hey comrades, Amazon is trying to bully Seattle out of taxing a _tiny_ fraction of its profits. come out on Saturday to show them we won't stand for that, and to pressure the city council into passing the EHT!

@Jacel @anthracite @_ yeah, the amount of spoilering in the "next on Steven Universe!" blurbs was kind of appalling. I didn't have the Main Reveal spoilered, but a *bunch* of other stuff was, including some of what's going to happen in the next episode. >___<

@anthracite well tbh the SHOCKING NOSPOILERS REVEAL was less the thing itself and more *how* it happened, there's some pretty deeply messed up stuff going on there, and the very first clue that reactions to this reveal are going to be varied and Not Great.

have you seen Lars In Space? 'cause that's pretty awesome. XD

@lopsigon@octodon.social @kara@occult.camp I got as far as "H He Li Be B C N O F Ne" because it scans/rhymes properly, but the structure breaks down after that. (there was a periodic table chart in my math classroom and I spent a *lot* of time staring at it)

My computer has died, and I need help replacing it. Please contribute and/or boost, and thank you in advance for your help <3 gofundme.com/noelle-replace-my

sometimes I look at the global timeline and can't tell if I'm not understanding posts because they're about computer stuff, or because they're *literally* in another language. or both!

father's health stuff, apology 

@kara@occult.camp hon, you're going through something that can *break* people. be kind to yourself, as much as you can. I'm here, and listening, and sending as much care and empathy as I can. *gentle hugpets offered*

weird, shmoopy, body horror (+) 

@anthracite @mxsparks there'd be no provenance for anything which would be maddening, but on the other hand it would provide an *excellent* statistical sampling, allowing all kinds of research about growth and development, dietary habits, dentistry practices...

..... yes I tend to think about everything in paleontological terms sooner or later

@anthracite @mxsparks reminds me of "Hogfather." if you've read it you know *exactly* what I mean. :|

(the paleontologist in me is squeeing helplessly though)

seize the media 

i'm reading this blog post from @ajroach42 about DIY media and all i can think about is queer zines

> At this point, I feel like the act of creating media outside of the control of a multi-million dollar corporation is a radical act in and of itself.

Steven Universe spoilers for "Single Pale Rose" 

@frameacloud oh *dang* I hadn't caught that, you're absolutely right! woooowwwww. excellent catch, thank you for pointing it out! :D

Steven Universe spoilers for "Single Pale Rose" 

@frameacloud it being a mind palace, it can probably change, or Steven only saw a very small part of it in the episode--assuming you mean the first layer organization thing. or, rather, that Steven only saw Pearl using it like a Rolodex, rather than as an actual mind palace, if that makes sense. as to why she'd be doing that right then, weeelllll... gotta keep on task to avoid those untidy thoughts!! :|
