I would rather set myself on fire than return to work as an air traffic controller while those toadying sycophants and their oligarch master have their sweaty fingers on federal employment.

I want someone else (anyone else would do, but Brandon Lee Mulligan would be great) to re-record all those audiobooks. All. Those. Audiobooks. I don't want to hear his voice.

Guys. I hate to be the one to say this but… …we’re at war with Russia. Still.

Still not actually reading Bluesky, find me on Tumblr, TikTok, or email. I'm posting regularly on TikTok, mostly answering questions about air traffic control, but also ranting about other things. Come find me there! www.tiktok.com/@sigridellis

Still not checking anything on this platform, just firing it up every few weeks to scream into the void. (Now even more void like, because I never check back.) Find me on Tumblr, TikTok, Dreamwidth, and email. EMAIL. Like a fucking old person.

You know, Joe, a country could just ... stop supporting another country. You could just say "no thank you." I mean, it'd be better, Joe, if you supported over half a million refugee CHILDREN, for example, but you don't have to! You could sorta ... ghost. Silently withdraw. Block his number. Y'know?

I am, at least for the moment, answering questions about air traffic control on TikTok. If that's your jam, you can check it out here: www.tiktok.com/@sigridellis

:logs back on to say one thing: I have a lot of anger in me right now, have had for the last few months, and nothing impinges on my facade of calm more than trying to get healthcare from designated health care services and professionals. :logs off again:

Hey, so, Bluesky isn't sparking joy for me right now. Not deleting my account, but am taking a break and notifs are all off. I'm still enjoying Tumblr, Discord, and TikTok. My email is always open.

The Audible pre-order for @tkingfisher.com's "A Sorceress Comes to Call" is up!

I want to start an ad campaign: "Instead of high speed rail we got... Theranos." TAX BILLIONNAIRES "Instead of universal healthcare we got... Juicero." TAX BILLIONNAIRES "Instead of clean tap water we got... NFTs." TAX BILLIONNAIRES

You had me at “exceedingly dry in-jokes for recherché subcultures”

tfw you always choose to be anonymous on fundraisers just in case the fund turns out to be fraud so you can avoid public embarrassment

Take this, it’s dangerous to go alone.

for me, JAWS has become a covid movie, tho it's about many things, and its original themes still resonate. that feeling in your gut when something's fucked. everyone tells you it's fine, and why, and you know they're wrong. and you wait. and then you regret waiting. JAWS is about that feeling.

Breaking news: The United Kingdom’s center-left Labour Party appears to have defeated the center-right Conservative Party in a historic landslide, according to exit polls. Keir Starmer is expected to become the nation’s next prime minister.

JUST IN: Labour heading toward a landslide victory in the UK. This is their return to power, for the first time since 2010. National exit poll, released moments ago, shows them above 400 seats. The ruling conservatives projected at 131, which would be their lowest since WWII.

Oh holy fuck I just realized why I loved the tv show Dollhouse. Fucking self-knowledge!! I identified ENORMOUSLY with the Dolls, because *pretending to think and feel things is my autistic masking.* My then undiagnosed and unknown autistic masking.

I just typed the phrase, "and I was Obi-Wan Kenobi holding her last hope," and while I feel certain I am not the first person to say it, I am proud for thinking of it. If this is the first time you have heard this usage, please take and utter freely.

Madeline Usher (Mike Flanagan's The Fall of the House of Usher) is what happens when Adelle deWitt (Dollhouse (2009-2010 TV series)) is written realistically and not given a weird semi-redemption, discuss.

tfw you notice a half a day later that the thread getting some retweets has a HILARIOUS typo in it. "Y'all" is not the same as "yell."

I used to tell my kids when they were younger, "you can't make it better, but you can definitely make it worse." No, you cannot make this better. The time for those choices is past. But what you choose now CAN make it worse. You can always lose more. What will you choose? What are you gonna DO?

Who can you take in? Who can you shelter? Who can you care for? I'm not saying you have to run an underground railroad. I'm saying times are rough and are going to get rougher, and there is always someone more precarious than you. So who can you help? Aging parent? Extra teen? Friend? A new pet?

Spouse took Tiniest Dog for a walk, went past a construction site. Workers, all ostensibly dudes, spent a moment eyeing each other in the small group telepathy of "is it okay to pet the tiny dog? Will my man-card be revoked? Are we ALL gonna pet the tiny dog?" They did, indeed, pet the tiny dog.
