I’d probably waste it all crying

(Thursday is tattoo day)

I think it's funny that the fresh wave of AI scams targeting authors aren't even really preying on a desire for wealth and status but instead, very simply, the fantasy of "a person reaching out to say something nice." Really gives a barometer of where we're at right now.

It doesn’t but it’s super low end. Great for where she is now, and when I’m finally back in a larger place, easy to trade up.

A man in a burgundy hoodie looks directly at the camera with a worried expression, a person wearing a mask and head covering lies in a hospital bed beside him, and an IV drip hangs above.

A young man wearing a black shirt and Adidas track pants stands in front of a blue tarp tent, with clothes hanging on a clothesline.

"SAVE MY MOTHER 🙏

I love my kiddo’s keyboard for its small footprint but I miss pedals so i don’t love playing it.

My ego, she is BACK

🥰

I can join you for frolics after my kids’ dentist appt

Fuck yeah

I love mushrooms so much. look at this octobaby fungus

I do not know if I’m chronically back yet, but I am back, and ready to harass y’all with my insecurities while I query agencies.

MWAH, darlings, you’re the best💋

I’ve already deleted more posts than usual for a day…

Anyone else down to clown instead of trying to survive?

So please, if you can, I’d love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activists…if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?

Post links if you can.

Buy stuff if you can.

They hate when people stand up.

Help Jamal’s family leave the war zone and rebuild their life! Hi my loves! My name is Caroline, and I created this fundraiser to help Jamal support his family as they fight to survive the genocide in Gaza, evacuate to safety, and eventually rebuild their lives f...

Surviving the genocide was only the beginning. I am now a stranger in my own city, left without a home or a clear path forward. I am dedicated to rebuilding my life from zero. Your support, no matter how small, is the foundation I need to start over. Thank you all 🫂

Oh no I’m so sorry. He’ll still get the temporary letter which is— not nothing.

I have a proof for C&CV2!

HOLY SHIT. It’s fucking gorgeous.

What authors and publishers pay editors for in a developmental edit is literally their time and expert analysis. If a developmental editor is charging you money to offload that work onto an LLM, you are quite actually being scammed.

Periodic reminder that CIS isn’t renewing green cards or even processing the applications, forcing permanent residents out of compliance.

I’m having a bad day, of anyone would like to toss a coin to your witch-er…

It’ll go towards the work. I might need a lawyer soon.

😂

Sadly, it may impede the life of crime I’ve been dreaming

My friend is tattooing my hand this week and I’m READY.

Oh no. Now I’ve got to watch it

Partner is watching reaction videos. I irritated them by singing along with the entirety of Extreme’s More Then Words

It might be my childhood favorite song & it’s the only concession I’ll make to the nugget of romantic in the deepest corner of my stony little heart.

WHAT ELSE COULD I DO?

Mother & child

Masa&Maha® The war is over, but now I stand on land I no longer recognize, caught between two feelings: the joy of survival and the unbearable bitterness of loss. I search for my daughter's hands, but I can't find them. My tears today are neither pure sadness nor pure joy. They are an acknowledgment that life has won over us, and that the price was my soul.

Her remaining son

“I buried Maha&Masa with my own hands.Now,I watch the cold & hunger slowly stealing Ibrahim, my last heartbeat.I lost my home & my daughters; l refuse to watch my only son freeze to death in this tent. Please, don’t look away.Help me keep him alive.”😭🙏💔

Thank you!

Tweet from Daniel Pipes: "The uprising in Iran in early January suggested an even greater insurgency would then follow on the U.S.-Israeli campaign to erode regime power. Yet, the populace now appears cowed into near-silence. This ranks as the most surprising and disappointing development of the past week. Without a new uprising, the regime will likely remain in power, less powerful but more awful than ever. (The picture below is from Jan. 10 in Tehran.)"

Amazing how quickly "We're fighting this war for freedom of the Iranian people" becomes "The Iranian people are at fault for not rising up."
