So I had a delightfully absurd moment trying to parse it lmao

Iwao Takamoto was one of the Disney greats. Films like Sleeping Beauty owe a lot to his meticulous lines.

The studio was a kind of home for him -- it was a big change. Just before, he'd been in the camps. We explore the story:

"Then we added normal lab results,
Ramaswamy said. "Same patient, same
words, same severity. The banner vanished. Zero out of 16 attempts. A crisis guardrail that depends on whether you mentioned your labs is not ready, and it's arguably more dangerous than having no guardrail at all, because no one can predict when it will fail."

'When the World Burns Quietly'

Not every ruin is visible.
Not every flame makes noise.
In the silence of destruction,
She lets the dark be mercy.

please to not give in to despair. if you want to start somewhere you can help, a donation to Doctors Without Borders is a great place to start

You probably can’t personally stop the war in Iran today. Is there something you can do for your neighbors hiding from ice? For a trans person in Kansas? Any local aid orgs or rapid response networks? Phone banks? Anyone already doing good shit that just needs a hand?

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

The least human thing you can do I read a story just now about a man in Chicago who saved a baby after its carriage had been blown into the harbor by heavy gusts of wind. Lio Cundiff – who is a trans man not that it should matter her...

Expecting us – with good reason based on history – to all thank them for their service. Fuck your service and fuck you.

Saving a life is brave. Being instructed to kill and saying no I will not do that is brave. But killing like this? It is the least human thing you can do.

The only thing it feels worthwhile for me to say right now is pay attention to whether your feelings & the information you’re absorbing are paralyzing you or prompting you to meaningful action, whatever that is. Paralysis helps no one but the enemy.

Ok I'm no longer counting and sharing donos, but by my count, we raised $45,044.39 yesterday for red state queer organizations.

Thank you everybody!

Time to Fight: H.R. 7661 Call To Action

Art matters. And what do we do with things that matter? We protect them.

Here is information about H.R. 7661, a US book banning bill that explicitly targets books about trans people, and what you can do right now to help stop it.

Yeah I'd read that it wasn't censored because the bbc "doesn't censor tics to avoid stigma." Finding out that there were other tics that didn't make the broadcast but for some reason *that* one did, & that Davidson was under the impression they would be censored, really puts it in a different light.

Man the ram shortage thing is so funny to me, dudes are so all in on trying to build software that they haven’t figured out how to make money on yet that they forgot people need to be able to buy computers to even be able to use it

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes β€œI love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

I urge you to stop what you're doing and watch Alysa Liu's free skate from yesterday. I have never seen anything like this. I understand why sports writers are born now. I have never seen anyone as free from the burdens of this world as this pierced Oakland girl spinning to Donna Summers.

I love it too, they have so many different inspirations and just keep making music that interests them. AFI is one of my truly beloved bands. Even if my own music doesn't sound much like theirs, they're a direct inspiration for me as far as trying new creative things and enjoying the process.
