Patrick Stewart's passing feels a whole hell of a lot like Dolly's. It's hard to imagine that singular talents found in people born in the working class or working poor will get fostered the ways theirs were. The things that nurtured those talents have been stripped for profit by assholes.
Dude is a living breathing example of how important it is to believe a better world is possible

Respectfully, @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com Ban him. Creating and fostering an environment that is unsafe for players, continuing to allow someone to break your ToS and outright refusing to protect the rest of your player base is unacceptable.

Heading into the midterms, here's one of my favorite cross stitch patterns that feels relevant. Patterns are free (tips welcome) and are full stitches and limited palette, so generally good for beginning stitchers or good relaxation for experienced stitchers. ko-fi.com/s/8e5fbf75cc

The first pattern (also available!) is an awkward size for framing, although I like the sort of hand written font. This one tightens everything up so ...

“Intersex” is the “I” in LGBTQIA. Learned a lot, watching this.
I don't know whether I appreciate that my brain decided that this was the song to start playing on loop when it needed to fill space today - or whether I'm grateful that it wasn't worse. youtu.be/CIOuYw_i_Cc

Had to see @vitaemachina.bsky.social off to a tradeshow this morning and now I'm alone with the cats and an empty (of spouse) house and this sucks :(

I love cats, I really do, and Mustard is clever and cute, but I do not appreciate that he has learned that the litter comes in bite-able plastic bags and that he can dispense his own dustbath at will 😡
Look at how much healthier he looks in that bottom photo! Hobbes is 16 now, which blows my mind, and he's been on treatment for his IBD for most of the last year. He's chonky* again!! *(he's a healthy weight and our vet is very pleased with his progress)
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.

Thank you @sockdreams.bsky.social for always being incredible!! And yes Vitae looks super cute in the socks, I have excellent taste.
Vitaemachina@vitaemachina.bsky.social · 2mo agoSo @luthvian.bsky.social got me some thigh highs from Sock Dreams for my birthday and included a little note with the order, and got a response. It is incredibly sweet.
I'm sure Bluesky hacked off most of that headline on mobile, so:
Lincoln Carpenter, former skeleton@lincolnhello.bsky.social · 2mo ago"'Where'd EA go? It's been purchased. So we didn't have a wall there,' Adams said. 'Could have had a wall. Didn't have a wall. Many such cases.'"
if you watch it you tell WB to keep making more Potter stuff and you show them that directly funding JKR’s transphobia, that she LITERALLY uses to strip trans women’s rights away, is not a dealbreaker how could i ever feel safe around someone who buys her the boots she uses to step on my neck?
Vita Ayala@definitelyvita.bsky.social · 2mo agoI genuinely am begging people not to watch the new HP show. Like, also don't buy any branded stuff - she makes money off all that. But especially don't watch the damn show.
Here to tell you that the rabies PEP isn’t as horrific as popular culture would have you believe. It’s 4 rabies vaccines and 1 HRIG (human rabies immunoglobulin) injection, all of which are intramuscular. “8 huge, painful shots in your stomach” is mostly a myth, and outdated af (1/4)
Kelly@broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 2mo agoRabies is 100% fatal if untreated. Please help spread the word about the exposure at the Farm Adventures mobile petting zoo in North Carolina. The vaccine is incredibly effective and will save your life. Also…. Rabies at a petting zoo!?!? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
Alas, I am several days late for the ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY of @ryanqnorth.bsky.social getting stuck in a hole! I've missed being able to celebrate this momentous occasion since the rise of fascism!! (quoted post may be dated November 2024 but it's a Twitter import from August 18th, 2020)
Luthvian@luthvian.bsky.social · 6y agoI may be locked this year but I would be remiss if I did not at least mention that today is @ryanqnorth's fifth Hole-A-Versary.

So when SOME glass stuff breaks it just shatters, ok?
Met this handsome fellow when I stopped by our vet's office to pick up Hobbes' new meds. Yes, that is his full name.
Yeah, turn this off ASAP. Also important to note – each image they 'describe' uses an 'AI credit' from your plan, and if you run out of credits? They'll charge you for the extra ones they used without even asking you if you wanted them.
