Pat Robertson is dead.

No eulogy. Just a reminder that his vitriol stoked hatred in the hearts of millions.

Abortion is permitted in Judaism, & it's required if the wellbeing of the pregnant person is at risk.

Medication abortion isn’t new, even if it’s taken different forms over the centuries.

Access saves lives. It preserves dignity. It honors agency. Access is the path to justice.

This is also my policy. I was merciful on twitter and I am Tired and Old now.
Also FYI, my blocking policy for BlueSky is:

- no strikes
- no warnings
- no hesitation
- no mercy

The first time I see an account be phobic, trollish or sea lion-y, to me or anyone, that's it, out of the pool, I won't even snark at you first, you do not deserve my delicious scorn, just gone, bye.

And don’t use a hose to wash the ash off your car/bike/what have you. Water + ash = lye, and there goes your paint job.
East Coasters and Canadians, take it from a West Coaster who has been dealing with wildfire smoke for years. Those N95 masks you saved are your friends. Wear them when out. If you have a HEPA filter air cleaner, turn it on. (And close the windows).

So I watched Shiny Happy People. As someone married to a survivor of an adjacent segment of the Christian population all I can say is that my rage is incandescent and my opinions are vociferous.

These numbers are rounding errors to Disney & Netflix. It can’t be cost that’s the concern, they simply don’t want to give an inch to the workers providing key value to their business lest it gives other workers ideas.
In an email, the WGA negotiating committee says its proposals would cost an estimated $429M per year, including $75M to Disney, $68M to Netflix, and $47M to WBD (Gene Maddaus/Variety)

Today in Parenting:

I am caring for a child with a middle ear infection and a 7yo going through a "I don't want to mask" phase and I would like a strong drink and a cookie.

Accessibility testing is like grinding to level up in a video game. You do it for hours and hours on end, but you actually do learn new, very specific skills. Like how precisely to format one of these spreadsheets.
