Sometimes a student’s mom will be like “Brayden told me not to bother you but” and like, please listen to Brayden, he’s correct

I've got one somewhere from a library book sale in the early 00s, gotta dig it up

Update/Scoop— New guidance sent this AM to Kansas DMVs indicates licenses that previously had gender marker changed not actually invalid yet. However, internally DMV can see who is flagged, and keeping track of who has/hasn't come in to update. Seems about 300 trans/GNC ppl flagged across the state.

and also, you can never, ever, EVER find the original email you actually sent! just replies to that email! FOREVER!

I love that not only is Microsoft Outlook search completely useless - if you actually manage to find the email you're looking for, it will take days and days for it to actually load!!

We've had like three different object lessons in recent years on how electing this particular kind of asshole backfires immediately. And yet we press on!

Of course, if this wasn't a complete exercise in entitlement he would resign immediately, so he has to keep his pride intact or the whole thing falls apart

It's a tough competition, but I think the biggest Platner red flag for me is his total lack of humility. He seems aggrieved that people would question his Nazi tattoo at all; a sincere apology is completely out of the picture.

That sounds right, especially since these fools once again did not think about backlash. Didn’t work for them very well in 2022 and I don’t think it will this year either

All else aside, this law is very clumsily written and Kansas has the Supreme Court of a much more liberal state, so I’m optimistic here

I had some pasta and I’m much better, I hope the same for you

one of the things that sucks about how car-centric America is that you think you don't need a second car, and you get around fine with one car for ten years, and then that car dies and you are kinda fucked

If a white working class man is gonna vote Dem, he’s already voting Dem and has for years! The rest of them are ungettable

something in my brain allows me to completely ignore crushing problems until one of them completely buffers and actually becomes a problem and then i am mentally crushed by all of the problems at once

can we post again yet? because i need to post thru it

the NYT and The Atlantic are about as responsible for this as anyone, shamefully

dude i am also trying to post through a crisis and my posts are also getting deleted

Why am I in a position in my life where I need money and the best way to get it is to write another book?

Am I challenging myself, or just putting too much pressure on myself?

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying “this doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to “trans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.

This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.

If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.

please help trans kansans and their families, if you’re able. everything helps.

Oh hey, this sounds familiar encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/t...
