My brain while taking a break from writing an article: wouldn't it be great if there were bracelets, that resembled donuts shaped & then you could get a bracelet spray that would smell like donuts, so every once in a while, someone would say do you smell donuts and you get to say that's me πŸ₯°

Today would have been George Floyd’s 52nd birthday. He should be here celebrating with his loved ones.

Hello everyone.

Antifa is not a real organization.

Proud Boys are.

Oath Keepers are.

Patriot Front is.

KKK is.

Heritage Foundation is.

Antifa is not.

Thanks for your attention.

Despite the ongoing pandemic, some companies are banning employees from masking - The Sick Times While some anti-mask policies have failed β€” a win for workers β€” there is a larger effort to ban masks in the U.S. on state and local levels. And more businesses may attempt to ban masks in the workpla...

NEW 😷: Masks are a vital tool in protecting people from COVID-19 & other airborne diseases. But s ome employers are banning them, even though Americans have the right to accessibility tools under the ADA.

The Surreal Practicality of Protesting As an Inflatable Frog Say goodbye to the Guy Fawkes masks and hello to inflatable frogs and dinosaurs.

On October 2β€”just a few minutes shy of 11 PM in Portland, Oregonβ€”a federal agent shot peppery spray into the vent hole of Seth Todd’s inflatable frog costume. Todd was protesting ICE outside of Portland’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office.

BREAKING: 45,000 health care workers just launched the biggest strike of the year.

Workers at Kaiser Permanente on the West Coast and in Hawaii have walked out to secure a contract.

These essential workers are fighting for patient care, good wages, and decent staffing.

I still want to go to the disability pride parade to take photos, but honestly I'm not sure how realistic that is considering my wheelchair is still not fixed & I'm not sure if it's safe to go beyond my neighborhood?

But if I do, my camera is ready lol (2)

Woot woot! I tested out my camera today and while the battery needs to be charged, I'm happy to report that it not only still works but it's not too heavy for my wrists πŸ’œ

And that was without the small box I use for the tripod, So with it it'll be even lighter

A photo of my lap. I'm wearing rainbow striped leggings and in my hand is my absentee ballot in the envelope where my thumb is covering the return label. You can see The floor in my apartment which is this larger vertical rectangle tile that's kind of blonde in color.

Filled out the absentee ballot and glad I got it done. But God damn, I wish voting didn't come with so much baggage.

The world is a dumpster fire but another world is possible. NYC needs someone like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social . Ffs, can this just be a thing?

Well that's weird. Now I'm wondering if there is a way I can change that setting & I just don't know about it?

Or if the US version is just a dick about cursing?

Right-wingers literally straight-up admitting "it's harder to discredit the left because the left is almost always telling the truth"

The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality rightwing content.
That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well.
In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly arent usually on our side.

Gotta message a friend who's a full time screen-reader user to tell them I've got bastardtittyfucking covid. They have an iPhone & use Siri.

& I'm legit sitting here thinking "how good is Siri at pronouncing profanity, how colourful can I make my swears?"

…Why is this a thing I still care about?!?
