I'm a SNAP recipient... for the last month I was tightening my belt, doing my best to eat cheaper and eating less so I'd have a little left over to help get me through when payments were cut. It was all for nothing. Fuck the dems who supported this.
I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

I doubt there's a burn unit in NYC that could fix Cuomo up after that one...

We need to stop pretending that rule of law is an end in and of itself rather than a means. People are the end. Personal autonomy and well-being are the end. Law is an important means to achieve it. Where it does not serve the end, law loses its value and its justification for existing.

Now that I've figured out how to make notifications work for me on this thing, I think I'm going to try to be on here more. I'd love to eventually ditch 𝕏itter once and for also.

Liberals seem to think democracy is about The Process™. It's not. Democracy is “governance by the people”. It's about maximizing social, political, and economic self-determination. If your precious process subverts that, what you have is no longer a democracy.

Oh, hey, after 2 weeks solid of my chronic illness and anxiety leaving me non-functional, I'm actually feeling a little better. I can sort of function, and I'm writing again! I thought this flare was just going to be the rest of my life...

A lot of companies are doing stuff like this and it shouldn't come as any surprise. It's not ideological for a lot of them — it's all about making the most money, appealing to the most potential customers, and not making waves in the current political atmosphere.

Listen @bsky.app your app is lacking one, and only one thing keeping it from being one of my primary social media apps — notifications worth a damn. If you just gave me a few notifications a day when some of my favorites post, I would actually remember to check this app regularly.

1. On day 1 of prefiling, Republicans have filed 32 anti-trans bills in the state of Texas.
The bills target transgender people with bounties, could shut down Pride parades, ban gender marker changes, and force mass-scale chromosome testing.

Since there seems to be a second Exodus from 𝕏itter going on, I'd like to make a singular suggestion to make this platform better — better damn notifications. Because, like, I keep forgetting this platform exists so I don't check it everyday like I do Twatter and Threads.

So... I've been writing the script for what I hope to be a graphic novel called Threads of the New Dawn. It's in the fantasy isekai genre, though it subverts quite a few isekai tropes, as well as being mildly queer.

If you support Hamas and their killing of innocent people, fuck you.
If you support Israel, their apartheid, and their ethnic cleansing, fuck you.
People who support either are cut from the same cloth — they are not my comrades or my allies. Fuck that shit.

Consent is the crux of right and wrong. Not just nominal consent either — valid, empowered consent, pertaining to a given matter to the degree that matter tangibly affects a person.
