BECOME UNGOVERNABLE
Even if Democrats were trying to give illegal immigrants free healthcare, which they're not, that would still be a better use of our money than giving Elon Musk yet another tax break.
6 more hours until shutdown. We will likely soon be getting a vote on the clean CR (no anti trans provisions in it), which is expected to fail, and then we are officially in a government shutdown.
UK's Labour Party abandoned transgender people. The gambit to pursue rightwing voters by abandoning a targeted minority failed, and now they're facing the prospect of a historic loss.
US Dems could learn a lot from their failure.
Great piece from S. Baum.

Today is a good day for the House to vote to demand the release of the Epstein files.
Repost if you agree.
Thanks Obama.
At a time when fascists are forcing their twisted sense of order on us, the embodiment of chaos is on our side, and that’s wonderful.
I figured out I was trans when I was about 10, but the rampant homophobia (and by extension transphobia) of the 90s and 2000s scared me into trying to force myself to be cis until I was 25, when I just couldn’t take it anymore. My only regret about transitioning is not doing it sooner.
Political violence deserves no celebration, but neither does a man who dedicated his life to normalizing hatred and violence. Charlie Kirk deserves no memorial beyond being a victim of the same gun-obsessed culture he helped spread.
Pauline in Donkey Kong Bananza is MtF. She transitions from mineral to female.
Hey, thanks for the shout out! By the way, I actually discontinued Blood on Fire and an rebooting the whole story as Amy Has Fangs with better writing, a better story, and trans girl Amy! I'm aiming for traditional publishing, though, so it's not ready quite yet.
That ratio says everything, yet, for some reason, Democratic leadership still thinks we all want center-right nothing candidates who prioritize bipartisanship with fascists.

I’ve spent years paying into Social Security with the understanding I’ll start receiving it when I turn 65. Now, I’m paying into it with the understanding that billionaires will become richer. America is devolving into a kleptocracy.
Musk’s concept of gender capitalism confuses and infuriates me.
They baselessly accuse us of recruiting kids to be trans. Meanwhile, they’re out here literally trying to recruit kids to be anti-trans. It’s always projection with these people.
I wish I had a Dem Senator.
Eat it, TERFs.
FINALLY. Two weeks is too long.
This is what coming out as trans, gay or whatever is like. It's the choice to stop dying and start living.
And comes with a painful sting!
The White House has said that any of Elon Musk's conflicts of interest regarding his work with DOGE will be monitored and addressed by....Elon Musk.
He's determining which government contracts are "fraud" while he himself has billions in government contracts.
Hello?
For what it's worth, flawed though it was, I enjoyed my time with High Guardian Spice.
Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast have been making decisions steeped in greed and hubris that are alienating everyone regardless off political affiliation.
I know, Dungeons and Dragons is a bit controversial right now, but I'm putting together a 5e campaign set in Hyrule from The Legend of Zelda for my first time as a dungeon master.

I want to be a DM

With my Mac Mini and iPad Air joining my iPhone and Watch, I'm an Apple user now because the company has stood up to Trump before, and now's the time to buy before he passes his moronic tariffs.
New tech is set up
iPad and Mac are ready
In before tariffs

I got some bad news recently, which I won't detail yet, but there's a strange chance something good may come of it. I'll update here if that happens.
Unexpected news
Bad at first but good later?

Every one of Trump's cabinet nominees is twisted, evil, and thoroughly unqualified for the job, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if he actually nominated Sonic the Hedgehog's nemesis, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik to run the EPA.
Ivo Robotnik
Eggman to run EPA
Would not surprise me

Ouch. But he has a point.
It's Transgender Day of Remembrance, the day we recognize those we've lost in our community. Despite even the government wishing death on us, we cannot give in. We must keep living as our true selves.
Let's keep persisting
This Trans Day of Remembrance
We must not give in
