Gonna be honest, it has always annoyed me when people try to "be nice" by yielding their right-of-way to me. I don't want you to try to make my trip faster, or more convenient. I want you to make my trip predictable. Just follow the rules of the road and you'll be on my good side.
Someone at @periscopefilm.bsky.social looked at the calendar and understood the assignment.

MURDERBOT is so good.
Have I said that lately?
Have I mentioned how good the Murderbot books are, and how much I enjoyed the Murderbot TV show?
Hope so.

If I were a CEO who really believed this I wouldn’t just be issuing warnings. I would be demanding huge new taxes on the richest to set up UBI before I get executed.
A digital illustration done in simple contour lines and rough pencil coloring on neutral tinted paper background of a woman reclining on a surface in a faint. Seen from a foreshortened angle from her knees and feet. She’s laying on one hip with her torso twisting to supine. The back of one hand lays across her forehead and the other is held limply on her ribs. Her head is back and her red curls spread out on the ground around her. She’s wearing a white, voluminous and old fashioned night dress. Orange lettering in an Art Nouveau style to the right reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

White supremacy harms white people. The ruling class has convinced us that a bigger piece of a small pie is better than sharing a big pie evenly.
Imagine how insanely good the economy would be if we didn't artificially slow it down with pointless discrimination??
The sky above the port was the color of television tuned to a dead channel. Case 5:84
The mandate from Trump and Miller is clear: Our neighbors will continue to be terrorized, detention will continue to be unsafe, and fascists will continue to try to profit from our pain.
We must abolish ICE and dismantle DHS.
The courts ruled that the Trump Administration’s policy of deporting immigrants to third countries is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Punto.
With @warren.senate.gov , I am investigating the administration's order to follow-through with their deportation plans despite the court's ruling.

In Heated Rivalry, was there ever a moment when two women were on screen and speaking at the same time?
As in, not members of a crowd but actively participating in the scene
I'm not sure that any female characters in that show even knew any other women! The smoothie shop, I guess
yeah, that's perfect for this

You know what's a "deliberate act that put lives in danger"?
An eviction
if you are wondering "but what is it good for then and why are companies pushing it so hard"
the answers are "it is good for centralizing power and rationalizing harm"
and "because it is good for centralizing power and rationalizing harm"

“I really want to hold onto the distinction between someone who is actually my enemy and someone who is talking out of their ass, or making me mad right now, or who has hurt me, or become my opponent in a particular moment. Those are not all the same thing. And if I start treating them as though they are, that distorts my politics and makes me worse at navigating conflict. When I am dealing with my own communities, my responses actually help define, not only who I am, but who I am in relation to those people, and if I am treating them like the enemy anytime we disagree, I am going to become their enemy, whatever my intentions are.” - Kelly Hayes

The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!
