---- if a few people want to help me, i'd appreciate it, but let's do this. we can't let people die

tomorrow I’m visiting my beloved colleague in creative writing’s class to discuss my Chronicle article on mental illness in the academy, which she assigned. I just reread it to prepare & cried—my sources & I were so brave.

To become dependent on ChapGPT is to evacuate yourself from your own life.

YIKES, no thanks. I’m gonna be alive inside every damn thing I do, even and especially the ish I don’t wanna do.

if you're going to turn reporting i did almost a decade ago into a breakout story the least you could do is link to it

I think if you DM her you'll get a faster response, but it also sounds like transportation isn't a huge issue within PA (based on her other posts)

(I want kittening to happen for curious reasons so bad)

Windows 10 goes out of support today. My fave useless fact about w10 is that the iconic blue desktop background is a *photograph* - not CGI.

@3r1ng.bsky.social is the one with the kittens and all the answers, I believe

God, this is such a solid, fun game so far. Brb riding my horse around for hours, quests can wait

PA people look at these adoptable shenanigans <3

Yellow fever, dengue, and malaria used to be endemic to river valleys and the southeastern US. That was back in the day before we had decorative man made ponds in gated subdivisions and stagnant puddles from lawn irrigation everywhere. They'd be much more widespread now.

🧵It has been clear for years that a key difference between past instances of book banning and the present censorship cataclysm is that the banning happening now targets not only books, but librarianship as a profession and libraries as an institution. 1/4

Here’s some words/phrases I no longer say due to racist origin that personally gave me the ick so I just stopped using them. I found often times I brought it up ppl just didn’t know so I’m sharing. Do what you want with this info. Okay, ready here we go 🧵

I think we can safely assume this razor clam is shredded from all that exercise shredding (and playing saxophone). Day 12 #inktober #invertober2025 #SpacetoberChallenge #OC_tober catchup

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

This is disturbing and creepy for so many reasons, but it’s also bizarre how much of a push there is for people to ignore listening to their own bodies and instead outsource those decisions to flawed technology.
