They should like my posts instead. I’m nice.

Far Side cartoon. A man with a bulldozer in his yard has mounted several animal trophies to his wall, all of theme extremely flat.

A Fish Called Wanda (1988, dir. Charles Crichton and John Cleese)

elmo and grumpy from sesame street are standing next to each other on a purple background Alt: Grover and Elmo wiggling about.

I always change the alt text on gifs from the default AI slop, which for this one was:

"elmo and grumpy from sesame street are standing next to each other on a purple background"

grumpy. HA. @briesmith.xyz

I have this Master's of Library Science I'm not using much these days. May as well unretire it for talking him down.

It makes me especially angry on behalf of Christians who need abortions

right??

I talked him down to two hours at the library + a second meeting at a pub with no time constraints, so the alcohol and appetizers can keep the conversation going all night

I don't want political emails from anyone, ever, but especially not this flavor

She won't hear the gospel at an abortion clinic. But she will at PreBorn! Help us reach 12,583 women this month.

I don’t know how the hell I keep getting this misogynist spam. Each time I unsubscribe and support spam. It is odious.

Hardback copy of We Keep Us Safe, by Zach Norris.

Some local resistors are starting a book group. I volunteered to guide the discussion. Another person volunteered to book the library meeting room.

My friends, he scheduled it for ✨four hours✨

hmm I probably should

Thank you! I'm happy with them

Thank you! I was pleased.

Back in the old days on the old site, I was there for the saga of Steak-Umm getting verified. I had faith in them then, and I have faith in you now. #VerifyJerry

White lady looking at the camera with a soft smile. Long brown hair straight out of bed. Cozy brown bra.

White lady smiling at camera. Long brown hair messy from bed, comfy brown bra, spectacular cleavage.

I'm hiding two photos behind an adult label. They aren't naughty. There's visible cleavage but it's not Cleavage with Intent.

Sharing them because I snapped two selfies this morning and I like them both.

Understandably! His full name is The Reverend, but he goes by Revvie. He is 11.5 years old.

Signal is a platform for messaging, known for its security measures. It's what I, and thousands of others in the Minnesota resistance, have been using to communicate as we fight ICE.

I can't disagree

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

One extremely handsome Australian shepherd in a red sweater looks earnestly at the camera. There is a Stonekettle pen resting on his leg. He wants to hear all about your day.

when people try to connect with me on Signal, claiming they know me from social media, they have to pass this challenge:

Name this dog

it strengthens their case if they remark on how handsome he is.

ooooooooooooh I like that

iirc, that was the style manual where whatever I say is the style is the style

Soon I will be back to the normal impediments to creativity: the burden of surviving under capitalism, and never having enough fucking time to do what I want. Which will be a nice change after being impeded by secret masked paramilitary forces.

My brain and emotions are close to normal for the first time since this ICE surge began. Yesterday I held a book in my hands and read for pleasure for the first time in two moths.

And I am itching to write something. Maybe a novel. Maybe nonfiction about sex work.

In seventh grade social studies class, when we were learning about geography, I observed (quietly, to myself) that I could call it the Strait of Whore's Moves.

My opinions are valuable. They can compensate me if they want. I can usually be purchased very cheaply. A candy bar? You're giving me a full-size Twix bar? okay, give me that survey

I despise them with the fury of a thousand suns, but arguably I am just rude

They already were friends! And she threw that away rather than letting her heart grow enough to recognize that trans people are people.

he is straight-up xenophobic and racist. Animated by hate, driven by cruelty.

what kind of person do you have to be to have such a small heart, such stunted empathy
