I've been living in a hotel since mid-2024, and I've finally found an apartment if I can come up with $2500 up front for the deposit + first month's rent. Any help is appreciated, including sharing this post. #MutualAidRequest #TransCrowdFund

Two scientists walk through a cluttered old-fashioned science laboratory. The female scientist says βAnalogue instruments! Paper records! Chalk boards! I thought you'd agreed to modernise the laboratory?β The male scientist replies βThat's what i'm so excited about: we have moved to cloud-based storage for our data!β They step out onto a balcony. She says: βPlease tell me you haven't built a library zeppelinβ This is exactly what he has done. It floats across the sky and he adds βIt's got a fax machine!β

#Romancelandia can we chip in a bit each to give Julia a bit of a cushion while SNAP gets sorted out? (stress is the worst when trying to recover from injury; a few dollars from each of us would give her immense peace of mind)
FYI, you tend to post close to when I finally stop scrolling. I know when I see the bunny that I need to go to sleep.
Thank you for the lovely bunnies to dream with!

The mechanic removed the back plate and inhaled through pursed lips. "Who did this?"
"I did," the robot said.
"How?"
"I took one arm off, put in a wireless interface so I could still use it, and put it in a vice, then turned-"
"OK. Why?"
"I needed fixing."
"You are allowed to ask for help."

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green is hanging up laundry, while singing Cherubino's aria from the opera The Wedding of Figaro. Blue peeks from behind a bedsheet, startling Green badly enough to prompt Green to shoot straight up through the ceiling. Blue: You sing when you do laundry by yourself? Green: Iaaah! Taken aback, Blue looks apologetically up to the ceiling. Blue: I didn't mean to startle you. Green: It's okay.
The image shows a rectangular Roman dice tower (turricula) made of four copper alloy (bronze) plates with punched cut-out Latin letters and cut-out decorative patterns. At the bottom front is a stepped exit chute with small bronze bells attached to the opening. The tower is a Roman anti-cheating device. It has an open top and is hollow inside except for three staggered, downward-sloping plates, designed to randomize dice as they fall, ensuring unpredictable dice rolls. When the dice rolled out of the exit chute they rang the bells! There is a decorative dolphin either side of the stepped exit chute. The top of the front plate has two decorative pine cone finials. Height 25 cm. There is a single die shown next to the stepped base to illustrate how it was used. The front inscription reads: PICTOS VICTOS HOSTIS DELETA LVDITE SECVRI Translated as: βThe Picts defeated, the enemy has been destroyed, play in safetyβ. Around the top of the three remaining sides, a second inscription made with cut out letters reads: βUTERI/FELIX/VIVASβ translated as βUse happily; may you live wellβ. Found at a Roman villa at Froitzheim in Germany in 1985.
Roman anti-cheating gaming accessory!
This Roman βturriculaβ (dice tower) was used to ensure a fair roll of the dice! π²π²π²
Dice dropped into the top, tumbled over sloping internal levels, and appeared randomly below.
From Froitzheim, Germany, AD 300-400

There used to be an old sign by the path, warning passers-by of the local sleeping willow, which would trap the unwary with fatigue, engulf them while they slept, and release them a hundred years later.
There was a new sign:
"This sleeping willow is full."
And a map of other locations to try.
Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.
I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.
Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.
I really really want the world to know that *those federal fuckers have not left*. They are changing tactics. More disguises. Smaller tactical pairs. Smarter tactics.
Reposts welcome, but more importantly share this with folks NOT on Bsky who think we are safe.
