new @teenvogue.com in our Overlooked History series:

in 1995 Rusty Mae Moore and Chelsea Goodwin bought a house together in Park Slope, inspired by the 1970s S.T.A.R. House.

Transy House became a shelter for trans people for 13 years. Sylvia Rivera lived there at the time of her death in 2002.
This Trans Couple Bought a House in the '90s. It Became a Home for Unhoused Youth
Sylvia Rivera was living in Brooklyn's Transy House when she died in 2002.

Amazing: MIT researchers revealed how ChatGPT etc are destroying our brains and booby-trapped the report to expose those who want to use AI to ostensibly summarize the results.

My partner & I were trying to ID a bird we heard while walking and the guy who had stopped his car to let us pass got out and was like "it's a frog, actually. Cope's Gray. I do frog surveys... Sorry" And then got in his car without a word and drove off. Absolute king

The bird tracker on the window is less easy to see this week, sorry, I used blue permanent ink to make it a week long chart mostly because kiddo really wanted to participate. He’s now able to identify a house finch and a cardinal!

@lutimestwo.bsky.social what are the odds of y'all releasing an album of every song alan has created for terrestrials? because sometimes i do just need to scream along to "we're just rats! we're just rats!"

You can book a virtual bra fitting here! beacons.ai/rebeccamott

We'll talk about past issues you've had, what your ideal bra would do, and any other issues or concerns you have. I'll then send you a list of 5-10 bras I think would be best for you, with specific size and fit recommendations.

This little guy started visiting yesterday and i had the hardest time id-ing him because of the beak and I realized this morning he’s a brown headed nuthatch (classic squeaky toy call) with a beak deformity. I love him

yesterday morning we heard our 7th yell "i did it!!! i've been trying to learn and i finally did it!" and my wife went to the living room and asked what he learned and he said "ARMPIT FARTS!" and farted his armpit at her
