Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

A pink background decorated with rainbows and dashed lines in the colors of the lesbian pride flag. The text reads, “Lesbian Visibility Week Bundle; 94 sapphic & lesbian books for $40 USD; 4/20 - 4/26; exclusively on Itch.io”
Hello BlueSky.

headline related to April 2026 warehouse fire in San Bernadino county accompanied by photo of a night sky lit orange by fire with smoke rising from a burning warehouse
It's not lost on me that 260 years after oppressive taxation of paper & documents necessary to live and & work led to Stamp Act protests that precipitated revolution, a new revolution's earliest expressions might be taking form in the burning of warehouses of life's paper (toilet, kitchen, napkin).
Way to go!!
You want awesome fantasy stories.
Here's an excellent place to get a book full of them.

I'm so disappointed to hear this. Thanks for sounding the alarm bell.
What what or something!!!!
Sending love and hugs, just like Jess would.

Absolutely fascinating series. Terrifying in its implications.
Amen. Double for all of us.
The book Monstera is pictured against a lime green backdrop with flowers. The book features a bouquet of florals with a Monstera leaf and a bloody hand holding a gardening implement. You have never wanted to lick a book so bad in your life.
Is it an exhaustive list?
No.
Is it still true?
Very much yes.
Out October 13.

If you’ve been moved & inspired by Artemis, NASA needs your help. Literally during A2, the president proposed cutting NASA science 47%, canceling 54 missions, including many already in-flight. To help stop these cuts, check out @planetarysociety.bsky.social www.planetary.org/save-nasa-sc...
ICE makes America less safe. Unqualified, untrained, trigger-happy maniacs roaming the streets is gang culture or terrorism, not law enforcement.
I’ve been doing more creative things here and there. I’m still proud of this one.
Attacking these people is senseless, needless.
I almost think it'll be nuclear.
I’m so glad you helped others see that hope. I know I am very open to it. Much love friend.
I love it!
I’m glad I stumbled on this answer. Got some demons to get out of my head these days.
You’ve done great. Take that victory lap.
NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA
Makes sense. Will the author be losing out on potential payment? Would the author want to use it to directly promote?
I love this too.
A New York Times graphic showing public support for US military intervention in the first days of international conflicts: World War II (1941): 97% Afghanistan War (2001): 92% Persian Gulf War (1991): 82% Panama (1989): 80% Iraq War (2003): 76% Korean War (1950): 75% Kosovo (1999): 58% Grenada (1983): 53% Libya Intervention (2011): 47% Iran War (2026): 41% Note: There is no polling on public approval of the Vietnam War at the start of the conflict.
The American people are firmly against Trump’s war of choice with Iran. Email your Members of Congress and urge them to do everything in their power to end Trump’s illegal war: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...
I’m starting to wonder if there’s a major categorical schism happening: Protestantism dividing into what I’ll call Christ-based and Ministry-based camps.
The Christ-based would be those who favor Christ directly.
Ministry-based would be those using ministry as their goal.
I’ve found I get whole dollars at closer to $20.
Still doesn’t change the need to have multiple channels for assembling physical books.
You’re further convincing me that I need to assemble a print channel through Amazon as well.
