This what killed my brother at age 34 and I'm SO happy that there could be something that saves even 1 person from that horror show. ❤️

Arizona has a ban on trans students on the ballot (Prop 318), so just to be clear, if you vote yes on that, you are dead both to me and in the eyes of God.

Some days when I feel resentful about having spent years explaining that criminalization is the fuel of fascism which is why we have to reject criminalization, I remember that perhaps the time I say it might be the first time someone has considered the idea. So I keep saying it and keep organizing.

Much like how a beach read is any book you choose to bring to the beach, books for men are any books that men decide to read.

This indigenous people's day, remember that indigenous folk are people with ongoing cultures and socio-political identities and struggles.v We're here and now and genocide is an ongoing project. Take this time to learn whose lands you're on and the struggles they're currently facing.

wrote on saturday that trump was not going to let democrats avoid the question of impeachment and here we are with an offense that would have had a president impeached, removed and *at least* exiled if it had happened at any point prior to now.

I love Tim Key and his delight in fucking around with the rules. The difference in Romesh's demeanor during the challenges and the judging makes his reactions to Greg even funnier.

i am finally watching taskmaster in order and s1's Romesh Ranganathan's enmity with Greg Davis makes me fear for Greg if Romesh meets him in a dark alley. 😆 Also Roisin Conaty as the only woman really holds her own and i love that for her.

The reason the far-right loves Russia has nothing to do with “manliness” or “orthodoxy” or “civilization” or even empire. They completely depend on those bots for the numbers and “attention” they give.

The Fisherman by John Langan and The Pisces by Melissa Broder are two very different novels with two very different stories, but ultimately ask the same question of what would happen if you had sex with a fish.

Cover to The Fisherman by John Langan.
Storm clouds tower over a beach where a group of people pull a boat ashore.

Cover to The Pisces by Melissa Broder.
A woman with long, brown hair and in a yellow shirt holds the silhouette of a fish with her head canted back and eyes closed, teeth gritting.

Look at this young star cluster captured by Webb Space Telescope! 🌟 At its center sits a bright yellow star boasting the largest eight-pronged diffraction pattern. To its left, a massive yellow region of dust and gas stretches across two-thirds of the view, embedding blue stars of all sizes.

$A young star cluster filled with many stars that display Webb’s unique eight-pronged diffraction pattern. At its center is a yellow star which sports the largest diffraction pattern. To the left of the star, there is a region filled with yellow dust and gas. This yellow region extends from the bottom, covering about two-thirds of the image. The yellow region has several blue stars of different sizes embedded within. The top third, which lies outside of the yellow region, holds a few bright protostars, within dense gray gas. Those stars illuminate the gas, making it appear blue. A few red outflows from other protostars are visible above this grayish-blue region. To the right of the central star, there is a clumpy, flame-like plume of red dust and gas with protostars that emit a soft white light within. The plume is surrounded by more dense gray gas and dust.$

That time someone dumped a toy house on the cemetery wall and, when I crouched a bit, some ✨ Hollywood Magic ✨ occurred.

wild to be living in a world with live-streamed state executions and legal daylight kidnappings, but every time you turn around some loser is saying, hey man, what if art were completely frictionless? what if we killed even the possibility of human connection??

Just to clarify: we send out quantities between 100 - 3000. If you need a single whistle we really can't help with that.

"We had to take projecting onto characters and put it on the high shelf." "Oh yeah? Why's that?" "People stopped doing media analysis. It got so bad that if you had a different opinion on a character, it was like they were rejecting you as a human and cue the crashout" "That's nuts dude"

If you run or work at an addiction treatment facility that does not allow medications for addiction treatment - including controlled medications or psychiatric medications - you are actively participating in perpetuating stigma and harming people who use drugs, including causing their deaths.

Do not send fiction to the poetry department of Strange Horizons. Mistakes happen, but if the fiction department is closed, you’re not getting around that closure.
