I cannot stress this enough, and I am tired of saying it: British white people, everything you are seeing in the US is coming here and you cannot watch Eurovision or Great British Bakeoff or sign petitions and think you can stiff-upper-lip or ignore your way out of this.

Aaaand, it's official. Lipodema/lymphadema. Although of course these conditions happen to women so there's been little research on either ( not even a diagnostic test for lipodema), the prognosis is I had it my entire life.

I tormented myself during bodybuilding for nothing.

Whew, chile...

Not my favourite thing: up early as we are taking our elderly cat to the vets, possibly for his final trip. He's 18, my familiar and best mate, but he's been declining for months.

I think he's just...done, really. He's just too stubborn to let go. I relate.

I relate <3.

I keep reading this over and over again - it's going to be studied in law universities for years, it's a masterwork. And he damn well wanted it on record that he said it.

Day 2 of actually properly trying out @bluesky, and I’m actually finding I kind of *like* how quiet it is here. I didn’t expect that, but it makes it feel calm and more safe.

Very low pressure, 2016 internet vibes.
Ok fine. I will try this for one week and see if it can scratch my Twitter-missing itch.

An amazing MN Librarian assembled us a reading list to add to the website so people can do more than donate, they can learn to organize in their communities.

I was very glad to be asked by @vittles.bsky.social to contribute to this weekend’s Six of One - Myanmar Special.

I did so for two main reasons

A recipe a day: the only thing I can do sometimes when I don't know what to do with myself is cook. I've been curious about these pancakes for a while but, being a spoonie, balked at the amount of effort required.

I can say: if you can do it: WORTH IT.

This recipe for Chinese stuffed pancakes was inspired by a Xi'an street stall—a layered, rolled, crispy pancake with spiced pork and cabbage!

Margot Robbie is wearing Mughal queen Nur Jahan's necklace. It was gifted by her husband King Jahangir (r. 1605-1627), Akbar's son. Cartier acquired it (harummmph). Cartier's president later gifted it to Liz Taylor..blah blah.

We need to talk about Trump's golf courses in Aberdeenshire... @scotnational.bsky.social @aberdeengreens.bsky.social
Los Angeles: In the recent Epstein Files release and then immediate cover up, it is mentioned EXPLICITLY in the files that Trump's golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes California is full of the buried bodies of murdered children.

WE NEED TO MOBILIZE TO INVESTIGATE THIS NOW.

The "Is this fascism?" debate is actually great this time because literally anybody who doesn't think masked secret police disappearing people into concentration camps isn't fascistic *are themselves* fascists. Anybody who wants to debate it conveniently labels themselves.
Since we're doing the "fascism" debate again, I have to confess I find it baffling how the "not fascist" argue it can only apply to the specific situations of one historical time period, which is not a standard they would ever apply to any other political label ("socialist," "liberal," whatever.)

Since Trump has golf courses in Scotland, maybe the UK needs to ask some questions right now. @peterstefanovic.bsky.social @bylines.scot

Yes, like everyone else, feel like I'm being pulled in a thousand directions.

I tell myself weekly buying a ticket back to MN will just result in me being arrested within 24 hours, I'm not an asset, I'm a liability rn. Let people do the work.

And I can focus on doing things here.
January 31, 2026 at 1:32 AM
Ok, I really don't love this but...Scotland has Trump golf courses on it.

And maybe we need to discuss this here now, too.
I just made a statement, even though I'm not a constituent, at the Downtown Los Angeles City Council meeting happening right now RE: buried bodies at Trump Golf Course in LA so it at least was captured in the minutes.

FOLKS. WE NEED TO MOBILIZE.
LOS ANGELES, PLEASE SHARE WIDLEY:

At 5pm (NOW) there is a City Council meeting with General Public Comments.

You need to make a statement and talk about the Epstein Files and what the city will do to investigate the Trump golf course.

Missed all the Gen X discourse yesterday, but those of us who are actually in the generation have explained this ad nauseam. We had the ultimate worst bullies and mean kids in our generation growing up, and they were never, EVER checked because adults didn't GAF.

Also, Black Gen X is Democratic.
