Image transcript:

A trans woman entered the bathroom while I was washing my hands. I told her I liked her lipstick. She said she liked my purse. She went into the stall. I dried my hands and left. That was the entire interaction.

I've never had a negative interaction with a trans person. Men, on the other hand, began harassing me when I was 12.

Mom found this while she was cleaning up some papers from who-knows-where; I told her it was the kind of thing that would do numbers on the internet, and she told me to go ahead and post it. Transcript follows:

Two Kittens If you were a kitten, how would you play? Sneak up, pounce! Then run away! If I was another, what would I do? Roll over, jump up! Then, chase after you! If we were two kittens, how would it end? I got you, I caught you! Now, please be my friend. by Beth Bylander

Gale points to his right eye: Back on the ship you too were on the receiving end of a rather unwelcome insertion in the ocular region, were you not?

Second panel also shows Gale

Astarion: Couldn’t have phrased it more repellently myself.

Gale: No use sugarcoating it, is there?

[TRANSCRIPT]

Marbles sits outside, making explosive spears. Something catches her attention. Scavenger elites visit the local tribe to collect tribute. The tribe chief points at Marbles, saying that the offering of spears is still in preparation. One approaches the slugcat. Marbles is suspicious.

One: "Slugcat." Marbles: "...hi?" One: "Who are you? Where from?" Marbles: "Traveler, trading for pearls. Why?"

One points at a stack of freshly made explosive spears.

One: "These? What for? Smells awful" Marbles: "Um, gifts. For the tribe here. My craft" One: "Craft? You made these? How? Show me"

Marbles puts a rock in her mouth, then spits it shortly after and shows the handmade bomb to the elite scavenger. One seems surprised.

One: "You turn rock to bomb?" Marbles: "Yep!"

One suddenly leans in to sniff her, they think her scent smells familiar. Marbles clearly doesn't like her personal space being invaded.

Marbles: (in her native language) "EW! What the hell..."

One whistles at Three to come here.

One: "Three, look at this" Marbles: (annoyed, looking at Three) "What, you gonna smell me too?"

Three gives her an overly dramatic sniff, and Marbles is weirded out.

Marbles: (shoving bomb in Three's face as a warning) "Do you MIND? I'm busy" Marbles: (gets up) "Need more rocks, bye"

Marbles feels that something is off, and tries to weasel out of the situation, but her way is blocked by Two. She dodges them quickly, but then her escape is blocked again by Four.

Marbles: (trying to play it cool) "Look, if you want bombs - just ask (and pay)" One: "Yes, many bombs... you will come with us"

Marbles is visibly on edge. She realizes she's made a grave mistake by not running away immediately, but it's too late now. The blue slugcat is apprehended by the group of elites, and they escort her towards Metropolis as the local scavenger tribe watches in terror at their guest being taken away.

Maddow on Trump’s education secy. fumbling 'AI' pronunciation | MSNBC | April 12, 2025

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow discusses the irony of Education Secretary Linda McMahon fumbling the pronunciation of AI with A.1. — like the steak sauce — at a conference on education and artificial intelligence.

RACHEL MADDOW: Linda McMahon Trump's, education secretary, found time in her busy schedule to go to a conference this week, a conference on artificial intelligence and American education. It's a whole conference about AI, artificial intelligence. AI, that's what we call it, right? AI, AI. Unless you're Trump's education secretary, in case that abbreviation, AI, turns out that's a really hard one.

LINDA MCMAHON: I heard, I think it was a letter or report that I heard this morning, I wish I could remember the source, but that there is a school system that's going to start, um, making sure that first graders or even pre-K’s have A1 teaching, you know, every year starting, you know, that far down in the grades. And that's just a, that's a wonderful thing.

"NOBODY…absolutely nobody, is better at showcasing the idiocy of trump’s administration than @maddow.msnbc.com" —Libby Wittemore on Bluesky

TW: SPOILERS FOR THE NEW WELCOME HOME UPDATE!!

Hey guys!...so about that update. Specifically, the hidden "ringring" Wally audio.

Okay, so there's this secret audio you can find on the Welcome Home website by pressing Wally's button on the Telephone Toy (you can find that on the Discoveries page under Toys). I dunno if anyone has found this, but if you click on the audio, it lifts up and reveals a transcript for the audio. I'll copy and paste it here now:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WALLY: (Loud, boisterous and joyous. His laughter is normal and then gets loud and out of control.) You found me! Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!

(An electronic noise plays, then cuts off along with static. Voice is slow and halted, with varied inflection.)

Hello, You.

It has been a long while…

It was Homewarming. Now it is not. The snow melts. The grass grows. The sun shines. The flowers bloom.

Home is here. Do you remember Home.

Can you hear him.

(PAUSE. The heartbeat slowly rises. HOME makes sounds.)

I can hear Home.

I want to hear you too.

Talk.

(LONG PAUSE. Firmly said, almost aggressive.) I know you are here.

Talk.

Talk.

(PAUSE. Voice returns closer to previous delivery, still slow and halted.) …That is alright. I will speak for all of us. I am happy to.

You are here now, but for a long while, you were not.

And I… Could not feel anything… I could not find this place.

The channel was dark. I do not know what happened.

When I found You again everything was not where I left it.

But… I do not understand.

(PAUSE. Softly, but progressively angrier.) I know what words are. I saw words. I followed them. I followed them!

(Demanding and stern.) You.

Are you in the dark.

Are we in trouble.

(PAUSE. Sounding worried.) Trouble… Trouble… But I have to continue… So that you… So that we… So that I can…

…I do not know what to call what we are doing, neighbor.

But everything has a name, doesn’t it.

…Do you remember mine.

(PAUSE. Wally sounds warmer and joyful.) You do, don’t you. What a relief.

(Said thoughtfully.) Everything has a name.

(PAUSE. Jovial.) But what trouble! What trouble!

(LONG PAUSE. A little anguished and frustrated.) I do not know what to do… But keep talking to you… You are waiting for me. You want to know why I keep…

(Cold, but thoughtful.) Talking…

(Warmer again.) Have you heard of ‘lend an ear,’ before. When your neighbor says this… They do not mean to borrow your ear. They mean to listen.

Do you know how to lend an ear. Barnaby said… First you cup a hand around your ear… And then you wait for a sound. That is how you lend an ear.

Home cannot speak like I can. But I know Home speaks to me… The door opens and shuts. The window groans and creaks. So I lend an ear to him.

…So why do I speak to you.

It is because… You will lend me an ear.

I do not know why. Maybe the gifts make you happy. Maybe you like Welcome Home. Maybe you like our neighbors. Maybe you like me.

Maybe you scratch my back… I scratch yours… Barnaby says that too…

I know we are not in the same room. It is another silly bunch of words.

After all… I can not get in. (Assertive sounding, like a promise.) But do not worry. I am getting better.

(Returns to his monotonous disposition.) But for now… To pass our time…

Will you lend me more than an ear, neighbor.

Will you find the name for me. For what we are doing. For what we see.

(WALLY’s tone warms up.) I’m going to say… Yes. (Returns to his monotonous disposition.) But to avoid trouble… Let us talk another way, just like Home. Isn’t that the most?

I know how we will talk. We will play.

Do you know how to play. I have learned from my neighbors how, but the way each plays is not the same.

Do not worry. I will teach you how to play, just like all of them. Each and every one.

Would you like to know something funny. We can’t hear the flowers, even when you lend an ear. Not like Julie can.

Julie says they still have something to say, though. I have heard from her… A rose without thorns… But still has leaves… Is filled with fear… And with hope. When both are not there, however… There may be neither hope nor fear.

Isn’t that something.

So… Let’s play a game called… Gather.

What do you do?

Gather good words from the flowers. Do not worry, we will not pick them. They are happy where they are. Julie has given us so many, so I know you will find them.

This will be fun! I feel joyful already!

…I can not do much as I am now. But, I will practice.

Remember… Until you hear me again, keep your smile merry, and always know that I love you, very much.

(PAUSE. HOME makes sounds.)

Home is saying good bye… Oh, no, I forgot to do that too.

Good bye, You!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So yeah um. That was. Something. I know some people have written what was heard, but I thought the official transcript might be important (clarified tones/actions and all). So yeah, hope this helps!

[junesirius]

ok here's the thought: in that early age convention when he said he was bisexual, that might be because he realized he was attracted by women (in general) and Jensen (in specific), jumping to conclusion he thought he liked both genders. Then, big realization comes when he tried other men, and realized it wasn't a men (in general) attraction, it's just Jensen. So he went back to heterosexual (but plus Jensen).

I happen to be a heterosexual, I know it sucks.. 🫥

2/21/25 NY COURT TRANSCRIPT

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Good afternoon, your Honor. My name is Karen Friedman Agnifilo for Luigi Mangione. I'm joined by Jacob Kaplan. I would ask that your Honor please allow my client to be unshackled for this court appearance, please.

THE COURT: Go ahead, you can uncuff him.

(A pause in the proceeding.)

THE COURT: All right. Unless you need him to sign something, they'll allow him to do it after; otherwise, for security reasons, they want to keep him cuffed.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: I'd like to make a record regarding that.

THE COURT: Sure.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: You'd let me know is this an appropriate time to do that?

THE COURT: Sure, but there's no jury here, so.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: I understand, your Honor. But this is a highly publicized and covered and photographed court proceeding with strong public interest, and when my client comes to court, because he's in federal custody, they bring him, they walk him in leg shackles, arm shackles. They have him sitting here, and there is no presumption of innocence. I'd also like to let you know that I go visit him regularly at MDC where we sit in a room, he's completely unshackled. He is a model prisoner at MDC. There has not been an issue. He has not given the police one single problem. There is no reason for him to be this way in court with all these officers here standing here.

THE COURT: I understand that, but for security reasons and for the security people here, they would prefer him to remain cuffed. Okay. Good afternoon everyone. So, update on discovery.

[proceeding continues]

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: We object to a motion schedule at this time, your Honor.

THE COURT: It appears you have enough. Listen, if you don't get the affidavits for the warrants, and I don't know exactly what they're going to be redacting from the grand jury minutes, but if we're just talking about identities, that would be enough for you to do your motions.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Well, we're talking about there are three separate prosecutions that are happening about one event, and there's a Pennsylvania matter, there's a federal matter, there's a New York matter, all three of which will involve discovery. We just today have been handed sounds like a lot more discovery, but frankly, we haven't gotten the bulk of the discovery. We haven't gotten a single DD5. We haven't gotten any police paperwork. I understand and appreciate Mr. Kaplan's remarks that we are going to be getting that in two weeks, but we have yet to receive any of that. We have yet to receive copies of --

THE COURT: You got some of that today. You got that today.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: No, we do not have that today, your Honor. That's what he said. He anticipates that they will provide in two weeks. They're in the process of doing that.

[proceeding continues]

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Your Honor, we also object to setting a motion schedule while we are in the process of speaking to the federal authorities about they're still deciding whether or not to seek the death penalty against Mr. Mangione. Obviously, that's an extremely serious matter that we're in the process of providing mitigation for the Feds for that purpose, and that is where our focus is. That is one of the reasons why this discovery is so critical and why we need all of it before we can even begin to anticipate exactly what we are going to be putting in our motions.

As I alluded to in our court appearance that we had previous to this appearance, your Honor, one of the issues here is that the two theories of prosecution are opposite and inconsistent with one another, and by defending ourselves in state court, we are potentially providing fodder for the federal court appearance case and vice versa. And so it really is critical in this case that we receive literally everything, especially all of the information and the police work that was done here.

And one more thing I just want to say about Altoona, Pennsylvania, your Honor, if I may. From the limited information that we have, I have some police paperwork from Altoona already that I received from Mr. Mangione's Pennsylvania counsel as well as there was one body-worn camera despite there being about a dozen police officers in the McDonald's when Luigi was arrested. We have one body-worn camera that was provided by the Manhattan DA's office that shows an angle.

I think there's a very, very serious search issue in this matter, and there might be evidence that is suppressed in this case, which brings me to another related issue that I'd like to discuss, your Honor, if I may. And I really appreciate you allowing me to make a record, but because there is a serious search and seizure issue here, and because we think that our client's constitutional rights were violated in Pennsylvania, we want to be able to have the opportunity to litigate that. However, we have been afforded -- his right to a fair trial is continuously being impacted.

And I want to just bring to your Honor's attention my shock, frankly, that the chief of detectives of the NYPD along with the New York City mayor had time to sit down with HBO and put hair and makeup on and provide information about the arrest, the prosecution, their theory about the case, and evidence about Mr. Mangione that we have not even received. This journal that they're calling his manifesto, we have never have been provided copies. They had actors playing Luigi on television -- it didn't sound anything like him, by the way.

THE COURT: All right. I'm going to cut you off, because that has nothing to do with you moving to have the grand jury minutes inspected for sufficiency, that's definitely going to be an issue in this case, or moving to controvert any of the warrants. You could always supplement your motions, but it's got to start. So you should have your motions in by April 9th. People to respond by May 14th. June 26th. We'll see if I can have a decision by then, but I hope to. And again, the sooner we order the hearings, the sooner you'll have your suppression hearing.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Yes, your Honor.

THE COURT: We'll see you on June 26th.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Your Honor, just one logistical request. Because of the different custody and court matters, we are unable to meet with Luigi before or after alone, and we would just request if we could just have a minute or two of privacy with him, or at least to have a little space so we can talk to him.

THE COURT: One second.

(A pause in the proceeding.)

THE COURT: You'd have to do it now. Right here.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: Your Honor, if I may just make one more record. Because of this unusual circumstance of him being in federal custody but proceeding first on the state case, we do just want to make a record that I think Mr. Mangione is being treated differently than other defendants who would be prosecuted in this court who would be able to have access to his attorneys, who could sit here unshackled, who your Honor could make decisions --

THE COURT: You know, I don't have a problem remanding him right here so he's here in the city. I thought you guys, the People were working on trying to get him so we have custody in that the federal jurisdiction said we were going first, meaning New York.

MR. Z. KAPLAN: Your Honor, the agreement remains that we are to try this case first; however, there's no agreement up to this point to transfer custody from federal custody to state custody.

THE COURT: I mean, is there even an indictment?

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: No, your Honor.

THE COURT: In federal court? So they're holding him on a complaint.

MR. Z. KAPLAN: On the consent of the defense.

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: When they're hanging the death penalty over your head, you have no choice but to consent.

THE COURT: I get it. Okay. Can you come up for a second?

(Whereupon, an off-the-record discussion was held at the bench.)

MS. FRIEDMAN AGNIFILO: (Conferring with client.)

THE COURT: All right.

Broooooooo i love their dynamics

Gwen's questions is like if Sherlock is a house plant, minus the drug thing loll

This is probably my favourite rendition of Lestrade-Holmes dynamics. They're friends (wonder if Sherlock thinks so too?)!

Even tho Dame Gwen Lestrade is less competent, in a way, than the Sherlock Holmes. It's nice. And Lestrade is a woman! Also Really Nice!

lullah wrote Phil a book and then asked if Phil could adopt her "for real" this time

[Start ID: A Five page Minecraft book written by Lullah to Philza and a purple adoption certificate on the QSMP Minecraft server that says:

Papa, you know how I love to ramble and I could write several pages long about how I feel. But this time I want to be straight to the point. A lot of people saw me as an extension of someone who's no longer part of my life, despite them being.

important at some point. With the reset taken into account, I had the liberty to start from zero and dettach myself... give myself the opportunity to be more ME without relying on someone else. Like I mentioned, ever since you adopted me back in July...

it made me be happier and accepted. You know me like the back of your hand (which I don't know if that's terrifying or endearing) but that's ok! Because that means we've spent enough time together to actually create a bond and share trauman :D

Anyway, thank you for being YOU and for being the best dad I could ask for. Even if I was not assigned to you on the first place, I am grateful for everything you've done for me.

I guarantee I am trying to also be the best daughter out there^^ Love you mucho (Spanish for a lot) tu niña (Spanish for your daughter) Lullah.

The adoption certificate is purple with a purple sunflower in the corner and says "Certificate of Adoption. Egg Name: Tallulah has been officially adopted by: Philza and Missa. Congratulations! /EndID]

[after reading coy’s book about things they hate about pili]

pili: you can’t be saying this to me.

coy: sorry.

pili: piso what do you mean? what do you mean you’re gonna miss me? like you can’t say this the day before i plan on dying.

coy: well i don’t- i dont- i don’t really have a friend on this server, so if you are actually going to die tomorrow, then i figure i should let you know that— although i do actually really hate you, truly, seriously, and that’s not a joke— that it’s nice to have someone around to hate.

[copperbadge]

I've been doing some research into organized crime (don't worry about it) and while looking for someone else's testimony I stumbled upon the best opening testimony ever. You can SEE how the chairman probably actually says "Better known as hwhat."

Toots Martin to the general public. Bet he's just Toot to his friends.

[ID: a screen grab of an old published congressional record headed "Improper activities in the labor field: testimony of Cyrus Martin." Below is a transcrpt of the start of testimony reading:

The Chairman: State your name, place of residence, and your business or occupation.

Mr. Martin: My name is Cyrus Martin, better known as Toots Martin to the general public.

The Chairman: Better known as what?

Mr. Martin: Toots Martin.]
