I had a bean + cheese burrito for lunch today.

*cracks fingers, sits upright, sips coffee, cleans glasses, takes deep breath* right how does one write a book

I wish jrr tolkien could do just a little bit of haunting just to fuck up those tech guys who keep naming their shitty companies after his lore

If you can't give up your wizard books, whatever, but don't call yourself an ally. We've been screaming this from the rooftops for years. "I didn't know" doesn't cut it anymore and "separation of art from artist" never did.

"I'm a ravenclaw!" "I'm a hufflepuff!" you're complicit is what you are

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

Impressions of Adolf Hitler from those who met him during the 1930s, from Erik Larson’s gripping book In the Garden of the Beasts. These quotes haunt me when people ask: “How could they not have seen what was coming?” Evil can be charming, convincing, and even wildly popular.

“How can he do this, it’s highly illegal” - yeah, he’s got away with all his crimes in the past though, it shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that he thinks he and his regime are above the law when the law has shown him exactly that.

Something that especially bothers me with the machine generated slop for both writing and art; aside from it being a tool for the aesthetics of fascism, the undermining of my profession (both of them in ways). And just the blatant theft... it's weird how much people want to give up thinking.

owning a small business in 2025…

Draw whatever you want! Play whatever you want! Post whatever you want! Be happy posting and talking about the things you enjoy or love doing, you don't have to post a certain thing just to please people! 🫶

Can confirm.

Steller’s Jay caught my eye #stellersjay #birds #birding #birdphoto

The true cost of canning supplies should be shared often. I own all my own canning supplies and this is an investment. Please be truthful with your following. Deceit and flaunting expensive solutions is not helpful for someone on public assistance, eating from food banks, and making $15 per hour.

It is becoming unbelievably difficult to stay both informed and sane

So has the WH actually formally, legally papered the tariff pause or…are they actually still operational?

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke. It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

This week’s main story is about trans athletes, where the conversation around them is coming from, the nuances around competition and safety, and where it looks like things might be going. Full segment at the link in our bio.

cook yourself a healthy meal. drink some tea. get off your phone & read. learn something new. do your skincare routine. meditate. take a bubble bath. get good sleep for a fresh week ahead

Morning. Six Birds, George Brookshaw.

Many of the people who spent the last 10 years saying “calm down it’ll be fine” suddenly seem to be a little bit panicked.

I want my government to be boring and competent enough so that I don’t have to think about it every goddamn minute.

“i was born in the wrong era” not me. i love reading 100k words of yearning on ao3 and talking to gay people online.

The evangelicals are the same ones who have ALL THE SMOKE IN THE WORLD for the Catholics. But are completely fine buddying up politically with the Mormons, who remixed the Bible to say Jesus was from Missouri or some shit so they could justify the genocide of Native Americans

Writing a novel right now feels like I'm doing it on the deck of the Titanic as a comet is headed to Earth and also I'm covered in fire ants. I'm sure it's fine. Just don't blame me if every fifth paragraph is something like WHAT THE FUCK WHY IS THIS HAPPENING IS ANYBODY EVEN READING THIS OH GOD

Good morning ☀️ Drink water, make some time for yourself, attack the day & most importantly remember that you are enough & you’re doing enough!

Today's Headlines

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

So it seems like Trump and friends spent months trying to engage in calculated, targeted tariffs and finally decided that this involved too much thinking

PRAYING a journalist tricks him today by asking why he put a tariff on Heard and McDonald island. Let him answer. And then tell him it's only populated with penguins.

I don’t do this often and promise not to make a habit of it, but just this once: WE TRIED TO WARN YOU!!!!!

Was explaining to David (11) the tariff stuff and what a tariff is and he was like “you mean like what started the revolutionary war?” And I was like; yes exactly.

You might want to cool it with your "CORY BOOKER FOR PRESIDENT" posts coz his voting record will likely disappoint you. Genuinely, I'm sorry, but it is about time we stopped looking at vibes and moments and stunts as winning strategies.

Cory Booker is on the Senate floor explaining how all of NCIS is being remembered by Gibbs in the distant future

I really want everyone to read this book even, and especially, people who will disagree with its politics intensely. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/777485...

people literally hate everything and gonna judge you regardless so once you’re okay with this fact doing things for yourself cause YOU like it makes life 10x easier

Nightsky reminders - get something to eat - drink a glass of water - take your meds/vitamins - take a deep breathe, and let it out

The cruelty may not necessarily be the point, but the self interest certainly is. And, well
