Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

Just finished the first season of True Detective. Phenomenal. There's a through-line that parallels an episode in The Orville that I have in my backlog that I edit from time to time. I'm being vague because I think it's super interesting media meta commentary that I haven't seen before. What a show!

@safety.bsky.app @dylkill.bsky.social 's account has been compromised. They are claiming to have their crypto wallet stolen from someone posing as me, and connected me with a discord account blueskyassist posing as Blue Sky support.

I hope you all read this from me.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.

However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.

I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.

When someone explains something to me in the wild, I freeze to remind myself to honor their journey in life.

And I find a clip that gives me hope.

Ziff Davis and IGN routinely decide that work done by our laid off colleagues is not important. But inevitably, that crucial work falls onto those who remain.

Not this time. Not anymore.

This coffee shop in #Kyiv is being rebuilt for the sixth time after Russian attacks.

The barista says it's important for her to keep going because the coffee shop feels like a symbol of resilience.

It amazes me how strong Ukrainians are.

I'm just an cishet, male, ally and I've gotta say that if you're a TERF, you are neither radical nor a feminist. You're a Traditionalist Eugenicist Ridiculous Fuckwit. You cannot co-opt Feminism the same way Nazis stole Socialist when they were "just" brownshirts, you skull-measuring dumb fucks.

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better
