I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say perhaps we should focus on the Minneapolis child murderer being a Nazi, not their gender identity. Trouble is, the far-right is already screaming for vengeance against trans people and it just got a lot fucking worse. I'm so scared.

This New Yorker piece is the most hopeful I've felt about the world in a long time. I had no idea solar was booming like this. And if you live in the same world as me, dominated by oil & gas guys maintaining that solar and wind are inefficient gimmicks, you might not've known some of this either.
It took from the invention of the photovoltaic solar cell, in 1954, until 2022 for the world to install a terawatt of solar power; the second terawatt came just two years later, and the third will arrive either later this year or early next.
That’s because people are now putting up a gigawatt’s worth of solar panels, the rough equivalent of the power generated by one coal-fired plant, every fifteen hours. Solar power is now growing faster than any power source in history, and it is closely followed by wind power—which is really another form of energy from the sun, since it is differential heating of the earth that produces the wind that turns the turbines.
Last year, ninety-six per cent of the global demand for new electricity was met by renewables, and in the United States ninety-three per cent of new generating capacity came from solar, wind, and an ever-increasing variety of batteries to store that power.

hey here's something I would love us all to do like RIGHT NOW: find out if your local library is doing any kind of pride programming or display, and if they are, email them to say thank you and why it matters to you. whether or not you're queer. especially if you're in an area where it's fraught

his husband says nothing about a "disagreement." and if his husband's account is accurate, it absolutely was not that. it was a targeted hate crime after years of bigoted harassment. that's not "a disagreement between neighbors" anymore than stalking is "a disagreement between acquaintances"

The average price of a first-run movie ticket in the US right now is $16.08. If the minimum wage had kept pace with inflation, 40 minutes of labor would buy you a movie ticket. Better than how things are now: $7.25/hour means 2+ hours of labor gets you a movie ticket

Modern top surgery is generally designed to fit the shape of the pecs. But is this the only option? I made this graphic, "Worldbuilding With Top Surgery Scars", to imagine what transmasculine surgery could look like in a world apart from ours. Please feel free to share and use for inspiration!
An infographic with text and sketched diagrams titled "Worldbuilding with top surgery scars." Written by 6480 @6480.bsky.social "share + use for inspiration"

Starts with a drawing of a trans guy with scars pointing diagonally upwards to his collarbones. Text: "This is Jirawat. He comes from a culture entirely separate from our modern one, with its own tradition of medicine. Medical practice in his culture focusese on promoting the natural flow of life energy through the body and towards the head. Beacuse of this, surgical scars like his are preferentially designed to point towards the head, to not disrupt the flow of energy.

If needed, a design like this can be adapted for someone with a larger chest just by adding an additional cut or extending the scar further under the arm." (Diagram of same scars with additional cut.)

Two sketches of centuries-old mastectomy scars. "Mastectomies have been performed for breast cancer for hundreds of years, often leaving scars like these ones (left). Over time, surgical practices were refined to create a more pleasing end result, and mastectomies for transmasculine people became more well known.

While the current typical "top surgery" scar is designed to accentuate the curve of the pecs, this is by no means the only option. Thinking about the design of your character's scars can help you better understand both them and the culture they come from—or make their design truly unique!

Depending on the surgical technology available, options like nipple grafts may not be reliable or even come to mind. Is transmasc surgery well known in your world, or does your character have to go to a surgeon who's only treated patients with breast cancer? Surgeries have to be designed and tested—is your character the test case, or an average patient?"

There are many sketches of unusual chest scar designs, including vertical scars, spirals, autopsy-scar inspired designs, multi-pronged scars, and one that looks like a bad injury.

Describing the Trump infestation as “psychotic” is inaccurate — the Trumpists’ behavior doesn’t follow the signs of psychosis — and ableist. People who live with psychosis are worth more than to be tagged with the same brush as these *psychoPATHs*. I keep seeing this. Do better.

“People are inherently terrible” no!!! Have you ever seen a child wait for their friend while they tie their shoelaces? Have you ever known someone who would bring hurt squirrels and rabbits and mice to the nearest vet just so it doesn’t suffer? Have you seen someone grieve? Have you ever read something that hit your heart like a freight train? Have you looked at the stars and felt an unexplainable joy? Have you ever baked bread? Have you shared a meal with a friend?  Have you not seen it? All the love? All the good? I know it’s hard to see sometimes, I know there’s pain everywhere. But look, there’s a child helping another up after a hard fall. Look, there’s someone giving their umbrella to a stranger. Look, there’s someone admiring the spring flowers. Look, there’s good, there’s good, there’s good. Look!!!!
