I simply must share this amazing video clip of @sisterhyde.bsky.social walking us thru her process of picking the GORGEOUS colors and fonts for the upcoming @criterion.bsky.social Kubrick box set She is my new hero:

Cuban artist Belkis Ayon Manso (1967-1999) known for her work based on Afro-Cuban spirituality and myth #womensart

I love this too—the whole language is what I call the Lego approach to language. Just stick parts together! Have you read this?

13yo and I are amusing ourselves at breakfast by looking up “raccoon” on google translate and seeing how many languages were like “yup, that’s a bear doing its laundry” - German: Waschbär (washbear) - Danish: vaskebjørn (wash bear) - Bulgarian: миеща мечка (washing machine bear)

The jimothy discourse makes me want to desperately surface the @pronounced-ing.bsky.social discourse on the linguistic descriptors of racoons but I'm so bad at bluesky search I can't find it. It was so good though.

HOLY SHIT

The rumors are true! @dieworkwear.bsky.social and I have started a monthly book club podcast together. We read works of fashion philosophy and talk about what they mean today. We start with a book from 1705 called Fable of the Bees substack.com/home/post/p-...

LOL... Is that why people on Twitter were making fun of this picture of Hawley and his wife years ago?

This is an abomination.

As a woman looking for all kinds of everybody, I come across many women on these dating apps that will tell you immediately: Don’t even come over here you if you also like men

Whether it’s coming from straight or gay people, biphobia helps push folks back into the closet.

This. Men are imagined as this forcefield that everyone will eventually be drawn back towards. A bi man dating a woman? Gay. A bi woman dating a woman? She just playing.

One thing that really grinds my gears about biphobia is that a lot of it involves the idea that the penis is supreme and everyone who likes penis will leave someone who doesn’t have one for someone with one.

Changing your life is exhausting. Trying to build new habits and stick with new routines with the old energy is exhausting. I want more for myself and I'm getting it but boy. I'm really tired lowkey. But every time I rest I think "you must not want this fr I guess." Then the rest not restful.

In February, USA Rugby banned trans women from all levels of one of the world’s most inclusive sports. What happened next was telling. Across the country, teams refused to comply. The story of the Baltimore Ferals, who are pushing back: www.thebanner.com/sports/rugby...

I think I'm at a point in my life right now where there's a good chance that I would drive into a tunnel painted by coyote on the side of a mountain.

i keep coming back to this. it's not about hating us. it's about degrading femininity as such, and reducing the definition of women to baby makers and ornaments. trans folk get in the way of that. so does women's sports. so does the fucking vote.

I think that Kirk statue and its piss poor reception will slither its way to the right brutes, and they will pay for it *and* for the propaganda that comes with it It’s what dude is betting on and I think he could be right

I am rebuilding my life so it is a slow and steady climb I think I am like a lot of people in that I’m kind of maybe hopefully okay for my little life but *actually* if you turn the light on, shit is very precarious

Same. I mostly keep it btw 500 & 1000 to keep myself honest. And usu transfer anything >1000 into my savings, and try to keep that on the plumper side

Within reason, what is the number that you don’t or won’t let your bank account go below? I feel CRAZY if I have less than $500 in my checking account.

Fantastic writeup of an incredibly complex problem with the interdependence of the entire food system and how the people it screws hardest are the people who care most

Ok. As promised, a thread about supply chain food safety vulnerabilities in the food industry. Buckle up. It's a long one.

All of this is just absurd
