tapping the "please support billionaire free, worker run, reader supported news" holiday edition
Corporate-owned outlets that answer to billionaires are increasingly showing they’re not built for this moment. Independent media is filling the gaps and building something new.

Help us keep building for another year with a gift subscription to one of these awesome outlets:

Just get a hobby, folks. Just one. you just need one.
I would have blocked you for that comment, too. I have only not blocked you now because I am serving as Krista's anger translator. Please develop at least one (1) other social media interest or hobby other than posting about US politics and at least one (1) additional frame of reference.

If you live in Northwest Oregon or Southwest Washington, you may want to clean your gutters and clear out your storm drains this weekend.

The National Weather Service predicts heavy rain will arrive in the region starting Monday, which could lead to flooding.

It drives me nuts when people label my work as the "respectable" kind of queer art just because it's basically PG-13.

Bitch don't pull that nonsense, we stand up for porn in this house. Always defend the weird, ugly, uncomfortable, and cringe, because if we don't push boundaries we don't exist.
The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Anyone here with political aspirations, please take note. We live in an era, policy-wise where there is such a dearth of humanity that if you simply allow basic fundamental baby-brained levels of human decency to guide your policy it’s like 99% certain you’ll be goddamn Superman to the average voter
NEW: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Thursday he will not continue sweeps of homeless encampments — which city data shows have not yielded any permanent or supportive-housing referrals in more than a year.

“I trust my immune system. I don’t need a vaccine.”

Ok, I trust mine to protect me too. Which is why I trained it extensively on what the virus looks like so it can handle it.

A famous guy I was a fan of sent an email during the pandemic just being like "hey I like your show, great job" and it meant a ton to me. So ever since I've tried to reach out whenever I really like something and just tell the people who made it "I really like this, thanks for making it!"
I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

99% of complaints about things being better in the past boil down to "you miss not having adult responsibilities". The other 1% is that everything is manufactured to break after two years now.
Because you're an adult you fucking muppet. You gotta pay the magic forward.
