I don’t want to be more efficient. I don’t want to get faster.
I want to be deeper, more authentic. I want to be strikingly me. I want people to have shivers when they look at my art. Even if it takes time, I want me to enjoy the process and people to wait eagerly for my art and feel amazing

The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

(TW: GROSS) Today in "Adventures in Suburban Wildlife" I had to dispose of half of a dead squirrel that was in my yard. My assumption is that the local fox and/or raptor population dealt with the other half. This was an adult grey squirrel, fattened for winter, so prob not the neighbor's feral cat.

"the USPS is a miracle. it's in the constitution. for the price of a single stamp you can send a letter across the country, from Hawaii to Maine. Trump is trying to take that away from you. He's attacking Christmas cards and wedding invitations. It's un-American and it has to stop."

"The priest at a Catholic church in Dedham on Wednesday defended his parish’s decision to replace nativity figurines of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph with a sign reading “ICE was here,” saying the gospel is clear about treating immigrants with respect." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/03/m...
Dedham church displays ‘ICE was here’ sign at nativity scene without Jesus, Mary, and Joseph - The Boston Globe
“You feed the hungry, you take care of the homeless ... you take care of people and their needs,” said Father Stephen Josoma. “[ICE raids] are the complete antithesis of that on so many levels.”

I ordered something this morning and I have already received four automated emails about it. It hasn't even shipped yet. This seems excessive.

I used to play backgammon with my dad, often enough that I wrote an essay about it in high school. Now I want someone to give me backgammon set for Christmas. Alas, even if I had a backgammon set I'd have no one to play it with.
"Your pattern of reluctance cannot hold; the dam will break at some point. Every year, you read 'backgammon set' as one of my lovely gift suggestions, and every year you scroll right past it as if you know better than me. Let’s be clear: you don’t."

Currently dorking out over this graph about child mortality with my brother. Just mind boggling to take in.

World AIDS Day matters — even if the Trump administration refuses to recognize it. We honor the lives lost, stand with those living with HIV/AIDS, and renew our fight to end this epidemic.

U.S., Trump administration won't commemorate World AIDS Day this year
The U.S. will not commemorate World AIDS Day this year. This action, along with recent federal funding cuts, could contribute to a resurgence of HIV/AIDS.

Both things are true, the essay is terrible and the professor is being targeted as part of a larger campaign against trans people. Only one of these is really important right now.
a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit
