Kieran & I were listening to the Hymn to Aten (Egyptian sun deity) by Erika Mermuse. And then the sun came out.

Sit with us a minute & breathe 💜

Hey buddy! 😍

No really, why do I summon birds? There are about half a dozen house sparrows just hanging out in my window sills and the AC unit. 🤣

Why would you want to fully disable a huge chunk of heavy flying metal over people's heads anyway? Do you also stand under a piano hoisting & cut the ropes? you & a bloc of laser pointer chucklefucks are more likely to take out a life flight or news helicopter anyway. This is not the way to go!

RavenMae @ravenmae.bsky.social · 13h

FFS. No celebrity big enough to have a PR person can be ignorant to the horrible behaviors of the author or director, nor a global boycott of the next job they'll be interviewed about.

I also loathe how we're expected to treat jkr funding anti trans hate as just that bitch Jo from the bus stop.

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 20h

right … which is .. what so many of us are asking for as trans people ???

Kiera Knightley sounds like a BlueSky moderator

Keira Knightley said that before joining the voice cast of Audible's "Harry Potter: The Full Cast Audio
Editions,
" she was "not aware" of the fan boycott
of all things "Harry Potter" over J.K. Rowling's statements about the transgender community:
"You know, I think we're all living in a period of time right now where we're all going to have to figure out how to live together, aren't we? And we've all got very different opinions. I hope that we can all find respect."

Just glorious TL synergy

Screenshot of a tweet showing happy inflatable costumed protestors in the sun. The rightwing commentary on it includes "they are highly organized and now, learning from the leftwing propaganda in Portland, have purchased their own animal costumes to whitewash the violence in Chicago." Below is a video skeet with text "there were so many naked bike riders bike Portland org reports in the thousands of riders"

Dr K is very glad you sought emergency care for that! Also he wonders if perhaps collecting burrs and leaves might help in place of bandages. Let him know.

I am very tired of this, but a quick review.

In America, it is legal for you to own your bullshit laser, no matter how it got into the county.

How you use your bullshit laser matters. Most jurisdictions escalate to felony for lighting up any law enforcement. Doing to them in the sky is ++Felony.

Jake @jakeythesnakey.bsky.social · 19h

This is such an astoundingly bad idea that I kinda think it’s a false flag or an op of some sort

Merits aside, it is insanely easy to be caught if you do this and the punishment for doing this is much more severe than you’d guess.

I'm sorry you deal with that too. I hate the ridiculous conditions where the actual symptoms make doing the treatments more difficult.

Hey, if you find a large Philips head screwdriver with a blue grip, can you roll it back onto my garage floor? Thanks!

If you are in Anchorage looking for a relaxing coffee shop downtown, please go check out my friend’s place. She has been really good to me lately. Brings me the best homemade soups once a week too.

Don’t usually plug businesses here, but Birgit’s place is really worth me bending that rule.

That's my view too. There's more research to show that lack of sleep contributes to dementia. And nothing makes my insomnia worse than migraine pain. So I get Botox & take Nurtec, & let the chips fall where they may.

Yep. And when it's a wellness influencer to boot? 🤦‍♀️
