Very excited to see Monet X Change on season 4 of the Traitors, where she will win over hearts, lose, come back for an all stars version and go all the way, winning with Peppermint.

Friendly reminder that causing a problem and then correcting or temporarily correcting that problem is not a success or something worth celebrating.

I credit working at a mental health facility for veterans for my openness to trust therapy can work

I went to both physical and mental therapy to address my pain

There were setbacks, but I gave myself more chances every time i went

Therapy works.

2 years ago, injury forced me to retire early from the Army

I was in terrible pain every second of every day. I considered giving up

I chose to 1st try therapy because I knew I didnt have the tools to handle it alone

Now I'm stronger than I was even pre-injury & Im so much happier

Dont give up.

Agriculture secretary cancels $600K grant for study on menstrual cycles in transgender men The Department of Agriculture canceled a $600,000 grant for the study of menstrual cycles in transgender men, Secretary Brooke Rollins announced Friday.

www.foxnews.com/politics/agr...

It took 30 seconds to see that DOGE just cancelled a study looking at the hazards of toxic metals being exposed to people while using menstruation products

just searching for "Trans" in databases and cancelling grants with no research is just plain transphobia

The dod is removing posts celebrating things like Black history or Pride because of a directive from trump and washington.

Most organizations are posting reflecting this change.

so naturally there is only one way to respond

Cant remove my comments

Sharing LGBTQ+ military content because trump doesn't want it online anymore.

The military is full of queer people and other diverse amazing individuals

Pentagon orders new purge of social media sites to dump diversity, inclusion mentions by March 5 The order requires all the military services to pore over years of website postings, photos, news articles and videos.

Landing Home from my last deployment I hugged my brother first, to measure how much I could hug my then boyfriend without outing myself

No veteran should ever have to do that

Restrain themselves from embracing a loved one after a year deployed

We can't go back

While in Afghanistan, I did considerable damage to my ankle that required surgery and a lengthy recovery to fix. No one ever accused me of being undeserving to serve because I wasn't combat ready.

They only do that to Trans service members because of transphobia

I proudly serve on the Veterans Equality review board

We recognize the service of Trans Service Members in Massachusetts & the service of diverse individuals

Any veteran from Massachusetts has the right to have their discharge reviewed & benefits restored if discharged based on their identity

Trumps trying to erase history of diverse people in the military

I refuse to be erased

Here i am with my date to the Infantry Ball. He would be listed as the guest of a female soldier friend. we could experience it together without risking being outed as a gay soldier

Happy to announce they are getting me in as soon as the can... in June and July.

Caught some good lighting coming out of the shower.

So this is apparently what I look like with no chest hair, had to shave it off for the heart monitor

Does this shirt make my heart monitor look big?

On sunday my smart watch alerted me to go to the ER as it detected i was in Afib, turns out it was right.

I feel fine now, and I get to be part machine for a few weeks. #Samsung

nice to see Linda McMahon have family support at her hearing

her husband couldn't be there

likely because its a bad look to have an accused sex trafficking rapist who pooped on a victims face support you

She stands by him and soon she'll be in charge of your childrens education #America

i say this because this is a challenge we will need to overcome as many rely on AI for information

AI struggles to grasp this nuance. Many laws donโ€™t explicitly say "minorities are illegal" but effectively make them so.

Being a drag queen isnโ€™t illegal, but maybe dressing in another sex clothing is. AI misses that there are many ways to skin a cat.
