It's me, Nico.

lol thankfully Deep Space Nine was there for me instead 😂

I have never seen it, not even tonight 🫥

I think it's important and worthwhile to make clear the short path between the anti-trans book bill being passed and the eventual banning of all queer books, and at the same time, I wish the immediate threat to trans art and people was enough to galvanize cis people

😔 me too, pal

I saw blood moon for you just now, can report it looked like a beautiful, dramatic slice of old ham suspended in the heavens.

I think Picard is a good and fair manager for all the parts where he does not actually have to talk to you. Basically, if Picard is your manager, then Riker is your manager.

ICYMI. Honored to have this beautiful, beautiful review of my book up at Strange Horizons, by @stephenrcase.bsky.social

oh WOW 🤩

This is worth mentioning to your friends who traded their ChatGPT for Claude subscriptions - Claude helped kill all of those little girls at school in Iran. Anthropic isn’t ethical AI.

I am the youngest of three.

I'm baby. (I am forty big years old.)

All this, as states like Kansas move to criminalize trans existence.

Horrifying doesn't even begin to cover it. This is, legally and practically, torture. They will deny HRT even to those who can no longer produce their own sex hormones, which can and will have dire medical consequences. They will drive people to suicide.

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

Sahar Delijani said it best:

Nope. We don't have to do this. The courageous act would be to refuse. Jingoist slop like this is an enormous factor in why the US has been terrorizing the world for decades. There are no heroes bombing Iran.

A thread of organizations who support trans Kansans, as a resource for those in KS and places to donate/support for those of us elsewhere. Please take a look and help out, if you're able.

No one I know is mourning Khamenei because he was a mass murderer.

We’re worried because we also know what the Americans and Israelis are: mass murderers.

That argument exists because the lives of non-white people are cheap in imperial discourse. Mass death on the other side of the world has no reality outside of what space it takes up on the american tv news cycle. If it were otherwise, the old normal would have been as insupportable as the new

Footage from Minab, Iran, shows the aftermath of an Israeli-US strike on a girls' elementary school that reportedly killed more than 50 people.

I want one in every color, so I can wear it every day.

No! I was hurrying to grab a free treadmill, and by the time I was done, he was gone 😭 Must make a game plan for if I see the same guy again lol

Rozanov jersey spotted at the gym 👀

Monstrous.

Ooof, I know this pain all too well.
