I'm constantly responding to messages with "no worries!" but honestly, for some of these folks, I should really just be texting "WORRIES"

HUMANS: At last, we've created godlike artificial intelligence that will tell us how to live forever!

AI: You could start by vaccinating against deadly diseases

HUMANS: ew no

The Rabbit Prince logo (a rabbit wearing a crown) surrounded by the words "If you're not angry, you're not listening."

Did you know I have a new band?

A set of four cake pops that read HAPPY VALENTINES DAY; The first has H, VA, and D; The second has A LEN A; the third has PP TIN Y; the last has Y ES <3. A cartoon below shows a very sad hamster holding up the one that reads PP TINY

I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

Bounty hunters lurking in bathrooms. There's truly no end to the GOP's predation.

Aw, yay! Thanks, Jason. :)

Friend: "How's your knee?"

Me: "Oh, it's borked. Like, Swedish-Chef-level borked."

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

Excellent article!

Love that the party of "every teacher should be armed" and constant assault rifle photoshoots with the whole family is also the party of "a protestor carrying a gun is grounds for execution."

There are so many things to be furious about right now, but the silence of the second amendment militia bros as federal goons straight-up murder citizens in the streets over peaceful political dissent will never not grate.

“I was hit so hard with the fact that this man would not do this for me"...“We were willing to do for this man, this human, what they were not willing to do for Renee Good,” Zemien said.

A friend was apologizing for screaming about the state of the world, and another friend responded "but if we all scream together, it can be a battle cry."

WAIT WHAT I've been checking in on Scott Hawkins like every two years to see if we'd get another!

Heartbreaking cruelty visited upon children in our name

This is a photo of someone being tortured, not someone being restrained

I've got a new band! We're called Rabbit Prince, and we're female-fronted post-hardcore with a dash of musical theater. Our demo is now up on all your favorite streaming platforms, and I think it's some of the best music I've ever worked on, so I hope you'll check it out!

Jazz used to mean semen. Rock 'n' roll meant sex. The history of American music is people naming genres LET'S FUCK TO THIS and then 50 years later it's playing in the grocery store.

I mean, c'mon

A library copy of THE GHOST OF US on display among other YA books.

Something making me happy today: the amazing @erinmevans.bsky.social spotting THE GHOST OF US on display at a local high school. 😍

Thanks, man! You too!

And also: shit, I'm sorry to hear that mine was relevant for you. :\

Body cams do nothing if there's no consequences for evil. That's just, like, scrapbooking for fascists.

If you missed my reading on @storyhour.bsky.social with @coreyfarrenkopf.bsky.social last night, you can now watch the recording!

My story "Make of Your Chest a Place for Birds," is about love, grief, healing, and birds nesting in your thoracic cavity: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxe2...

When posting your outrage, don't forget that you can copy that text into an email and send it to your reps. Let them know that you are not, in fact, primarily motivated by grocery prices.

It only takes a minute, and might help push some fence-sitting politicians into actually fighting.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

Today's my birthday! And I'm launching a new thing, which is a bit scary and I need your help to spread the word.

So! Today THE THIRTEENTH GOD, my new military progression fantasy magitech Mad Max x Final Fantasy x Gurren Lagann serial starts over at Royal Road!

So much wrong with this but…they sold his phone?!? Like, for profit?? Now ICE can just confiscate and pawn your property???

I know some have been a little unnerved at the aggressive following and noisemaking tactics of the observers. What they don’t realize is that it’s necessitated by what ICE is doing. You have seconds and you need as many eyes on them as possible, and as many people trying to get key info as possible.

They don’t know who they’re taking because:
-they don’t talk to them
-they’re random pedestrians

It is literally indistinguishable from a kidnapping when you see it, except there are so many of them, and they are more heavily armed and armored than any kidnapper would ever be.
