Daily reminder that if you don't know what to do right now, masking in public is possibly the simplest, most accessible act of resistance available to us.
They're attacking disability rights and our access to healthcare for a reason. Masking is a visible sign of solidarity, and it matters. So much.

Trying to think up Halloween costumes and my brain offered the following solutions, in order:
1. David Rose
2. Little Alex Horne
3. Christmas tree
4. Chair
I feel like this says a lot about me. Anyway, I need a costume for a party a week from now. So I guess we'll see what happens.

Absolute best thing I've seen come out of this year's mineral cup
I would say tugtupite is more pink than red, but it's reindeer blood so I'm calling it close enough to Red vs Blue again.
May the best mineral lose.

Anyone who votes to end birthright citizenship as it is understood now, in defiance of clear law and the tradition they claim to value?
They are voting to create a permanent underclass of rightness, stateless people in the United States. They are voting to bring back slavery.

short 🧵 on what autism and transgender pseudoscience & disinformation have in common:
so Tylenol supposedly causes autism, but so does MMR, despite autism predating either of them – how could this be? negativity bias! this is why when ppl consider something to be "bad" they can invent hundreds of causes w/little evidence & ppl will believe it...

I'm glad something actually mobilized people, but yeah.... it's upsetting that it was this.
Kimmel’s average nightly audience is 1.6m (link), and there are 2.8m trans people in the United States alone. Our social maps might be pretty closed but I’m guessing the number of people who know us is more than that www.nytimes.com/2025/09/23/b...

defund the police is confrontational, yes. it needs to be, because this is an issue that needs to be confronted. not dodged around, not trying to find some phrasing that you hope tricks cops into not noticing that you're reducing their power. everything else keeps trying to dodge the confrontation.

Our paper found that people with generalized joint #hypermobility have a 23% higher risk of #LongCOVID while people with extreme hypermobility have a 76% higher risk of #LongCOVID. This thread focuses on possible explanations for the higher risk. 1/20

The full quote was "I kinda wanna go wild and put a loft bed in our dining room."
And since said loft bed has a dining nook underneath it, and costs less than any dining nook in existence, I stand by this idea.
