James Webb Satellite took a fantastic shot of the Planet Saturn with it's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This is just an Amazing shot that shows the planet and the rings in brilliant detail.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Good morning, please have a nice bug. #invertebrates #BugADay #Bugsky *Rosy Maple Moth in the Pine Barrens

Very slowly reading a book about Alexander von Humboldt and loving him more and more as I go. I already knew he inspired Darwin, was an abolitionist, likely gay, and studied nature. But just learned he introduced human induced climate change as a concept into science back in 1800!

Bro are you ok? Your wizened visage appears forlorn

Luigi Mangione has a website now. "I am overwhelmed by - and grateful for - everyone who has written me to share their stories and express their support. Powerfully, this support has transcended political, racial, and even class divisions..."

Describe yourself using 5 items that are in your bag at any time 1. Chapstick 2. Epilepsy meds 3. Googly eyes to stick on things 4. A book, either nonfiction or horror really 5. Weed I've forgotten existed

My love for you is like a peregrine falcon. One more valentine from a past year.

the issue with this prompt is that any woman who deviates from social norms/standards, or is an intellectual or artist or has opinions will inevitably be called “intimidating.” i’ve been called “intimidating.” which is odd because i’m a 5 foot tall vegetarian bookworm with severe social anxiety.

why cant IM IN LOVE WITH THE HANDSOME MUMMY RACECAR IN MY BUTT be the book that comes true?

Wow if only there had been people who were vocal about the fact that being anti trans will only lead to further abuse of all women and girls, because it creates an ever narrowing idea of who gets to be a "real" girl/woman, but ppl are too caught up in being transphobes to see it Oh. Wait.

Happy National Embroidery Month my friends!

Destabilization of reality in the US is about to reach surreal heights. Protect your mind. Monitor stress levels. Do not doomscroll--it does not help. Be selective about when and how long you expose your brain to this. Do what you can when you can.

Chicago, baby.

I'm not broken, just human. Have been feeling pretty overwhelmed and broken recently. This past week has been a lot. It's been so easy to glaze over that my reactions, my feelings, it doesn't show that I'm broken. It shows how human I am. So easy to forget, but so important to remember.

This by Dan Savage is I think important to keep top of mind. It speaks to the point I made earlier that bad news is never the only news.

This makes the radar face make so much more sense…

I love Chuck, & I think I agree with him here broadly, but I think a lot about how love is a verb, action — not just one action, but all the little actions, choices that accumulate across days, months, years. So often those actions are as easy as breath. But sometimes they need everything we have.

force-femming every single american citizen via EO

anyway looking at social media is not actually staying informed and organizing so i strongly recommend if you're overwhelmed with The News that unless you're right now in a group dm organizing community aid you should just go play balatro instead. this is standing advice for the next few decades

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared of what’s to come, but I do not intend to stop living. I do not intend to stop thriving. And I will jam it down their throats as long as I have breath in my lungs. I love y’all, my siblings. Let us get through this bullshit.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

Above all else, be ferociously and recklessly kind.

We’ll miss you Joe Biden!!

The Scottish Sunday Herald TV guide featured this preview of the Trump inauguration. It’s fucking brilliant.

ik we’re (rightfully) terrified, but that Justin McElroy tweet where he says “I’m going to wake up and continue to do good and no one gets to vote on that” is something I hold close to my chest now and will these next years. Be safe, be vigilant, we’ll make it through. I love you 🖤

Prince Zuko angrily screaming “I don’t need any calming tea!” is peak television

hey. psssst. Whomever invented the whole "prior authorization needed" shit for medications needs to be taken out back and--- [the rest of this message has been redacted as not to scare some pissbaby CEO who is probably more botox than human at this point] *exasperated noises*

Hate that *gestures everywhere* doesn’t end it’s January we’re supposed to be hibernating with brief awakes for potatoes

sometimes you see a headline and you just want to repost it and say "no shit sherlock" no shit sherlock

I am thrilled by the generosity of people donating goods to California. But it also worries me because a lot of places have been overwhelmed with donations this week and people are still going to really need help in a week, a month, a year. Do not feel the need to blow your wad this week!

A reminder as Musk-bots, Trump-bots, and other bots start hitting Bluesky: blocking users removes their replies from your posts entirely. The correct way of handlin antagonizing parties is to block. Not reply. Not dunk. Not mute. Block. It stops their reach and effectiveness right there.

This is so spot-on (and equally applies to misgendering)👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

wait do we know for sure which one zuck was referring to

Also - we don’t Quote-repost for pile ons, that’s for promoting cool posts and projects by other people. Leave that “hey look at this asshole’s post” shit back at the hellsite.
