This thread is glorious.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution.

For no particular reason, I'm going to repost this video: youtu.be/w0KC3Fh7I9I?...

Those are Nazi salutes. They're Nazis.

Michele’s art is marvelous, please support her!!

Today is Friday, and all I do is doom scroll and feel depressed about the state of things, so here is some art. If you’re in Tucson and attending TAPS this weekend, you’ll see some of my #SpaceArt, including DUST OF OSIRIS!

I wrote this for me, and also maybe for you? I hope it helps: 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/feel...

No, the mail is not “the least of our worries.” It’s a fucking important worry. It is the only postal service that delivers to every address. They are only provider of complete mail services for overseas military bases and provide free overseas PO boxes. They help prepare passport apps. Ship meds…

He's gonna fuck up every single independent creator who depends on the mail for their business. Call your reps and tell them you didn't vote for Trump to destroy your business. reps.fyi

Trump can fuck all the way off. He doesn’t get to rewrite history. “Take these seeds and put them in your pockets, so at least sunflowers [Ukrainian national flower] will grow when you all lie down here.” — Ukrainian Woman to Russian soldiers. Russia invaded Ukraine, February 24, 2022.

this was an *exquisite* read

Huh. Was that the first time I’ve publicly called a spade a spade? 🤔 Ten years since my divorce (almost) and nine years since I had the cheating confirmed. Weird. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I don’t give two shits about either of them, tbh—I met my wonderful husband in 2000 and my life is immeasurably better for it.

I’m reading Chapter 9, and it so accurately recounts my first marriage—the manipulation and gaslighting by my “godly” husband*, the guilt suffocating me, my struggles to fit into the godly wife role—I seriously want to vomit. 🤢 *Meanwhile he was cheating on me with my former bff. They got married.

Writers and artists: reply with a link to one of your works. And feel free to tell us about it. Everyone: let's check through the replies and buy some creations and support some creators.

Executive Orders are not laws. They are not legally binding. They are a way for a President to signal their interpretation of actual laws. And if they're not blatantly unconstitutional, they can have some force in the executive branch. They cannot take over the legislative or judicial powers.

Comments being taken until March 17, 20, and 20 respectively. CIS people, now is your time to step forward and say something.

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Today is Wednesday. My brain is not braining well. So here is a piece of art, sort of a weird inky piece I did for Soft Star Magazine a while back. (Possibly mirrors how I feel today, lost in a swirling abyss…) #SpaceArt #InkDrawing #InkyGoodness
