When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

I do really love succulents, I’m interested in that book for this reason.

I have no concrete response, just that I am now going to think about this for longer then I should probably.

Man Brings Lunch From Home To Cut Down On Small Joys RICHMOND, VA—Speaking with reporters while opening Ziploc baggies of pretzel twists and baby carrots, local man Stan Keppler said Monday that he has started bringing in lunch from home to cut down on his small joys. “Making your own lunch each day is a great way to reduce your simple pleasures throughout the week—it’s already made a huge difference for me,” the 38-year-old insurance underwriter said as he unwrapped a plain turkey sandwich from aluminum foil that he had woken up 15 minutes early this morning to prepare. “I used to go out for lunch with coworkers and actually enjoy myself every day, but now I just sit at my desk and eat something I packed from home. It’s quick, easy, and has cut my weekly sense of gratification by at least half.” Keppler went on to say that he is considering canceling his cable service as well, which would save him 90 hours of genuine relaxation time a month.

Abrego Garcia’s Wife Forced to Move Into Safe House After DHS Shares Her Address on X “I don’t feel safe when the government posts my address,” Jennifer Vasquez Sura said in an interview.

Jennifer Vasquez Sura, Abrego Garcia’s wife, has expressed grave fears over her family’s safety. The attention her family has received due to her husband’s case is worrying, she said — especially after DHS shared details about the family’s whereabouts to millions of social media users.

This is always a good thing to promote, buying from indie presses helps keep a broad ecosystem of writing out there, a lot of small presses are one person affairs and they put so much love money time into them

FDA Issues Passive-Aggressive Reminder That Serving Tongs There For A Reason

I’ve been trying to widen my scope of banned books to read beyond the k-12 lists, this is one I had only heard of in passing and wasn’t aware of what it was about at all. But I might give it a read as I’m in my early 20s and I’ve got about a year by your estimate before I wouldn’t enjoy it 😅😂

We are here.
Because the modern day Hitler fears education, books that change minds & people who stand for what’s right.

A quote from AT THE EDGE OF EMPIRE by Edward Wong, in which Wong is speaking with Chinese writer Murong Xuecun: "The worst effect of the censorship is the psychological impact on writers," he said in between drags on a cigarette on his balcony. "When I was working on my first book, I didn't care whether it would be published, so I wrote whatever I wanted. Now, after I have published a few books, I can clearly feel the impact of censorship when I write. For example, I'll think of a sentence, and then realize that it will for sure get deleted. Then I won't even write it down. This self-censoring is the worst."

Thinking about #bannedbooks while reading AT THE EDGE OF EMPIRE by @ewong.bsky.social — In one chapter Wong interviews Chinese writer Murong Xuecun, who says: "The worst effect of the censorship is the psychological impact on writers." I fear this is happening to American writers right now.

This looks amazing!

listening to #everythingistuberculosis audiobook on Spotify to have something relaxing in the background because I refuse to listen to a recently released podcast right now and there is only so much #Hermitcraft content I can consume before running out

Guess what? We’re still here. 😂

People are asking what they can do:

1) Keep calling your electeds!
2) If you’re local to DC, come protest at OPM & the Old Executive Bldg, where word has it Musk works out of. (haven’t confirmed that)

Just stay on public sidewalks and be kind to federal employees.

I can't even understand half of what your replies even mean. I'm also confused by "pro-choice resister" because the only context that gives me is you are against reproductive rights & health autonomy. Which is definitely misogynistic.

Bear is a woman.

I don't even know what being a pro-choice resister even means is what's throwing me off in this. Bear is obviously not MAGA, that's a given. I just haven't even heard the term pro-choice resister.

I always heard about the block list thing on here but for the life of me I cannot figure out how it works
