Beneath Ceaseless Skies - The Crow’s Second Tale by Marissa Lingen So Kiris knew, even at the age of five: no one should only know one story. Not even a crow, like in the song. And if she was the only one who had spotted the problem, she felt down to her five-year-ol...

New story this morning! The Crow's Second Tale in @bcsmagazine.bsky.social ! www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/stories/the-... This is one of my stories that is 100% not autobiographical except the part that is, which is that I tell stories to crows too, just in case.

Actively logical decision for once, but also I have been collecting pennies since NPR ran a story about the ongoing discontinuation discussion in the early 90s.

"You can't un-invent AI!" We can't un-invent asbestos either. That doesn't mean we have to use it.

There was a spiritualism boom after the 1918 Influenza Epidemic.

AI grift is just that for the COVID-19 era, fucking fight me.

Where should I look for more about the snow sloths in the ice age trailer?

A good idea that seems especially relevant today—

I got this useful bon mot from a middle school teacher recently.

In response to, “I DONT UNDERSTAND,” he calmly said, “okay what steps have you taken to understand?”

And that’s when I realized that a lot of folks have no steps.

And there are at least two species so far!

Also good for dealing with pine sap!

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

AHAHAHAHA *incoherent sobbing*

The different between the right and centrists is that the right gleefully kills millions of people and centrists present mass murder as a technical solution, like they added up all the numbers and carried a zero and oops, sorry, millions have to die.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

If 40 million people go hungry, it would be because the Trump administration ignored a court order, not because Democrats fought for Article I powers.

Pressure him.

The Media Is Complicit in the Climate Confusion The vast majority of people want their governments to take climate action—but most wrongly think they’re in the minority. The media is partly to blame.

Over 80% of the world’s people want their governments to “do more” to address climate change, and nearly two-thirds are on board with that action costing them a bit. Yet, this majority believes its a minority due to media's climate silence. -- @thenation.com

Primaries for senators

I don't know, dude, what is going to get you out? Since a modicum of human decency and care for your constituents don't appear to be on the table...

🤬🤬🤬

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

(gentle reminder that we, the audience, did not see the Perfect Vision in your head, & think this one is pretty awesome! 💚)

Let the record also show that you *survived* the asthma attack & can go back to editing after you've sorted out the air intake thing.

Commiserations-- I've been feeling very Smol Anna since about 4:30 "My brain is awake, and so am I!" but with about Elsa's level of enthusiasm...

A few panels from the coloring guide: a scorpion, an isopod, and a tachinid fly (along with their info).

It's almost the weekend! 🥳

If you're looking for something for you and/or your kids to do, I've recently re-uploaded my arthropod coloring guide 🎨

Please feel free to share, print, and [definitely] have fun with it!!!

Excellent intervention! 😆

The words "FIX YOUR HEARTS OR DIE" placed over David Lynch's face (a still from TWIN PEAKS THE RETURN).

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

virtue signalling is good actually
