I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

September is Bi Visibility Month, so perceiving me may be easier, as all bisexuals have disadvantage on stealth rolls until Halloween 1st.

BI REMINDER
💜Bisexual women are still bi even if they're dating men
🩷Bisexual men exist, and they're not "just gay"
💙Ace/Aro bisexuals, & Nonbinary
bisexuals exist
💜Sexual orientation is about attraction, not action
🩷Bisexuals dont need to have dated all the genders/gender identities they re attracted to - to know they're attracted to them

I say this extremely seriously: one of the main skills children have to learn to be adults is to do things they *don't* find interesting. This is both because many necessary things in life are boring and because sometimes interesting things take time and effort first.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

What ChatGPT has made even clearer to me is that there is a large population of people who have no opinions of their own, no taste of their own, no feelings or thoughts of their own, or if they have them, they don't trust them. They would outsource thinking to a spouse or parent before, now it's AI

If you’re worried about teenagers spending too much time online, maybe try making offline less shit, less expensive, and less likely to involve local Facebook group busybodies crying about how teenagers dared to exist in a group in a public space?

The freakout about the Zohran government possibly opening some groceries store in food deserts is fascinating because the simplest way for capital to route around it would be for businesses just open up there and obviate the need but they appear unwilling/uninterested in doing so, so govt steps in.

Collective griping about bad generic versions of drugs in the other thread made me realize it's been a while since the PSA: if your pharmacy switches which manufacturer they use to supply a generic drug, and the drug works differently or doesn't work, file an adverse effects report with the FDA.

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: what we want is for these things to be run like a HOUSEHOLD… a home. A household still has a budget and an income and resources to manage; all the moving parts are the same but the focus is different.

a business will let every person in it die a terrible death if it makes the business profit. A household will spend it’s last dollar to keep the people in it safe and healthy.

A household will use money as a resource to add value to the lives of the people in the household. A business will use people as a resource to add monetary value to the business

We don’t want a government run like a business, we want a country run like a household. Because we live here.

My project this weekend was to make watermelon cupcakes for my youngest’s birthday party. While, to her dismay, I didn’t actually use watermelon to make them, we enjoyed them anyway

The freshly baked cupcakes, still in their pans. They are pink, made with strawberry cake mix. Some of them have homemade parchment paper wrappers instead of regular store wrappers because I ran out. I also put mini chocolate chips inside to imitate watermelon seeds.

The same cupcakes, but now on two disposable aluminum pans and frosted. The frosting is a pale pale green base with a light green squiggly lines on top. None of the patterns on the lines are the same because I didn’t know what I was doing until I got to the last few cupcakes. I promise I know what watermelons look like.

The same cupcakes, but now with two sour patch watermelons on top of each. I really think it brings the whole thing together.

My darling sister in law brought these cute watermelon plates so I plated the cupcakes with them. There are 8 cupcakes on each plate, one in the center and 7 in a ring around the middle.
