The Republican leaders of North Carolina's state legislature called everyone back to Raleigh to find a way to rig another US House seat for Donald Trump, but not to pass a state budget, or fund our state's Medicaid system.

Do you get it now? 🤡

Seriously considering turning my phone off for a week. My brain just needs a break and I’m afraid it’ll only happen if I physically don’t have access to the internet.

Season 2, episode 9 of Bones, the one where Bones and Hodgins are buried alive, is one of the best episodes of the whole show, in my opinion. It’s one of the few that I’ve never forgotten since the first time I saw it.

My closest friend from study abroad is from Perth, Australia. She’s currently standing in front of City U in Hong Kong where we met 20 years almost to the day and sent me a pic.

Of course, I’m crying.

New Brandi Carlile, new The Format, on top of new Lady Gaga and Hayley Williams. And Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus. AND a new Frou Frou single that sounded so much like Heap’s solo stuff.

It’s been a good year of music, for me!

The Format is dropping a new album in January!?!? And a new single today!? open.spotify.com/track/34OEHE...

@krisis.bsky.social have you listened to Mitch Grassi’s new Messer “Cuts” album yet? It has Imogen Heap vibes, so of course I’m all over it.

Hey new Pope, got a request. Figure out a way with y’all’s God to keep this man alive until Jan 21, 2029. He deserves a state funeral not organized by this administration.

@stegan.bsky.social Coming to you via Fated Mates with a romance history question. I recently read Wolf in Waiting by Rebecca Flanders and was struck by how it’s in *dual* first POV. It’s led me down the rabbit hole of finding the first romance with dual first. Do you happen to know for sure?

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

I've never run a single ChatGPT prompt. Not once, not even to see what it said. I've never generated a single image, either.

And I have no regrets about this. I don't need to do it to know that I don't want to.

Canva flagged one of my historical fiction slides about an upcoming book as “political.”
If you don’t think the political climate is affecting art, you are deluded.
Art has always been political. Creativity is resistance.
When platforms label truth or Black history as risky, we must pay attention.

Who needs to go sleep in tents, spends $1000s, and be with too many people when you can just watch all the Gaga content online that you can get your greedy little paws on? The playing chess with her older self was 🔥🔥🔥

Imogen Heap's "Headlock" is #45 on the Spotify weekly top 50 songs played in the USA. Was it recently featured on a tv show? How are people just now finding her!?

The thing I didn’t know I needed most in the world right now.

You don’t have to give up because people tell you too.

You have everything you need within yourself and the people who believe in you.

@quincemountain.bsky.social you are an amazing human. Thank you so much.

Not me sobbing at @quincemountain.bsky.social finishing the Iditarod on his own. And Pepé making it all the way to Nome, again. Not to mention fans of the team raising over $130K for various charities with Igivarod. Much of the world may be on fire, but it’s stories like these that give me hope.

Amazing — will definitely be requesting! You should too!
Worried that DOGE has your personal data? DOGE has been ordered to comply with FOIA requests. @raskin.house.gov is leading the charge. Fill out a request (below) to see what the space nazi and technobrats have on you. Fight back!💪
