Many helped with donations, but ultimately I was only able to reach $3517 of the $4500 goal. But any new donations can still greatly help as I try to rebuild my life from the ground up, or share if you can. I'll be alone this holiday season, I would like to at least be safe.

This year broke me. The state of the country would have been enough. And then my partner became physically abusive for months. And then a few weeks ago left suddenly, taking our babies. Leaving me with unpaid back rent, and now, no options, no home, nothing. I'm so alone, and so afraid.

I've been hanging on to hope so long and there really isn't anything to hang onto anymore and now I don't know what to do. I've never been more alone, and I'm terrified.

Folks, today (20 Nov) is Transgender Day of Remembrance and I hope everyone can take some quiet moments to reflect and acknowledge on the violence and harm that has taken many from our wonderful Trans+ communities historically.

And a reminder that it costs nothing to be kind to everyone.

Hey, SABR hasn't put both its feet into bluesky yet (I know, a lot of its people have) but this is a good time to remind you that the SABR Analytics Conference Research Awards are open for nominations.

When you have a few minutes, please nominate some of your favorite baseball research from 2025.

No worries, the biggest help has been the emotional support from the community, statements like the ones you just expressed. Truly. These types of struggles are made harder by how lonely they can be. This is hard, but without community, I know it would be much harder. I only feel blessed.

It's Trans Awareness Week! So increase your weekly awareness of us by reading our stories.

(Our books also make great holiday gifts for your conservative relatives you'd like to never speak to you again!)

Transgender awareness week? Babe, i'm already living in the transgender awareness century, and this shit's getting kinda scary 😖

No worries at all! Thank you for letting me know, for asking to double check in the first place, and for thinking of us.

Sorry, it would be preferable now to use this one, my personal Venmo link. Thank you for asking!

Many of you know about the struggles my family and I have had lately, and how desperately we need to raise money to catch up to keep from homelessness. In that effort I am selling a somewhat rare signed promotional item of mine, one an article I wrote inspired, Death Cabby For Cutie.

SOS CRISIS: EMERGENCY SURVIVAL FUND. Daily panic attacks are destroying me. I'm choosing between medication and food - life or death choices. Every day. Applying for roles from CX, admin, QA and customer service but getting destroyed by AI. Sharing means the world and everything counts. Cheers!

I am unreasonably addicted to Bon Appetit, Your Majesty. What a perfect cross-section of my interests.

Hi writers! I’m looking to assign a couple of features for Slate before the end of the year. If you have anything in mind that you think would be a fit please send me a pitch! Jenée.Desmond- harris@slate.com or dm me.

RTs are appreciated so this can reach more people. Thanks!

Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?

Federal workers aren’t furloughed.

Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.

Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.

It puts the politicians jobs on the line.

They get the budget passed.

I didn't take it that way at all, I completely understand your position and don't mind at all! Thank you so much for taking the time to consider, and all appreciation and thanks for anything you can donate, we are very grateful.

I don't mind. Since getting out of homelessness about a year ago our family was operating on a razer thin margin. In that time my partner has had to miss work due to injury and illness, and there have been other rising costs involving childcare, that have put us behind. Happy to answer more any Q's

Thank you so so much 🥺🥹

This is no slight against fact-checking, which we love. How else am I to know that “Josh Naylor is my Roman Empire” is a sloppily inaccurate comparison when I should actually be comparing him to Alexander at Granicus

Tell HN: X is opening any tweet link in a webview whether you press it or not 247 points by stillatit 10 hours ago | hide | past | favorite | 200 comments Just saw the CEO of Substack celebrating traffic from X/Twitter shooting up thinking they stopped suppressing tweets with links[0]. Actually, this traffic is because now any time you open a tweet with a link, the in-app webview loads in the background, and displays when you press the link. I run an ecom store that gets a lot of its customers from Twitter. I was also shocked to see my traffic double or triple overnight and thought the algorithm had blessed me and my business. Soon realized what was actually happening. Thought other traffic-monitors might appreciate this explanation. Meanwhile Nikita Bier is pretending they never suppressed tweets with links to begin with, offering the alternative explanation: "a common complaint is that posts with links tend to get lower reach. This is because the web browser covers the post and people forget to Like or Reply. So X doesn't get a clear signal whether the content is any good"[1]. A bit of a rewriting of history since Elon and his mom both tweeted about how it wasn't fair to use his platform to promote other links/platforms, even banning people who shared profiles of other social networks (including Paul Graham for a period). They suppressed all links shortly after. [0] https://x.com/cjgbest/status/1985464687350485092 [1] https://x.com/nikitabier/status/1979994223224209709

Looks like X is juicing web visit numbers by opening a browser WebView in the background whether the user visits the link or not.

They've re-invented pop-under fraud (allegedly).
