Hot/Crazy matrix - make it wangxian
I am very confident in my placement of Wei Wuxian (esp yllz wwx). Do you agree with where I placed Lan Wangji?

I have to travel for work tomorrow and i reeeaally don't like getting on planes anymore. Between the fact that we have things like the plague back again (yay anti-science ppl), issues with air traffic control, software updates, & random arrests in airports, it is not my first choice. Or 65th choice.

uggghhh I am so tired of religious dogma and anti-science idiots and greedy oligarchs fucking everything up. Like... we tried that in the Dark Ages. No need to re-run the experiment!

The world is so exhausting.

Conservative commentator Brian Griffiths on Turning Point USA's religious-discrimination claim against the University of Oklahoma: "if you read Fulnecky’s essay, you will see that...the essay is really pathetic and bad. Nor did it meet the basic instructions set out for the assignment."
Becoming What They Hate
For years, professional conservatives bemoaned the "special treatment" they alleged "unqualified" liberals received on campus. Now, they demand it for students on the right.

I need a new perfume but I'm super sensitive to scents. So I went scent shopping yesterday after some friends/relatives gave me some advice on things to try. 2 of them smelled great on the card, so I sprayed 1 on each wrist to test. One smelled chokingly bad on my skin and the other I loved.

Update: my laptop is dead. RIP. Luckily, it is sale season here in the US and I had already ordered a new one which is arriving tomorrow. I was so close to finishing the next chapter of (Re)making history, but I suck at editing things on my phone 😅
nooo!! My laptop is dying. About 30% of the time the screen flickers like a strobe light then goes black for like 10 seconds before coming back to life. Last time this happened it went that way for ~2 weeks before completely dying. Fingers crossed there are good sales in the next couple of days.

@auntieiroh.bsky.social was the first podfic'er that I listened to (she is fabulous!), and I will be eternally grateful to her for introducing me to podfics!

I hadn't appreciated how interesting it would be to hear someone else's version of a story, how they interpreted tone and mood. It's so fun!

First thing I did this morning was disable the "smart features" in my gmail accounts since I have no interest in letting my personal emails train Google's AI.

Now I guess I need to find another email service, which will be annoying but is probably overdue.

Fuck these guys

“Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], ‘you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”
As ICE Street Raids Ramp Up, New Yorkers Stock Up On Whistles
Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks — a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

Yep. This is what i was talking about. It was normalized from the top down, and institutionalized in our courts and police.

Any woman who's called the cops due to a domestic violence or sexual assault knows how this plays out. And it's even worse if it makes it to court.

Fuck all of these guys

Sending hugs and strength to any of my readers who are also victims of rape/sexual assault, whether as a child or adult. The news is really tough right now.

I've been having nightmares that I haven't had in years.

But we're not alone. Please talk to someone if you need help.

uuggghh... when you're reading a fic and then realize you missed a very important tag within the long list and it is one that you Did Not Want.

And it is 100% my fault bc the author totally tagged it 😅🫠

I really hope that one of the things that comes out of the absolute cluster-fuck of a country I live in right now is that this whole "anti-intelligent people" attitude in my country gets crushed.

Can we not see that it DOES NOT WORK TO PUT STUPID PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF THINGS????

There needs to be legislation that companies where the top executive compensation cant be more than 10x what the median employee compensation is, or they are subject to tax penalties.

I'm so tired of the general public paying for corporate tax breaks that funnel wealth to the rich.

Yeah, fuck James Watson. One of the (many) men who made his fame off the backs of brilliant women.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
