Last school year I started making meals on Sundays to bring into the student fridge on campus. 10-12 meals/week. The impact was incredible, and others started sharing things as well. We really can take care of each other 💜

Do you live in an apartment complex? How about printing out some fliers letting your neighbors know that on a particular day of the week, u will be cooking X extra meals and that anyone who needs one can stop by your place at X hour to pick one up no questions asked? Can even leave them at the door.

Also had to do this today, just sat down by a fountain in the park, and was additionally rewarded by a chocolate lab dragging her owner over to say hi and offering her ears for petting.

The first posts from each of the “government” accounts were overt trolling. They are only here to troll and ensure the strange propaganda reaches more eyes thru counter rage-posts. I say this with reluctance as I yearn for the days when government accounts were for facts. CYA and block.
This is a very good point about DHS. They direct harassment campaigns on Twitter using quote-tweets.
US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.
Block on sight.
Protect your digital space.
Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.
The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

They’re ABSOLUTELY looking for people posting about No Kings. Block them.
I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings.
These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate.
Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

Advocacy which is not born out of love and solidarity invariably leads people to turn on other marginalized groups, to construct rigid privilege hierarchies that don't hold space for the nuance of other group's oppression, and in the end to mimic the form of liberation without the substance

yeah man, trans reporters, whom the ny times derogatorily calls "trans activists" so that normies won't listen to them, have been reporting on ADF activity in the UK since 2018.

Really important NYT investigation finds that the ADF has been working with Reform, 'courting the party since at least 2024' and that the British arm 'orchestrated Mr Farage’s appearance in Congress, reaching out to ask if he would like to give evidence on censorship'

I think one of the challenges of AI discourse is that many people have not yet felt or seen the consequences of overusing water and electricity, and so everybody pointing out that queries use a ton of both means nothing to them. Yet.

Judge: That's what I'll do. Prohibit federalization or deployment of any NG troops into Oregon. For all reasons in prior opinion. Deployment of federalized military is ultra vires and contrary to law, violating Title 10, section 12406. I also find it's likely that defendants violate 10th Amendment.

Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"
