For those who have followed me over the last 6 years, you know that when the Iditarod rolls around, so does the Igivarod. The Igivarod is a grassroots fundraising miracle that raises money for rural Alaskan schools and other Alaskan causes. You can see them here: bit.ly/igivearod2025 1/

Someone who is watching, please keep a running list of links to donate to every dem who gets dragged out.

Joe Alwyn is actually in things? Huh. #oscars

I definitely share the frustration of, "really? This is the first national day of action that got traction?" At the same time, we do need mass action and think we have to be realistic about where the populace is. I think right now we have to treat this stuff as a "yes, and" moment.

I've seen folks raise objections to this, & many of them are fair. This, alone, will not fix things. But it can do something, and it can be a practice run to help many folks who aren't used to taking action get engaged. I've seen many ppl far outside the usual circles talking about this. I'm in.

Okay fine I’ll watch Reacher I guess

Got some time on your hands? Make this tipline useless. I used to work for CFPB. Do me a solid and make sure to give this man hell

If you are thinking about law school, do it. No, the law makes no sense now and have compassion for your con law profs. But the current generation will go until we drop in harness and we will need people hand off the work to.

The AP must refuse this but more importantly the rest of the White House Correspondents Association should back them. Boycott the press briefings until they relent, and if they refuse, walk out. There is no real use to them in any case. Trump craves attention. Deny him that and he’ll cave.

Carter is reportedly considering a run at Osoff’s seat in Senate.

Weird that my Facebook feed is getting more Temu ads with the tariffs and import fees in effect now. So weird.

If you ever think you might be hating too much… you are not. You cannot hate as much as Kendrick does. The limit does not exist.

Congratulations to Super Bowl LIX champion Kendrick Lamar

That “HE GETS US” ad is funded by an extreme right wing org. Using Johnny Cash’s cover of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus” - a scathing critique of right-wing televangelists preying on the unwary - is a spectacular self-own.

Grimace but pronounced like Versace.

Hey chads Brads and dads are you upset that Kevin Costner was on your screen for a hot second? Paul Rudd?

Oh also GO BIRDS

Thomas cruise your face gets more and more plastic every year.

Wondering how much of The Thing Right Now is that older people fundamentally don't understand the dangers of online trolling and don't see how it intersects with what's going on with Musk and his bros. There is still a very fundamental "Online isn't real life" thing in too many brains.

Hey @karnythia.bsky.social look what I found in the Museum of African American history and culture!

Girl Scout cookies are SIX DOLLARS A BOX. thanks Elon.

Anyone doubting that the puritanical wave has already stated in online book communities. Heads up fellow Aro/Ace folks who complain about having sex and romance in media, these people are not our allies. This is thinly veiled Christofascist CompHet.

I k ow I am not the only one who perceives anyone using the word “genuine” as being not that- they’re not asking a genuine question, they’re not making a genuine compliment. It’s just cover for being an ass.

Looking for small bits of joy where you can find them: Truck Day - forget the large rodents, Truck Day is the first sign of spring on the horizon.

I just left a message for Senator Warner and avoided the use of the word “chucklefucks” which was very big of me.

Freddie Mercury would have loved Chappell Roan SO MUCH.

The fact that the Beatles are nominated for Rock Performance tonight is… ridiculous.

I am an avowed Swiftie, and I am pulling SO HARD for Beyonce tonight. SO HARD.

“nobody saw this coming” = “we considered everyone who saw this coming a nobody”

No. You move.

I'm so tired of it. Neil Gaiman claiming autism. Musk claiming autism. Autism doesn't make you do terrible, terrible things. Stop. Blaming. Autism.

Just drinking an iced coffee without mittens or a hat in DC.

A reminder as Musk-bots, Trump-bots, and other bots start hitting Bluesky: blocking users removes their replies from your posts entirely. The correct way of handlin antagonizing parties is to block. Not reply. Not dunk. Not mute. Block. It stops their reach and effectiveness right there.
