gonna use my ramble post for today to just say that im completely against generative ai. if you show me something made with ai, i will reevaluate having you in my life. im not joking i would rather drop a 100 pound weight on my foot than use generative ai for anything. if you use ai it tells me that you dont care at all for the creative process and you need instant gratification even if the cost is doing irreparable damage to the planet we live on.
From the Nashville Zoo’s fb page! Here’s the petition, please please please take a moment to add your name (even if you’re not from Nashville!). If you are from Tennessee, contact your representatives and make it clear that the people do not want this data center. This is an AZA accredited zoo which is home to several species of critically endangered animals, we NEED to protect it. Make your voice heard!
Because people will pay attention to cute animals, here are some of the critically endangered/endangered species housed at the Nashville Zoo!
The Amur Leopard and Clouded Leopard (which recently celebrated its 50th cub born at the zoo!)
The Sumatran Tiger
The Red Ruffed Lemur and Ring-Tailed Lemur
The Cotton-Top Tamarin and White-Cheeked Gibbon
The Colobus Monkey and De Brazza’s Monkey
And the Mexican Spider Monkey!
Look at them!!!! Look at them and fight like hell to save them!!!!
do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets
her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.
remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.
thank you, Marsha. we remember you.
concept: hard magic system based on the 7 fundamental forms of measurement
time: rare, hard to master due to how fluid time is. however, those who have access to it can essentially control life and death, by which i mean they can control the time that it takes for something to heal, can control how fast something lives and dies, etc.
length: size-based abilities, including growing, shrinking, stretching, condensing, etc.
mass: can control one's weight and matter (meaning earth, water, and air bending are on the table)
amount/volume: can greatly increase or decrease the quantity of something, so duplication and division i suppose? maybe alchemy on the table as well by manipulating ratios of ingredients? (science side of tumblr help me out here im a bit stuck)
temperature: fire and ice magic... im a simple person. i like my fire and ice magics, especially if theyre a form of the same magic ability.
electric current: on the tin; can manipulate electricity. pretty standard but not underpowered
luminous intensity: light manipulation, but also darkness manipulation. if you can control how much light is in an area, that amount can be 0.
yall know human trafficking isnt just sex trafficking right? right????
The MAJORITY of human trafficking is for labor; factory work, garment/textile work, agricultural work, construction, and domestic work/cleaning.
And that's without counting -legal- human trafficking: Prison labor.

Signing the petition is really easy, and there are options for being outside of the U.S. We didn't manage to save Marcellus Williams, another Black Muslim man wrongfully on death row. And Alabama loves state funded murder of Black bodies in particular. Let's do what we can, please 🙏🏾 if nothing else, let it be known that we didn't speak up at all.

I am happy to act as a reference for you and am happy to connect you to housing resources. please hit up my ask box or email me. feel free to share this post with people who may need this information. thank you, good luck.
"The legislature did not include a grace period."
Here's some more context for the post above (a generous offer I hope some can make use of!) On Feb 23 2026 trans people in Kansas started to receive letters saying that their driver's license had to match their sex assigned at birth, and that any driver's license with an updated gender marker was not valid. Trans folks were directed to surrender their current IDs at the DMV, where they would be issued a new driver's licence that matched their sex assigned at birth. There is NO grace period to handle this ID change, so even if a trans person decided to comply and drive to the DMV the very next day, they could be caught driving without a valid license, they could face a class B misdemeanor carrying up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Kansas already requires county jails to house inmates according to sex assigned at birth. (Read Erin in the Morning's piece above to see a scan of the letter and more info).
One organization seeking to help trans people leave hostile states and relocate to Colorado (which borders Kansas) is the Trans Continental Pipeline, which accepts donations:
Queer Relocation Nonprofit in Denver, Colorado
Now would be a great time to make a donation if you have the means!
Until next life
Fascists don't want kids to learn sex education because while they say it's to prevent access to "lewd" content and "alternative lifestyles", aka other people existing that aren't cishet, in reality it helps kids prevent being assaulted.
Oh, hey, a perfect example of how right wing fearmongering about queer people and “protecting children from the Dreaded Smut” are inexorably linked.
"Sex ed protects kids from predators" is also part of the reason fascists are against it. Look at how MAGA are trying to rehabilitate Epstein and saying shit like "partying with Epstein isn't a crime!" Look at how many prominent far-right figureheads were close to Epstein in the first place, and how Epstein himself was a eugenicist. Not all predators are fascists, but all fascists are predators.
Fascists hate sex ed because it reduces their ability to prey on women and kids. The sleaze is the point.
Good time to mention that the Unitarian Universalist church has a sex education program called Our Whole Lives (OWL) and many of the resources are available for free online. The program is designed for age-appropriate discussions of bodily autonomy, gender, sexuality, sexual health, and all forms of sexual and non-sexual intimacy starting in kindergarten and continuing through to adulthood. If you or someone in your life is in need of comprehensive, compassionate sex ed it's a great place to start.
Also, @hellyeahscarleteen is the Tumblr face of the excellent Scarleteen website, which answers questions on those same topics and is a perfect self-study aide.
In a memo to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem regarding tribal members recently detained by ICE, Frank Star Comes Out, president of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, said:
“This is a treaty violation. Treaties are not optional. Sovereignty is not conditional. Our citizens are not negotiable.”
He added:
“The irony is not lost on us.”

Are you scared? Enraged? Feeling powerless? Ready to go break things? Don't know what to do first?
Last week the House approved a huge appropriations bill that among other things, sends another massive chunk of money to ICE. The Senate is voting on it this week.
Now is a GREAT time for you to call your Senators, especially because so many of us are at home in the midst of an epic winter storm. If their voicemails are full (I hear that is happening right now...fuck yeah), then send them an email. In fact, do both! Let's create a tsunami of concerned constituents.
I know this seems like a small thing, but it's a start. And it is one more way we can protect our neighbors. AND IT WORKS!
I am trying my hardest to not give into the overwhelming desire to just fucking give up right now. Please join me in that. When we give up, evil wins. We are not doomed (unless we decide we are). And I swear I will make you a fake cake reminding you of that every day until goodness prevails.
