I was studying ancient Egypt in elementary school, we learned about a Pharoah who wanted to be female, and made his doctors cut him a vagina. That has been in my brain since I was 12, that if you feel like you're in the wrong body, it's worth risking death and primitive surgery to try to fix it.

God, I still remember how awful that day felt...

I wonder how long the US Government will still have an Office of Civil Rights. Our rights seem to be disappearing so fast these days...

Hagan Scotten resignation letter

NEWS: Hagan Scotten, one of the SDNY attorneys prosecuting Eric Adams' case, has resigned ... and is blasting the Trump Justice Department on the way out.

If they were talking about the Catholic church I'd be happier, they're larger, more conservative and have done a lot more harm to this country.

It'd be nice if the Times stopped reporting as though his actions were sane, rational, or legal when they are none of those things...

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Hi!

I needed a cat today. Maybe someone else does, too.

Joan Plowright was a widow for nearly 40 years. During most of that time she was also a working actor, parent, and grandparent. Having the first line of her obituary be 'widow of Laurence Olivier' is just such crap. Her career was longer than his!

Cabaret lyrics in my brain...

Sharing following the news that federal courts are upholding bans on out of state travel.

Maybe their little parachutes didn't open.

First time out dancing in months. A few years ago, my friend Blair and I decided we didn't care if we were 'too old', we were going dancing. So glad we made that choice and kept going back!

For my first post, an excerpt:

“I had no idea you liked Pink Floyd.”  Giles said.

Spike frowned. “Thought this was supposed to be Slayer-related business, not a music appreciation society.”
