If any of you know folks who are still considering buying a Tesla, I put up a site with alternative suggestions for union-made EVs. Rather than solely focusing on taking down Tesla, we can positively reinforce these other alternatives too. www.better-than-tesla.com #TeslaTakedown

Your enemies are counting on you to lose hope. Despair is one of their greatest weapons, for it leads you to stop fighting for yourself. Hold on to hope, no matter how hard it is, and refuse to join your enemy in bringing you down.

My son just learned rotoscoping in his high school video class. He had an assignment to make a short video of "a lightsaber igniting," but decided to go the extra mile. I was happy to help. 😄

"There were over 10k-20k [Black people] that lived in London during the time of Jane Austen. The number has been estimated to be as high as 30k across England, Scotland, & Ireland. With less than 28 dukes during that time period, who were you more likely to run into, a duke, or a person of color?"

I have a new "if I blocked you, it's probably because," and it's this: You're a "blue state" yahoo who is currently making it crystal clear that you actually agree with the MAGA assholes who think only certain people are worthy of life, you just have a different set of people in mind.

I will say, don't punch a nazi if you, like me, don't know how to punch. You may break your knuckles. Instead, use the heel of your palm in an upward motion. The nose is a good target for that.

YESSSS I love what Bob Ross said "talent is pursued interest! Anything you can practice you can do." Love will carry you when nothing else will. That fun is vital.

I've seen a few people mention (one to me) others before and now today that libraries are advocating free stuff/not sales for the author. Libraries don't acquire books by magic. They buy copies with money. It can be hundreds/thousands of sales. People pay taxes to use the library. Nothing is free.

Among the states are South Carolina (yes, a reversal of their current school book ban legislation!), Rhode Island, Arkansas, Tennessee, and many more. If you have been calling when you're opposing a bill, here's an opportunity to call in support.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

Answering some questions: the series covers the first novella "All Systems Red," I'm a consulting producer, and we've been working on it since 2021. (So it seems fast from the timing of the announcements but it has actually taken a million years in me-time.)

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

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.

We have always been here. We have served in the military - see Albert Cashier, who joined the Union Army during the Civil War. There has never been a time without trans people and there never will be.

Lighthouse Mimics (Farimendax carolinae) are pack hunters that evolved from deep-sea fish. When a ship passes by, a lone hunter uses its lighthouse-like lure to trick the crew into redirecting the boat, leading it to crash into shallow rocks. The stranded sailors become the pack's next meal.

With your help, Q became the first openly trans musher in Iditarod history. This year, he's ready to complete the journey. Thank you so much to everyone who's supported the team in different ways! If you're moved to contribute, we are doing some final fundraising for expenses ❤️ #uglydogs

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional. This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on! Huge win for trans people in MT!

If you could use a little brightness in your day, I recommend spending some time with sled dog MUPPY. I’m genuinely obsessed with her. She is an icon. She is a legend. Her legs are 4 inches long.

My biggest argument for UBI is to just think of a world in which our survival needs are no longer locked behind labor. Less people trapped in abusive relationships. Less scamming as people don't need to wheel and deal for money to survive. Think of what we could create together
