No Kings includes Draft Kings

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Portrait illo of a young lady holding a frame up to her torso. There is a mixture of larkspur, lavender and dahlias springing from the frame. The lady is wearing large glasses, braids, a flower crown and a skeleton dress. There's a heart lightbulb hanging in front of the frame. Drawn by gdbee in Jan 2026

TOP & REASONS WHY ICE IS SPOTIFY'S #1 FAN 1) Spotify is running ICE ads in between your favorite songs 2) Spotify claims that ICE recruitment ads DID NOT violate it's ad policies 3) While ICE terrorizes communities, Spotify is helping boost their recruitment efforts 4) Spotify would rather be wrapped in complicity to ICE's terror than refuse ICE ad money indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

As long as Spotify is willing to take money from ICE, they don’t need (or deserve) free advertising for Spotify Wrapped: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

one of my cats wakes us up half an hour before feeding time every day. we never get up till the alarm goes off, but he won't learn. simply meowing is too amateur for this boy, he sits purring by my head and chews my hair (very gross) but this morning he evolved to chewing on my husband's toes.

Not very unhinged, but: Stop reading a book if you're bouncing off of it. Stop "powering through." You're just wasting your time. You don't get a gold star for finishing books you're not enjoying reading.

I remember my childhood landline, my Australian mobile number, mine and my husband's current Canadian mobile number, and the jingle for the Australian reading-writing hotline: ONE THREE DOUBLE-OH! SIX TRIPLE FIIIIVE OH SIX
only the most important numbers

Gonna pop a Tylenol and look at some trains to see what all the fuss is about.

attachment is the root of all suffering, so burn your own house down and poison your loved ones immediately.

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.
