Guys, I’m gonna be real here: things are Very Bad for me right now. I have to move house twice this year, which I can’t save for because I can’t afford where I live. I have one month. I’m desperate. Fighting hopelessness feels impossible. (more in thread) 💜 ko-fi.com/grapeyguts 💜

Fun fact about car touchscreens: theyre not in more and more cars cause theyre better or anything. Its cause theyre way cheaper than physical buttons and dials. Its a costcutting measure at the expense of safety and quality of use. They suck

If you can, make noise in Iowa. The Republicans there are aiming to become the first in modern history to remove civil rights protections. They're trying to strip gender identity protections that have been in place for nearly 18 years. apnews.com/article/iowa...

I’ve been using this mentality. It’s also easier to bring people to your side when you’re welcoming those trying their best and not demand perfection. Sometimes you can and should be strict with your choices (often it does take effort/discomfort), but if you can’t, any harm reduction still helps.

Exactly why I've been writing, podcasting, and damn near screaming about using the right language. The mainstream media is failing us SO badly right now. Stop. Calling. This. Shit. DEI. This is (re)segregation. This is racial purging. Cleansing Black people from positions of power.

Don't be gaslit: They are Nazis. This is a Nazi salute. They are not hiding it, or dog whistling, they are announcing it. They have come out as Nazis. Show the people in your life these images all together. Make them understand this is not an accident, or a fluke. It is happening here.

okay but every fucking company that dropped anything remotely "DEI" so fast without any actual impetus to do so, preemptively for laws that were never going to be upheld because they weren't constitutional, needs to be fucking dragged into the street and stomped on forever

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.
