Insane to me that the UK government is slowly trying to legislate trans people out of existence and I have not seen a single person talk about it

This is the second time in my voting history that I’ve participated in flipping a red seat in Alabama for Democrats (the previous time being my beloved Doug Jones) so it’s always funny to see people turn around and say voting doesn’t matter when I’ve seen it twice in the past ten years flip seats in what is supposed to be safe Republican country. Republicans are digging their own grave with their radicalization and it is making them lose (and with your help we can make them lose harder). Vote.

Every piece of dogshit art makes the world a better place to live. Better to create poorly than not at all.

Rapper Macklemore is releasing a track called “Hind’s Hall”, speaking out on the genocide of Palestinians, and the United States complacency in this ongoing violence. Macklemore has stated that once the track drops on streaming, all proceeds from streams will be going directly to UNRWA— the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the Near East.
The new tracks namesake Hind’s Hall echoes the honours that Columbia University encampment protestors bestowed the Morningside Heights campus’ Hamilton Hall— in memory of Hind Rajab, the 6 year old Palestinian girl in Gaza who was shot by Israeli soldiers after being trapped inside a vehicle, with her dead family. She had begged to be rescued as tanks closed in on her.
Macklemore using his platform to vehemently speak out against genocide, the Israeli occupation and United States-led violence is what every single artist should be doing right now. The power of art should not be underestimated. Macklemore started out in the Hip-Hop scene within communist circles, namely working alongside Blue Scholars, and has never neglected his Leftism through out his career: the artist has spoken on issues regarding mental health, addiction, racial profiling and police violence, Capitalism, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights and toxicity of American culture.
“The Nakba never ended, the colonizer lied” Hind’s Hall, Macklemore, 2024

I'm gunna need glasses soon because my far sight and astigmatism (that's what a friend told me its called when you see the rings and rays around light sources) is getting really bad. It's not awful yet and I've still got a little pride left to be decimated in whatever fall comes but also everyday when I drive home from work and the lights come on in the city automatically there's a spot where they all kind of coalesce into 1, singular painting-like scene. There's just something so beautiful about it. And I know it's KFC signs and dentists offices and microcenters and convention halls but in that moment I forget that and I see, maybe to my own detriment, something absolutely stunning in the same way a sunrise or a mountain top is stunning.
I dunno, but I like it.

Adult life is full of so many filters you need to change out. You’re probably forgetting to change out a filter right now.

I came home looking for food because life is stressful and money is tight and after engaging in the necessary sacrificial game of "let's pretend we're a functional family" my mom said I could have anything I found in the basement fridge/freezer combo. So here's what I found down there
- Beer
- Champagne
- A diet mountain dew 2 liter with approximately 2 mouthfuls in it. Very flat.
- Boxes labeled "fragile", unopened
- Somehow more beer behind the boxes.
- One (1) box of frozen cinnamon apples.
- Frozen artisanal dogfood

The Truth of Mankind…
…Is Also Dream’s
These quotes are from episode 5 (24/7):
“Garry dreams of proving his father he was wrong about him.”
“Kate dreams of running away where no one will find her.”
[But you do, and we see your star in so many panels of The Wake 🥺]
“Bette dreams of creating something that matters to people.”
You are the magician who became the man, Morpheus. And you are the king who left his kingdom, but not without making sure everyone else would be okay first--perhaps that is a different definition of a graceful ending, but it is graceful nonetheless.
You’re so painfully human, and yet, you are also not 😭
