Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
![Hello Bone Colleagues,
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

There's no way potato phone was gonna pull a clear picture, but that one star (planet?) Above the crescent moon right now is gorgeous.
You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid
IGN@ign.com · last wk.GTA 6 has received a rating of PEGI 18, revealing mentions of "decapitation," the ability for players to snort cocaine at any time, "scenes of sexual fetishes," and much more.
Trying to figure out how to run power-over-ethernet to the far corner of the yard to get it inside the shed to get a security camera mounted - not because I'm worried about people, but I am now possessed by the need to see what creatures are gonna be bopping through the yard at night.

Democrats seem headed for big wins, but one avenue for self-sabotage would be adopting R's framing on trans rights. @billiejsweeney.bsky.social spoke with insiders incl Lanae Erikson of Third Way and Rep. Sarah McBride for this substanial piece of new reporting. assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

Insiders, including at centrist think tank Third Way, are cautioning Democratic candidates against echoing Republican talking points on trans rights.

I have been basically underwater so I'm just now looking at the Cornell news of the past 48 hours and I just do not have words. No wonder they pick the bear. Vile. So vile. Nothing has changed.
The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.
The film is written, directed, and co-stars Hitoshi Ozawa, a legendary Yakuza actor who is a villain in Yakuza 0, who got his fellow legends involved. This was his passion project inspired by one of his best friends, a trans woman, and he worked with the community for representative casting.
Justin Decloux@declouxj.bsky.social · 8mo agoTHE CLANS HEIR IS A TRANS WOMAN (2013) is like Steven Seagal decided to Write/Direct/Star in a love letter to his trans friends, but it looks and feels like every action movie he's made... except Hitoshi Ozawa is way way way way cooler than Seagal.
Ten years of relentlessly hateful, comically elitist anti-democratic politics across the white people world, helpfully summarised. The wrong people are talking, the wrong people are deciding and it’s harming the careers of important people who actually matter. Smithers! Release the hounds
En Buen Ora@enbuenora.bsky.social · 2w agoThis is a fantastic brief essay in how news media & pundits turn upside down who is who is being punished for speaking freely--in the case of Kraft, Macklemore, & Sheeran--when rich elites want things to go one way, but unruly peasant masses refuse to go along. www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2026/se...
I had forgotten just how bad the Warren Ellis stuff is. One hundred women. And he's working again.
![Sexual coercion allegations
In June 2020, several women (including musician Meredith Yayanos, artist Zoetica Ebb, and photographer Jhayne Holmes) publicly accused Ellis of sexual coercion and manipulation, in having engaged in simultaneous relationships with several of them without the others' knowledge.[126][127][128] The Daily Beast reported that "by 19 June, over 60 women had joined a group organized by Holmes, all of them accusing Ellis of a largely consistent pattern of behavior".[128] The Guardian later reported that "roughly 100 women have come forward, while 33 of them have composed written statements, supported by emails and text messages, which have been seen by The Guardian".[129] These testimonials were posted together on a website, SoManyofUs.com, in July 2020 and contain allegations of "manipulation, gaslighting, coercion, and other forms of emotional abuse" attributed to Ellis.[129][130]
Ellis responded, writing that he had not considered that others would see him as having "a position of power and privilege", and adding: “I have hurt many people that I had no intention of hurting. I am culpable. I take responsibility for my mistakes. I will do better and for that, I apologize."[127][131] DC Comics subsequently announced a two-page story written by Ellis would not be included in an upcoming anthology, at his request.[132][133][130] Ellis ended his long-running email newsletter, which he had published under various titles since 1995.[134]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ferg4n5m47vdkeqp46dradym/bafkreidruvsxbrdkn5o3qk6a7hb3zmfktaw3z2q5ksd3m7cwwxuwncskd4)
![n mid-July 2020, an article in The Guardian reported "Ellis responded to these accounts with self-pity and what seemed to be genuine contrition. [...] Ellis insists that the problem was relationship trouble, 'not predatory behaviour', but concedes that '[t]here is a differing of perception here, and I've been listening to it'. He said he was going to try therapy on the advice of friends".[129] The Hollywood Reporter later reported Ellis would not be returning to Castlevania for subsequent seasons and that a planned Batman comic would no longer be moving forward.[135]
In June 2021, a week after Ben Templesmith announced he would be collaborating with Ellis for new issues of Fell, Image Comics announced they would not be publishing the series following negative reaction from within the industry.[136] An update on SoManyofUs.com informed that Ellis reached out to the site’s managers to say he was willing to engage in conversation or mediation.[137] Ellis reactivated his dormant website to inform subscribers about this development.
In an update in January 2022, SoManyofUs.com reported that their members have been in a mediated dialogue with Ellis since August 2021 and that they were making progress in what was described as “a guided transformative justice process”.[138] In February 2022, Ellis relaunched his newsletter, in which he linked to the SoManyofUs.com update and website.[139] On January 19, 2023, SoManyOfUs.com once again updated the site, alleging that Ellis "took none of the steps we hoped he would", and also stating "we do not anticipate our involvement in any progress he might make in the future."[140]
Announced in August 2026, Image Comics has begun working with Ellis.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ferg4n5m47vdkeqp46dradym/bafkreiekjfb56hdoeyds342vcqnnkowwcoa65ae4fojzaelushqni4axiu)
