As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Parenting tips learned the hard way. Don't start an activity 25 minutes before you need to get them out the door. If they fall asleep just as they arrive home, let them sleep in the car for 10 minutes before moving them. Christ, today has been a shitshow.

Dolly Parton was universally loved because she was a rich person who knew what it was like to be poor, stayed down to earth, and spent her life giving back to others who were less fortunate. The oligarchs who don’t understand why everyone hates them probably won’t learn from this. But they should

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Toddler, running into my room at 4am: "Daidí, sing Misty Mountains!" Me, blearily with a scratchy throat: "🎶 Far over the Misty Mountains cold 🎶" We did not get back to sleep.

If I can get to Kakariko Village and hunker down there, I'll be fine.

You're offered $250,000,000 but to claim it you must enter the last video game you've played and stay there for a full year. How are y'all faring in this deal?

In the Renaissance people theorized, since the Aeneid is great, if you wrote poems made only of words & phrases from the Aeneid rearranged they should be great too, since a great source regurgitated should yield greatness. They produced NOTHING we still read. Thinking about that a lot lately.

I really like that @hellomcdm.bsky.social are offering softcovers of the Crows RPG rulebooks. They make premium products so it's great to have them at a more accessible price point. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/m...

This is very good advice. One thing I've done is use MacroDroid to automatically open my ebook app every time I unlock my phone.

if you're struggling to get back into reading, here's what has helped me read over 50 books consistently a year: 1. Start small. Novellas are tight & easy to digest. Try Claire Keegan, Becky Chambers, Donal Ryan, Samantha Harvey 2. Childhood books. Full of memory. I loved Artemis Fowl as an adult!

So the new AIB app is a pile of shite, eh?

Funny how racists in Ireland who do be proclaiming knowledge and pride in the pivotal 1916 Rising do be also forgetting that James Connolly, Countess Markievicz, Margaret Skinnider, and Thomas Clarke were migrants, and Padraig Pearse was the son of a migrant...

Someone flew a flag in Eyre Square that was Palestinian on one side and the Progress Pride flag on the other and I love it because it will make the very worst people have absolute aneurysms.

Bluesky needs a fixed tag for "this is explicitly not for the USA", probably blinking in red.

Finally got round to watching season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina and I've got to say I think this was the weakest season in terms of writing. The same pacing issues, characters having the exact same conversation multiple times, and I absolutely hated where they went with Pike.

Good for @freeleagueunbound.bsky.social. I hope this is a success. Some folks are being really obtuse and expecting previous purchases to just show up here. It's a totally different product than a pdf reader. www.freeleagueunbound.com

99% of the time, when someone accuses you of selective outrage, it’s a way of politically demobilizing you and shutting you up “Why are you angry about data centers instead of fast fashion” isn’t about making you care about fast fashion. It’s about shutting you up about data centers And visa versa
