This is how propaganda works. They slapped an image on this from Los Angeles in 1992 during Rodney King riots.

A book themes meme for Keeping The Peace by Tris Husband. The arrows say: "Public Corruption" "Problematic Sex" "Classic Noir Vibes" "Queer Cast of Rogues" "ACAB" "Heavy Drinking" "Sex Lives of the Blessed and Famous" and "Toxic Tragic Lesbians".

No actual writing today, but I spent time with a good friend from a different continent... She's helping me flesh out my setting and add things that help the story feel more alive and lived in... And getting that wide perspective really helps!

You know, fat-shaming "jokes" directed at ICE or the guard "because there are no rules anymore" accomplishes jack shit - except let your fat friends and followers know what you really think. Your intended targets aren't going to see it, and what would it accomplish if they did?

An artwork by spindle, the 4th entry in the "gock gang" series, showing 3 trans women characters. From left to right:
- Petra, a red-panda woman with a black hat and brown boots (with a gold accent on both). Petra's a tinkersmith and works on the currently expanding steam train engine in the setting (alongside many other characters I've drawn before, she works with Nettle, the owlfolk lady from a previous gock gang art)

- Pyxis, a half-elf woman with light blonde, very poofy hair. She's wearing a frog-shaped hat and bunny-shaped flats. Pyxis is a herbalist fortune teller, sister of Ameline (from a previous gock gang art as well). Bookworm, or at least pretends to be, she just collects many books and "yeah i'll get to reading them. Eventually."

- Noรฉmie, a human with green hair tied up into a bun, with 3 circular hair loopies. (don't question hair physics in my setting lmao). She's wearing a red mushroom-shaped hat with a lil green sprout on top (I FUCKING WANT IT IRL AAA) and regular ol' open sandals. Noรฉmie is a travelling merchant, charming and charismatic, definitely doesn't use said charm to emotionally blackmail and trick soft customers into buying her stuff, definitely, trust me im Merchant CEO

The Bluesky Head of Trust & Safety admitting that all posted images are processed through an AI autolabeller that presumably employees have no access to or control over? (And probably steals every image to be used in an AI โ€œartโ€ generator, who knows?)

Seriously, this is outrageously irresponsible.

Damn. This is amazing. ยฃ325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

This work proposed that individuals should have the right to change gender, to have the kind of body they desired.โ€

Thailand Group Orchiectomy Guide for Trans People A group travel guide for trans people seeking cheap orchiectomy surgery in Thailand. Includes costs, best timing, surgeon, travel tips, pre- and post-surgery care, and how to enjoy a safe, supportive,...

Do you want an orchi, and are you worried that you'll never be able to get one, either because of cost, or lack of access in your country?

Well earlier this year, some friends and I went to Thailand to get an orchi for as cheap as possible, and one of us wrote a guide on the process!

If youโ€™re thinking about being trans just do it.

Get the hormones, get your papers. Life is too short to do anything less than what sparks your joy.

If the therapists try to stop you, get it anyway. Your persistence is proof you need it.

I think we should be more worried about the murders of random fishermen.

The soldiers who followed those orders need to go to jail, along with everyone in the chain of command.

Not long ago -- in my lifetime -- all trans people faced unspeakable violence, including state-sponsored violence, for simply existing

And self-appointed gatekeepers made it as tough as possible for a person to transition.

Anyone who wants to bring back the gatekeeping also wants the violence back

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.โ€ These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

I did my undergrad thesis on the European witchcraze, and a key motivator in accusations and arrests was to seize the property of the accused

Stoking the moral panic to continue the arrests was very profitable for those in positions of authority.

Thereโ€™s no rule of journalistic neutrality that requires you to say something is โ€œunclearโ€ when that is objectively untrue. It would be illegal. Thereโ€™s absolutely zero ambiguity about that fact. Saying itโ€™s unclear is making a false statement in your reporting.
