Hi! My name is Savannah. I live in the PNW with my family, and I dabble in a few things! I make mixed media/collage art, music sometimes. I also read a lot, and have been working on a long term project to remove invasive plants from my yard.
Fernando is type 1 diabetic, sorry I forgot to mention that part
My mutual Fernando is diabetic and urgently needs funds to get some food. Blood sugar is dropping fast and this is verging on a medical emergency. Please donate if you can and share!

If you take any photos of people, have them put their signs over their faces, or use something that TOTALLY blocks their face like an emoji before you share it. No blurs- there's a possibility it can be unwound.
By all means, go protest this weekend. But BE SAFE, listen to experienced organizers, DON'T RSVP, WEAR A MASK, and turn biometrics off on your phone if you must bring it.

And if you're arrested protesting in IL, I will represent as many people as I can pro bono. Email me at [email protected].
If you really gotta go, good pointers.

Some people asked me if there was a way to donate to me directly. While I am extremely uncomfortable about this, a lot of close friends convinced me I should set something up, so I set up a ko-fi for those that expressed this. Please do not feel obligated. ko-fi.com/ashuraou

As humans heat the planet, largely by burning fossil fuels, more people are dying in extreme heat. Their deaths are often recorded as accidents or attributed to other conditions that heat exacerbates. This piece tells the tragic stories of people who died preventably in extreme heat in Phoenix, AZ.
Americans are dying from extreme heat. Autopsy reports don’t show the full story
Official reports are likely to overlook heat’s role in a death. As US temperatures rise, experts say the true toll needs to be counted

I'm going to keep sharing my article for a week. If you would like me to stop doing that, please hit my tip jar.

I have a VERY big bill I have to pay through no fault of my own, and if you could help me with it, I would be grateful.

I've just wrapped up a huge trilogy of articles (like 40k words)
if you like my writing, this month is REALLY urgent, as I need to raise a TON of money to pay my tax bill, which the state is making me pay early because, I shit you not, I did my taxes. Apparently a change to the balance, like filing taxes/extensions is bad

paypal.me/stompsite would help a LOT

I'd seen the reporting around Keira Knightley's awful response but wow the video makes it... even worse??? It's so dismissive and callous and that horrible little laugh??? like what the hell?? And the smarmy, "I'm very sorry" in the least apologetic tone I've ever heard in my life. Jfc.
The thing that gets me about actors responding like this whenever they’re asking about JKR is that they always say “we need to learn to agree to disagree ^_^” as if trans people are the ones leading the campaign, when we’re just trying to live our lives while JKR posts about trans hate 24/7

This next game should be short and punchy once I finish the branching bits. I have mapped out the frame work already. Then, I’ll figure out what to do about engines and such.

@nlgchicago.bsky.social is trying to raise $10k to fund ongoing legal support for protesters. They've had to cover long shifts at Broadview, and their volunteers have been repeatedly assaulted by police in the process. More info with ways to donate here: instagram.com/p/DP36ITJja-W/
I quit two books and two video games this week and I'm usually a person who finishes stuff, and it's making me feel bad for some reason.

Like we have finite time on this world but I feel guilty about it or like, worried I'll never like media again or something.

it poisons community, it poisons our air, it wastes our water - and it poisons the mind.

this is the opposite of abundance.
Saka says he was a "tech worker." He was an attorney for Meta. He's mostly just talking about "leveraging" AI and using it to "drive the economy" and "get more people participating in the abundance that's to be had here in Seattle."

i don't know anything about electronics. if a flip phone was left in a sheltered spot but outdoors for 20 years is there any possibility whatsoever of recovering pictures or whatever from it lmfao
Trying out a highly recommended book from a few years ago and had to bounce from it because the way women, moreso Black women, were described was really weird to me.

The fucking "she breasted boobily meme" all over again

An acquaintance of mine (@ismemry.bsky.social) just let me know that they got hit by a car, got injured from that, & are waiting for a tow truck to take them home.

Sharing or any help you can give them is appreciated.

A small consolation that one of those problems can be fixed with duct tape.
