Look. I'm not mad you bought a Kimmel picture book.

But marginalized creators are getting banned and death threats and harassed all the time.

It'd be neat to show them that wallet solidarity.

Me and Florence Welch are so on the same page right now I can only think about the album she's about to drop for a few seconds at a time or I start mentally unraveling she's literally posting Lolly Willowes passages

This is a HUGE year for the building gamer community 😵‍💫 I've been playing the demo for this game High Above

A screenshot from the computer game High Above. An industrial-looking gray concrete building amidst mountaintops and clouds, with two levels of balcony tucked between inner walls. The upper platform has string lights, a projector screen hung up, plastic chairs and a table full of food, and a pile of pillows on a blanket in the corner. The lower balcony has laundry lines out the windows.

The yearly pay at the federal minimum wage:

$15,080

The average yearly cost of a 1 bedroom apartment in the United States:

$17,340

We need living wages and lower housing costs. This is not sustainable.

Black and white image of Iranian author Marjane Satrapi, smoking a cigarette. "The world is not divided between east and west. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same."

Also. I haven't been posting a lot on here about the state of the country because it seems so cartoonishly insufficient but what they did to Dr. Hayden is so so so so despicable and horrifying and evil. Just pure evil.
