The Aro Books for Pride bundle reached its goal so quickly. But can we smash it utterly? This bundle has something for everyone! Mine is The Shimmering Prayer of Sûkiurâq, an aro nonbinary magical girl story, meshing my signature cosy fantasy with a heaping of body horror and trauma.

Ah, I love the Leveilleur twins. Alphinaud, and his sister Swords to Plowshares,

So, apparently, the company that owns the Big 4 sewing pattern companies (and Perler fusible beads among other brands) just sold those assets to a liquidation company. Those are the last printers of tissue paper sewing patterns AFAIK. Kind of crazy. craftindustryalliance.org/parent-compa...

If anyone had showed up to my wedding like this I would have been very concerned about potential Midsommar-esque horrors coming my way

Carnivorous plants have evolved over and over again through millions of years. And while some get big, none have ever reached Audrey II size. In my latest for @smithsonianmag.bsky.social, I look into why. 🌱

This is how politicized basic infection control has become. Nurses should wash their hands before and after touching any patient and before performing clean/aseptic procedures. They hammered this into our head in nursing school.

Had revelation today that no one can accuse my writing of being chatGPT because it's full of dyslexic typos that a computer wouldn't make. 😭 The autofill machine is not going to change tenses in the middle of a sentence, or use "it" instead of "is", or bang out horrible misspellings like "whent."

I haven’t been keeping up on the Unbound thing, but anybody involved with crushing authors, not just defrauding them, ought to be required to stay at least thirty yards from a book for the rest of their lives. Any book. I don’t even want them getting near the dictionary. Books are ashamed of them.

I hate that this whole, expanded situation is turning me into a punishment monkey, but people need to be very seriously punished for these abuses.

I’m fully aware my modding opinion is “antiquated” but I stick with the belief it should be done for fun not profit. Letting people express their oc the way they want shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg.

wildfires are raging throughout central canada right now with thousands of people impacted, the majority of which are native communities. this indigenous heritage month if you have anything to spare please consider donating to the canadian red cross for wildfire relief

this made me giggle so hard

If you’re not sure if you might have ME/CFS (say, you haven’t been feeling right since you had a case of Covid), luckily the diagnostic criteria are clear enough they can be summarized in one tweet!

Come celebrate Pride with us with our 2025 Pride Bundle, curated as always by Catherine Lundoff and Melissa Scott! storybundle.com/pride

if the wheels had come off this thing any faster it'd be a Cybertruck

Happy aromantic and asexual pride from Hatsune Miku 💚🤍🩶🖤🩶🤍💜

once again I must tap my own sign

Day off pt.2 #ffxiv

I bet if legendary got $0.10 for every use of the Let them Fight gif from Godzilla v Kong today they’d make more money than they did from the movie.

this is a day for those of us who have spent the last six months terminally online. this is for us and honestly, we deserve it.

LMFAO holy shit it is too

It’s the happiest day of Elon Musk’s life because he finally posted something people actually want to read

No cops at Pride includes the cop in your head who tells you to police other queer people. Learn the difference between being uncomfortable and being harmed. Deal with your discomfort on your own time. Pride is for the community, not just you.

Hi if you write fanfiction or publish novels or make movie podcasts or draw fan art or make jewelry or paint landscapes or make pottery or write poetry or design stationary or make art in literally any way I love you you are so important please never stop creating and sharing your creations

Sometimes you just gotta SAW YOUR FACE AND MIIIIINEEEEEE IN A PICTURE BY OUUUUUR BEEEEEDSIDEEEEEEE and go on with your day

(estinien voice) do you mind if a white boy speaks a little español tonight...

Just wanted to clear the air that @quinnbishop.bsky.social is not me but is in fact, my arch nemesis, and dangerous serial scam organization that has harassed me for years at this point.

THIS. Not just the OG scene in 69, but the 1993 followup — Dr. Clemmons was gay, and 1993 was still AIDS Panic times. Rev. Rogers knew exactly what he was about. Bless both of them.

The Aro Books for Pride is already halfway to its goal !! Money for this is split between authors, and an extra 8% that goes to AUREA, www.aromanticism.org 💚 itch.io/b/3058/aro-b... 🌈📚

I will never understand the objection to masks in healthcare. It’s where the sickest people are, and where the strongest & most treatment resistant bugs thrive. People can’t “just stay home” when they need healthcare, and no one should be forced to choose between care & covid

Pride is Indigenous. Diné And Lipan. Wedding regalia.

OH MY FUCKING GOOOODDDDDDDDD MATSUNO YOU ARE THE ETERNAL GOAT

We found the author of the legendary "falling body" image! Check out this video if you wanna hear us talk about it!

THIS IS HUGE, because I promise you people are calling/emailing to complain. Drown out the hate 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Here’s the thing. You will never get obsessed with something that is Good and Awesome. You can only get obsessed with something that is Kind Of Stupid and Could Be Better Easily
