Fun thing I discovered today. My sweatshirt is sooooo dark black that the automatic toilets cannot tell when I'm still sitting. So much flushing.

If you go into work on a weekend and don't post about it publicly, does it even count? (Can't risk it.) @wonderschwermin.bsky.social I'm currently telling subs how to fix their OS docs and to remove OFFICE SUPPLIES from their budget. Seriously.

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

Abolish ICE AND Defund the Police. Both are agents of bigotry that get too much money that could better be spent on anything else.

A basic organizer for your desk designed to hold a bullet journal or planner (5.5x8 or 6x9 fit best, but larger notebooks will probably work as well!) 

It has a slot in the back for a journal, four containers for pens and markers, a smaller slot designed for stickers, postcards, or sticky notes, and three cubbies in the front that can fit paperclips, washi tape, stickers, or anything small you need to keep organized!

Good morning! 18 days left until surgery, so we're back to Sell All the Things so Bree has to close the shop and actually take time off to heal. (Ugh sounds terrible tbh, but here we are.)

We have 8 different colors of journal/planner stand back in stock today!

Escaping harm is not the same thing as opposing it. Members of oppressed groups often side with oppressors because they have not internalized the lesson that solidarity among the vulnerable builds and consolidates power that can protect them, but that personal proximity to existing power will.

Too bad there's no opposition party that could run a 48 hour Youtube telethon program with 48 elected officials each programming one hour to point out the awfulness of the war on Iran. That would definitely not get any media or other attention.

A reminder that you can always turn down media requests! And you can use that refusal to, ah, add some editorial commentary. Also printing your refusal gets out ahead of publications who might present it disingenuously in an article in the hopes of making you look bad.
