That makes a lot of sense. I think it's the stages of grief combined with weird relief. Such odd emotions to feel simultaneously. I'm weirdly dreading Sunday, but I'm going to try to make it a very positive day 💖

Can anyone help me decide what to read first for my fantasy fiction books this month? 🙈 #booksky

But what if I say we're parboiled

I'm sorry you've had to go through that. Mine is finally saying no to lifelong abuse. Unfortunately, the abuse doesn't make me not miss the good I lost too. Such weird conflicting emotions to hold grief and relief at the same time.

First birthweek since going no contact with the immediate fam. It's for the best, but could anyone tell me how to make this hurt not so damn much?

Shocking that we occupied Venezuela before this to secure an alternative oil supply. Shocking.

For anyone who needs this today. 🌹🔥

This isn't hyperbole. At least 85 little girls are dead from one of our strikes at their school.

Now's a really good time to remember that Saddam was also a brutal dictator, but toppling his regime the way we did - especially with de-Ba'athification afterward - paved the way for ISIS. And don't let anyone tell you "other Muslim countries are happy!" until you understand Sunni/Shia politics.

Our dear friends in Iran, I promise not all Americans - or even a majority of Americans - want this. And we will keep advocating for peace in your communities and ours as strongly as we can. 🖤

Ahhh I had no idea!! I couldn't agree more ♥️

It will always confuse me how a community that is defined by its suspicion of existing power structures and embrace of non-mainstream ideas so easily falls prey to fascist bullshit

It's just an offsite events position during the con season, but I'm hopeful it could lead to more regular work eventually. Plus I'd get to go to Comic Con and all of the book festivals for free! So fun 💖

A shelf of fantasy books and a fortune that says "be open to new opportunities in business"

Looks like my lil' poster presentation did the trick, because my fave bookstore emailed me to talk about an unlisted position they might want to hire me for! Got this fortune the next day, so the Gods are clearly doing their thing. 😉

What a strong little one you must have been to assert yourself so young! It makes me happy to be able to align with what your internal self knows. Thanks for sharing 🖤

It's always fascinating how we evolve on these journeys. I feel similarly when people refer to me as bi, now that I identify as pan. For future reference, do you prefer they/them or he/him or something else?

This is one of the things that angers me the most. Deities like Hekate could potentially go back to ancient Crete, but even some textbooks still show the "snake goddess" figurine without mentioning it was a reconstruction with no evidence for accuracy.

I love this so much.

Dan is the one to support anyway, for so many reasons 💖

💯. From someone who used to work with refugees, hear me: take screenshots and keep evidence. Hope we never need it later but you never know.

Yeah I'd like to see what the fuck @gavinnewsom.bsky.social has to say for himself after normalizing this shit. Actually, no. I wouldn't l.

I think the list will be removed soon. Just unnerving to be out on a list the same day trans ppl in Kansas got those letters

This is honestly destroying me. Other countries need to start accepting trans applicants for asylum.

Now's the time to put you money where your mouth is if you claim to be a queer ally. Help trans folks in Kansas get out while they can. 👇🏻

Likewise 🖤

Bold strategy gathering all of the witches in one place in an effort to smear us. 🤣

Hopefully it's just an incel loser, but given the Kansas license news tonight, I highly recommend everyone on the #witchsky #occultsky fake MAGA list takes a screenshot of their name on it. If things ever devolve enough to require fleeing, evidence of persecution is required for refugee status.

Fucking hell. I sincerely hope this is just a basement dwelling loser and not something more sinister
