Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I’ve been a FreeTaxUSA proselytizer for years and years and I strongly encourage everyone to make the switch. same kind of step by step “for dummies” interface, even for my complicated freelancer taxes, and you don’t have to give your money to one of our most evil lobbyists
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

Most of y'all know I volunteered for Scarleteen for a decade(!) & I'm more proud of that work than anything else I've done. I can point to so many moments that I KNOW made a huge difference in a young person's life. ST staff & volunteers work hard and do so much good; let's help get them healthcare!
Scarleteen is people-powered, NOT AI! We’re raising $40,000 for staff and volunteer health care and today, we’d like to celebrate some amazing volunteers who make inclusive, joyful sex, health, and relationships education possible. www.classy.org/campaign/scarl...

This was also one of mine. It had some of the most incredible thoughts about art and creating.
There's one I always think of when I'm in a creative rut, and I might not get it exact here but it was something like "He had been standing still - for an artist, one of the more painful forms of death."

performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!
tell me about a book that changed you
for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win
Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins Virginia governor’s race.
