"Pronouns used to be a funny joke, Hank. Until the government tried to tell me I couldn't use them anymore. So now I'm adamant about making sure trans people are gendered right. Not for their sake. But because I'll be damned if the US government is going to tell me what words I can and can't use."

good morning

I am not liking how bad the air is right now.

Welp, my most recent relationship ended. It was amicable and consensual. I'm not going to go into any more detail than that. I learned a lot about what I want from a relationship so I'm satisfied. It's actually really nice how mature this experience was.

Happy #OwlAwarenessDay! 🦉 Shredding coconuts is one of 21-year-old Eurasian eagle owl Forrest’s favorite enrichment activities behind the scenes, and he wants you to know about it. As one of the largest owl species in the world, Eurasian eagle owls are very impressive!

i started reading Hunter x Hunter again, which drove me to digging out the 160+ doodles I did during the first time i watched the anime now in a google drive with 0 context for your enjoyment (i recommend viewing them "date modified: old -> new"): drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Now I'm thinking of a CK3 like game about playing as a musician, starting as a teen. Lots of interpersonal drama and all that fun stuff. That could be sick as hell

Do you think there's a band that started as a highschool punk band but had all its members changed out over the course of the years so that even 30 years later it's still a highschool punk band? Do you think they're still playing the same songs?

A thing in Sci-fi I always appreciate but feel like I don't see too frequently is when people have mundane issues with the advanced magic technology. It always helps to ground things a bit.

“Frog!” cried Toad. “I am sorry for all the dumb things I do. I am sorry for all the silly things that I say. Please be my friend again!”

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

My friend @lexluddy.xyz is struggling right now with the death of her dad. She could use all the hugs you have to spare. 💕🫂 Her dad's request was that folks donate to Médecins Sans Frontières' continued vital work in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Egypt She'd really appreciate both. 🩷

A few people have wanted to know how this works: the mechanism is pretty simple. The site checks if your browser says it's coming from one of these sites. If so, you get the "AI loser" page. The link on the page strips out the "utm_source" parameter and referrer, so you only see it once.

Hrmm. Digital Devil SaGa... Is that anything?

how it feels to talk to the zoomers on bsky

idk i just think it's curious that if a cis person wants to clear their name and say they're a good ally they can get articles singing their praises after they did a fuckywucky, but god forbid a trans person have one kinda shitty day and say something mildly rude
