I'm sure my followers know this, but I'll say it just in case it breaks containment.

When the topic is disability; listen to disabled people.

Trans rights? Listen to trans people.

Racism/ xenophobia? Listen to BIPOC.

Women's issue? Listen to women.

Marginalised people KNOW what's best for US.

Muttering β€˜technically this is a business expense’ every time I pony up forty quid minimum for an interesting book from an academic press.

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

I would have asked the manager to read it to me like it's a picture book in Playschool story time, but I'm a contrary bitch. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Anytime the 'creatives are the petite bourgeoisie' thing pops up in arguments for AI or theft I want to scream and start biting.

I will eat your fingers. Stop typing like someone who uses college degrees as rolling paper.

Hi, I lost a keychain and I'm wondering if anyone can help me replace it. It was an Alastor keyring where he's eating ribs. It's transparent acrylic and has his name in it in red letters. It came from Etsy, but I don't know who the vendor is.

A solid article but can we please, again, address the fact that ChatGPT uses em dashes because they ARE used a lot? Lotta hate on them lately because of AI but they show up there because of the materials it was trained on so just be aware that personal stylistic choices are just that - personal.

Dear all of publishing: i need you to put the translator's name on the cover as well because I do not trust, at this point, that it wasn't google.

This photo is in a book I own about American history. I won't forget this image ever and the horrors behind it, no matter how much they try to hide the past. They can claw that book, and others with similarly damning information, out of my cold, dead hands.
