Because of @catkimbriel.bsky.social, here are 10 US Kindle copies of Terry Pratchett's Carpe Jugulum, the Discworld book that teaches you how to deal with fascists. And would-be rapists. (Spoiler: they're both remarkably similar.)

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

Democrats Need to Treat the Supreme Court Like the Villain It Is
The Court is out of control, and we'll never see reform unless we build the case for it. Starting now.

I didn't wind up shipping extra plush due to Pig's sudden passing, so hurry over if you want a Purrmaid!
But I hopefully have plenty of pins, stickers, and prints!

I used to think the CDC being an evil organization was far-fetched in the future-zombie series by Mira Grant ( @seananmcguire.bsky.social ).
After today's CDC Panel announcement, I no longer think it's that far-fetched.

Kennedy's zombie ACIP panel just voted to restrict hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Experts say it will harm children for no reason. www.ms.now/news/rfk-cdc...
ACIP member Dr. Cody Meissner:
"'Do no harm' is a moral imperative. We are doing harm by changing this wording. And I vote no."

To say this for the 50th time, for anyone who doesn't know:
Three young conservative lawyers were part of the GOP "Florida recount" team that led to GWB becoming president, via Bush-v-Gore.
They were: John Roberts. Brett Kavanaugh. Amy Coney Barrett.
Small world.

"Hell, it has been suggested, is other people.
This has always come as a bit of a surprise to many demons, who had always thought that hell was sticking sharp things into people and pushing them into lakes of blood and so on."

Day five of the #HooklandChristmasTree decoration and the Star Wraith haunts a branch. The hooded figurine, face and body made from constellations of enamelled stars, seems to float more than dangle. Oddly, the stars seem to have shifted position each time you look closely at it.

So I'm not as much of an expert on Kirk as some people (in particular, my sister, who has actually watched all of TOS and has Strong Thoughts about it lol), but
I would say less that it's "duty" that restrains him from settling down than that his actual true love is the goddamn ship
