I passed a suped up, matte black, VW hatchback and could only think: Why?" #random

The number of times I tell my #music app to play 21 Jump Street instead of 21 Pilots tells you how firmly #GenX I am. 😂😂

So I opened up a pdf doc today to read and adobe's ai appeared automatically at the top of the window to say, "This appears to be a long document. Would you like ai to summarize it for you?" It was only 27pgs long. NO! STOP INFLICTING AI ON US! ARGH! #LetPeopleRead.

After watching The Residence *ahem* many, many times (kinda waiting for Nflix to tell me to get a life), it occurs to me that the "asshole" character, Harry Hollinger, is the only one who always addresses Cordelia by "Detective." Looovvve the inherent contradiction. #random

this is why I do the AMC subscription. even though they just hiked the price to $27.99, that's still more cost effective if you see even 2 movies a month. and you know me. I see wayyy more than 2 movies a month. 😂

Not only that but the sec. of health, who isn't a MD, wants to make a list of all the autistic people in the country. Now why would he want that???

To write anything this week. It's been too long.
More specifically, my epic #LGBTQIA+ #fantasy novel and my #LGBTQIA+ #horror sequel.

I frequently get confused on "repost" and "quote post" which is super annoying on a personal level. I meant to say, "fucking finally, some good news!" With the last post about the deaf/blind student funding post.

Students With Hearing and Vision Loss Get Funding Back Despite Trump’s Anti-DEI Campaign Following public outcry, the Department of Education has reversed its decision to cut funding for students who have both hearing and vision loss, opting instead to reroute grants to an organization th...

IMPORTANT

Yes. Absolutely.

I had the same thought!

Oh no! Good luck!!

Mom: Your hair looks great!
Me: Thanks! I'm chopping it off this weekend.
Mom: But why?!
Me: Because I can see my bangs without using a mirror.

Well that's not good

Not surprised at all. Already got mine for this year!

The Alt: After years of “hallucinating” monsters & a hellish world, Bryn discovers it’s all real. She sets out to rescue the woman trapped there who saved Bryn’s life as a teen. Can she do so before that hell breaks through to Earth & more people die? #Horror #DVPit #A #FoundFamily #LGBT #ND

The Arbiter: San Francisco desperately needs an Arbiter after 90yrs w/o one. Enter dogged reporter Cecily suddenly bestowed w/power to compel Others-vampires, fae, sirens & more-to tell the truth. She must choose between her lifelong dreams & a destiny to keep her city safe #CF #DVPit #A #LGBT #ND

Thanks! 😁

Thanks!

The Arbiter: Cecily wakes from a coma w/the power to make people tell the truth. Accepting a destiny of refereeing vampires, fae, sirens & more means giving up her dreams & ambitions. But if she doesn't, San Francisco will pay the price. What's a reporter to do? #CF #DVPit #A #LGBT #ND

The Alt: Years ago, Mara saved Bryn's life in a realm of monsters & now Bryn's on a mission to rescue her. She recruits nonbinary Sam who also sees the monsters. Can they close whatever portal's opening - & save Mara - before more people die? #Horror #A #DVPit #LGBT #ND #FoundFamily

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.

This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.

Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

Colorful banner on the side of a red barn. Across the top, it says average age of farmed animals. It shows that chickens, lambs, turkeys, ducks, pigs, and cows all have extremely short lives in agriculture, compared to their natural lifespan.

Today is the first day Animal Welfare Week, which happens every year October 3-9. To mark the day we’d love to show you this banner that hangs on the big barn here. It shows the average natural lifespan of some of our animals vs. how long they would’ve lived in an agricultural production setting.

Finally some good news!

A bowl of red vegetable curry with tofu

I've been thinking about a proper curry for weeks now mmmm

Vote in 2026 to finally put a check on Trump and the GOP. Our nation’s future depends on it.

I just watched this whole video and you should too. It's an amazing breakdown of the "statistic" used in last Monday's insane press conference. And now I have a new fave YouTuber, so bonus!

I had the same thought. I want Tylenol to sue them into dust. And I'm pissed they get to be the "good guys" in this situation.
