Thought to myself: “I’m having a great work day.” Which makes me investigate a bit: what makes me feel this way? What is making today so satisfying?

actors are on strike, writers are on strike, teamsters are on strike, hotel employees are on strike, grad students are on strike, health care workers are on strike... can we realize there are deep systemic issues in this country yet

As far as online shouting goes, I will point out that I spent years screaming at y'all about imminent climate collapse and people acted like I was crazy to think it would happen so quickly. But I was right about everything down the line. So here's another freebie of horror:

@Essence this video doesn't feature her talking about Essence Fest at all. Misleading and a waste of time.

@sbkaufman Questioning gender norms still happens. Questioning ones gender is an AND not an instead. One could argue that being able to question gender norms in our culture made questioning ones gender more possible. They are distinct but related struggles.

@AdinaNorth I saw this somewhere recently but dismissed it because I'm all digital. So glad to hear your thoughts on it. I like the Avoidance Log and the Email Like a Boss sections. May get for my family; has good practical tools for getting unstuck.

@AdinaNorth it's amazing you're doing nice things for her; wish she appreciated.

Another shitty SCOTUS ruling that will have real impact on people's lives because it reinforces the worst and most common bigotries. Thankfully "the Law" doesn't dictate reality - we always retain the power to be good to one another and to the planet.

[HSofia Reads 📚 @HSofiaReads]

At its best, "The Law" protects and enforces our greatest hopes for co-existence and continuation. At its worst, it looks far, far worse than these latest rulings. What matters more than any law on the books is how we relate to and support our marginalized communities.

@nickgerli1 does this data make a distinction between complete house/flat rentals and bedroom only/shared house rentals?

@OmegaBlonde @blackgirlinmain whaaat!? that sounds suspiciously anti-vaccine agenda. pharmacy should only need a verbal yes to the question of "are you immunocompromised?"

The AI bots have broken Amazon.
Take a look at the Best Sellers in Teen & Young Adult Contemporary Romance eBooks top 100 chart.
I can see 19 actual legit books.

The rest are AI nonsense clearly there to click farm.
@AmazonKDP what are you doing about it?

I just can't underscore how this is likely the most important decision of this term--even including Affirmative Action, Student Loans, Voting Rights Act--bc partisan legislatures would literally have the power to do anything they wanted with federal elections. ANYTHING. Let the potential antiBlackness, classism, racism etc sink in. #SCOTUS
