Taking children from their parents is one of the qualifying elements of a genocide.

IE: Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

got covered in freezing ice yesterday, felling trees and damaging homes, vehicles and more. Hundreds of thousands of people without power.

My mood-elevation-attempt comment to peers of “Climate change has angered the Ents” was not well received.

There's not a doubt in my mind that if Mr. Rodgers had known about trans kids, he would have invited them onto his show, shown them love, and taught a lesson to all of his viewers about pronouns.

Please stop using “mom” as an example of an unsophisticated user of technology. This reinforces harmful stereotypes.

Instead, I suggest using “congressperson”.

I really enjoyed Amazon’s Rings of Power. It’s not a Game of Thrones, but it’s so fun, moving and interesting that I looked forward to every episode. I’m surprised by the metric of how many viewers stopped watching it. O_o

@JayRobbie Thunderbird + @libreoffice as a Microsoft Office killer? We couldn't agree more! In fact, you might start to see the two of us working more closely together in the coming months...

Transgender people are being increasingly attacked and their basic rights threatened around the world.

On today's I have a smirking message of resistance:

We can't die because we are so... very... pretty. Ain't no power in the verse gonna stop us.

PSA: the words “calorie(s)” are being retired and replaced by “calorific(s)”, because that’s more terrific.

Usage examples:
-That’s a beautiful apple! But not as calorific as as a slice of pecan pie.
-I was going to have a bottle a beer, but I went with a shot of whiskey instead. It’s not as calorific, but that’s ok. It’s still delicious.

See? It sounds disappointing when things are less calorific.

*Lawyer leans over and whispers in my ear, “what about horrific?”*
*Me: Shhhh!*

Hello, my name is Ella. It's been 10 hours since I last played Destiny.

I only have to wait 2 more hours before Destiny lunch break. Phew! Good thing too because it's not safe fidgeting with my throwing knives so much.

Dreams are a "for a limited time only" scarcity marketing scam.

I’ve never heard the word “lox” in Canada. I’ve only ever asked for “salmon” when seeking that condiment on a bagel. *shrug* I would have been just as lost.

USA’s anti-trans political movement has advanced in Iowa. Those poor kids and families losing access to puberty blockers and restrooms. Misery, suffering and suicides are going to increase. I’m so angry! State after state my no-fly list grows.
