I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Got himself arrested on purpose while telling his city council to not put a MAGA plaque on the library because MAGA = Nazis. It worked, producing media coverage. Baller. ✊ www.latimes.com/socal/daily-...

Just reading up on history so I can learn whether “let’s all be reasonable” is usually a winning response to coups

we are depriving generations of kids of the formative experience of stumbling upon some weird horny sci-fi or fantasy book that was absolutely not written for them, which is the kind of thing that makes reading feel exhilarating, like you are unlocking the grownup world’s fun secrets

Whenever anybody claims "rap isn't real music" or similar, I can't help but remember that ppl thought Mozart's operas were too vulgar for the ears of polite ladies, Van Gogh was a hack, and Shakespeare just a commercial playwright. You don't know what history will put a halo around

Saw something this weekend about accepting that authors will write with AI. No. Don’t accept it, don’t forgive them.

I remember thinking a while ago that Millennials/young Gen Xers were in many ways going to be the peak generation for basic, broad tech literacy at least for a while and welp

If you’re a trans artist, please know that your voice is urgent and necessary. Your art is worth something, your perspective is worth something, you are worth something. This is especially true if you’re Black, Brown, Indigenous, Asian, disabled, undocumented, and/or poor. Keep creating.

There are a lot of us who are not well-positioned for street activism (in my case, I can't risk detainment because my youngest still mostly depends on breast milk for calories), and discounting work that can be done on digital space isn't just inaccurate, it's shaming of vulnerable people

In 2026 I’m only voting for Dems who are willing to get arrested for upholding their office and the law. Getting stopped by private security officers who have no authority is clown behavior.

I think what's being done to trans people in this country is a FUCKING SCANDAL. It's absolutely an attempt at eradicating trans people from public life and ALL OF US must refuse this. Everyone. Stop being a loser mealy mouth person. This is bullshit. You should say so in all the places you inhabit.

The most unrealistic thing about cyberpunk is that the characters own their cybernetic implants instead of having to pay a subscription fee to license them.

If you're protesting tomorrow: "I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present." MEMORIZE THAT, because aside from asking if you're free to leave (or providing ID if you're in a stop and ID state), that's the ONLY thing you ever say to cops.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

See now I’m starting to think that these people want a machine to summarize things for them because when a human does it, the human uses words like “no” and “that would hurt people” and “that’s illegal.”

DID YOU KNOW for 25 years Matthew Shepard had no permanent resting place due to concerns his grave would be vandalized Reverend Budde learned of this, she invited the Shepards to inter him inside the Washington National Cathedral. www.matthewshepard.org/matthew-shep... She was and is a real hero.

There’s a caveat to this. Indie authors HEAVILY rely on KU and Amazon to make their books accessible. Some people can’t sell directly and keep stock. Bookstores don’t really or at all have indie books and ESPECIALLY by marginalised people. I wish we would think about this #booksky #blackbooksky

I'm seeing a few reports of this, but I can't confirm this is widespread. I have been told a separate passport office is no longer processing changes, but new apps will go by your BC and renewals by your current info. There's a lot of confusion out there on passports and no real answer yet.

If you're more upset I old the TRUTH about the racism I experience than the fact the racism happened then you will happily see me as the problem to be eliminated than the racism That's what people expressed for the past four years That's the results we got

It’s worth reading between the lines on Johnson’s post. Budde asked for empathy for those deemed other by this administration. Empathy is a “radical ideology.” Empathy is a “political ideology.” Fight fascism. Have empathy.

I grew up visiting Springfield a lot because my grandparents lived nearby. It’s pretty typical for a small city in Ohio, but has some cool shit. It does not not deserve this shit. It’s Haitian immigrants do not deserve this shit.

I feel like a lot of people are trying to find ways to fuck with the current government, but resistance is really, really simple: Just shut up. If you see something this government feels is against the law, no you fucking didn’t. Shut the fuck up.

Instead of introducing pointless "every sperm is sacred legislation," introduce a bill—a Pro-Birth Accountability Act—like Sen. Mia McLeod introduced in S. Carolina in 2019. I call it a "F**k You, Pay Me" bill. If states are going to force people to give birth, then states should pay for it.

I've updated this campaign, but here's the tl;dr: everything is frozen, insurance companies are not my friends, and new meds are spendy. Also, my cat is cute. gofund.me/6bd3f24a

Hey, if you're a journalist working on a Valentine's romance novel think piece, I'll talk to ya! If you want to pay me to write one, even better, but beggars and choosers, etc. Anyways, hit me up!

My god, what a Boomer 1990s take. This person has clearly never farmed with friends in Stardew, or seen the amazing things a server full of Minecrafters can create. They’ve never watched GDQ raise millions for charity. Recognize your myopic ignorance and try again.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people? hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit. Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.
