Anyway, we are NOT throwing our trans siblings under the bus for ANY reason. NO. You can kick rocks.

It’s SPOOKY SEASON. You need some witchy poetry in your life.
Ali Trotta@alwayscoffee.bsky.social · 2w agoHave YOU snagged my witchy, tarot-filled, myth/fairytale-laden poetry collection, Offerings for Ordinary Gods? www.alitrotta.com/recent-works @vmspod.bsky.social podcast: chimeraobscura.com/vm/episode-6... @scalzi.com post: whatever.scalzi.com/2026/07/21/t... @reactorsff.bsky.social review:
An AI flyer is a brown M&M test. If your event or business is cutting corners by using an AI flyer, where else are you cutting corners? What else are you cheating out on? Why should I be bothered to go somewhere you couldn't be bothered to promote with a little of your own personality?
Again, I feel shitty even asking given the state of the world in general, but this is going to eat about $10,000 all told, and while I think we can get some help from relatives, I’d just. Super appreciate any help anyone has to spare ko-fi.com/dynamicsymme...

“Do you think HUMAN CREATIVITY matters? Most people don't spend a lot of time thinking about poetry until their father dies, you go to a funeral, you lose a child, somebody breaks your heart & that's when Art’s not a luxury it's sustenance.” — ETHAN HAWKE
I always thought he catastrophically overshot. My senior thesis was called “Patterns of normative restraint in terrorist behavior” which is a gussied up way of asking why terrorists don’t do *more* damage. The simple answer is that most of them ultimately want political legitimacy.
Jane Coaston@janecoaston.bsky.social · 3d agoThis piece was fascinating, getting at a point I'd never considered: bin-Laden's entire concept about what 9/11 would do to America was just... wrong. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
It never occurred to me that 25 years after watching 9/11 unfold on a TV screen in my 5th grade music class that I’d be teaching about it to high schoolers in a US History class. Lots of weird big feelings.
I’m a Texan trans kid who almost died because of Ken Paxton. The world should know what he’s done. This was very difficult for me to write, but given what's at stake, I cannot bear to stay silent about what I went through at Paxton's hands. He must not be rewarded for what he's done to trans kids.

Regardless of Talarico’s recent statements on trans people, Paxton cannot be rewarded for the extreme suffering he’s inflicted on me and tens of thousands of Texan trans kids.

Just learned that Category Is Books, a lovely queer bookshop in Glasgow, has been targeted by transphobic violence, & is fundraising to cover the costs of a smashed window & roller shutters. I hate that they have to do this & would love to see them meet their goal.

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoTalarico: "I oppose trans athletes playing in girls' sports if it endangers safety or fairness"

THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS may very well be @wiswell.bsky.social's masterpiece*. Which is really saying something since, you know, he's won the Nebula and stuff. So touching, so monstrous, so human. Bravo! *: his masterpiece *so far*
Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

Got to see Coyote vs ACME yesterday and it was fantastic. Here's my Etch-a-Sketch tribute!
They published this the same day they published the news that Mamdani's office is releasing to the public thousands of documents showing Giuliani's office knew how toxic the air was around Ground Zero and lied about it, leading to more deaths than on 9/11.
Mark Jacob@markjacob.bsky.social · last wk.In a story that's built on questions of Giuliiani's credibility vs. Mamdani's, the New York Times should have pointed out that Giuliani has been disbarred in both Washington, DC, and New York.
Almost let the day pass without posting this one!
