it should be illegal to move your cat off-camera during a Zoom meeting

She's still got all the Maurice Sendak cartoon character facial expressions but her fur is looking much better & she's gaining weight!

old video game puzzles were like, "connect these 37 wires in a way that metaphorically represents the plot of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night" and now they're like "here's four animals, which has wings"

@aaron.bsky.team, hi. I'm a low volume nobody here AND I work directly w/ victims of CSA & HT, DV, all the horrible things. I have a vested interest.

I see your line in the sand. It's condescending to users when you dismiss the legitimate point about Dept of War saying "We will kill you." Discuss.

This being the last post Alice made for herself makes me incredibly sad. We need more spaces for us. We need more places where voices like Alice’s are uplifted so that others can learn from the wisdom that needs to be shared.
It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

okay so why is this post still up & account still existing? actual question. the account isn’t even verified like some of the other fed gov accounts either, but also it shouldn’t matter when they post “we will kill you” along with videos of them killing people.

The answer is always: it's okay when Republicans do it. About everything, everywhere. Bluesky leadership is gutless beyond belief.

The first time we met Charlie Brown, exactly 10 years and one day before we lost him, November 11, 2015, with baby Ludo. Look at that handsome brick of a cat and such a good dad.

Business Cat has finished another busy week of making deals and producing deliverables (i.e., scratching the chair and pining for a gray feral cat at the window)

This is Fuji, who left us a year ago. He was *my* cat, the only cat we've ever had who really bonded to me. He'd sit on my lap and loudly purr every night during TV time. He became a part of my life like no other cat I ever had. I miss him every single day.
