Rain flooded our home, and my young, sick children cannot bear this freezing cold.
I am helpless to protect them alone.
Any support, big or small, can save their lives and give them warmth and safety.❤️🩹

the reason people still want to go indie and put themselves at tremendous risk is not wanting to put up with this kind of shit anymore. it's completely insane and completely humiliating how normal it is for companies like this to put people through all kinds of weird torture to prove their worth
3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

May my friend @sfdirewolf.bsky.social rest in power. I will especially miss texting with her about Star Trek.

Yes I notice when someone didn’t bring up disability at all when they were arguing for their bad technology idea but then bring it up when all the other arguments aren’t working
Disabled people aren’t a vehicle for scoring rhetorical points 🙃

This is one of those things I rarely talk about, and I’m going to disable comments. Im not looking for empathetic statements or consoling words.
As a survivor, I’m really upset and pissed off. I’m not utilizing my core competencies of burning all this motherfucker down, as they used to say.

The Republican Party is NOT involved in the largest child trafficking or sex trafficking rings. Y’all are willfully ignoring what churches, national governments, and various “charitable orgs” have been doing. Epstein didn’t even get close to the biggest or most notorious or the most damaging.

Calling the police is far too often a death sentence for people who are or are perceived to be experiencing a mental health crisis.
Do not call the cops.

Don't call the cops on someone in a mental health crisis unless you want them dead.
Three former San Antonio police officers were acquitted on Monday of all charges related to the fatal shooting of a woman who appeared to be having a mental health crisis when they were dispatched to her apartment in 2023. nyti.ms/4qRnvvT

All the outages lately I'd bet is because they laid off the furry in charge of some DNS function and replaced with an AI that can't even tell you the finer details of why strapons and thigh high socks are mandatory for fixing the DNS

I may have bought the Baja Blast knockoff creatine despite not having a job yet just because it was 70% off, and I’m almost out of my regular. (I take it for brain issues.)

This might be the worst champurrado I’ve ever made. Tastes great, but it feels gritty. Let’s hope overnight in the crockpot fixes the texture.

Instead of ai art, you could work with an artist to create something you feel passionate about and pay them…. Weird idea, I know, but logical.

I haven’t been able to watch #Murderbot but after reading “Rapport: Friendship, Solidarity, Communion, Empathy” I really hope season 1 closed out playing “Take a Chance on Me” by ABBA.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!
