Queer K-Drama Rec

*WAVES* It's been a while since I've made a web drama rec but I just finished a cute and short little lesbian k-drama I think you should watch!

Lonely Girls (gl, lesbian romance, web drama) 4 Episodes (8 minutes each, on youtube)

Plot: Two girls meet on tinder and just absolutely fall head over heals for one another. These are happy gays people! and one of them has the cutest dimples ever! Mostly each episode is them working out little disagreements and then making up. It's CUTE and if you don't like it you wasted 10 minutes ;-)

The main flaw is that it's SUPER short (as most korean gls are highly underfunded compared to bls--yes I'm mad about this. Why can't we have both?) which means the plots are very underdeveloped and not super deep. But if you're looking to support queer content and watch something super light and fluffy, head on over to youtube!

This is the first episode of a web series I've been producing, directing, acting in, editing, location scouting, etc, for about 2 years with some of my favorite people in the world. I hope you enjoy!

I find myself in the surreal position of being a victim of the Eaton Fire. It's certainly not my favorite experience, but I have been deeply touched by all the "helpers," as Mr. Rogers taught us. Any help would be much appreciated, including just boosting this post. Thank you 🙏

if you're subscribed to Microsoft word, you probably received an email recently saying they're upping their prices. Like, a lot. ($9.99/month instead of $6.99)

guess what though? you can log into your account, click Cancel Subscription, and get the option to continue your subscription at the same price WITHOUT their bullshit AI.

That's right, the new, higher price is actually a different subscription that includes AI that everyone is being opted into by force! What a cool and fun product that clearly everyone wants.

you can also choose to buy Word 2024 without AI for a single lump sum that will be yours in perpetuity, with no updates, for one computer.

Check your subscription if you need Word for work! Don't get duped into paying for something you might not even want

ICE raids are set to start as soon as tuesday (JAN 21, 2025) in Chigago so make sure you know your rights, your community, and your plan.

ICE MUST have a warrant to search/enter any property. they will lie and manipulate you to allow them on the premises but if they arent holding a valid document in their hands they cannot legally do anything

They may say something like "our warrant is in the truck," tough shit, have them bring it to you, DO NOT FOLLOW THEM ANYWHERE. Do not leave your property if confronted.

If you are taken, say nothing until a lawyer is present. The exception is if there are bystanders present/filming, then you should shout your name and whats happening

If you are witnessing a raid in your community, wait to warn others via phone as the cops may be monitoring nearby communications and may use that to select their next targets. Warn by code or word of mouth

escape if the opportunity presents itself, but dont be stupid.

If the reports are accurate, a ceasefire agreement will likely be confirmed in the coming hours. Should it take effect, it will serve as a further record of the Biden government's mendacity and evil in enabling a genocide that it could have easily and swiftly ended. More importantly, it will be a testament to the Palestinian liberation movement, who, with virtually nothing but their own ingenuity, have successfully resisted the might of the Israeli regime and of the most powerful empire in human history. Both must be dismantled without hesitation if true life and freedom are to be gained.

hey so Los Angeles is in crisis right now.

Multiple concurrent wildfires are happening, two of which are extremely devastating. The Palisades Fire, which at this time is the deadliest wildfire in LA history, has burned 18 square miles worth of land and destroyed over 1,000 structures. The Eaton Fire has burned over 10,000 acres. And the Santa Ana winds are rapidly escalating the fires to where containment at this time is borderline nonexistent and firefighters are at a loss for what to do. People have died. The air is extremely hard to breathe from smoke. Elderly, disabled and transient populations are at great risk. Even 20 miles south and 30 miles west of the Palisades and Eaton Fires, the smoke is so bad that there are air quality alerts and the moon is red at night. These have been called “catastrophic urban firestorms” and the people affected need your compassion.

If you are directly affected by the Eaton or Palisades Fires, here is a list of safe evacuation centers:

The DreamCenter is also taking evacuees.

I’ll reblog when I can with more information for shelters but in the meantime please signal boost and add your own information if and when possible.

Hey do y'all remember several years ago when we were all freaking out about net neutrality being overturned? Well despite net neutrality's win in 2024, a federal court just overturned it.

For those who aren't aware, net neutrality is the simple principle that companies like Verizon and Comcast should treat all web traffic equally – not pick and choose based on who is willing to pay more or who they like best. Big Tech companies obviously don’t like that – which is why they spent millions lobbying against it over the years.

Now, these megacorporations will be able to seize control back over our Internet. The likely result? Throttled access to streaming services, monopolistic pricing that cuts out competition, and a slower, walled off, and less free Internet for all of us.

And unfortunately, rulings like this will only get more common now that the Supreme Court has overturned the “Chevron deference” – giving judges, rather than qualified public servants, a blank check to toss out protections like net neutrality, environmental safeguards, or food safety standards.

When Trump’s FCC repealed net neutrality back in 2017, they gave big corporations total control over our Internet – putting free and open access at risk.

Internet providers responded by exploiting their newfound power to speed up certain websites, and slow down – or even block – others. They failed to provide crucial Internet infrastructure in rural areas, low-income communities, and communities of color. They even slashed firefighters’ Internet access during severe wildfires.

But over 126,000 people spoke out and we were able to reinstate net neutrality – until now.

The time has come again to take action: please sign this petition from Common Cause so we can reinstate net neutrality.
