You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

“Don’t let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.”

Black text on a yellow background - This is Alice's friend Sandy Ho, posting. Per Alice's wishes, this message is being shared at the time of her passing.
Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine I would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin.
We need more stories about us and our culture.
You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.

TW: video showcasing a violent display of force by federal agents

From Charlotte, NC. Seen it shared on a few NC based IG pages. Based on this video, federal agents using the same tactics we’ve seen the last few months in Chicago.

Kneesvember 2025 Day 8

Bagglyn is shown inventing a story with yellow and red stars in a green speech bubble. Grell is next to her looking nervous. Along the bottom of the panel, we have the blue, red, and yellow knights, all in a row. The red knight is laughing and the plumes of his helmet are touching the yellow knight's head. The snail is also there!

"Errr... we are the Queen's historians, sent to record your heroic feats to relay to Her Highness" fabricated Bagglyn.
"Your peasant garb is an uncanny disguise" laughed the red knight, "though I wouldn't have used so much dirt!"
"Ha" said Bagglyn, "Ha ha ha ha."
"I weave them historical tapestryes!" blurted Grell, "all them pretty pictures with nothin' but wee threads!" he continued, winking at Bagglyn.

Apparently they emailed a *lot* of artists this morning. It was $900 for two weeks worth of work. It was Crayola lol

Meg @meganroseruiz.bsky.social · 6d

I am SO TIRED of getting emails from giant companies asking me to do two weeks worth of work for them for like $800. Has this shit gotten worse over the years? Why are these massive corps asking me to work for less than minimum wage? I swear it didn't use to be this bad.
