We would get letters from folks who were near the end and they would say things like ‘I feel better knowing that Death will come for me on a horse called Binky’ Cue an outpouring of Pratchett tears.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

I have three creatures available at my Etsy shop! A Krampus, a chicken bag, and Bob the moth creature. They're all designed and hand-sewed by me. Each one takes many hours to make.

Some things are beyond your control and you personally are not responsible for saving the world. If you can help one other person, do that. That matters. If all you can do is take care of yourself, do that. That’s enough. If you can’t do that, ask for help. It’s okay to need help.

Omg. I forgot I made these sticker designs. I should print out some more. Maybe one day, I'll have more than just one friend who wants one, haha. (If any comic moots do want one, let me know, it will give me the excuse I need to print and cut more of these xD) #comics #webcomics #manga

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

This film took MASSIVE courage to make "The two-hour film, made over the course of six years" The people who made it knew that they would likely be charged with new crimes for having contraband cell phones Praying for them 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ja...

These two updates appeared on the same day: * An Israeli sniper in a West Bank military watchtower shot a 16 year old Palestinian boy, Adam, and left him to bleed out. * Hamas safely handed over the 21-year old IDF surveillance soldier Agam Berger, looking hale and hearty, to the Red Cross.

Rachel Johnson wanted him buried whilst he was mostly known as a trans ally. Now that same community has turned on him for being a sex predator - now he's just a "cancelled" sex predator and she's a big fan. It's why she stood by her brother and his pals after all these years after all.

Yeah, exactly! I think a lot of people get caught up in the idea that "resistance" is only Molotovs through windows or whatever. No, it's also "losing" paperwork. And playing dumb when questioned. Or calling your rep so often the interns recognize you. Or loudly, publicly shunning bootlickers.

Today's panic attack brought to me by opening Scrivener to find that it reverted to an old version of my novel file: just story notes, no actual writing. 20+ chapters, gone. Fortunately I'd sent all chapters off for beta reading so I got them back without having to dig through flash drives, but 😬
