I'm just a girl, standing in front of her government, asking for as much bodily autonomy as a corpse. (She/Her) Also, I write novels and make art and stuff: https://linktr.ee/ohfaerienuff

I live in a rich neighborhood, and everyone knows to come here for the good trick-or-treating. But because I'm poor, I'll be giving out Pokémon stickers on Halloween while dressed as Pikachu. I hope the kids appreciate them. It's all I could afford 400 of.

I feel like I’m living in some weird fucking Beckett play or a dystopian sequel to Being There where the president of the United States is just increasingly obviously a porridge-brained mental patient and everyone nods and smiles like it’s normal.

Trump: I love the meat! Ahhhh! I love it, look! *gestures*

Someone being trans has never affected you. Men aren't transitioning to compete in women's sports; there's more money in men's sports. Men aren't transitioning to rape women; they can just join a fraternity. Nobody cares what gender your kid is; we just want them to be vaccinated and go to school.

Just like news about caravans heading to the border all but disappeared after one election, I hope the bullshit about "transing your kids" will disappear in November, but I fear our society has latched onto that one scapegoat too hard.

The women in your life are angry, and the few who aren't are deeply stupid. We're tired of not being listened to, and we're sick of men getting away with it. With what? With whatever you just thought of. Stop dismissing our concerns and start putting us in charge of more stuff. We can handle it.

If a gubernatorial candidate is promising to lower your property taxes, they're lying. Those are levied by your town or city. The state does income and sometimes sales taxes.

As recently as last month, the Alt National Park Service was amplifying election misinformation. For god's sake, don't trust them. They're just click farmers.

AltWatcher@altwatcher.bsky.social

Extremely interesting piece from @cip.uw.edu at the University of Washington. Long story short, they identify the Alt National Park Service as a key amplifier of conspiratorial misinformation about a "mail dumping" news story last month.

As we approach the midterms, remember that the Alt National Park Service is a merch sales operation claiming without evidence to be a group of federal employees, and is not a genuine source of news about elections of any kind. Please get your election info from a local, reputable source.

It's "not all men" until your daughter starts to date. It's "not all men" until your girlfriend hangs out with another guy. It's "not all men" until a man wants to teach kindergarten. You say "not all men", but you don't trust each other; why should we trust you?

I won't be voting this Election Day, because I already did! Get out and vote early if you can. There might be some very long lines on November 3rd.

Carville spoke at my college graduation in 2002. We were supposed to get George Stephanopoulos, but he canceled last minute. When I went on stage and was supposed to shake Carville's hand, I ignored him and went to hug my favorite professor instead. I hated him before it was cool.

"I would rather have the Republicans keep the house." - James Carville

Just finally saw the Ohio anti-socialism ad, and it was so over-the-top I thought it was a parody. Republicans really are afraid of things that don't exist.

Now is the time to care about everyone, not “once we win” The time to care about everyone is always always always now

In 1997, I worked for a sketchy telemarketer selling (probably scam) HVAC in Austin, TX for 3 weeks, paid weekly. My first check bounced, and when I complained and quit, they refused to pay me for the 3rd week.

BREAKING NYT: Trump's new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, was fired Friday, after less than a week on the job, according to three people familiar with the matter.

You're not trading; you're gambling. Polymarket, Kashi, DraftKings, FanDuel, and the rest of the betting apps aren't the stock market. Calling it trading is as much of an insult to our intelligence as expecting us to bet on the price of gas, and the really sad thing is how many people still do it.

I saw an Instagram post last night about how to get rid of ai on your Android phone, and most of the instructions were incorrect. People asked in the comments how to do it correctly, and the poster said to ask ChatGPT. We're not gonna make it, are we? Humans, I mean.

Mine was at times accurate, but also hilarious. How do they know I've never been to Chicago? Why does that matter? Of all the cities I've never been to, is that the one I've not been to the most? And yes, I'm a slow reader, but you don't need to point that out. That's rude af.

Amazon users are discovering a bizarre "About You" page that reveals what the company thinks it knows about them One woman found Amazon had determined she "has flat buttocks"

I just figured out how they know this! I said in a book review that while I've never been to Chicago the author described it so well I felt like I had. And I guess amazon thought I could've gotten through that book a little faster. So judgy.

All of the (relatively minor) buzz around Avengers: Doomsday feels forced and extremely fake, but we were out Wednesday night and a commercial for VisionQuest came on, and people were audibly excited about that. The TV shows have been better than the movies for a while.

If you put an element into a dystopian novel where people could bet on literally anything, including political decisions, and the people making those decisions also bet on them, making huge amounts of money, it would be too unrealistic, too corrupt, and yet... Anyway, outlaw Polymarket, Kalshi, etc.

I'm watching a hockey game, and the amount of sports betting advertised is disgusting. A character losing all his money to a bookie used to be an easy way for a narrative to show he was a worthless bum. Now it's a normal thing happening to guys (you know it's mostly guys) all over the U.S.

I tried to read this, and it's just word salad. This man is not well.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

From the number of useless petitions I get asked to sign on a daily basis, I worry that when/if Democrats take over they're not going to hold companies accountable but might just ask them to please stop being evil.

I got a layered lip balm that's strawberry cheesecake, and the top layer just tastes like strawberries, so I'm nervous the bottom layer will taste like cheese.
