Well be prepared - as the original thread confirms - what you’ll get is pillows with *pictures* of that embroidery printed on plain fabric. Still great images, just not the full glory of those AI-generated pillows.

Sarah Kendzior • 4m I've been suspended from BlueSky. I don't know why. I wasn't online much today, and the last things I posted were excerpts from my substack newsletter articles. The suspension followed without explanation. It seems there's a crackdown. If you enjoy my work and want to make sure you can access it, subscribe! It's free - I would never paywall in times of peril — and voluntary paying subscribers keep it going. It would be great to have your support at this time. Thanks!

In a rare case of Substack notes usefulness, I just learned that Sarah Kendzior (author of They Knew and a brilliant writer) got bounced from Bluesky. What the hell? new @sarahkendzior.bsky.social

What the everlasting fuck

We're officially live. It's incredibly important to have a real record of how our public servants are behaving and this database will be a powerful tool for researchers, reporters, and ordinary Americans.

I'm crying for a few reasons tonight, but this is a good one. Greg is doing good things here. If I'm reading his matching right, a donation of $4.50 turns into $50. ($41 in per donor matches plus a 1:1 matching). If you've got a fiver in your Venmo that you can share, it can go far.

if you didn't follow the VA governor race you didn't know that Earle-Sears ran like a billion anti-trans campaign ads and Spanberger didn't flinch or pull a Newsom.

going all-in against trans people is a losing move, especially when the federal government has made harming and killing us a priority.

Mamdani has won more votes than the entire population of any of the 5 smallest states.

Republican bloodbath.

Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

Vincent is going to be someone's best friend some day.

He's a timid boy, but once he starts getting pet, he just wants more and more.

Also, he loves other cats! If your house is in need of a 2nd buddy, Vinny would fit right in.

It's a choice.

Does the American electoral system favor Democrats or Republicans?

FOOD BANK DIRECTOR: “For every meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. There’s no way we can meet that gap. We were not built to do this.”

@zohrankmamdani is a deeply thoughtful human being and we think he would make the best NYC mayor imaginable. We feel this as New Yorkers, as Jews and as human beings who are desperate for kindness, compassion and empathy to be represented in our politics.
