image of a website pop-up call button from BadInternetBills.com prompting action about age gating and censorship bills with slots to enter phone number and zip code.
🚨KOSA, app store restrictions and ID checks are expected to be reviewed by House Energy and Commerce Committee this week, bringing us that much closer to a censored Internet under the guise of “kids safety"!
We have to keep up the pressure against these bills! www.badinternetbills.com
Also there are streaming tickets available! If you can’t be in LA for the reading you can stream it for two weeks after!!

I'm pleased to announce that @doonpook.bsky.social and I will be debuting our brand new pilot script, NPCs, as a table-read at the Joy Who Lived festival on April 12th!
The tavern is for tourists, and the "side quests" are their entire lives.

lol incredible AIPAC ad. Quoting Kat's high school newspaper from when she was literally 16 years old. An AI generated campaign pin that gives up on spelling her name, seemingly making her Hawaiian. Another AI generated pin that makes Marco Rubio extremely handsome for no reason. Fantastic work. 🧑🍳😘

Huh! I still don’t think I have desire to go myself, but maybe I’d at least be okay accompanying people now

“all prior visits were deeply uncomfortable.”
Oh hell, is this something we need to add to the “there were signs” list?

And if you can afford to help support all that, I've got a Patreon, and I'll even put your name in a slide on my future videos. 😊
(And if you can't afford that, you can still sign up for the free tier of my Patreon, where you'll get most of the notices, just on delay.)
What do you get if you back me on Patreon? Satisfaction and bragging rights. There are no exclusive benefits to speak of...though you'll usually get to see my videos a day or two before everybody else. Like this cover of "Toxic," which dropped Friday night on Patreon and just now for y'all.

Happening now: a protest in Chicago's federal plaza is underway in response to US and Israeli strikes on Iran earlier today.
Chicago Ald. Byron Sigcho Lopez just addressed the crowd, which I'd put at a couple hundred people strong. A lone counterprotestor is also posted up across the street.
If you think the only reason we’re bombing Iran is to cover up the Epstein files then you haven’t been paying attention for twenty years or more

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

The Swift Performance team isn’t *my* team, but they’re in my hallway. Or in London if you’d prefer. They’re looking for an engineer who’s not afraid of optimizers. jobs.apple.com/en-us/detail...

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

solidarity with all marginalized people in Kansas.
you are not alone. together we are going to build the better world we all deserve.
If a trans person were caught jaywalking Republicans would be ranting about it every chance they got, meanwhile a trans person JUMPED INTO LAKE MICHIGAN IN THE WINTER AND RESCUED A STRANGER’S BABY and it’s crickets.

Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE.
Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit.
www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...
I was the first person to call my Congresswoman's office about this bill. It was fast and easy, and the aide I spoke to was pleasant--and horrified when she heard what they're trying to get away with. Please. Help protect our trans siblings.
