BREAKING: In a stunning leak, JD Vance is found to be calling for a federal response to stop women from traveling from red states to blue states to receive reproductive healthcare. Retweet so all Americans hear this devastating leak.

@Yoda4ever What king of teddy dog is this?👀

@PennyRed do you only write speculative fiction stuff for film/tv?

I really, really want to see a Desperate Romantics-type TV show, but about Beat poets/artists in San Francisco in the 1950s. And Rebecca Solnit should be a consultant.

Watch revue girls dancing on stage?
Sorry, not really my thing.
What do you mean one of them is dressed like a cathedral?! 😍

A month & some very thoughtful edits later, this was the result. You can read "Sour Milk and Bitter Herbs" over at @_SarahGailey's newsletter right now, for free. I hope you will, & work for the liberation of all people. https://t.co/sbJGm3KmWL

@notbeforenoon OMG I didn't look 👀

I am watching The Gilded Age and enjoying it thoroughly.

Except...as a costume wonk, there is one thing that bugs the shit out of me. Louisa Jacobson Gummer does a fine job with her character, but she's a model, a *modern* model, and she looks like one. Someone with her skinny..

...build and narrow hips would be struggling with her figure in that era, especially someone of her social standing. She would be seriously investing in padded undergarments.

Why have the costume folks fallen down on the job?

Now a pair of 150° in Iowa. Heat Index values are the highest many of us have ever seen. Does anyone know what the US record is?

And yes, I know a long-term database isn't kept for dewpoint and heat index

[Heather McDougal is on Mastodon @wundergrrl]

Wow, this explains so much.

A testament to how extreme & overwhelming the climate is this summer is, this Record “Shattering” heat dome has been barely covered by the national media. It’s largest US heat dome in recent memory and in a large part of the nation’s middle the most intense, by a long shot. 1/

@DarrenMcLean_uk Are the leaves super spiky? It looks like a California Nutmeg to me. But if they're soft, I'm wrong.
