Just a frozen cheesecake from the grocery store because I can only be a menace in the kitchen so much in one day. But I topped it with the lavender earl grey whipped cream from @kiricallaghan.com’s book and some blueberries and holy shit it’s amazing

Good GOD.
ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Yellow has such an intensely complicated history throughout the world—like any color, I suppose.
In Victorian times, it was seen as a shade of rebellion against repression, but also as a color of contamination—Oscar Wilde was shamed in headlines for carrying a “yellow book” when he was arrested.

When you have Für Elise stuck in your head and your ADHD thinks, “would it help if we pretended we’re playing it on the piano like we used to and probably don’t remember how?” And now it’s even further cemented in your brain but also piano fingering on your desk is kinda soothing, but also omg stop

Anyone else a little bit devastated when you realize too late that the notebook you bought has perforated pages and now you have to go against the grain of your brain that says, "Can't write in this, the more you open it, the more likely the perforation is to activate and you will lose that page!"

if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed.

everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take people—at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.

Finally finished the Hearth Witch's Guide to Magic & Murder. An absolutely beautiful magical murder mystery by my friend @kiricallaghan.com . I highly recommend the book and will, without a doubt, read it again myself. And try the recipes. :)

Except that it wouldn't look like a promoted ad for Advil. It would provide a definitive "Oh, you have a headache? Take fourteen Advil in the next hour!"

There wouldn't be ad text, such as it is. It'd just respond definitively, and be totally wrong and dangerous.

And it's already happening.
“This could look like a user asking how much ibuprofen to take for a headache receiving a promoted ad for Advil in the chatbot’s response. Meanwhile, actual results on correct dosage may be brushed to the side, or buried under a mountain of ad text…”

Finally finished #TheHearthWitchsGuideToMagicAndMurder. While essentially "Sherlock" fanfiction, it is still an engaging, intriguing story that blends the infamous detective with fae lore & magic from various cultures. Good job, @kiricallaghan.com 4.5/5🍵

I am far from an expert but… your red herring should probably not be MORE compelling than the actual mystery. Unless that’s the literal point (ie “Glass Onion).

Doomerism can cause serious brain damage. I'm not joking and it's why I warn people not to fall into the doomer mindset.
Most of all, drop that "we're fucked" mindset. Time to leave that doomerism bullshit behind and focus on doing good.
I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

I am far too amused by this video

“God hates—“

No. There is very little that I know for certain, but what I do know is this: if an all-knowing god/God does exist—that god does not have LESS empathy than I do.
