We’ve reached the season where I have motivation to do things, and also can’t seem to get anything done with hobbies I’ve had for 20 years and the self doubt is REAL. I know it’s not true, but that inner bully feels very convincing.

Israelis protested the war in Gaza and effectively called a general strike on Sunday (the first day of the work week) so… if we’re keeping track, the king of Jordan is a mossad plant and Israeli citizens are doing more to end the war than *checks notes* the king of the Hashemite kingdom of Jordan

27 years ago, two years after the introduction of effective HIV treatment, the Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco’s lesbian and gay community newspaper, ran ‘No Obits’ as its headline.
It was the first edition not to report an AIDS death in almost 15 years.

@morbidpodcast.bsky.social the David carpenter cases are CHILLING - I spent a lot of time on Mt Tam and at Point Reyes as a college student. Everything in the Bay Area is so much closer together than it feels, but when you’re on the mountain or in the woods it’s eerily desolate

Freddie is always eager to get outside, even though he isn’t allowed. He very much regretted his decision and started hissing and grumbling immediately, because I ruined the outside.

Of all the theoretically indefensible opinions I hold, social media never seems to come for me about fucked up things I ACTUALLY believe.
You can’t shame me, I enjoy lox on chocolate chip bagels and I was the president of my high school’s anime club. We will BOTH die on this hill if I have my way

Given that Brianna Ghey, Nex Benedict, and the unnamed London skating rink victim were all attacked by cis white women, I think we need to come to grips **pretty quickly** that young women are being just as radicalized toward reactionary violence and bigotry as young men.
