It’s been awhile since I mentioned that I have a super cool starter pack filled with awesome artists. So, hey, I have a super cool starter pack willed with awesome artists and it’d be super cool if you followed them. ☺️ go.bsky.app/6WQAQna

This is incredibly disturbing. The number of cases in Mississippi alone of Black people who met their deaths in dubious/highly suspicious ways, only for authorities to shrug it off and do a piss poor job if investigating...there are so many names

for a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? Writing Pens. Several colors, several types. Fine tip, gel pen, etc. At least one must be questionable as to whether it writes or not...

for a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? Paint chips. For paint you've painted over at least two paints ago.

I figured any real friend wouldn't be upset by me prioritizing my health. I'm doing my best to communicate with people. But I may miss some messages. So please, be extra kind to me during this time. I just don't always have the energy to socialize.

After hearing from regular readers of ShouldntNeedToBeALawyer.com (and re-evaluating the landscape in mid-2026, and upgrading our security), we’ve dropped any sort of wall - you do not need a Patreon account to read posts. Which, hopefully, makes it easier to share useful info with other folks.

I expect to eventually be banned from this site (this time I did a little bit of press outreach and then suddenly I was unbanned 🙃) so if what I do is helpful to you please signup at ShouldntNeedToBeALawyer.com

Matthew Cortland (they)@matthewcort.land · 3d ago

I don’t trust Bluesky (see, e.g., my recent ban). I don’t trust Meta. I don’t trust X. That’s why we’ve been improving ShouldntNeedToBeALawyer.com (aka patreon.com/mattbc) — it is the best place to find my work. If you sub (there’s a free tier) you can opt to get posts sent directly to your inbox.

Gabriel Hargrave (he/him)@ghargravewrites.bsky.social · 3d ago

I’m still looking to book. My phone is due today, and my rent is overdue because I haven’t gotten any takers yet. I really don’t want to have to rely on the GFM every month. Get in touch with me ASAP if you need an editor.

Gabriel Hargrave (he/him)@ghargravewrites.bsky.social · 3w ago

I'm looking to book clients for the rest of 2026 and the beginning of 2027. I'd love to help bring your book baby to the world, so DM me today to snag a slot!

Looking for an editor? I have openings, and I want to edit your short story, novella, or novel! DM me for more information!

I'm really, really, really tired of public health officials going out of their way to tell us that the dead had "underlying conditions" — a phrase so vague as to be useless in actually informing risk assessment. It's just ableism...

Matthew Cortland (they)@matthewcort.land · 4d ago

Why? "Underlying conditions" offers relief to a reader the coverage presumes is healthy. It works especially well because it is so vague. Without knowing the conditions these two lost souls had, readers can supply whatever medical history would make their deaths feel safely remote. 🧵

The govt has fired *all* the immigration attorneys representing detained children and given a $150 million contract to a 26-employee law firm in Texas with ONE immigration attorney. @theyoungcenter.bsky.social's Child Advocates are now the last line of defense for kids in deportation hearings.

Wanna help? Become a Waymaker! We're running, walking, cycling 20,000 miles in September to raise money to get immigrant kids out of detention and back with family. Someone who kayaks to work is dedicating his miles to Waymakers! A salsa dance class is counting steps! It all counts! #BeAWaymaker

I am aware that a lot of the angry people I deal with are most likely racist. I am aware that people give me FAR less grace and understanding than people who are shades lighter than me. But it doesn't make it any less easy to handle and it feels so unfair. Thanks for reading this far.

🌸Bibi🌸♿@bibiblossoms.bsky.social · 5d ago

I wish people would give feedback about size issues rather than getting angry or upset at me or attacking me as a designer. I do take notes. I wish people would give me more grace and understanding. Especially since I'm a small business owner and still learning. And trying to actively improve.
