Oh look, it’s another social media platform.
One of my in-laws left a phone or something behind while going for some exercise/sightseeing and it has been ringing nonstop for at least three minutes now.
Augh.

Yes! I want to send some clearing house $100 and they will send my dollar (along with ones from the other hundred people who clicked the heartwarming “pet reunion” or terrible “look, more fascism!” link) to Random City News Herald in a clump to avoid microtransaction fees.

There is no such thing as an accurate translation; all translations are transformations, adaptations, a second art form layered on top of the original text.

That's how you can tell human authors from AI.
AI will put in some em dashes, then apologise and take them out when told off.
Human authors will climb the filing cabinet, hissing, and defend their right to em dashes with a loaded stapler.

Em dashes, like anything, should be used in moderation. Check first with your editor if em dashes are right for you. 😉

It's apt that corporations/governments divided the internet into SFW and NSFW & are now making it all Safe For Work, because that is the defining frame they want to place on the world--everywhere you go is for Work, not pleasure or art or love or culture. You must always Work for Them, or die.

Bill Clinton was the first politician I independently campaigned for (as opposed to tagging along with my parents). At the time, I was too young to vote—but older than many of Epstein’s victims.
Of course I’d push that button.

19 Jul 25 - Dem Rep Seth Moulton, who pandered to the right with bigoted remarks about his daughters having to compete with trans girls, has drawn a iberal primary challenger in his Salem MASS district. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
Representative Seth Moulton draws a primary challenge after criticism over trans athlete remarks - The Boston Globe
Bethany Andres-Beck, a transgender software engineer, said Moulton's comments about trans athletes are “part and parcel of being out of touch with America.”

I don’t know enough about urban planning to know if the proposed changes in my town are a *good* idea, but every racist xenophobic rant against them I see in various spaces, the more I like them.

Ditto bikes, and pedestrian access.
And libraries. And public schools.

There are a lot of reasons the right hates public transit and the big one other then the obvious racism is that the trains give kids autonomy and allow them to figure out who they are in a civic and personal sense outside of parental control
Every time I see conservative fearmongering about how dangerous the NYC subway is, I feel the need to defend it. I grew up in Ohio. It’s cars that are dangerous. It’s car accidents that are terrifyingly common. I’m not being dramatic when I say the subway is one of the best parts of my life now.

do any trans teachers follow me? I’m planning out a piece for back-to-school time, and I think trans folks in the classroom are so underrepresented. If you work in any kind of classroom or school setting (preschool through college, anything) and you’d be willing to chat, lmk!

this is just an observation but one way to think of the civil war is that it WAS about states rights, but the right in question was the right of free states to stay free
