Today marks Trans Day of Remembrance. This day is an opportunity to remember and mourn our trans siblings who have been lost to hate and violence.

As we honor their legacy and remember the past, we can seize their courage and use it to create a brighter and safer future for all of us.

It's so charming.

A still from the program "Ghosts" with Lady Fanny and the Captain. The subtitles read: I knew she'd get her man. Kelsey Priest.

Been watching the original British "Ghosts", and the subtitles are an entertainment of their own. What the Captain actually said here was, "Quelle surprise."

Congratulations, @rabihalameddine.bsky.social!

Cleveland! Friday night has 70 tickets left! Saturday's at 120! We need that bonus! Go to TMBG dot calm for direct links to real tickets.

Jerry the piglet is growing fast and has been restless. His friend and roommate Suzy isn’t large enough to be in the big pig barn yet, so they don’t have access to all the space, woods, and complex pig society yet.

To try to keep Jerry occupied, we are trying many things, like treats in a jug!

I'm reading Mary Roach's _Bonk_ (which is , of course, fantastic). I just got to the part where a man had mistaken his wife's urethra for her vulva for, apparently, years, and I'm going to have to go stare into the middle distance for a while.

If I sent holiday cards, I'd absolutely choose these. I think a little holly embellishment outside of the circle would be lovely, as well.

Or even just provide an adapter that lets you use the charging jack for wired headphones. I have one. They're great!

Read and "let that sink in".

Sitting here in the family Strong Bad hoodie, my flabbers are gasted.

Bluesky has finally, quietly posted a position for a one-year remote contract Policy Lead, Trust & Safety position.

We need someone competent in this role if this place is going to survive.

Platforming people who want to actively harm members of your community does nothing for democracy and freedom of speech does not equal freedom from consequences for your bigoted rhetoric. @thecityclub.bsky.social

If you're not sure you want to watch "Ricky Jay and His 42 Assistants": you do. Ricky Jay was the fucking coolest.

It's good to see Alan Smithee is still getting work.

Post a bird to support @sbworkersunited.org and warn your followers not to buy Starbucks for the duration of the ULP strike. 🪶

Very cool.

In a decade that has been more surreal than we should be expected to endure, this may be the most surreal.

@dilfosaur.bsky.social Saw these in the store, and my daughter said, "Sonic and Tales have seen some things," and I knew I had to send them.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us.

I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.

May we live up to her example.

(so you don't have to go to Instagram)

Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Season 13 would also be great. Moar Emily.

YYYYYYYYYUSSSSSSSSSS

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Ha, I was just coming to tell you about this, too!
