Serious question: What would it take for you, personally to take to the streets like they’re doing in France right now? Because I am really very sure that’s what we will need to do before things get better.

Update on my WIP for kiddos Halloween costume. I'm really pleased with how this is coming along. I think just some touch ups, some more work on the teeth, and some panel liner on the gold and it's ready for final varnish coating.

It’s so funny to imagine what the UK could be like if it took seriously any of its cultural icons—that aren’t wizards, Shakespeare, or in possession of good fortune but in want of a wife. We could have Tyranid statues at Heathrow. Perhaps a grisly frieze depicting Servitor conversion at Gatwick.

Another campaign finance report from the Yes on 3 (top-two primary) campaign, and again, it's almost all from private equity and the investor class. $1.3M in new money, and 80+% of it coming from just 8 donors--7 private equity executives and investment firm managers plus 1 investment firm itself

And a new Rumi sword for the other kiddo! Can't make something for one kid and not the other. There is a threaded rod giving it some hefty and stiffness inside it. The blue glows in the dark 😃

WIP on kiddo's Halloween costume! He's going to be a dragonborn wizard/sorcerer. Excited to see how this all comes together! The mask was 3D printed and then I used filler primer, white primer, then inks through my airbrush to get this effect.

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes

A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

Ed Markey is projected to win the Democratic nomination for senate in Massachusetts. This is why you don't try to throw trans people under the bus in the Democratic party. Seth Moulton just found out.

Election results graphic projecting incumbent Edward Markey as the winner of the Massachusetts Democratic primary. Markey leads with 73.0% (10,560 votes) against Seth Moulton with 27.0% (3,896 votes), with 1.6% of expected votes reported.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

I was pulling some black swallow wart in the backyard (as you do) and there were a lot of feathers around. Odd but not unusual. Suddenly this hawk swoops down and starts munching on a pigeon! Just a few feet from me! So cool! SO HUGE! 😲
