Alright, it was suggested to me that I actually crowdfund the out of pocket cost for the lumbar MRI since my insurance keeps denying the day before the appt even w/ it as an important order. I will have more info in the replies as well. I was honestly hesitant but... ko-fi.com/portaltohades

Yeah... No. If I see anyone with a camera hanging out in or near public bathrooms, we're skipping the dialogue and going straight to the quick time event. At the very least, that camera is about to become a physics equation.

Ameaka Fatima Nkempu, a Johns Hopkins University researcher in public health, was detained by ICE while boarding a domestic flight. She says she is Cameroonian in a Medium article that she authored. As of Thursday morning, the ICE Online Detainee Locator did not list where she was being held.

If you are commissioning an artist, and want a specific pose, don't run to genAI to try and make it for you. Draw a stick person. Stick person poses are beloved among all artists. We can see exactly what you want. Do not fear sending the stick person. The stick person is magical.

Just a reminder. I'm always surprised how many people aren't aware of this. #Libraries

If you're still using Sticker Mule btw, you should not do that

1. On Tuesday and with Trump's backing, Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino won a competitive New York House primary—and likely a seat in Congress—after running on "aggressively detransitioning America." His extreme rhetoric must be a warning to us all.

We did a really interesting story a few years ago about how different whale falls around the ocean might actually create a kind of web that deep-sea species can hop between hakaimagazine.com/news/how-dea...

How Dead Whales Seem to Connect Deep-Sea Life | Hakai Magazine

By sinking a dead whale to the bottom of the ocean and studying what comes to visit, scientists are learning more about how deep-sea ecosystems are related.

Finally, footage from that new whale graveyard. The fact that fossils and fresh carcasses mix together in this spot is bonkers. But of course it makes sense, because the scavengers that live down there also need a steady supply over millions of years. They can't just suddenly adapt to the deep.

I've been a broken record on this for three years and I'll be a broken record for as long as that fucking website exists: X is a viciously racist far-right organising platform that ONLY WORKS because a huge number of centrists, lefties and progressivs cannot stop propping it up

I've been thinking a lot about visible vs invisible skill layers. i.e every craft has outer layers of skills that laypeople can recognise, and inner layers that you need expertise and experience to perceive at all. Could y'all think of examples of visible vs invisible skills in your own discipline?

Can my followers please boost this post? I am trying to prepare for El Niño and managing a life limiting disease. I unfortunately got laid off a few weeks ago, which is devastating as it means I will not receive any of my wages. I have family trafficked in west asia who I have obligation to 🙃

Would deeply appreciate help. I am a disabled trans man from the global south. I am also the only person in my family who currently works. I have a life limiting condition that will end my life if not medicated. My insurance is only 350 usd a year, I dunno what else to do but ask for mutual aid

Those agendas and biases can be anything! Case in point: you think the fruit in the garden of eden was an apple because a guy translating the story into Latin wanted to make a pun.

To our dismay, the artist and author Marjane Satrapi has passed away. As she wrote, ordinary Americans and Iranians have more in common with each other than we do with either of our governments, which have far too much in common with each other. We honor her memory and oppose the war.

They brutalized this man three blocks from our place, just two blocks from South High before the start of the school day. They left his hat on the ground and the smashed up car on the street. My neighbors are trying to locate his people and get his car towed somewhere safe. ICE is still here.

Jason Chavez@jchavezmpls.bsky.social · 2mo ago

This morning, a neighbor was kidnapped by ICE in the Corcoran neighborhood. The individual had his window broken into, and he was snatched from his car. It would be great to get more observers out today and, moving forward, it would help to be more engaged in your local areas from 6AM-8AM. 1/

(Sorry for the repost, I'm actually lower on funds than I thought) Willow's vet bill was over $1000 due to blood work, x-rays and the euthanasia.

I had to say goodbye to Willow, who was with me since Pippin died. To say I'm heartbroken is an understatement. He only just turned 10 this past March. I will need some time. Thank you.

you know how we always say "fake it, til you make it"? I don't think people understood that once you make it, you should stop faking it and you should still be trying to learn for real. I think it's time to retire that advice since everyone gets it very wrong.
