I can't disagree

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

One extremely handsome Australian shepherd in a red sweater looks earnestly at the camera. There is a Stonekettle pen resting on his leg. He wants to hear all about your day.

when people try to connect with me on Signal, claiming they know me from social media, they have to pass this challenge:

Name this dog

it strengthens their case if they remark on how handsome he is.

ooooooooooooh I like that

iirc, that was the style manual where whatever I say is the style is the style

Soon I will be back to the normal impediments to creativity: the burden of surviving under capitalism, and never having enough fucking time to do what I want. Which will be a nice change after being impeded by secret masked paramilitary forces.

My brain and emotions are close to normal for the first time since this ICE surge began. Yesterday I held a book in my hands and read for pleasure for the first time in two moths.

And I am itching to write something. Maybe a novel. Maybe nonfiction about sex work.

In seventh grade social studies class, when we were learning about geography, I observed (quietly, to myself) that I could call it the Strait of Whore's Moves.

My opinions are valuable. They can compensate me if they want. I can usually be purchased very cheaply. A candy bar? You're giving me a full-size Twix bar? okay, give me that survey

I despise them with the fury of a thousand suns, but arguably I am just rude

They already were friends! And she threw that away rather than letting her heart grow enough to recognize that trans people are people.

he is straight-up xenophobic and racist. Animated by hate, driven by cruelty.

what kind of person do you have to be to have such a small heart, such stunted empathy

I bring my bags with me each time. I am Virtuous

I have once again shown up in the international news, this time under my government name.

I’m always so mad at myself when I try this at the grocery store and have to admit I was wrong. Walking back for that basket is humiliating.

Far Side cartoon. Four cave dwellers in loin cloths take refuge in the high branches of a tree as two gigantic bears wait below. One bear is holding three people, all askew, while the other bear prepares to shake the tree. One bear says, "Let's see ... I guess your brother's coming over, too—better give it one more shake."

When you tell yourself you don’t need a hand basket because you’re only grabbing a couple things

Good morning

How do you feel about audiobooks? Because Andy Serkis narrates them and it's amazing. Start with The Hobbit.

On this International Women's Day, if you've ever saved any of my photos for intimate perusal, you may wish to tip me at the link in my bio.

what kills me is that I never realized it was an apostrophe. I look at apostrophes for a living.

right??

zero remorse here

Homosaurus

This is flattering!

I got to him just in time. He had his standard fare of wet food, two Handsome Pills, and kibble, which gave him the strength to enjoy a dessert of one pumpkin treato.

8:32. Standing up to feed him now (if he hasn't yet perished from hunger)

I love that
