I preordered this beauty back in early September and I can’t wait to crack it open. It was waiting in my mailbox for me today 😁

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

Thank you, Skip!

TIL I share a birthday with Rosa Parks. I may never achieve her level of greatness, but what an inspiration she is to stand up to injustice. Especially considering the political climate.

More like being a thorn in society’s side and generally wreaking havoc. If nothing else, being more vocal than I’ve been in a while to educate others and advocate for myself and my trans siblings. Still figuring out the details but that’s part of the fun

Hospital protests have begun for hospitals that are complying with an executive order banning gender affirming care.

The order does NOT have the force of law, but some hospital systems are too scared of trump to defend trans kids in their care.

This one at UVA Hospital.

Too late

Spent the past couple weeks reeling and spiraling due to the anti-trans EOs. I’m done.

Now I’m a gremlin and it’s the world’s problem to deal with it.

All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

Exactly a year ago I filed the paperwork with my local courthouse to legally change my name to match my gender, not thinking what the date was. Fitting.

It’s not often I have butch moments but when I do, it’s because I changed my windshield wipers.

My partner said that orange cats are the feline equivalent of human blondes and I can’t stop thinking about that comparison.

Hochul joins chorus of opposition to Nassau's ban on transgender athletic participation Pushback and legal questions mounted after a Nassau County executive moved forward with restriction on Thursday.

To protect young girls in sports, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman will want their genitals inspected by coaches and teachers before they can play.

Is that how Republicans want to protect kids now? By humiliating and violating them?

Disheartening news from Oklahoma today. May the family of Nex Benedict find the peace they deserve and may justice be served against those responsible for this avoidable tragedy.

Fresh basic income pilot results, this time from Arlington, Virginia where 200 people got $500 a month for 2 years. The findings:

Employment INCREASED by 16%, and their incomes from paid work INCREASED by 37%. The control group saw no such gains.

Had a piece of saltwater taffy. It was flavored apple and banana.

Take a wild fucking guess which earworm has been stuck in my head for the past 2+ hours. Here’s a hint:

I like to eat…..

Worst part about taking a vacation is having to wake up on time when you return to work.

I was too busy enjoying the festivities of New Year’s Eve and recovering from said activities yesterday to actually post anything.

Nevertheless, happy New Year, lovelies.

Forgot to mention earlier but after taking several years to get my life together and stabilized, I got accepted into my preferred MSW program!!

Let’s play a game. Post your results in the comments. I’ll go first.

Merry Christmas to me, I just paid off my car!

I suppose that’s an acceptable answer

Does the oath sound something along the lines of “I solemnly swear I’m up to no good”?

$750 a month, no questions asked, improved the lives of homeless people A study by USC and a San Francisco-based nonprofit has found that a $750 monthly stipend improves the lives of homeless people.

Another basic income pilot focused on homelessness has released preliminary results after only 6 months because halfway through the experiment, it is already showing incredible effectiveness.

$750/mo for 6 months led to homelessness dropping to 12% versus 23% in the control group on a wait list.

Can someone please explain to me why every dating site user name of “M” turns out to be a Michael? Every single Matt, Mark, and Max I’ve come across uses his actual name but if his name is Michael/Mike he’ll use “M.”

What gives?

Congrats to Hasbro for pulling, yet again, an award winning move in the “Fuck You” category for the second time in the last 12 months.
