One of the most helpful things you can consistently do for a loved one working their trauma recovery is remind them you're happy to clarify anything or reassure them-- that you understand survivors' need for clarity or certainty isn't a "choice," but an itch they can't ignore.
Please!!!

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

It used to be my favorite season,
but now we’re drowning instead of enjoying it

Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?
Federal workers aren’t furloughed.
Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.
Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.
It puts the politicians jobs on the line.
They get the budget passed.

Reading up on the Horizon Steel Frontiers announcement, and although it's Google Translate's machine translation, it's very clear they're using AI extensively, even in the art department. this makes SF an even harder no for me.

I dont want you to stop asking the question how are you doing to people please genuinely understand that you're going to get a serious answer and you may not LIKE the answer. Be open to being ok with feeling uncomfortable because if you want everyone to reply sunshine and roses it's disingenuous

I am heartbroken to lose yet another person that helped me be the person I am today.
When I was struggling immensely about 4 years ago, Alice Wong commissioned me to make a "Suck It Ableism" pin. I'll never forget her kindness and understanding. And the opportunity to work with her.

Oh I’m devastated to hear this- Alice had been so kind to me helping with people in Gaza and her Crips for eSIMs project helped so many of them be able to tell their stories
I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

![an illustration by Spindle of the character Ottilie, a human with brown orange-ish short hair tied up in a bun. She's wearing a black hairband, a green shirt, and black short shorts (They look greenish here). The pose is of her sitting and waxing her l e g s. Surrounding her is a bowl with the wax, a soft brush, a cloth, and a small oil jar with incense in it.
(some smol lore bit, the wax itself is a mix of honey wax and/or resin, scent herbs and Kul root; a fictional plant, when mixed with the oil of its fruits and "cooked", help soothe and moisturize skin. The incense itself is a bit different from regular incense, it more so is similar to candles, the stick draws in the oil and heats it up [using small runes engraved on the stick] to create the incense. These are usually used for quick makeshift "scented candles" or if you're otti, can't be bothered to buy a candle. The oil itself here is used after hair removal, but bonus use is the nice smell for otti)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pb7gp4lz3cslvw4oha36b4fa/bafkreiaqkjtfn6ow6ofat3kacmb2ae74gbgvekbdjvkgfpplsfponsusnm@jpeg)
