The Cornell Rapists should die in prison. Everyone in the group chat, every member of Cornell's admin that helped to sweep it under the rug, & the prosecutor that declined to file charges should all be held accountable, also. None of them should ever be allowed to have a future worth worrying about.

The past summer was one of the busiest & most enjoyable I've had in an extremely long time. An endless parade of burlesque & drag shows, birthday parties, concerts, pool parties, movies, dance parties, & gaming (board, TTRPG, & video). Some ups & downs, but largely, it could hardly have been better.

@bsky.app Hey, your identity verification system is broken. It's saying I'm in a state that I'm not in, and it's not a VPN issue. I had to turn on a VPN just to post this. And there's no way to contact support from that page. just log out or delete your account. Absolutely horribly designed.

True story: 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' was originally written as a love song titled 'Vampires in Love' for a Nosferatu musical that never happened before being recorded by Bonnie Tyler.

Had a fantastic three-day weekend involving dance parties, drag shows, and board games, where I was largely able to ignore the holiday. Saw OBSESSION last night with friends, and it was anxiety-inducing in the absolute best way. If you like unsettling horror movies, you absolutely need to see it.

Recently discovered that I no longer feel like shit when I run into a former friend out in the world, found out I'm getting a bit of a raise soon, & I recently got back on something that helps my headspace a ton also. Feels weird, but it's kinda nice how things have been going lately. 🤞

I did hear from Amal thankfully. She's been feeling unwell and her blood pressure dropped sharply. The campaign is still quite sluggish and she really needs to raise the money for Naser"s medicine soon. ❤️🙏 gofund.me/4fd2dfc05

Everything sucks and the best I can manage to help me deal with that is dissociating away all of my free time. I miss feeling like an actual person.

ICE agents are state-sponsored domestic terrorists, and every single person that works for the agency must be tried for their crimes against humanity. And that's the *moderate* version of my feelings on this matter. 🙂

Thanks to a glitch, I've enjoyed free Amazon Prime shipping for over 15 years. The feature that allowed the glitch to exist is being discontinued, so I'll be losing free shipping. Oh well. I feel really good knowing I cost Amazon even just a few thousand dollars worth of lost revenue, honestly.

Had a pretty fantastic weekend. For the most part. Went to lunch with a friend on Friday, which ended with them being shitty. They've since apologized, but change is the best apology, so we'll see. After that I had to waste a few hours & way more money than I'd wanted on having some car work done.

I wish I were more of a Clark Kent, but without a doubt I'm actually a Reed Richards. Good with problems, less so with people; being myself hurts people I care about in ways I would never intend; and I wouldn't wish my brain on anyone else ever.

Made psilocybin mushroom tea this weekend, and it was without a doubt my favorite mushroom preparation I've ever done. Mushrooms normally tear my stomach up & that really negatively affects my experience. The tea made me feel very, very full, but there was none of the stomach pain I normally get.

Feel like an extended social media break is due. Seeing the endless stream of despair-inducing, horrific news on Bluesky is extremely depressing, and that's really all this place is. The social media sites that seem to be more about sharing personal stuff though are ethically compromising.

Had a really good weekend. Played a bunch of Baldur's Gate 3, saw an incredible burlesque show that was entirely Bjork-themed, had a productive lunch talking through some issues with a friend, and had a great afternoon hanging out with some friends I don't hang out with often.

Some friends have been encouraging me to get my passport renewed, but I don't really see the point. I don't have anywhere to go or any way to get there. The family I have are all here. I don't blame anyone for leaving, if they have a reason to & a place to go, but not everyone does.

Just read the Silent Hill 2 remake did so well, Konami is letting Bloober Team do an original game in one of Konami's existing franchises. Hasn't been revealed which franchise but if it's not a new Silent Hill game then I kinda hope they let them do a new Castlevania.

There is nothing more decorous and proper than ejecting Nazis from a space with as much rancor and force as is necessary. If you value decorum, the correct thing to do is to fight them, loudly, tooth and nail until they are gone.

Study finds India doubled its tiger population in a decade

The study found that some local communities near tiger habitats have also benefited from the increase in tigers because of the foot traffic and revenues brought in by ecotourism.

The library where I worked at the time did not successfully fulfill a single Patriot Act request. Not that this is relevant to the current situation. I assure you this is a random memory that popped into my head with zero prompting.
