Finally felt comfortable enough to ask a friend in Tokyo to send me 2 Sofubi I ordered in 2024 & 2025 that he’s been holding for me with the understanding that it would be a 10% tariff (so around $30). What I didn’t know is that UPS tacks on an additional $30 for processing 😑
The “best” thing about genAI (the quotes are doing heavy work here) is that it’s really lowered the bar on getting into hand-made art. Literally anything you make is better than ai. There’s never been a better time to throw away your fear and start learning that craft you’ve always wanted to learn.
I will never vote for another democrat
There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.
I have a feeling that having no fucking idea who Hank green is is serving my mental state well.
Me watching around an hour of Masters of the Universe: Man this is pretty boring I dunno Me later after vaping weed and watching the next hour of Masters of the Universe: Yes.... hahaha this is great!
New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...
🚨🚨 In Gaza, asking for help is no longer a choice, but a necessity. A lawyer & pharmacist lost their jobs & office, with no income for 3 years. They struggle to afford food, medicine, & basic needs for their 2 kids. Donations are low, please help us ❤️ Vetted by Molly Shah ✅ tinyurl.com/4rycmjm5
Finally got around to listening to @thedailytism.com ‘s new by and for autistic people’s comedy podcast and holy shit yes. This is great and I’m fully on board
World, meet Büms.
One nice thing: a gal who I’ve shared an on and off thing with for 16 years (!) has been back in contact lately and we are showing our feelings again. She’s going to try and figure if she can come down south to spend time with me for her birthday. Last time we were actually together was 9 yrs ago.
Hello this is a photo of the orange cat that lives with the guy who’s next door to the shop where I work. Ive forgotten the orange lad’s name.
A baby was rescued by her family after her home was set on fire by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank. The attacks come as settlers and Israeli forces carry out extensive raids across Nablus.
Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...
Researchers used electric stoves to treat asthma. It worked.
The latest evidence that gas is bad for your health.

AuDHD can be such a fuck sometimes. Yesterday I actually got a bunch of work done and made some much needed money. Today I feel like I'm just stuck in a near pointless cycle of not really having much agency, just making enough to tread water financially still.
One thing to keep in mind with this is how they *want* to hurt people. During the shutdown last year they were salivating at the chance to use defunding SNAP as a pain point to make Democrats give in. They’re proud of doing this. They like the pain.

"Genocide" is the exact correct word for it, and I am tired of pretending it's not
The story of a trans girl who tried to fight Idaho's anti-trans laws, and died to suicide earlier this year, is only now coming to light. Our hearts are broken, but we need to tell these stories and mourn our dead, because the media is barely bothering to look for the victims of trans genocide.
