My exercise app telling me that if I do my workout it'll release endorphins and make me feel happier overall is a pretty bold claim to make in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty five

This! If you can switch from Whole Foods to a different grocery store and buy your books from bookshop.org instead of Amazon, that’s still a big step even if you feel tied to Amazon for other items. If everyone divested 30% that’s more than if a few people divest 100%.

“Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” (2023) is now playing on Netflix. It’s a very good movie. You should watch it if you like to watch good movies.

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

It's Project for Awesome and I'm out of the habit of using Twitter and twitter-like platforms, but know that I love every aspect of it, and if you wish you could do something to make the world a little better right now this is a good way to do it. projectforawesome.com

I know every is rightfully enraged at Jeff Bezos but go to the @washingtonpost.com rn and see all the good work. It is but a tiny fraction of a penny to him, but your support can save their good work. Cancel Prime instead.

Happy Valentine’s Day, a commercialized holiday that has spawned additional commercial holidays (Galentine’s) while forgetting OG St V was beheaded for defying the state. Let’s revel in this game of 18th century Tinder, shall we? Thread of explanation (originally posted elsewhere) is linked below.

Ok, I'm tired of answering the same questions on repeat. The Economic Blackout called for this coming February 28th, from 12am to 11:59pm, is being organized by the Peoples Union USA. These actions are just a start. So, if you want to go purity test, do it somewhere else. jointhepeoplesunion.com

ASL interpreters who work in the arts (concerts, opera, theatre, etc) deserve to be valued as artists too. it takes so much skill to be this good at capturing the FEEL of music beyond just translating the meaning of the text and it’s an invaluable accessibility service

The “forty acres & a mule” reference to reparations & redistribution is as clear as it gets. The kind of radical critique & vision we desperately need right now.

Interestingly, in Loper Bright vs Raimondo, the conservative majority on SCOTUS ruled just last year that the judiciary can in fact overrule regulatory decisions made by the executive branch especially when those decisions are not specified by Congress.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

I have been traveling for basically all of the presidency so far, and trying to be responsible and catch up on the news is overwhelming. That's the strategy they came in with. We knew it would be. And it's working. Protect yourself and your mind. Try not to only engage with the stuff that's scary

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Ok #booksky, let’s talk. 👎🏼Goodreads, owned by Amazon, fuels its monopoly on books. 👍🏼StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform, offers an ethical, ad-free alternative with mood-based recommendations, user control over data, and a focus on inclusivity. Support diversity over corporate power!

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.

Kyle is a dear friend and colleague—if you’ve enjoyed any Critical Role content these last several years, chances are that Kyle had a hand (or two big beefy shoulders 💪💪) in making everything happen behind the scenes. Let’s give him and his sweet cats a big Critter hug. <3

If you’re wondering, Trump is sitting next to Obama, obscured by the pillar on the right. You love to (not) see it.
