When @notalawyer.bsky.social first started talking I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. Aubrey and Peter in the same podcast?!

It's #transdayofvisibility and I would not presume that my opinion *matters* -- but it appears we're in a time where everybody should make this clear: trans rights are human rights, I support my trans friends and fellow creators. Everyone deserves the right to flourish as human beings.

Sure! "Cyclists have a right to the road, too, you noisy, polluting, inconsiderate maniacs! I hope gas goes up to eight bucks a gallon!"

$8 a gallon for gas???

That's right

This was great!

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

High Net Worth Individual is the most hilarious coinage of the new gilded age. Like, as a High Net Worth Individual, I have to say...it is pretty weird that we needed a politically correct, four-word term for "wealthy."

Even LinkedIn has puzzles now, apparently.

My kid's playlists are a lot of Danny Go at this point.

Aaaand checking out your book at the library.

Not just Ireland. Even American bestselling authors are hardly rich.

I am regularly on the Amazon bestseller list in my genre (under a penname), and I make enough for my student loan payment and nothing more.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Curriculum Vitae let's say you won the race and that the prize was another race that you did not drink the wine of victory but rather your own salt that you never listened to the cheers but only to dogs barking and that your shadow your own shadow was your only and disloyal competitor

One of the most incredible things about people buying into this moral panic is believing that there is anything in the American healthcare system outside of an ER that is done quickly.

you're not a bad person for liking harry potter, you're a bad person for giving any amount of positive press or money to it because it directly funds harm, it's 2026 and you should know this already. this has been going on for quite a long while. this will be my last post on the subject.

This is why "oh I never liked Harry Potter" "ew, I always hated Starbucks" humble bragging rubs me the wrong way. You don't get points for it, and the quality of the product doesn't really matter

Lofi Teatime – No AI Study Playlist YouTube video by lofi esmeralda

Ahhh, my first playlist! And I made the art 100% myself. I don't consider myself a visual artist, so I'm really proud of what I've accomplished.

A Generation Got Told to 'Just Try Harder.' The Neuroscience Just Said 'That Was Never Going to Work. 400 people with ADHD told me what advice destroyed them. The research just said "yeah, we knew."

Yes, it’s a Substack article. It may also be the best ADHD article I’ve ever read. If it might help someone I’m willing to put it out there.

Another example where I just assumed/thought/read the vaccine rollbacks were a done deal BUT NO.

They were illegal, immediately challenged in court, and overturned today.

Keep suing and don't believe any of it.

Oh, do romance readers read too much? Of the wrong kind of books, you say? In the wrong kind of language, you say? Are they too easy, too sexy, too fun, too silly? And we’re pretending this is not The argument that people have made against romance since (checks library) 1785?
