I loooooove the show and the book series. I’m re-listening to β€œRole Models” right now (at work which I do not recommend). The thread is excellent!

Teen Vogue eliminated all their Black and trans staff today.

It's resegregation in real time.

Does anyone know of a small shop that has hummingbird stained glass? I’ve looked on Etsy, but most of it feels mass produced and I don’t want that. Thanks!

Thank you. I don’t remember where I’ve shared it so some people get it twice.
I wish the same thing for all of us. It’s not terribly surprising this aunt is doing this b/c she used to do the same thing after Todd died. She’s fun.

Before I say who we’re fighting & since I can’t remember where I’ve said this… my Mom died suddenly a couple weeks ago. Ever since then, my aunt (her sister) texts me periodically to tell me how much she misses her sister & how sad she is like it’s my job to comfort her.

Ring Theory Helps Us Bring Comfort In A simple way to understand where you are in a crisis.

FYI: if you are in one of the outer rings of grief, you do not get to expect those in the inner rings to manage your grief or comfort you. Get grief counseling or something and leave me alone.

Started and stopped this a few times. Mostly lurk around these parts, but sharing anyway b/c I need to get it out. My Mom died suddenly yesterday. I am heartbroken and hurting so much both for me and my teen. It’s just not fair that they’ve lost 2 of their most important people before 18.

I’m also a big fan of putting the meatloaf mix into muffin trays because then you get perfect little ones.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

My downstairs neighbor is trying to shove a fully inflated air mattress into the back of his hatchback.
And now we all understand how he almost burned down the apartment building a while back.

See? This shit is why I'm not going to let up on Newsom or other transphobic Democrats: they might otherwise go the Labour route and plunge the country into full on transphobia as policy.

I just looked it up to make sure I got it right. French is the 5th most spoken (non-English) language in my teen’s school district. It’s Spanish, Arabic, Amharic, Vietnamese, and French. Schools often request books in French b/c most of their Vietnamese & African kids also speak French.

The formatting options are what’s annoying me the most. I specifically use Notepad because of the simple text with no frills. It doesn’t cause wonky formatting when I paste things from Notepad into other documents.

I drew a vampire quokka to distract from The Horrors. His name is Quokkula. He isn't very scary.

was just so weird. The most entertaining part is they only have my married last name so it should go really well looking for those records. Have fun! Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

& set an appt. They called today asking for surgery records. Y’all. This surgery was 40+ yrs ago. I highly doubt those records exist anymore. I asked my parents & they don’t have any. The nurse got mad & told me they need those records to know what happened. I’m going to talk to them, but it (2/3)
