Looking for a good dog bed ramp for this boy. One that runs alongside the foot of (or side) of bed for a low incline. Anyone have one they like and recommend? Our boy hurt his leg the other day. He's fine, but he's also getting older and I'd like to avoid him jumping up/down from that height. 😅

Action figure glow-up! This was a mass-produced $10 figure that I repainted from head-to-toe to bring it to "premium collectible" status. I'll be giving this away to a random subscriber on my YouTube channel as I hit the 10k benchmark! You can subscribe at this link!: www.youtube.com/@Ibrahim_M

Bots enroll in Summer session courses, then get dropped for non-payment of fees, leading course sections they were enrolled in to be cancelled out from under the actual students enrolled in them due to low-enrollment. 😡

I don't lean on the door because one time I was using it as a hard surface to sign a greeting card, and halfway through my message the doors opened and whisked it away forever (RIP)

Time to clarify something. When authors say “Unbound haven’t paid me” that makes it sound like Unbound had some money, which they used to buy authors’ writing. Unbound had no money. The authors did: we had raised that money. They were holding it in trust. Unbound stole our money.

I know a lot of editors follow me. Please have a look at Sacha’s book QUEER AS FOLKLORE and consider publishing it. Unbound were famously poor at marketing; with actual push behind it the book could definitely hit bestseller status again in the UK—and maybe the US

There is no such thing as simple, binary "biological sex" Scientists have an ethical duty to speak up about the true complexity of sex and gender Every biologist and professional society staying silent on this is complicent in allowing fascism to commit trans genocide
