Amid the human horrors of these days, and to use a word from the article, this piece was restorative. Thank you @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social for this.

Almost exactly ten years ago.
Someone please find a Republican with a backbone (I know, I know) who can be the first to stand up and say this is enough, this has to stop.

Resistance, compassion, care. ❤️

Poem by Servane Mouazan soak in the ebbing skin's warmth knead, strike, flex, rise, point doused, immersed, lost, on the edge of confused dreamy hours this morning the world whispered give away your belongings be ready to flee, fly, vanish and no longer long for what could have been ~ebb @servanemouazan

soak in the ebbing skin's warmth
knead, strike, flex, rise, point
doused, immersed, lost,
on the edge
of confused dreamy hours

this morning the world
whispered
give away your belongings
be ready to flee, fly, vanish
and no longer long for
what could have been

More of people in power telling fascist murderers to fuck off, please.
JFC, all decent USians, so much sympathy and love to you.

"A malevolent coat rack" just had me laughing out loud on the subway. 😄

If everyone were more like my hairdresser, the world would be a much better place. When faced with something new: Oh wow, that's so interesting, people really function in such different ways, I'm going to go read up on this, thank you!
Today I got to educate her on polyamory. 😊

A historian (Dan Bouk) taught me that history doesn’t repeat itself. It simply ripples. This forces you to look for the threads. And the entanglements. And to remember that interventions also create ripples. You can’t simply repeat a previous intervention when you see a connection. Context matters.

Wonderful!
Do you have any idea when it might be viewable in Sweden?

This Neil Gaiman thing is disturbing, but now is a good time to make known that his behavior is NOT a representation of BDSM between CONSENTING adults. There are two terms known in the community: SSC (Safe, Sane, Consensual) and RACK (Risk Aware Consensual Kink) and he obviously practiced neither.

Between the California prison system's firefighter program and the Neil Gaiman stuff, I'm realizing people don't understand that consent under duress is not consent

Thank you for writing this. It needed to come out in a big way. But the writing can't have been easy, for several reasons. You did a marvellous job of telling this absolute horror story. I hope the women can heal.

What was it that Granny Weatherwax had said once?
"Evil starts when you begin to treat people as things".

Could you please direct me to a good tutorial or overview of these things? 🙂

Thank you! I'm just hoping this place will be less fascist-embracing and more human.

Trying to get my head around this platform and trying to get my head around how to write larp characters. We will be needing chocolate.

How does a list work as opposed to a feed?
Jaysis, I feel 100 years old 😄

Yes, I've found a message icon, so that seems possible. I was never on twitter much, so my grasp of that is hazy too.

Oh hi! 💙 Great to see you here, and yes it has.
I really don't know this platform yet. Are these messages on my wall or somewhere else?

Hi! I can't figure out who you are, but I presume we know each other 🙂

Well that wasn't what I would have wished for as my first post, but here we are. Hi.
