Katy (AKA Whimsibee)

It's so infuriating because what am I even supposed to do? I'm sending letters to my representatives, I'm getting loudly mad about this admin, but my reps are just, what, writing a statement condemning the action? Giving him a very light slap on the wrist? If they dont get him out of there...

Kennedy Removes All C.D.C. Vaccine Panel Experts

As expected, RFK Jr. was lying during his confirmation hearing and now is ratfucking the vaccination system in the US.

The vast majority of the public does not want this and yet again it’s clear that the Republican administration does not serve the electorate.

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

Just read this whole thing and it's so fun, I'm reposting so I remember to check on it every now and then AND so more people see it hopefully maybe

I did almost buy a sardine doormat when I got into my first apartment a few months ago, I didn't end up getting BUT I can say as an example of a white woman almost falling for the out of the blue sardine trend it is all because little fishies are cute and the colors are fun

They’re both very evil and very stupid

The Pokemon Whimsicott with devious red laser eyes

idk if you're a Wolfey fan but this just appeared in a video and I needed a fellow whimsicott fan to see @whimsicottwednesday.pmd.social

I was out on a walk at dusk and the clouds were slightly covering it, but the moon was very pretty tonight, my phone doesn't do its beauty justice

I was going to make a joke about my username being whimsibee then I remembered this is the one social media where someone took the name before I got here

Anyways, a whimsicott as sweet as honey, call that a whimsibee

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Reposting so I remember this exists in a couple years once it comes out cause oh my GOD this looks so cool

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

Any talk you hear from the current administration about making the US more competitive in science and technology is utter bullshit. What they are doing is sabotaging our country for years if not decades to come.

You got it boss 🫡

I am embarrassed at how long it took for me to understand the joke

YEAAAAAAHHHHH HAPPY WHIMSICOTT WEDNESDAY

A screenshot of the reading app Storygraph showing that the poster's to be read list is 361 books long

And then I keep reading books that I find interesting in the moment that aren't actually on my tbr... my storygraph tbr is weeping

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.

Oh! Then happy frontal lobe development day, enjoy the raisin bran!!

I haven’t lived through the collapse of a civilisation before

I study history so I have read the guidebooks, but they don’t quite capture the experience of being there

In gamedev, we joke about how we shouldn't care so much because "we ain't curing cancer" so chill, right?

But you know what? These last few weeks reminded me that the Arts, esp accessible Art like videogames is incredibly important because games have a big place in sculpting cultural norms.

Is this you telling us it is your birthday, cause if it is then happy birthday!! If it is not then happy unbirthday and happy unofficial raisin bran day??

I feel like I'm living through another burning of the library of alexandria

Seems like a good time to point out that you can download from the library of congress, and it would be worthwhile to download probably as much as you can while you can

its whimsicott wednesday im gonna go explode now bye

Also these guys but I had to put my favorites up there first, and if I'm being honest I'd probably just pick up so many pokemon to rescue them it would be concerning, like I just can go grab pokemon from the forest and pamper them?? Just like that?? It would be a problem haha

Me and my canon pokemon team!
