chadzia dax needs help (see pinned post)

COVID isn’t over. Long COVID disability is real and more common than you think.

Fascism benefits from denialism and ableism. If you’re leftist, liberal, &c, you should wear an n95 in public.

As another creative who lost access to public life due to COVID denialism said:

“Fix your hearts or die.”

people call me up and ask me if we should do the panopticon and I say no no, let’s not do the panopticon and it’s a nice conversation

this was always the endgame, the complete erasure of trans people from public life and - if these people get their way - from existence entirely

it is a genocidal campaign and it has no place in a moral society

fuck your "just asking questions" about sports

disco bones' PJs. #StarTrek

People think transitioning as a transmasc is like "marginalized person transitioning into privilege". When the truth is its more like "marginalized person transitioning into a different marginalization." So sorry. Trans men and transmascs usually cannot opt out of misogyny and transphobia.

A reminder that using AI to clown on AI is still using AI

If you cannot go to the bathroom at work, you cannot go to work. If you cannot go to the bathroom at school, you cannot go to school. This effectively bans transgender people from a broad swath of public life in the UK

at the core of all the trans people in public spaces "debate" is this:

I don't care if you don't personally like seeing someone in public

shut up, keep it to yourself, and let them live their fucking lives

yep... it makes no sense to me at all, but then again, i have had a lifelong love of learning, which gen AI does not really facilitate.

I dont get people replacing hobbies w/ ai. Like okay go ahead and generate that music and art and book and chat with your ai bot. what are you gonna do for fun. play competitive games and never get ranked up cuz you suck ass bc you don't know how to improve at anything naturally. mom would be proud

JK Rowling et al. don't care about women's safety or fair sports or anything, they want to eliminate trans people from public life, and that's why you cannot give an inch to evil freaks like her.

"Clusters of thunderstorms will likely develop along a cold front late this evening across western Minnesota and track east overnight. Large hail and damaging winds will be possible." boooo.

and to say that if trump gets back to talkin HCQ again, y’all are gonna put those lessons of centering the most impacted into practice, right?
not erase us from our own story (again), right(:

incredible that smart, committed people are still doing “the norms will save us” in the midst of an authoritarian assault on our entire way of life, during which thus far the norms have not even been a speed bump

(forgetting the term for sous vide) meat bath

criticizing ai by using ai is certainly a choice

Headlines: "Judge Orders Halt to Construction at Florida's 'Alligator Alcatraz' Detention..." "Trump Administration's 'Alligator Alcatraz' Suffers Legal Blow" "Judge stops work at Florida's 'Alligator Alcatraz.' What are they building there?"

Alligator Alcatraz has been halted because of the Miccosukee Tribe. But look at how it's reported.

Native people constantly fight for not only the land, but human rights -- and their contributions are consistently erased.

And everyone does it. Erasing Native voices is the true American pastime.

1/3 thru the front panels of my damask Tunisian crochet cardi. Coulda lined the colors up a bit better with my "cut & switch" method but at least the depth of the colors are consistent with the back. Might do duplicate knit stitch to clean it up but overall I'm happy with it and my freehand border 🧶

If you don't have any homemade will to live, store bought is fine.

Traditional cis gender roles are far more of a gender ideology than what trans people are doing. We don't force other people to be trans, but the cis try to force us to be cis.

the opposite is fun too

Hi, I’m one of the disabled people y’all systematically abandoned watching you argue about systematically abandoning more people.

“You’re still here?!” You might ask, dripping with incredulity.

No thanks to you!

Anyway, stop fucking doing this. Stop feeding people to the political woodchipper.

Listen, I had to.

As a trans person my existence hurts nobody. It only hurts the concept that birth gender is destiny that shapes your entire life and what role you're supposed to be forced into, and that angers the people who are heavily invested in THAT *gender ideology*.

(also, “if wishes were horses” side note: god it’s creepy to have some random alien take the form of someone you like and work with and then basically repeatedly sexually harass/assault you in front of all your coworkers, including the person whose appearance they stole!)

a flipped screenshot from the deep space nine season 1 episode, “if wishes were horses”: a wide-eyed julian bashir is kissed on the bridge by some kind of metaphysical alien who has taken the form of jadzia dax.

going to see if i can try to capture some of this expression for julian, but it’s a different head angle, so i guess i’m gonna redo his whole head now. why do i do this to myself. ✍🏻

“Don’t let perfect be the enemy of the good”

This implies that pandering to bigots is “good”

non, merci
