Anybody who is like “Piracy is activism!”—trust me, supporting your local library is about 1000% more effective activism, and it’s still free for you and authors still get paid!

Those who stayed off Facebook and Instagram for a week reported noticeably lower levels of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and negative social comparison. So meta/facebook buried the study.

Nothing new to see here folks. Just tech bros doing their monopoly thing.

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

If you're looking for hand made gifts from a small business for the holiday season, I've got a bunch of stuff for sale on @blackwidowart.bsky.social

You can get something one of a kind for a very good price, and also help me out at the same time.

Because it apparently bears repetition:

You do not make fun of people for things like their weight, height, voice, baldness, ancestry, etc.

Even if they are horrible people. That is not a get out of jail free card.

Pick something else. Preferably in the actions or thoughts zone.

Thanksgiving 🇺🇸 is in 1 week, and I'd love for as many folks as possible to know about this cookbook that uses turkey leftovers & reduces food waste.

The PDF is free; print copies support a food security & sovereignty charity.

Please tell your food people! 🙏

Did you know you can read over 300 stories about trans dudes in gay situations? Sometimes horny and sometimes just romantic? Well, you can and you should! This collection is a treasure trove of stuff and too many stories here are neglected.

Go find something new to love!

Today's #goodnews is about Boston nonprofit that runs a 10-week class teaching teens how to care for & fix bikes. Once they graduate, they get to keep the bike.

About 200 teens work in the shop repairing bikes every year. They ship them all over the country & even set up in other countries. ☺️
Teens at this Boston bike shop have refurbished 80,000 bikes for people in need
