I am me and that's the best I'll ever be.
Yes, I am totally building a roleplay plot loosely inspired by the song Paranormal Helpdesk by @pdxbroadsides.bsky.social and my friends are excited about playing it out. I love it when my weird brain threads are well received. You should listen to the song, it is worth it.

An update on the TikTok situation from our monitoring on Reddit. Now you get TOS'ed for saying negative comments about meta and Zuckerberg, left-wing politics get flagged as misinformation, and you can't tag #fucktrump #fuckelon or #fuckmeta but you CAN tag #fuckbiden and #fuckkamala

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

As I process the loss of a friend, I want to remind all of you that I love you. I would rather hear about your struggles than hear that you have passed. I know a lot of resources and if I cannot help, I might know someone who can. Hug your loved ones today. Tell people you love them. Make it normal.

Gotta love getting shamed for leaving meta. They assumed that I was only leaving because of differing opinions…they did not get it. It’s not just the loss of fact checking, that was just the last straw. Oh and the use of AI profiles. So many things to hate, so little time.

I have had my new wheelchair in the house for just over 2 weeks now. It’s definitely an adjustment period, but it is promising. I have a date set for my first outing in it and I’m excited!

General reminder that Squishmallow is owned by a company who support Zionist charities.

Don't buy that shit.
Alternatives to Squishmallow
So as many of you have probably already heard, Jazwares, the company that produces Squishmallows, is donating to charities that support Israeli soldiers and the IDF. They’re also supporting Canary Mi…

For those that don’t know, my mobility issues have been rough. I rented a scooter for my last Kumoricon and it was a game changer. I just got official word that I’m getting a foldable motorized wheelchair that is rated for my weight and will be mine forever. I am so excited to get out more!!

I can’t remember a movie making me ugly cry since I was much younger and watching Homeward Bound for the first time.

Jiji is twice Luna’s size and decided to sit on top of her in the cat bed. This is a regular occurrence. Yes, Luna is still breathing, we check every time.

At this point there's really nothing new to say.

We've been doing this for years, it's aggressively clear. She's the world's most prominent transphobe. Engaging in Harry Potter as a franchise supports her. She has explicitly said that she views that support as approval of her views.
“J.K. Rowling has a right to express her personal views. We will remain focused on the development of the new series, which will only benefit from her involvement."

She does. But those views are harming trans people, and JK Rowling should face consequences for that.

HBO Says ‘Harry Potter’ Series Will ‘Benefit’ From J.K. Rowling’s Involvement: She ‘Has the Right to Express Her Personal Views’
HBO supports J.K. Rowling's involvement with the new "Harry Potter" show as the core fanbase grapples with Rowling’s controversial views on trans identity.

I suck at doing the “post one a day for x days” because of my ADHD, so instead of doing that, I’m just posting my full list of books that have influenced my life. It will be broken up into multiple bloops due to the length. So, in no particular order:
1. The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde

I’m so unfamiliar with seeing content that I care about that Bsky is almost overwhelming with content. I love seeing stuff from MY people. (And yes now I know and love that there is alt text and will start using it going forward.)

If you're seeing encouragement/demands to do alt text and you're overwhelmed or confused about how to do it and you're worried you're going to do it wrong...

this thread is for you.

First: prompt questions to get you started.
Alt text prompt Qs:

What would someone who can't see the image need to know about it in order to take part in the conversation? What is it about this image that made you choose it? What are the important details someone who could see the image would take away from it?

(Not for images of text.)

I think it best that my first posts introduce my pets. This first post is Jiji and Luna. Jiji is the larger house panther and Luna is the precious baby with the collar.
