I'm a tiny guppy in a great big sea. But I haven't the spoons to hang out with Elon's Nazis, Putinistas, and incels. I'll miss y'all. #ByeTwitter

Also, YAY for working out your issues with your upbringing in your art, but LYING about it to entice me to participate in your therapy without my consent is unethical and gross.

I swtg, I've got no followers to speak of, but anyone else I see who tells me a forced kiss to shut someone up because you're losing an argument is anything other than sexual assault is automatically blocked.

@cassie_ohpeia 🪽 <- that does not look like a wing to me

Oh hey! Thank you for 2k!!! That's so wild 😳 how about we do a giveaway for a "their wings make a heart" necklace to celebrate? Rules: - be following me - retweet this post - comment with a 🪽to enter I'll ship it anywhere, so no worries about location!

@planetplush They are so cute! To the 🌎...

@KitWhitfield It's a story with many variants. Here's the Wikipedia write-up: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Girl_… (I have yet to see a good modern retelling, although it's certainly relevant)

@KitWhitfield The Armless Maiden, and variants

@doctorow @NearandDistant How about standing outside that grocery store and saying, "Nah, I don't need to eat with anyone who shops there. Too likely to end up with rat turds in my meal." Enjoy your edits. I won't be seeing how they work out for you. I'm sure you don't care.

@NearandDistant Yes, boycotts have power. That power is downstream of organizing - c.f. BDS, Montgomery buses, etc. That's organized power mobilizing together. It's not standing outside the store and shouting at people whose groceries you disapprove of.

If you're angry that I gave a giant asshole $8 so I could get an "edit tweet" button, holy shit are you going to be furious when you find out where the fossil fuels that heat my house come from. Shopping your way out of monopoly capitalism is a fool's errand. You are not an ambulatory wallet. Shopping isn't politics. Politics are politics: organizing, writing, speaking, voting, ringing doorbells, marching. Shopping. Is. Not Politics.

@HKBlack I am so sorry to hear this. Many {{{hugs}}} if you want them.

@SAPIENS_org What if things we don't know but like speculating about as if we did, had stayed exactly the same, except in a world that is completely different? That's a lot of pixels wasted that could have spent on unapologetic fanfic.

"Stay angry, little Meg," Mrs Whatsit whispered. "You will need all your anger now."

@SleepyOktobur You are a brave person. I am sorry that your trust was abused and your privacy violated. I hope that you can always find the medical care you need.

I have reinstalled Twitter to respond to this story and make sure my voice is fully heard. I am Casey. My real name is Alex but my mom decided it would be best to hide it for anonymity. But this is my story, not hers. This is not the free press’s story.

@Rob_ThaBuilder @SleepyOktobur Obviously the doctors should have hid facts that you don't like, leaving the parent ignorant and more likely to make a decision that you approve of.

You articulate yourself well here, I appreciate you taking speaking out about your experience here. My question: you say your mom wasn't "pressured" into saying yes by the doctors and did not explicitly say you were a suicide risk. But given that you weren't suicidal, do you not think that by even bringing up the suicide statistics that was a form of pressure in and of itself? If you weren't suicidal, it seems the only reason TO bring it up was to exert pressure.

@MAV333RDLancers @1a @rebleber @bradytoday @BrianKavanaghNY Me: "I need diamonds for my drill bit" You: "Oh, you're only saying that because you've been indoctrinated!" Tools are for use. The side costs may be too high, but you're a fool if you ignore that a particular tool might be preferred because it is objectively more useful.

@1a @rebleber @bradytoday @BrianKavanaghNY I don't doubt the science your guests bring up. But their campaign would be a LOT more effective if they didn't keep insisting that those who love cooking on gas stoves were just stupid and tricked by advertisers. Maybe it really is better? Don't insult me, persuade me.

Strictly entre nous, I'll remember all of you Don't give up on those precious dreams That haven't yet come true Awfully glad I met you, Cheerio and toodle-oo Thank you, Thank you so much.

A pair of gay pajamashat I eyed But didn't wear. We said goodbye with a blue check With a nod to Slavoj Zizek, (I'll miss the art and fanfic) Still - no tears, no fuss, Hooray for us.

Will this be my last tweet? Oh well, then: Thanks for the memes and tweets Of missteps that you forgave, Of rainbows and blue waves, The stalking and doxxing To all who still were brave, Thank you so much.
