Looking forward to all the “the pope is woke” posts

ordered what i thought was a WAV from #Lyft and a guy driving a Highlander showed up. he said he could stash my chair in the back but i’d still have to transfer to the backseat. has this happened to other wheelchair users? i cancelled the ride and am now going to be super late to my appointment

A lot of people who have no idea what government actually does for their lives are about to apparently find out real quick.

#ACTUALNEWS Representatives of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency have been working at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, where they have gotten access to key payment and contracting systems, WSJ reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

finally made it to the dinner party on #MAFSAU and I am SCREAMING

Is anybody here watching #MAFSAU and want to discuss? I just started watching (I'm in the US, and have been able to find episodes on YouTube), and I love it. It scratches a relationship reality show itch that used to belong to #90DayFiance.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

Your regular reminder that being funny in alt-text is lovely, sure, but if it is NOT USEFUL TO PEOPLE WHO ARE USING IT FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE than it's useless and trash. If you can't be both funny AND accessible just be accessible. Just describe what's in the image.

This is a 30 Rock bit

Y’all - we are moving! New night at a new venue! Details coming soon… #Chicago #LiveLit #Storytelling

The way Snickers just came down to my office, glanced at the Bondi hearing on my screen, and went right back upstairs reminds me of my late dog Boogie, who would leave the room every time Rudy Giuliani came on tv.

ps: i haven’t really posted anything over on 📕 but i do have an account

Post a woman character you love

this needs another fist for "Filipinos"

It would be great to see more media outlets adopt this style of framing. They probably *think* they are focusing on the impact of congestion pricing on people by talking about the tolls, but the real impact is on the transit riders, and others benefiting from reduced car traffic.

Apparently you can vote once a day, every day, until the period ends. That won't go wrong in any way.

i wrote this last night for my #substack - open.substack.com/pub/jasmined... and yes, that is a picture of my healed residual limb aka the Stump as i refer to it

When the clock strikes midnight on January 1, creative works from 1929 & sound recordings from 1924 will enter the public domain in the US, like: ⚓️ Popeye 🕵️ The Maltese Falcon 📖 The Sound and the Fury 🇮🇹 A Farewell to Arms 🏠️ A Room of One's Own 🙌 Hallelujah 🎺 Bolero and many more! 🧵👇

Facts 📍 'I do think people should be recognized and compensated for labor. But what that compensation looks like in racialized, queer, disabled community has not been money, because that’s not what most of us have,' @drsamischalk.bsky.social in this piece by Tracey Anne Duncan

Note for the upcoming holiday season,,, some of us are on a sobriety journey and mocktails or non-alcoholic beer options make a big difference 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

In these divisive times, it’s heartwarming to see everyone uniting to clown on Drake.

tell drake. i want him to know it was me. i played that shit 837283 times

when i was in the hospital a few weeks ago recovering from surgery, a beloved pal brought me two cans of this stuff and it was the greatest day of my life.

I‘ve begun putting together a starter pack of Chicago’s alternative, independent and community media. We have one of the richest media ecosystems anywhere around! go.bsky.app/Rn9XDbg

I’m sure the right will convince themselves that the McMahons were actually secret moles working to uncover child sex rings.

The new US president confirms he will deny Social Security cards and passports to certain natural-born US citizens that he considers undesirable, a de facto suspension of the Constitution (5th/14th Amendments). www.nytimes.com/2024/11/18/u...

Is there a Tweetdeck-style app for Bluesky yet?

Hello! Newly disabled wheelchair user here in Chicago. I need to be assessed by the Regional Transit Authority to obtain a paratransit permit. Any Chicago wheelchair users here who've done this assessment? Where did it happen? What did you have to do? What was the result?

always nice to start the day off with a pelvic ultrasound fail

Conflicted: I hate New Year's Eve, but I love counting backwards from 10.

Have I been checking my blood glucose ever since I started my first CGM sensor yesterday? Am I a cyborg now? Who do I talk to about starring in a totally unnecessary remake of Metropolis? #bgnow #diabetes #betterlivingthroughscience

Headlines about Maine throwing Trump off the ballot are significantly more normal and less huffy than when Colorado did it, which should be a lesson: the more you do the obviously right thing, the less the press will do its weird song and dance about norms and precedents

Meanwhile if you are Welsh it is the time of year when a skeleton horse might show up at your door and challenge you to a rap battle. If you lose the horse comes into your house and drinks your booze. Happy Christmas from Mari Lwyd!

dog-sitting for Christmas 🐶 🌲

this was THE BEST

There should be a way to do a parent swap at the holidays. My parents are lovely with other people, and I’m sure other people’s parents are similar. Just need some VC funding to pilot this.

I nominate my dog Nimbus the Storm Cloud!

the air force won't see your tweets making fun of them for losing an f-35 and asking the public for help finding it, but your friends who need your help will
