But I'm sure you'll still actually have to drive to a clinic in order to talk to the AI doctor. You know, because it's important to preserve office culture and fill out paperwork to bill your insurance.

All I can say, is I was so grateful for TrueSelves.

I don't know who the hell she is, but I'm guessing she's that anti-trans swimmer. Then again, I don't know who any male athletes are either. And I thought milk was gross even before RFK's new endorsement, so this isn't going to change my mind about anything.

I made a very friendly sign.

All the people who demanded that everyone demonstrate unconditional reverence and compassion for the man who was murdered in Utah a few months ago, seem to have none of that for the woman who was murdered in Minneapolis today.

Nearly 50 comrades in Burlington, Iowa at our protest today!

It's Friday night, and I'm bored.

😁

If you're staying Saturday night... Hint, hint ;)

I'll be running karaoke at ICON 49.5 this Saturday in Iowa City!

Over 65 protesters this week in Burlington, Iowa with SE IA Indivisible. And I got a megaphone. His name is Pablo. ;)

I thought he already had some kind of arrangement to go to Costa Rica, and that they were sending him to Uganda just to fuck with him. It seems they're willing to send him anywhere except a place he might want to go.

Why has nobody brought up Captain Killy? Be still, my heart...

I remember when I had to do that. I'm really sorry, it was horribly demoralizing. I hope you're able to get into a situation where you don't have to worry about doing that anymore.

The one with the Gustav Klimt print is amazing...

These dogs should have access to a Klein bottle filled with water. Just saying.

I would very much like to know when this audiobook is available!

You might consider the Quad Cities also, very affordable.

I hope an audiobook pre-order counts, because I just did that. :)

4. Judith Butler wrote about this in a new article that was recently published. It's pretty dense, but check it out, because they're a fuck of a lot smarter than I am, and they discuss the sexist, classist, and political ramifications of this kind of chicanery.

3. Now, as seen in the language of both Trump's 0-day executive order, and in the recently amended Iowa Civil Rights Act, they are trying to define it on the basis of having the presence of organs that would potentially develop large or small reproductive cells. This is just as bogus.

Judith Butler · This Is Wrong We need a better understanding of the fears exploited by authoritarians: who is this ‘migrant’, so dangerous they...

Has anyone besides me noticed that, over the years, those espousing biological determinism as the basis for their attacks on transgender people, have repeatedly shifted their yardstick of what defines or constitutes sex?

opi suomea! 🇫🇮

And that detestable woman will sign it the moment it comes off the printer.
