A foundation has copyrighted the name Gilbert Baker, and even though the flag itself is public domain, they're threatening legal action while calling it the Gilbert Baker flag.

And we're currently driving up a summer surge in the west. Just a heads up, folks - you can go back to masking if you stopped! It's only reasonable to change your behavior based on new evidence. The current variant involves gastro distress. Who wants to spend a week imitating a hose at each end?

I guess Bidens age doesn't matter that much to me cause I don't think US Presidents do nearly as much as the myth likes to tell. Reagan spent the back end of his run with Alzheimers, last guy played golf & shitposted for 4 years, idc if Bidens an ent who speaks once a yr, taking it over Project 2025

if the media could go ahead and treat this claim the way they treat Biden saying "I'm fine" - aka, as a lie that requires days on end of front page stories to debunk - that would be great we'll be over here waiting

Neurotypicals: Life isn't fair. Get used to it. Neurotypicals when an autistic needs accomodation: If we did that for you, we'd have to do it for everyone or it wouldn't be fair.

Finally, my two Chinese garden mantises, Superstar and Major Tom, are both too young to have much personality. Superstar has figured out that she should walk down the wall when I open her enclosure, to be better positioned for moisture and fruit flies.

I have one ghost mantis, Liliana. She's very calm and reserved, and prefers not to be handled. My spiny flower mantis, Elspeth, is a good little killer who gladly comes out to visit, but will try to stab anything that moves.

I have two Giant Rainforest mantises, Wrenn and Tyvar. They're approximately the same age, but Wrenn is much larger and more aggressive. She kills prey at least twice the size of Tyvar's. He's a sweet coward who runs from crickets.

I have five right now, and the woman who'll be taking care of them has asked all the right questions: species? Age? Currently eating what? Things could still go wrong--they're insects--but I feel good about it.

(I am cis. I am also fat, autistic, and a victim of CSA. There is no jury more unforgiving than elementary school-aged children. They judged me subhuman, and my pronouns were "it" and "piggy" until I was fourteen.)

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

They've been acting like they'll never lose another election, and so here we are, where elections matter less each cycle. Remember that they wouldn't try so hard to keep us from voting if it didn't matter. Turnout and undeniable numbers are how we can push back now, and hopefully the future.

I AM RELEASED FROM NDA SHACKLES. Lucasfilm finally gave artists permission to post their Season 1 Young Jedi Adventures work! I mostly have been responsible for color scripts, but did do some character design early on! I loved developing the kitten version of the Loth/Tooka cat!

I can fully understand that. But if you go too deep into your own head, you're more likely to slip (I'd say ask me how I know, but you know how I know).

I have finished SOVEREIGN, the second book in the Nemesis series by @aprildaniels.bsky.social, and I am pleased to report that there is no second-book drop in quality: it's hard, sharp, sincere, and absolutely delightful.
