#LosAngeles use all your resources 😁 #Paramount #HomeDepot #Inglewood #Compton

Guns and chemical weapons aimed at US citizens in peaceful American neighborhoods. The sounds are like a war zone with explosions and gunfire. Which neighborhood is next, yours or mine? Be brave, stand together! Call your representative. Demand this stops. "Warning shots" #ICE #Raids #Paramount

Do not back down! Ramp up! What’s happening in L.A. needs to be happening everywhere! Do not listen to people trying to discourage you with threats of Martial Law - they are going to do that anyway! You should have been preparing for that for months! #3E

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

It's extraordinary how brutal police are willing to be, the lengths to which they are willing to go, the internal solidarity they are willing to show, in order to deliver to U.S. citizens—the protection of whom is their ostensible jobs—the clear message, "we are at war with you."

A huge reason any of these bad things are happening is that people were permitted to get away with obvious and public crimes with no consequences.

People trying to protect their neighbors are not the problem. The fact that some of you are thinking that way reflects a level of psychological capture & submission to fascism that you should interrogate. If they want an "excuse" to do something, they'll create one. The good guys aren't the problem.

If only there was a piece of media about people using technological advancement for financial benefit despite the risks to workers

My body is physically feeling better overall, but my coughing and sinuses are worse 🙃 wtf is this illness My partner now has it too ;o; nuuu

Here we have a senior golden living their best life and a young golden just trying to make it to the end of their shift. Both 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

I'm going to extend this sale to be all month! BUT mailing things out might get delayed here & there as we prep and pack things for storage before our move. (Our lease ends before our new one begins 😭) I'm stuffing in freebies to help lighten our load where I can. Might do a giveaway soon too lol

“Ai voices are so much cheaper than hiring voice actors” Yes, things certainly are cheaper when you steal them.

If I could give young men one piece of advice, it would be to have platonic female friends with whom you have zero romantic interest. They are the ones who will keep you in check and tell you "dude, what are you doing?"

A fairytale in Tuscany. Fun fact: Taken with my smartphone

people will just admit to anything

HRT was originally invented for cis people. Primarily for cis women for hormones during menopause. But cis men also take hormones for a variety of reasons. Even if you hate trans people, which you should ask yourself why, these bans will impact you. Maybe it's time to open your eyes & pay attention

also give money to Emily Gwen, designer of the lesbian flag, in whatever way you can because she intentionally makes the flag design free-to-use but struggles financially while big corporations slap her work on cheap garbage and make millions emilygwen.carrd.co

Finally feeling a bit better today. Hopefully it's completely gone by tomorrow ;o;

it never ends

man, even when you buy an election, you’re really just renting it these days. worse than photoshop

Really thought I would start to feel better today but somehow I am worse. Body, why?

YES! And don't feel limited to books too! Etsy? Ebay? The creator's website? Reviews can make SUCH a HUGE difference for creators and their businesses. ✨ Even better if you copy/paste your review to multiple places! What have you bought recently that you could leave 5 stars on? 👀

If you are in deep with medical debt, go deeper Get another illness if you have to.

Fucking spineless Rainbow Capitalism strikes again. This fucking apology from the BarkBox CEO is worth exactly nothing. I don’t buy their overpriced crap anyway. But you can bet your ass I never will now. Fuck #BarkBox and #HappyPride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ www.businessinsider.com/barkbox-ceo-...

Mystery pack ~SPOILERS~ ✨ I realize not everyone likes a tease, so for whoever buys the 'Biggest' mystery pack, here's what you'll get! ko-fi.com/s/37da129080 TWO originals, one crochet mesh bag, a shit ton of prints, fancy junk journal goodies, one big sticker, and a bonus little mystery baggie!*

Hello! I am a public librarian. PLEASE do this. Library administrative offices are the exact damn same as any other corporate office: they live and die by written customer feedback. Tell them with your words that Pride matters to you. Please. *Please.*

AI feeding itself information from increasingly AI-crammed internet slop? who could’ve seen this coming

Any #Japanese learners wanting an approachable, very N4 friendly manga, I recommend this one :) Almost no slang, no dialects, short sentences, etc. Also super cute! Full review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... #langsky #日本語

Hall of famer for accidental ally because hell yes I'll watch the lesbian reimagening of Zelda

English is way harsher on repetition than Japanese, so part of a light novel translator's job is tweaking the wording so it says the same shit, but without sounding redundant. I thought I'd do a rundown of a few tricks that help with this.

Currently my favorite distraction on TikTok is this man who is CLEARLY in like, THE BEST shape, finding things that other athletes can do (and often the things they're doing are typically femme) and seeing if he also can do that With the "assistance" of the best dog named Dootie I love this

i don't think there's a more self defeating anti-piracy system than streaming sites that don't let you take screenshots. i am trying to talk about your product on social media! for free! and you're making that logistically difficult just in case i'm dedicated enough to do it 30 times a second!
