If you live in California, please join me in calling Gov Newsom at (916) 445-2841 to let him know he’s lost your support and you’ll never vote for a Democrat who doesn’t stand with trans people.

Please remember that disability doesn’t take a day off. If someone you know has a chronic illness or disability and isn’t as interactive as you’d like them to be, please understand we’re doing our best. Our disability doesn’t take holidays.

I’ve seen that Every Frame a Painting video about his work so many times, but I haven’t checked out his films yet.

Tokyo Godfathers changed me as a person I think bc it appeared when I still was forming my own ideas and thoughts about the world
It shows empathy and compassion and reality and warmth all at once, to the kinds of characters not normally given that grace or care on the larger screen!
Sammy says “Merry Cat-mas!”
… at least I assume he said that.
Ask him what product he uses to get his hair (fur? head fur.) so swoopy and swishy.
