everybody transgender

NRE feels different this time - I am a bundle of anxieties in addition to all the good feels. Having to sit and focus to remind myself things are awesome, and reflection reveals that they absolutely are.

the only moral action is to abolish ICE and punish those who are members of ICE

Billie Eilish Calls on Billionaires to Support People in Need: 'No Hate, But Give Your Money Away' Billie Eilish donates $11.5 million from 'Hit Me Hard and Soft' tour to charity and calls on billionaires to support people in need during hard times.

I don't see a lot of people talking about this, so I want to highlight something GOOD

Billie Eilish stood in a room full of billionaires and said "you're billionaires... Why?"

She donated 11.5 MILLION DOLLARS to food equity and climate orgs, which Stephen Colbert announced to said billionaires.

the second best time to listen to us, believe us, and fight for us

IS NOW

Viva la resistance

When I saw you'd 100%'ed the game I was curious if you got tired in the back third and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one feeling that Silksong has an Act 3 problem in terms of how grueling the later challenges are.

What's an album you love every song on?

What is the point of all this writing and voice work if characters can only talk to each other in 2-4 sentence conversations and the only means of interacting with each other is throwing bottles of wine

Hades had this too where you did the big thing and it was like "congratulations do it ten more times" and then you did that and it was like "I guess you can continue to exist aimlessly doing the same task forever but robbed of all sense of purpose or direction" like congrats on your 9-5 I guess

Keep pushing towards some kind of narrative resolution in Hades II but I might just have to accept that it doesn't have a particularly satisfying one. I liked the "ending" but wrapping up any additional plot threads has been a slog and the narrative payoffs have been pretty dim lights.

democrats of all stripes should be rallying around kat abughazaleh asap. it doesnt matter where you stand ideologically. trying to jail dissenters is fundamentally unamerican and 100% fascist. democratic leaders at all levels should be making noise about it. you dont need a poll or focus group.

Is the entire premise that a man is allergic to tomatoes?

Make no mistake about it: This administration is trying to take away your ability to protest their new secret police force and even stand next to those who do so, and they are abusing the legal system to do so.

Kat is not afraid. I'm not either. We all have to stand together here. We will win.

this is absolutely insane and yet another sign that the trump administration is attempting to become a full on authoritarian government regime

I think it's a product of exceptionalism interwoven in the narrative - if I'm doing good, others didn't work as hard. Nevermind prosperity is tied to how everyone does, nevermind that raining trash down the hill means I must live in constant fear of falling myself. Nevermind basic fucking decency.

friend shared this, immediately updated my settings

Feel generally monomaniacal trying to focus on perfecting dishes over and over - but I made gnocchi in brown butter and sage for dinner and egg bites for breakfast in less time than it used to take to make either one of those dishes so I guess taking time to master with repetition is good.

Love to see Chappell Roan using her power for good.

Or any number of conservative-aligned organizations outside the government. I would be delighted to be able to identify the source but I'm not exactly up on bots beyond being passably capable of identifying when they're around.

Something I'm noticing a lot of lately on Youtube is serious pro-ICE botting activity on any local news videos about Portland - empty YT channels posting right after the fact with misinfo and weirdly high like counts. It's highly directed to paving the road for violence towards protestors.

Background with cream, blue and yellow curved shapes with purple text over it, reading "Not in Our Name Over fifty thousand cis women have signed an open letter rejecting the false narrative that trans women are a danger to women. Add your name"

Over 50,000 cis women have signed the @nionwomen.bsky.social open letter rejecting the narrative that trans women are a danger to women.

The real threat to women has never been trans women. The real threat to women is male violence.

Portland! Had a lovely night out and I'm heading to the protests on Saturday.

No Kings protests are on the 18th nationwide come join the frogs fighting fascism

They're finally starting to get it.

These buzzwords feel meaningless, but the meaning they do have are things I vehemently do not want from an OS.

*quite late* in the bit but #47 is my favorite.
