Hey Critters!
As a quick note, our usual 9AM PT rebroadcast will be postponed this Friday, January 30th, so that everyone at Critical Role has the option to participate in the Nationwide General Strike in response to the ongoing brutality seen across our country, but especially in Minneapolis.
Still from Sherlock. Him using his Mind Palace powers to conjure up the words "Liberty Bell Fraternite Pattern Liberty" in front of him.
Still from The Good Doctor. Him using his Mind Palace powers to conjure up medical info in front of him.
Still from Stranger Than Fiction. Him using his Mind Palace powers to conjure up the words "1 bowl, 1 spoon, 2 forks, 3 cups" in front of him with accompanying icons.
The downside of Autism is that I can never see what's in front of me because the HUD is always blocking my view.
We’ve said it before, and here we are again. Mass detention + privatized cost controls + infectious disease = a public health nightmare--one that harms detainees and puts us all at risk.
The embroidery piece in the header image of this fantastic article is just stunning, but the one further down from Sarah Gonsalves with Renee Good's last words and her murderer's response literally took my breath away.
Feeling frazzled and need a script to call your reps?
This made it super, super easy.
Do it. Call your reps. The DHS bill is now coupled with many other bills, and they are making it really difficult to defund ICE. Ask for a standalone DHS bill!
Defund ICE and demand accountability!
I wanna be Aughra when I grow up.
Me: "Again, you're doing that same thing where you try to redirect the conversation to something I did INSTEAD OF addressing your behavior."
She just told me to "grow up". God, I wish she would.
My emotionally abusive mother sensed that I was upset with her and asked why... so, I told her. "You constantly invalidate my feelings. You'll say you'll stop and you don't. I haven't seen any efforts to change."
Of course, she tried to rebuke with, "Well I'm upset at YOU because you [excusehere]!"
The primary antidote to despair that I've found is getting engaged in local organizing and volunteering.
Find a group doing work you care about in your area - homeless advocacy and outreach, immigrant support, queer rights - and volunteer with them.
It's a tremendous counter to helpless despair.
I’d just like to say that I’m a big fan of autistic people, so if Tylenol causes them (it doesn’t), I guess I have Tylenol to thank for a significant portion of my friend group
A green watering can with its spout blocked by something beige.
It’s blocked by a frog! A frog’s face is glaring at me from inside the green watering can.
Tried to water the baby asparagus but the spout was blocked so I tried to shove the blockage down into the can but the thing inside shoved back.
Computer…enhance.

"Don't speak ill of the dead" being made into an unbreakable commandment by a culture that has done so much to shame away and erase any connection to ancestors in the cultures it oppresses is absolutely infuriating.
It is fucked up what they did to the headphone jack
This is easy and wonderful! Thank you soooooooo much for sharing it!
Reminder that feeding your cats raw food at this time is NOT safe. The speed at which cats go from a light fever to dying of pneumonia or neurological symptoms is just a few DAYS.
I lost 2 cats to this in March and had around 20k in medical bills to save 2 others who were hospitalized.
When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
YES. Because even when we do everything exactly according to what people SAY they want, a great deal of the time there's some unspoken ideas that we DON'T know about and people notice us most when we flub those!
It's just so wild that "because I don't wanna get sick" is something that needs to be explained, as if it's so unreasonable to not want to get sick.
And the other reason to mask, "I don't want to get other people sick," is just impossible for some people to even comprehend
Even though it's "just" stuff (and no biohazards), I still can't emphasize enough how BAD living in that was for my mental health. Having so little control of your surroundings makes it so very easy to feel hopeless.
I've been living within my mother's hoard for 2 years... In one of her spare rooms, surrounded by her boxes, that are literally stacked to the ceiling.
After 2 years, I finally have a room that's all my own again. Not a single object in here is hers, I have space to move and walk... I could cry.
It's the time of year when I see articles telling folks to put pet fur out for bird nesting. The Cornell ornithology lab does not recommend this! Flea/tick treatments & shampoos can be toxic, long fur can entangle chicks, etc. There are much better alternatives: www.allaboutbirds.org/news/providi...
A word to anyone else who had an antivaxxer parent, if you’re missing anything still, get that booked ASAP because often there’s multiple doses over time and it’s gonna be longer than you think until you’re fully vaccinated.
Alexithymia would be a beautiful girl name for a girl, but I don't know I feel about it
That's what I'm wondering too. Or maybe Statler and Waldorf have been around a while, and it's not a requirement anymore?
X post by Timothy Snyder (@TimothyD ...), posted 6 hours ago. The post reads, "The people Attorney General Bondi is calling 'terrorists' have had no trial and no chance to defend them. We do not know they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril."
I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.
You've been voting, you've been protesting. What else can you do to make your community a better place? Check out this handy doc listing all kinds of actions you can take - mutual aid, libraries and schools, political education, advocacy, and more!
The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money.
He was not dead.
The difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is mind-boggling in a way that most people don’t realize or can’t fully comprehend. Nobody should be a billionaire.
