The Actually Good News Repository

This is my own personal repository for news websites that aren't alarmist, preying on emotional reactions, uncurious, purposefully cruel, or any other form of the bad journalism people currently expose themselves, and are exposed to.

It is NOT an assertion that everything they publish I can fact-check, it is a list of sources that are informative, curious, intelligent, and compassionate that will hopefully be an exit to social media brainrot.

Shout out to trans women who aren’t computer scientists or musicians or avant-garde artists or whatever.

Shout-out to tgirls who work at Taco Bell. Thank u queen, society would collapse without you

snkrfnd

Over twenty years ago my big brother got me a job at a Taco Bell in the St. Louis suburbs-West County. He warned me that it was the “gay Taco Bell”, but since I was coming from the “gay Howard Johnson’s” I wasn’t shocked. It turns out it was the black trans women Taco Bell complete with black trans women in management. And they’d worked out an arrangement with the local teen Narcotics Anonymous group so that twice a week we would shut down the drive thru and the dining room and exclusively serve 60+ teens in various stages of recovery. And many of the women I worked with were in various stages of being out or transitioning and they were from all generations from teens to over 50. One woman I worked with had a regular corporate job presenting as a man 9-5 Mon-Fri and then came to Taco Bell and worked 6pm -2am Friday and Saturday night so she could be herself surrounded by other black transwomen in those stolen weekends. And we had customers come from all over the metro area because they knew they could be themselves in the dining room. I only worked there from 1999-2001 but for young me, this was a vital, formative experience. Some of the girls came from north city all the way out to the “gay Taco Bell” on Manchester in west county because they heard it was safe to work there. Like- I know times have changed but they haven’t changed much in 20 years. I’m still convinced that for lgbt youth, finding a job at your city’s version of the “gay Taco Bell” is key to survival.

Question 7: Assuming that the Roman Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation is correct, estimate how tall Christ our Lord must have been in order for His body to furnish all properly consecrated Communion wafers consumed to date. Justify your assumptions.

🐦 Pipeline the Pigeon 🐦

Pipeline is a needle felted soft sculpture made using natural grey wool sourced from the Jad Bhotia Community of Harsil Valley, Uttarakhand in India, and New Zealand Corriedale Wool. In addition to his wool body, his feet and beak are made using wire armature and painted cotton thread and his eyes are glass beads.

He is named for a pigeon I knew, who nested behind a sewer pipe next to a bedroom window on the fourth floor of an apartment building. His constant cooing bothered everyone but they could do nothing about it, as he was unbothered by verbal threats and beyond the reach of brooms and other implements. I've always liked pigeons because they always seem to want to be near us.

DM to buy!
