A lot of people shocked that there's not consensus over the salute must not know that this is what racism usually feels like

Disclaimer that I don’t know how true this is. But if it is, useful to keep in mind for your gofundmes

Text messages saying insurance companies might pay less for your damages if your gofundme specifically says the funds are to rebuild your house, so be vague (ie “to support in this hard time”)

“Built like a casino” is so accurate that I had to share.

Before any situation that might involve cop interaction, TURN OFF YOUR PHONE. Phones require physical passwords to unlock on first boot after power down; cops can’t force you to unlock with biometrics when that happens.

Reminder: you don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it, you don’t have to get better at it, you don’t have to monetize it, and it doesn’t have to be useful.

What are the words that you mispronounced in your head when you read them long before you heard them? Mine are Anathema and Superfluous. I still prefer to say Soup- ur-floo-iss conversationally.

The philosopher Viktor Frankl said, “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” Buddhists have a name for that space: the sacred pause.

The sacred pause between the election and what comes next

There are plenty of fires to fight right now in America, but there’s a fire inside you, too. Appreciate this sacred pause—this space between fires—and let your flame find its way.

Today is my father’s Name Day. This is a tradition where you get a fuss on the saint’s day that shares your name. Birthdays are just for immediate family. It makes so much sense as a tradition, since acquaintances don’t need to know your birthdate to kindly celebrate you.

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

Reproduction of excerpt from Timothy Snyder's book ON TYRANNY:

"1. Do not obey in advance.
Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

One possible explanation for the Fermi Paradox. Via mastodon.social/@morecowbell...

Two aliens have disembarked from their flying saucer and stand looking up at a statue of Jesus crucified on the cross. One alien is speaking, and he says, “You know what we need to do? We need to get the fuck out of here, that’s what we need to do.”

Did some picketing in support of SAG at WB today. Ran into Josh Malina and discovered he’s not here on BlueSky yet…

No wonder everyone’s going on strike, and no wonder management is so scared of giving in. Now we know: they can share their wealth any time; they just don’t want to. They won’t let go because you ask nicely. You have to pry their fingers loose one at a time.

NFTs were and are a gruesome, exploitative scam, creating just enough collateral and artwork to fool a person into believing that this was a lasting product, using the language of conspiracy theorists and televangelists to say you were “going to make it." tinyurl.com/wyat92623

It’s the season for the three characters challenge. A kickass TV Writer, a Number Two who makes her boss look good, and the witch I’m named after. What are yours ?

I had about a dozen of these half-size signs in the garage left over from the 2008 strike. I’ve had one taped to my walking stick since May. I have 8 or 10 left that I’m giving away to anyone who might want to frame one over their desk as a souvenir.
