Can vouch for the legitimacy of this crowdfund.
Ace is a sweet Pitbull that was rescued on Christmas night after he likely fled a dog fight, he needs a lot of medical care and a surgery that I unfortunately can't cover, we opened this gofundme to help with his care

I think a lot of people don't understand that online jokes have their own rhythm and cadence and that's why what would've been a fun joke just falls flat:

So hey new virus mutation just dropped. If you have a horrible sore throat, fever that won't go down with NSAIDs, bad headaches, PLUS all the other symptoms of the flu, but are testing negative for COVID and Flu A&B on home tests?

You have Subclade K/H3N2. You have the flu and it will suck.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later

Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

2 days left for your purchases to also support defendants persecuted (I know what I said) for protesting ICE in Texas.

It's 10% of net sales, not net profits—I misspoke.
Hello, all.

tl;dr @nerdykeppie.bsky.social is donating 10% net profit of December's resin item sales to the legal bills of anti-ICE protestors, including a trans woman I'm writing to in detention.

Here's what gets stuff donated:

i think what gets overlooked is that part of the humor and charm of edits like these is that you're perfectly aware that someone sat down and spent their own time making it. they chose to do something cool or silly or stupid or genius, regardless of the results

that human element elevates the work
Who needs AI when we had stuff like this? I’ll take photoshop edits over the slop any day

Don't stop chewing out your electeds about this. Gender-affirming healhcare IS healthcare, period, and cis kids are allowed the exact same hormone therapies without all the brouhaha. Banning care WILL kill kids, period.
Attorneys General in 20 blue states are challenging the Trump administration's attempts to unilaterally end gender affirming care for youth through executive decree.

That and two other court cases show that the fight for trans rights is just getting started.
Blue State AGs Unite to Challenge Trump’s Assault on Trans Kids — Assigned
Intimidation of doctors and invasion of patient privacy are being fought in the courts. A radical right-wing assault on academic freedom is headed there as well. The week’s top trans news story lines.

SO, you want to network but don't know where to begin.

1. DON'T. Make friends instead
2. It's not about what they can do for you
3. Famous people are just people first
4. If you do have to gush, don't just say 'i love your work' , pick one thing and say why. Open ended compliments are awkward

A phrase I'd like to see become more common is "righteous anger". There are times you SHOULD be angry and let people know it. And lately it feels like we're being flooded with these kinds of situations, and the ones telling us to "calm down" or "be nice" makes me think they're, at best, oblivious.
