Whatever it is you followed me for... you are getting a lot of random other stuff too. Things I like: monsters -Pacific Rim--Good Omens-- animals (especially hyenas)-stupid horror movies where people are eaten--- personal stuff is mostly about small town politics and organizing Pride events. Logistics and infrastructure, it's hella gay!She/They -Old enough to remember when the internet made a noise.
Don't wanna be here? Send us removal request.

An anti-immigrant bill HR 875, the co-called "Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act" will be having a floor vote likely on Thursday. The bill is similar to the “Laken Riley Act” and would be devastating to immigrant communities in CT if passed. It would make undocumented immigrants and green card holders who admit to driving impaired subject to mandatory detention and deportation
We need to pressure CT’s federal House Representatives to NOT support this anti-immigrant bill! Offices are not hearing enough opposition to this bill. Email, call, blast House offices today and tomorrow! We cannot let HR 875 become law like the Laken Riley Act did.
Rep Jahana Hayes (CT-5) and Rep Joe Courtney (CT-2) voted YES for the Laken Riley Act. Last year, Rep Jahana Hayes (CT-5), Rep Joe Courtney (CT-2), and Rep Jim Himes (CT-4) all voted YES on a similar bill to HR 875
Rep Jahana Hayes - 5th District - (202) 225-4476 - DC Office Rep Joe Courtney - 2rd District - (202) 225-2076 - DC Office Rep Jim Himes - 4th District - (202) 225-5541 - DC Office
CALL SCRIPT
“Hi, My name is _______, and I am a resident of (city/town) and I am calling to urge Representative _______ to vote NO on HR 875,, the so-called Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act. This is an anti-immigrant bill that will harm immigrant communities and families in CT. It would make both undocumented immigrants and green card holders who admit to driving impaired subject to mandatory detention and deportation. These individuals are our family, our neighbors, friends, teachers. I do not support the passage of this bill, I believe in due process and in keeping families together.
A million arrests for DUI are made every year, and many, many millions more admit to driving impaired. The impact of this bill would be enormous to both undocumented immigrants and green card holders.
In the last few weeks, we’ve seen increased ICE kidnappings in CT, masked ICE agents with military gear descending on our communities. We do not want to give the federal administration another tool to continue terrorizing our communities.
Please vote NO on HR 875”
(Note: a first time DUI in CT without any injury to others is a misdemeaner and is generally dealt with via court ordered counselling for substance abuse. usually only a second offense is treated as a crime.)

That said if anyone was into the Batman fandom circa 1998-2002 and remembers a drama/mystery/angst fic where Robin found out that his dad was infertile and he was conceived via IVF using donor sperm, began to suspect that he was Bruce's biological son (at the same time wondering if he himself could be the father of Stephanie's baby), and later discovered that his bio-father was actually the JOKER, Bruce had known the entire goddamn time, AND Bruce had been the one to arrange for the sperm donor samples to be swapped in the first place in a fucked up "nature vs nurture" experiment...
Please please please PLEASE pass along any links or other details you recall because I am desperate to read it again.
Writer's pen name may have been Jack something? They had a very direct, Hemmingway-esque writing style that was all simple sentences, that blew baby me away. Didn't use quotation marks for dialogue, and included all these small but grimly practical details that really sold the Gothic realism of the story, like Stephanie wearing a dental bridge because she's had some teeth knocked out in a fight.

Her last ref was from 2023, but the lineart essentially was from 2020. It was about time! She really needed a new ref. I hope you like it!
And...
…I could not resist but to make a second, totally cluttered silly version! Enjoy 💜

Dragons and dwarves sharing a symbiotic relationship. Dragons needing large tunnels and treasures, and dwarves already enjoying digging for treasures coming to a mutually beneficial arrangement. The dragons keep the dwarves safe and protected from invaders and in return the dwarves help keep their combined hoardes preserved. Imagine dwarves being the only ones able to ride dragons. They know how to polish swords and dragon scales so beautifully they look like treasures themselves. Dragons lending shed scales to give dwarves fireproof armor. Dwarves maintaining dragon egg chambers and bonding with a dragon from hatching, mutually respecting one another from the start. Dragons calling their personal dwarf rider by a gem name in reference to them being part of their treasure as a form of endearment and respect.

it will not stop the unsolicited dick pics of course but like. you can just ask really nicely and a bunch of shameless men on Grindr will send you pictures of their hairy titties. for FREE. and then you have a collection of fat hairy tit pictures with no downside. its great you should all do this.

I just think everyone should take a moment to consider the question "what is your visual shorthand for cruelty?" and then follow it up with a critical "and who taught you that?"
specific examples include but are not limited to
why is an evil timeline character design disabled? (why do the heroes go through equally punishing battles and never lose an arm, a leg, an eye?)
why are the futuristic scifi terrorists uniformly darker skinned? (why are the heroes so much lighter?)
why is the greedy boss fat? (why are the heroes skinny?)
why is the criminal mastermind heavily scarred? (why is the brooding, traumatized hero unscathed?)
why is the predatory creep a bearded person in a dress and makeup? (why are none of the heroes trans women?)
who taught you that this is how things are?
how long do you plan on repeating it?

I am, like, a long running proponent of the "eat something and you'll feel better" crowd and am often one of the first people to suggest "maybe it's time for a snack before I get whipped into a frenzy" but I really do resent how instantaneous it is. like it'll feel like I'm having my worst day in months and then I'll start eating and literally before I even finish I'm like oh yeah the world is beautiful

Is there a reason why the heat is extra fucked up right now. Allegedly the humidity but I keep checking the weather & it says it's Kinda Normal for my Location this time of year. Did I get worse at regulating my body temperature. What is happening
#feeling BAD#also check your medications don't make it worse#surprising number of things interfere with fluid regulation#ADHD stimulant drugs & thryoid meds both can increase your core temp and make you more likely to overheat

Ugandan entrepreneurs Sandra Namboozo (26) and Samuel Muyita (28) have scooped both the People’s Choice and Community Healers awards at the prestigious 2025 Young Inventors Prize, organised by the European Patent Office (EPO). The duo was recognised for their groundbreaking innovation, Karpolax—a biodegradable sachet that preserves fruit freshness without refrigeration. The invention impressed both the public and an independent jury. The sachet, placed inside fruit packaging, emits a blend of plant-based volatile organic compounds derived from cloves, lemongrass, eucalyptus, and wintergreen. These compounds suppress ethylene emissions to slow ripening and protect against mould, fungi, and bacteria.
In pilot trials conducted with the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO), Karpolax extended the shelf life of mangoes from 11 to 33 days. The technology has also been tested successfully on bananas, apples, and oranges.
The innovation offers a critical solution for smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa, where cold storage facilities are often unavailable or unaffordable.
Since its launch in 2020, Karpolax has supported over 100 farmers, 20 exporters, and 250 vendors, helping prevent the spoilage of more than one million tonnes of fruit. The sachets are now being adapted for use with pineapples, capsicum, and berries.
“One sachet can preserve a five-kilogram box of fruit for up to 30 days, after which its active ingredients are used up,” Namboozo explained.
