I might need to bingwatch Hazbeen Hotel. Again.

Republicans in Utah commissioned an investigation into gender-affirming care for trans youth after banning it in 2023. They're now rejecting the findings of that investigation which showed access to care reduced suicides and improved "positive mental health and psychosocial functioning outcomes."

Writing a comic featuring a nonverbal character is forcing me to confront my long-standing discomfort with onomatopoeia

All I'm saying is Boc better be in it reactormag.com/alex-garland...

I think calling Zombie Land Saga a queer anime is stretching wishful projection to "Samus is trans because reasons!" levels, but it's still well worth watching www.them.us/story/queer-...

Ahhh, nothing quite like asking your Boomer parent for advice on something they've been doing for a very long time, like, say, knitting, and you're envisioning a real mother/daughter bonding moment... And they just send you a YouTube link 😑

At the risk of sounding boastful, I'm getting really good at spotting the AI slop in my Spotify discovery feed.

There's a moral here somewhere, I'm sure of it

Yes please, rescue me from VirtualBox it is a travesty in so many ways tech.slashdot.org/story/25/05/...

Just caught a typo for a comic script that ACCIDENTALLY happened to be a SWEAR WORD. I generally have no problem with any sort of curse/swear (there are no bad words, just words used badly, etc), but somehow because the intended recipient is Disney, I feel like it would have been mortifying

Bless the @inquirer.com for giving me a chuckle on a Tuesday morning. The calm reporting of quotes like prosecuting attorney: “It requires some level of intent to defecate on someone’s car on demand. I don’t think you can accidentally do that" is just what I needed www.inquirer.com/news/christi...

🗳 Polls are open 🗳 In Philadelphia, the marquee race is for district attorney, with the Democratic primary likely to determine the city's next top prosecutor. We'll have live updates all day. Follow along 👇

What parent looks at this image and says "ah yes, I too would like my child to be assimilated into total homogeneity like these children!" 😬

I do worry about the long term viability of Firefox, and in the past I considered Brave, even though the crypto aspect felt icky to me. But turns out there's an even BETTER reason to not use Brave—their CEO was pushed out of Mozilla because he hates the gays! www.theverge.com/2014/3/28/55...

My baby made a thing, you should listen 🥰 soundcloud.com/tankgrrrl/se...

Tactical error: getting ready to go to a potluck, made the food I'm bringing, finished getting ready—including doing my nails. Then walked into the kitchen and realized I haven't washed the dishes yet 😑

45 years ago today, Joan Jett released debut album “Bad Reputation.” It was self-titled & self-distributed when it came out, but reissued as “Bad Reputation” the next year by Boardwalk. Read Jett’s MAGNET cover Q&A with @laurajanegrace.bsky.social (Against Me!): magnetmagazine.com/2016/10/25/e...

A fond farewell to Polygon, from the people who worked there aftermath.site/polygon-vox-...

And I feel like you definitely shouldn't smack them if they try to use it

Such a good thread

My local paper @inquirer.com published a well written and well sourced article about intersex folk. Crucially, they interviewed ACTUAL intersex folks for the article, instead of only interviewing "experts" ABOUT them. Imagine that! www.inquirer.com/life/interse...

"There’s now a standard way to tell the rest of this story. I’m supposed to reassure you with an upbeat tale of self-acceptance. Instead I’m going to make things awkward and tell the truth."

To say that something is straight out of a Carl Hiaasen novel is only a slightly less clichéd way of saying that truth, especially in Florida, is stranger than fiction. For @theatlantic.com's June issue, I went to Vero Beach to talk to @carlhiaasen.com himself. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Painfully true: “Mozilla needs Google’s search deal arguably far more more than Google does” www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/05/mozi...

i wish i could set the Spotify app to default to the music tab

Great band, great comedian. I love it when I find out cool people that I appreciate also appreciate each other www.stereogum.com/2306070/watc...

"decidedly unserious 27 minute-long ode to transness" is a perfect description for this album and also very very welcome www.them.us/story/um-jen...

As long as it doesn't get toxic or elitist, I'm very charmed by the optimism of folks who are so deep into Linux that they assume most people know what Linux is news.slashdot.org/story/25/04/...

In my latest post, I talk about Robert F. Kennedy's ignorant remarks about autism, and my own experiences being on the spectrum. ramiungarthewriter.com/2025/04/19/m... #Autism #AutismAwareness

I unironically liked Team Rocket before it was cool to unironically like Team Rocket

My advice to all of my readers: WAIT to send in your passport update right now. As soon as we get class certification, which I will announce to all of my readers, that will be your time to rocket speed submit your passport applications. Right now, you should likely wait.

I love Philly graffiti
