UNIANIMOUSLY!!!

I got a horror movie night w one bitch tomorrow, and I got a horror movie night w a whole other bitch the next night, and I’m drowning in horror movies and cool horror bitches, and this is all I’ve ever wanted in life.

We need to tread eugenics with the seriousness we treat the most vile forms of bigotry because eugenics is what turns those bigotries into action items.

My hard work that earned me a Bram Stoker Award in 2023 is being used to train AI on LibGen without my permission. The anthology I co-edited (a Bram Stoker finalist) is on there too. I hate it.

All of this.

Happiest book release day to @sgj.bsky.social . THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER is one of his best, and that’s saying something (I’ve read over 30 of his books)

BREAKING: A court overturned Ohio's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth. This is a critical victory for trans rights.

Ayyyye, now it’s a party 🥂 welcome.

It’s worth saying that book sales are down across the board so far in 2025. If you love authors, buy their books and celebrate them loudly online. We really need it.

The government is about to give OpenAI the ability to legally steal if we do not flood this page in the next 12 hours. OpenAI will have immunity from all lawsuits regarding copyright infringement. All other AI companies will follow. Do you despise AI? Dissent, retweet. Do something. #furry #art

The tv historians are already writing the alien essays about it.

Bad news--pending remote job kept me on the hook for over 3 weeks, then shot me down. Good news--next Girl's Night is carved in stone, AND, I just found out my cousin (one of very few family members I'm still close to) is coming to town in June. Takin the good and bad, I guess.

I go on Max to catch up on Last Week Tonight and it's like "you may also like Reactionary Sewage with Bill Maher" and I'm frantically searching for a thumbs down button that isn't there

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

I was seeing all this raving about OpenAI’s short story (which was about grief) and rather than reading people’s take on the story, I went right to the story itself to read it. Why not? I was certainly interested and the topic is sensitive to me. My response (screenshot from Twitter):

thered be calls for impeachment if a dem did this

How am I supposed to make money if I can’t steal stuff arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Today is the saddest anniversary ever March, 13, 2020 I came home from work and I never went back. I'm starting my 6th year of isolation today. Nobody in power will make that situation any better any time soon.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO

Everything is going to keep inflating unless a cooperative federal govt. legislates rent / mortgage caps. My rent / utilities doubled from 2016 to 2025–my income did not. Corporations can absolutely pay better, but it’s a stretch to think they can double employee incomes company wide. 15 year caps!

"I want to switch over to Bluesky, but I just don't get the kind of engagement I get on Twitter." Wow, you mean your strategy of following 18 people here and showing up once every three weeks to complain about how quiet it is hasn't paid off? Surprising!

International Women’s Day was so fucking lit, btw.

There are good things in the world, too (via one of my brothers).

The window is aghast! #booksky #nerdhumor

It’s actually really fucked up that the boondocks aged so well

I am a ho for Bong Joon-ho and I hope they keep giving this man large amounts of money to make uniquely engrossing movies that remind humans about the dangers of illusive class systems, the preciousness of life, and to stop being idiots in general. #Mickey17

Friends, if you're middle-aged, like me, & can't get your resistance levels/titers checked for Measles/Mumps/Rubella, as long as you don't have underlying concerns with vax side-effects, the health pros I've spoken with don't see any harm in just getting a booster. Took me 10 min at CVS, same-day.

If another film sweeps me off my feet like this in 2025, between now and December, I’ll be stunned. I’m just on cloud 9, it was one of those that felt like it was made for me. #Mickey17

A word from the amazing Margaret Mead, posted for no reason whatsoever…

A 40-day Target boycott starts today. It couldn’t come at a worse time for the company www.cnn.com/2025/03/05/b...

We’ll see the Trump administration in court.

@unicornplushy.fairy.blue @bloodandsmoke.bsky.social teen vogue is throwing slander on us 😭🤣

I feel like whoever named hippopotamuses was doing too much.

Locked in for #TheMonkey that flash has me lookin high 😂

Deadlines are crushing me. I'm bleeding words from my mouth. ❤️

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

2025 vibes at the vet
