Shaman says to get to enlightenment,
The gods, they gotta unmake and remake you
Atom by atom, all anew

Yeah, says the cocky surfer,
Ayahuasca weekender,
I been there. Saw the Gray Aliens too
In a sweat lodge high on peyote.

That old BS? Shaman laughs.
You crazy, man. Go home.

I am still VERY CONFUSED at why she was SO PRESSED about it!

Like... she got mad because I used the ladies room? So... gendered correctly I guess? But government papers still have my AGAB, so legally that's the one I have to use?

Also....who gives a shit? This lady apparently! Ooh she was heated

a couple of women are standing next to each other and one of them is screaming . ALT: a couple of women are standing next to each other and one of them is screaming .

Had my first "lady yelling at me for using thr bathroom" scene!!

Do I get a Trans Gold Star?

Wearing a particularly snug binder today, said out loud: I feel so secure. It's like a Thunder Shirt.

Legend. King. Inspo, of course.

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Day to all who celebrate. Be sure to let all your screams out and then disappear.

Noodling around while looking at nonfiction for the site.

Hauling on the tiny wheel,
Hand aching, sun beating
down on the back of my neck,
I wrestle with a lone camp #faucet
On a rickety pole.
Then, a miracle.
With an indignant squeal,
Rust gives way;
Water erupts
In a hissing flood.
Summer has begun.

Priorities.

Lookee at the little delight I got in the mail yestereve from @helleborezine.bsky.social

I love the pallete so much.

@tomsbrown.bsky.social The mire refuses to mourn her transformation. Gifts her crown of Bog Asphodel. Its golden tufts whisper their secret names to her. Bane-ward. Bone-breaker. Death-kiss and Marriage-marker.

We celebrate her transformation. The bog crowns another queen, and the dark gains another spirit. May her light be a warning and a promise.

Look, I have the opposite problem, and that legitimately sounds TASTY AF.

Gave me sandwich envy.

Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Another inspo. Best Mina, IMHO.

Inspo now and forever. ✊

You make my heart remember
the goth teenager I was in late summer
on a midcity graveyard picnic
in unseasonable black
lying on crackling sedge
warmed by parasol-laced sun
the dry scent of hot grass
bright in our noses
the pap and fizz of grasshoppers
our serenade

In the mail today, the December 1965 issue of Worlds of If magazine, featuring the first publication anywhere of Heinlein’s “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.”

In which our MC gets ready to make his confession.

"I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this..."

Reading Pablo Neruda tonight, to remind myself that I am not the only one to have loved so fiercely.

Ahhh I just want to nap with the cat but I have to stupid work for stupid money!!

a gray cloudy night sky and a telephone pole

just to break up the relentless beauty in your feed

is *that* how that works?
