Two photos set side by side. On the left, a girl in a red graduation cap and gown and a femme presenting person in a collared shirt and vest. Their smiles don't reach their eyes. On the right, the same two people in a similar position. The femme presenting one in the vest now masculine with facial hair in a t-shirt. Both smiling larger with it reaching their eyes, both visibly more relaxed.

A set of photos 18 years in the making. Last night I got to visit with a friend who I knew starting in Jr. High. 18 years after her graduation and a lot of growth led to this moment. What stands out to me is the shining happiness from both of us once we learned and started living our truths.

Hank, TT went dark while I was scrolling so I opened BlueSky and there you were at the top of the feed. I followed you on TT so of course I'll choose to follow you on here.

A screenshot of a screen with the TikTok app open reading: "TikTok is temporarily unavailable We're working hard to resolve this issue Thank you for your patience. Close app"

TikTok updated the notification this morning. Wonder what prompted that...

Interesting. I was on mobile data and even tried a VPN but couldn't get through.

A screen shot of the tiktok app with a notification reading: "Sorry, TikTok isn't available right now A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can't use TikTok for now. We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office. Please stay tuned! Learn more Close app"

Caught the moment #TikTok went #dark for US users. Upon reloading, I got the notification. If TikTok goes to #Meta it's dead to me regardless of the outcome.

My last Meta post before deleting Meta accounts. Hoping a week or so will give enough time for people to see it and reach out. Posting here for posterity.

A picture of an almost full moon with surface texture on a solid black background.

Caught this beautiful waning gibbous shot last night.

AIPAC and Meta tbh. Meta can't stand being outcompeted. Reels and Facebook stories don't hold a candle to tiktok
