Dear followers, have any of you done the whole tiny home thing? My aunt and uncle have property that my mom and I are trying to get to, but we're stuck on what we should do. We'll have to get a loan for whatever it is or finance through someplace.

She/her I'm a writer, reader, crafter, gamer, and avid Stars/Avs fan. Yes, I love two teams in the same division. I'm a proud aromantic-asexual and a forever work in progress. Disabled. AuDHDer. Humanist. Strive for progress because perfection is a lie.
Wrote and posted some Thunderbirds fic for the first time in way too many years and it feels good. Feels good to post stuff. Feels good to get those kudos and comments.
I would like to thank the hockey gods for not pitting the Stars and Avs against each other in the first round this year.
I hate being in a bad mood when I don't know why I'm in a bad mood. How can I fix it if there doesn't seem to be a source?
Anyone who follows me built or know someone who has built a quonset hut home?
This is so fucking disturbing. I hope we're able to get justice for the people who have suffered this.
Spencer Ackerman@attackerman.bsky.social · 8mo agoThey're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
The corruption is sickening, and right out in the open. I thought I had seen it all in some sense in the 15 years I handled corporate fraud cases. Nope. Staggering what this administration is doing. Just straight bribery (impeachable offense), corruption and grifting. All of us suffer for it.
Rep. Adelita Grijalva was pepper-sprayed by ICE agents during a raid last week. Remember: ICE is getting $170B in new funding from Trump's Big Ugly Bill and lowering its hiring standards. If Trump's thugs can do this to a member of Congress, they can do it to you.
The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.
If you're in MO-7 please check out Missi Hesketh. Last I knew she's the only hope we have for a Dem (or any option) other than Burlison and I don't want that bootlicker getting elected again.
Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"
Disabled people do not owe you their medical history. They do not owe you their diagnosis. They do not owe you an explanation. Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing. No one is doing it for fun.
Activists follow and whistle as Greg Bovino leads federal agents out of Circle K, with assistance from Louisiana State Police.
@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high. This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

If you’re dealing with a chronic illness flare, remember it’s ok to rest. You’re not failing. You didn’t do anything wrong. You’re not being punished. Flare ups happen and the best thing we can do is lean in to radical rest as much as possible. Save your spoons and give yourself grace.
This is exactly what churches should be doing, calling out injustice. 📌 Lake Street Church Nativity: a bold social justice statement with ICE-like Roman soldiers, the Virgin Mary in a gas mask, baby Jesus zip-tied, Joseph on the ground, pushing viewers to think about immigration.
BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.
No one deserves to starve. No one deserves to starve. No one deserves to starve. Most SNAP recipients work. They need SNAP because corporations refuse to pay a living wage. The rest are disabled, elderly or unpaid caregivers. People should be fed. Period.
Profound admiration Teen brothers patrol the Chicago suburbs to track ICE agents and film raids
Imagine if we could all agree that hungry people should be fed. Homeless people should be housed. Sick people should receive medical care. If basic needs were guaranteed and taken care of, society would be healthier and happier.
Fuck parties and party lines just take care of people goddamnit it shouldn't be that fucking hard. Work to decrease the amount of suffering in the world and do everything you can not to increase.
