“A reporter who publishes only what the government ‘authorizes’ is doing something other than reporting,” said Katie Fallow, deputy litigation director at the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University @katiefallow.bsky.social

It's such an exhausting and depressing state to live in, bc instead of enjoying the time you have with people, you're constantly anxious about when something else bad is gonna happen. But it's also so hard to break out of

The worst part about grief that no one really ever tells you is that once you lose a lot of people close to you, you basically enter a stage of pre-grieving the loss of the people in your life who are still alive. Bc it's hard not to be constantly thinking about who's going to be the next one to go

start using "fanworks" again instead of "content" let's go people

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Hell yeah Tim Russ! Standing for Treks values ❤️❤️ makes me even more excited to hear him in the next Star Trek Khan episode.

BI REMINDER 💜Bisexual women are still bi even if they're dating men 🩷Bisexual men exist, and they're not "just gay" 💙Ace/Aro bisexuals, & Nonbinary bisexuals exist 💜Sexual orientation is about attraction, not action 🩷Bisexuals dont need to have dated all the genders/gender identities they re attracted to - to know they're attracted to them @CapriCampeau

September is Bi Visibility Month, so perceiving me may be easier, as all bisexuals have disadvantage on stealth rolls until Halloween 1st.

It’s a cat silently judging you in the nighttime

It may also just be a culmination of the last three years just being absolutely brutal physically and emotionally, but who's to say really 🤷🏾‍♂️

My anxiety has been kicking my ass the last week or so and I'm not sure what triggered it, but I think it's bc I've been getting more headaches lately and just feeling more burnt out in general, and that always make me more anxious in general, bc I'm worried something is medically wrong with me 😑

Me watching some high fantasy shit: I would simply not be corrupted by the magical object. If it is actively harming you why don't you just put it down. Idiot Me receiving psychic damage 23 hours a day from my phone: Ouuughhhh OOUUuuwwwwaaaaaa ooaaaaghuuuuuhhhowwgahhhhh guuuuuwah

i think about this tweet every single day

Today in hot takes from white women who rather blame anything except their relatives

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

Example 👀

They're good for this one (1) particular thing!

As much as I dislike ig and meta as a company in general, I have to admit their algorithm for local events and restaurants is really good. I've found so many events, concerts, restaurants, etc. just by ig ads that pop up in my stories. This is like the only acceptable use of data mining for me lol

I'm so sorry, sending lots of love 💜💜🫂

Really hate how Pinterest is flooded with ai garbage now, you can't even filter it out of your searches, you have to click inside each individual photo now to see if it's labeled "modified by AI" to know for sure

"I can't brainstorm without ai" "I can't draw without ai" "I can't write without ai" "Ai summarized it for me cause it's too hard of a read"
So what exactly /can/ you do? Because you sound fucking useless to me

I am trying SO hard to love in spite of it all

I've found my people

imagine hating me and i’m just over here processing a lifetime of trauma

Crazy that I just started a rewatch today not even knowing it was the anniversary. Literally was just in the mood to go back lol

The daily struggle of hating everything that social media is and has become these days versus not wanting to lose connection to all the friends and people I've met using it over the years. But the older I get the harder it is to maintain those relationships outside of being constantly online all day

I am very much still fucked up rn, but being autistic and always masking through every day of life, I've learned how to push through. But some days I just don't have it in me to mask, and so it's hard for me to be present with anyone, even family. I'm just exhausted and would very much like a break

The thing with grief is every loss is different and it sucks no matter how many times you go through it. Listening to the voicemails of my dad and it still hasn't really hit me that I'll never see him again. Or that his remains are upstairs sitting in the guest room until we decide where to put them

Yeah definitely. It's so wild too, like I couldn't get into the visual voicemail app and they weren't saved in the regular voicemail box, but once I turned off wifi and it stopped trying to authenticate the phone number, it actually let me open the app and download them. Really blind shot of luck

I just feel really relieved, we have to trade the old phones in and I would've hated to erase the phone knowing she'd never have the voice mails again. But I was able to download them and make backups. We don't have a lot of videos of him so this is a way she'll be able hear his voice again
