And this is how I know LIBRAS are GREATLY MISUNDERSTOOD, bc after trying to balance everything for everyone & the World, it's likely that we invented crashing out.

LikeLotionForAsh @eccentrixbreeze.bsky.social · 11h

I love that everyone is saying GEMINI, bc the twins are CRAZY. But since crash-outs are embedded in their daily behavior,

and I also agree with CANCER - their emotional meltdowns & the way they do crash-outs are EPIC.

HOWEVER, 👀 LIBRA! +

ROUGH! It's like some weird variation of a PTSD response, bc they INSTANTLY REACT with wrath. And I get they feel attacked, bc maybe they have to reevaluate their lives. But also, some ppl are just assholes who like to fight.

Either way,

TOOTH AND NAIL ERRY TIME. You right: when it goes against what you’ve been taught it’s ROUGH. They do not listen to understand but respond cause you’ve thrown their whole world off.

LikeLotionForAsh @eccentrixbreeze.bsky.social · 11h

Bc when you tell most ppl anything in opposition to what they've been reared or socialized to believe or something they are not ready to receive, they take it as a threat. They will fight you! It's fear.

I remember back when I was still on Twitter I said that hailing romantic love as the pinnacle of human interaction was what was fuckin us up and you would’ve thought I said desiring romantic love was a sin. They were PISSED that day.

It's very bizarre, but it's triggering for them on a grand scale. I think their immaturity & arrogance & ignorance prevent them from sitting with the info &/or just dismissing it as one's opinion. They get in an uproar.

Ppl are not okay.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

Wikipedia is so cool, bc it'll lead you to the right place.

The rabbit holes that I've been down bc of their well-written pieces.

LikeLotionForAsh @eccentrixbreeze.bsky.social · 1d

Boy, what a difference 20-30 years makes. I remember when we couldn't legitimately use Wikipedia in school & now they need protecting bc they are legitimate (not a peer-reviewed journal but amazing & hard work!).

It's arguably the best non-search engine search engine there is!

Just a reminder that Wikipedia is the only remaining reliable source of information that right wing billionaires can't control. (Although they'll never stop trying.)

Please donate to them whenever you can. Even a little bit helps.

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

A photograph from the 1988 ACT UP demonstration outside the FDA. Many people are participating in a die-in on the front steps, holding mock tombstones with messages like "RIP - killed by the FDA" and "Dead from lack of drugs." A line of police officers (some with classic 80s mustaches) wearing riot helmets stands between them and the building; one cop wearing white gloves is walking through the demonstrators. Affixed to the 2nd story windows of the building is a series of posters and a large blank banner reading Silence = Death.
