The new Massive Attack x Tom Waits track and video are worth a listen and watch.
Seriously: Smart, brave, curious humans being kind to each other and to dogs would fix the whole world.
Omg. I cackled.
Happiest day to you both! <3
Yessss. The work IS the win. It's taken me so long to truly embrace that (and there are some days where I still struggle). It's one of those hindsight things too because I learned that, while I am grateful for the success and stuff, it doesn't give me what I thought I wanted.
I believe this so hard, and it's something I try to tell my students all the time. <3
Come on then, and remove him.
Jesus got up one day a little later than usual. He had been dreaming so deep there was nothing left in his head. What was it? A nightmare, dead bodies walking all around him, eyes rolled back, skin falling off. But he wasn't afraid of that. It was a beautiful day. How 'bout some coffee? Don't mind if I do. Take a little ride on my donkey, I love that donkey. Hell, I love everybody.
My traditional Easter reading, from James Tate.
In addition: support trans artists as often as you can. If you don't have the money, spread the word. If you don't have the platform to spread the word, tell the artists directly how much you love their work.
IT ALL MATTERS. ❤️
We all need something beautiful right now. ❤️

Here’s to 54 years alive!
I wouldn’t be here without so many of you—the way you offer your hearts and hands and heads to inspire, delight, and support me. Every year I grow smarter, kinder, stronger, more me. Thank you for being part of that. ❤️
Missing you beauties!
OH MY GOD ❤️😍
Everyone pony the fuck fpr the librarian who just got sacked for refusing to remove LGBTQ books from the kids' section of the library.
I love these books. Go get you some!
I Like OGoA, but I'm not sure what my 2nd fave book would be.
But... the OGoA one shot; "Best Leave Them Ghost Alone" Is my favorite TTRPG adventure ever, and for me it's not even close.
I'm continually amazed by it when I run it, and I'm not sure how @shannagermain.bsky.social even did it.
OMG. Thank you. <3 <3 <3
The cover of "We Are All Mad Here" by Shanna Germain and published by Monte Cook Games
7. We Are All Mad Here by @shannagermain.bsky.social @montecookgames.com is another fabulous game I'm super happy to have in my collection.
What a pleasure this game is. It's such a breath of fresh air. I really enjoy the touchstones it provides as well.
Thank you so much <3
Holy New York.
Me doing dino research today:
And now we've hit the horny group of scientists who got to name things.
Starting a diary full of lies so when I die my loved ones read it and go:
“Wait… WHAT?”
Confusion is my final gift.
YAY! Happy freaking birthday!
SUDDENLY, A TIGER!
This is what happens when you get an amazing group of vislae together and one of them has maybe a little social anxiety.
