As some one slightly starving to death from this condition, what I’d like you to be Aware of is that when you go into public spaces without a mask, you risk getting or giving Long Covid, for which there is no treatment and no cure, and that’s a dumb risk and you should stop.

March is Long Covid Awareness month, because March is a lot like long covid in that every time you think it looks nice enough to go be active outside, you quickly regret it.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

People are always like what’s something you miss from the past and one of mine is antitrust laws

This feels like a foot-in-the-door bill--if they can pass it, then the next bans will only further expand its scope. Let's stop this campaign of trans and queer erasure here and now. Please contact your representatives to demand that they oppose this bill. www.house.gov/representati...

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

Fuck the GOP, of course, but also fuck quisling Democrats who don’t stand up to all anti trans bullshit.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is one of the delayed complications of measles and affects up to 1 in 600 unvaccinated children who’ve had measles. It occurs without warning an average of 7 years after infection and can occur decades later. There is no cure and it is almost always fatal.

Every day my wish for LA to get a PWHL team increases.

Satellite proposals threaten the night sky In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the agency responsible for authorizing satellite launches and operations…

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan.

As usual we could've kept talking for twice as long, but we restrained ourselves. Big thanks to everyone who's been listening btw!

I am once again asking When Will It Happen because this shit is fucking untenable on so many levels.

Every "population crisis" article in western media is just "WHERE ARE THE WHITE BABIES" in disguise and we absolutely do not have to give any credence to any of them

Suffice it to say I am changing it to something else.

a close up of a man 's face with the hashtag schitts creek on the bottom Alt: Schitt’s Creek GIF of David Rose looking bewildered and appalled.

I’ve been riding my in-laws peloton since last month, and have had my rider hashtag set as “ReleaseTheKraken” because I thought it would be motivating to have something related to my favorite athletes.

Anyway, I just found out that this hashtag is used by Jan 6 conspiracy theorist dickheads 🫠

I would rather die.

Important vote on Tuesday 2/17 for stayinla.org. Please call city council members by tomorrow to express support. “Please vote yes on all 9 ‘Keep Hollywood Home’ motions.” #losangeles #stayinla

hollywood is COOKED

something like this used to cost $100,000,000 to make and i just did it for free with one prompt 😎

I particularly love how these jabronis keep being like "AI, create a new version of [scene that already exists in a popular franchise made by people]" and then claiming that they're the future of innovation.

this is exactly why I am absolutely not willing to overlook anyone who was once “advocating for ending USAID” as merely committing a little oopsie-daisy-booboo, by the way

Shit’s so fucked in LA right now I just saw someone in a 2025 Porsche Carrera delivering doordash.

Melrose and La Brea is just a river right now.

A dark, high-contrast photograph of a window with a bright beam of blue-tinted light shining through the curtain. The Killer Shorts Quarterfinalist laurel has been overlaid in the lower left corner. Above it, text reads: BEAMING | A one-page horror short by Cass Cooper.

On December 3rd, I challenged myself to write a fully contained one minute script. On December 5th, I submitted BEAMING to Killer Shorts. Beyond thrilled to see that it has now been named as a quarterfinalist in the one page category! Many thanks to @killershorts.bsky.social for the consideration 🛸🩸

Reposting this question because I’m broke as hell and need a job but I don’t want to throw any of my very limited money away if a subscription is worthless 🙇🏻

Honestly just impressed that I was able to summon, spell, and correctly use “faux pas” while my brain was in such a state that I was coming up with fun new ways to marginalize the lactose intolerant.
