 💖

I have taken
the Tylenol
that was in
the medicine cabinet

and which
they think probably
is the reason
you like trains

forgive me
but that’s bullshit
you got autism

It appears the foreseeable future will be even more difficult for autistic people & their loved ones because of the heinous disinformation coming from the US government &their supporters. We should not need to reiterate the humanity of Autistic people, but here we are, watching as progress is erased

Autistic and neurodivergent people deserve far better than a government looking to prevent their existence, let alone one that will invent fictitious ways to do so that puts everyone in danger

Today, the President held a press conference with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other members of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) leadership. During the press conference, speakers shared harmful, false information about autism, acetaminophen, and vaccines. An HHS that does not provide accurate information to the President and make safe, science-informed decisions puts us all at grave risk. ASAN will release a full statement about this in the coming days. Today and always: autistic people belong.

In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power.

Today is the deadline to tell the New York Power Authority that we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.

It took me 2h30 to dig out even a little bit. Starting back to work on Friday instead of Monday is one of the best calls I’ve made to do this quietly instead of people needing me immediately.

9 days out of office. 750 emails. HALP

(But also, after an initial deletion of anything that didn’t need my response, I was down to 150. People send so many unnecessary things my gawd)

When people ask where my love of magpies started… youtu.be/dgcbqgU1Dic?...

oh god what an unutterably depressing list of people I used to like

New ink for me! #rosemaling #fineline

Much mountain. Good lake. Big storm ahead.

Here for it. Also advocating for sword tattoos

Not me reading Triple Sec again for research purposes…

Finding a new roommate is exhausting and confusing and scammy. Really worried I'm going to have to move after all this. But at least it's scammy brokers that I'm used to and not total strangers I'd have to live with?

Cis people:

This is where you fucking step up. Do everything you can to support trans people in the coming days. You're going to hear horrible, hurtful rhetoric about us. Shut it down. Don't let it stand.

And buy the trans people in your life a drink.
