Figuring out what masculinity means to me versus what people expect was how I came to terms with who and what I am.

So is it just me or are more and more people losing their minds when they're pushed into doing anything related to showing empathy or helping people?

Sex work is work and sex work by sentient alien slime is just plain fun.
What screams NYGEL more than an erotic tale about boinking a slime sex worker? That’s what @ttmaddenwrites.bsky.social brings to the table with “Shore Leave,” the first story in NYGEL’s first issue, available for $2.50 for a limited time and ONLY on the NYGEL site!

1. MAGA is a fully American thing. We need to own our own shit, not exotify it.

An annual reminder:
The cognitive & emotional toll of staying in contact with abusive family can be both significant & difficult to recognize.
There's a kind of social contract that abusive parents have violated. You owe them nothing. Nothing.
Thanksgiving doesn't change that.

Catholic sisters are all about doing the thing, not talking about the thing.
In the US, Catholic sisters return Wisconsin land to Ojibwe tribe in a historic first. The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration have transferred a lakefront property to the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa for the same $30,000 they paid in 1966.

For the first time, Catholic sisters return land to a Tribal nation
"This return represents more than the restoration of land — it is the restoration of balance, dignity, and our sacred connection to the places our ancestors once walked."

99% of Discourse could be avoided if people simply accepted that multiple things can be true at the same time, and often are. The universe isn't divided neatly into heroes and villains. Humans are messy and complicated. Everyone always thinks they're the good guy, no matter how awful they are.

We need it. Not only are the classes full, but also concert halls, libraries - we've gone to a bunch of classical concerts this year as an antidote to despair and guess what - they are full. They were not as full before, but they are now.

"While other universities report that the humanities are shrinking, at Berkeley, the opposite is true. The music major is the fastest-growing major on campus. We are finding bigger classrooms because film is exploding. English is back to the numbers we saw 15 years ago. We are hiring" bit.ly/4ohKuOe

There need to be social consequences for enacting anti-evidence policies that kill kids.
