The signal to noise ratio in my head is ABYSMAL.
"Either side" is a trap. There are a lot of sides. Fucking people and their precious binaries.
I know I should have a current passport right now. My trans husband and enby kiddo, too. $130 a pop is absolutely not tenable for us. I guess we're in it to the end.
Settle down there, Satan.
Breaking news: State attorneys general from California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Vermont, and Wisconsin advise Trump's EO banning trans care is unlawful, hospitals should provide care.
Big counter salvo!
As the daughter of a contractor, I know that owner/builders can be difficult, but it shouldn't take two days to get someone to stop by and look.
This process was really upsetting, as I spent weeks doubting my abilities and being talked down to. My work has been PERFECT while theirs was shoddy.
The installers, though, left out a bunch of stuff THEN tried to tell me that the pump wasn't moving water because I'm not an electrician. The pump wasn't moving water because the new mound they built was frozen solid. I had to take VIDEOS to convince them that I am not an incompetent liar. 2/3
We've just had a new septic system installed. That part is super exciting. In signing the contract, though, I didn't notice that electrical work is not included.
Three weeks in, I've researched and labored nonstop. My wiring was IMPECCABLE... 1/3
First hints?!
Hi, it's me. I'm the problem. I've seen the light. I'm ready.
I like when they come into our spaces and act like it's Facebook days. Nobody's fucking around with the magats anymore. They can't antagonize us. It's just block and move on. Why was that so hard for us for so long?
I spent a fair amount of time after my deconstruction critiquing the left. Critiquing other queer folks. Critiquing those who saw different paths forward. It helped me clarify my views and push for growth. I'm not sorry, but I am DONE. We need to pull together if we're gonna live.
I don't like to see meta links here and I don't click them, but I don't think it's weird or bad to post them.
The TikTok ban is really one of the more draconian acts of mass censorship in modern memory and not even subtly so. An entire generation is never going to forget it.
For those who have followed me from Facebook: Brenda Churchill has passed. I can't believe it.

I am awake. I am aware. I am kicking and screaming.
我醒了。我意识到了。我又踢又叫。
Right? It's been so wholesome and heartwarming.
对吧？这真是太健康、太温暖了。
There is tons of queer content. Stop.
我真的很害怕，但到目前为止我喜欢 2025 年。我们成千上万的人刚刚开始在中国随意交朋友，这真是太棒了。政府的过度干预让我们学习普通话，这给了我生命。
On the TikTok progression:
Folks who were very content playing kazoos with their nose and showing you their cats are spitting class conciousnesses and revolutionary thought. It fills my soul.
I dug up a family skeleton while seeking DNA information. Folks are hurting because I spoke. Today's mantra:
It's going to be okay. Truth is light. Truth is antiseptic. Truth is healing. Truth is nurturing. Truth is affirming. Truth builds bridges. Truth magnifies love. Truth allows us to see.
Reminder: We are coming from online environments where our identities, empathy, and love were under attack every day. Aggressive, mean environments that got less safe every day.
I'm trying to bring a less defensive energy here. Guardrails are in place.
First post! Meta is gone! Well, it's mostly gone. Those rat finks at android won't let me delete the app completely. The corporate ecosystem is WILDLY self-protective.
I'm erasing myself from Meta apps. They're showing us that they're just Musk with slightly better self-control.
