Apparently loads of my work is being sold on that Ali Express, if you're an artist who tries to make a living from your work I suggest you check if your stuff is there too.

Thanks *so* much to whatever asshole didn't bother to mask who gave me and my family a wretched headcold.
Y'all do know there are *a lot* of immunocompromised people out here? Covid kills our immune systems.
Been sicker lately? Welp.
Wearing a mask to protect others is just basic respect.

Wow. Have I been out of the loop about the s4 Witcher drama.
I've been working on awareness of where my energy goes because I have so little of it. So I haven't been paying attention because I walked when Cavill did. I wasn’t really even a fan of Cavill before that role. (I wanted

Think you're not being ableist to disabled people? (General you're)

Today I launched our new clinical text that focuses on affirming autistic clients. To introduce the book, I took time to share my own autistic support needs, how they intersected with writing a book, and I asked why we're still treating disabled people like shit:

🐌 I guess National Snail Day is a good time to share the overwhelming diversity of •pelagic gastropods• we saw in the Gulf of California, Mexico, last month. We used scuba and trawls on the R/V Sally Ride, supported by NSF grants and expertise of Brad Seibel and Amy Maas. 🦑🧪

Autism pseudoscience grifters "claim to offer wellness, but what their products really do is drain health and well-being from the children who are targets of these 'treatments.'”

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high.
SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”.
Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers.
People need & deserve assistance
Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich
Be mad about that

I had POTS before LC. It made it worse. Both kids developed it, too. Partner as well.
They told me my embolism was likely caused by having had Covid more than once. I have to be on blood thinners for life, now.
The side effects suck.

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.
But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.
A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.
