You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't
I clicked the Garashir hashtag and saw your vampire pic in the feed at least? But it still sounds a bit borked.
Hopefully bluesky will get its act together :<

Toad stayed in the bed, and Frog stayed in the closet.

They stayed there for a long time, just feeling very brave together.

I don't know who to credit for this picture as I only saw it about a zillion years down from the creator, but please enjoy this meme. It makes me laugh every time I think of it.

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah
Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first

I'll give it a go :D I've been trying to get into more fandom stuff, I might put it there!
I'll have to give pillowfort another go. I used it a while back briefly but I never found a part of it I wanted to follow. It's bigger than it was then though :)
Giving yourself space to grieve is an important one (one I'm still wrestling with myself so I know its hard!) Look after yourself KB, I hope you find a way to manage 🙂

And this is Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence, which, in my opinion, is easily the greatest Scottish poem ever written about Batman...
I need to get past the bit I'm stuck on in Silksong so I can make some progress. Mostly so I can go back to watching my favourite streamers who have all surpassed me 💔🤣
Diego Luna did a 4 day stint guest hosting Jimmy Kimmel's now suspended show. This bit is wonderful and also called out the situation now.

Haha remember dial up modems? And old school websites? And that one website we all kept coming to, even though we never typed in the address, the one that was a black screen with a picture of a man, and every time we visited the man in the picture was just a little closer? Haha. And remember AIM?

Thank you for being so eloquent Gail :) you've helped me phrase how I've been feeling about the world by writing this in such a beautiful way.
(and you're damn right I'm an X-man!)

In case y'all mised what I was refering to :)
I hope you all read this from me.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.

However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.

I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.

I'd rather be an X-Men by @gailsimone.bsky.social
I'm still working out how to stand up against the rising tide of hate here, but I'm going to - and if that metaphorically means I join the X-Men?

You're damn well right I am.
"I'd rather be an X-man. How about you?"
As Gail said at the end of her writing about being an X-man:
"We don't have a code we follow, we don't have an oath we recite. We have a core set of values; You matter, you're important, you are valued. And if anyone gives you shit, we are here to make them regret it."
Politicians won't convince me my problems are from people coming to where I live to ask for help. Problems come from being people who think its okay to turn people away who are just seeking a safe home, to hurl abuse at them, to wish them gone.
