Transmedicalists are infuriating. Being queer should be liberating, not give you more bullshit boxes you need to fit into and expectations you have to fulfill. I'm sorry they are particularly shitty to you.

But I actually DISLIKE being referred to with a title. And it's not just about being nonbinary. I don't want to be called Mx. Robert either. Just call me Robert and stop "correcting" my students.

"well in our culture..." Yeah, I get that. I was also raised to call an adult Title LastName. I developed this opinion independent from my parents' teaching.

I would argue that calling it us MORE respectful for my students to call me Robert (with no title, just my name) than to add on a title just because I'm an adult. That's what I asked them to do.

Respect is not one size fits all. What makes one person feel respected will make another feel disrespected.

I love being told that it's disrespectful for my students to call me Robert even after I explain that I tell them to just call me Robert because that's what I want to be called.

We urge CGE to reconsider their plans to release Codenames: Back to Hogwarts, or at least dedicate a portion of the proceeds to organizations such as The Trevor Project to offset licensing fees that flow back to Rowling.

Since Codenames (/publisher Czech Games Edition) has decided to side with money and against human rights, im going to make a thread of five board games you could play instead of Codenames

Andrea Gibson was a phenomenal poet who used language beautifully to express deep emotion. They will always be one of my favorites.

Finally got to come to the @columbuslibrary.bsky.social Book Festival! I'm super excited that @nghivo.bsky.social is one of the featured authors. Unfortunately, I couldn't stick around for the signing later, but I bought one of each book in the Singing Hills Cycle!

Every time I go to an amusement park with my sister, she takes charge and gets mad when nobody else makes decisions. Then she starts in on me every fucking time. Make decisions or don't, but please just fucking treat me with basic human respect.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
