During a particularly difficult time in my life, Ive seen and been in the midst of the resistance... and it was inspiring ... and it was good.

Ive been inspired to fight for others once again. 🥰

Love the pose!

In India, Ardhanareeswara, the half-male and half-female form of Shiva, is worshipped. But why would such a country abuse hijras? How could those of you who have read the story of Shikandin in the Mahabharatha refuse to understand hijras? Are basic human rights meant only for males and females? Aren’t hijras human enough to enjoy those rights? Aren’t we citizens of this country? Don’t we deserve to get voting rights, passports, driving licenses, ration cards and property rights? How justified is it to say that since I was born a male, I can get access to all these only if I remain a male? Don’t I have the right to reassign my gender identity? Why do you refuse to understand me and my emotions? I did not purchase these emotions; nor did I borrow them. I was made thus by nature. Respect that. Recognize me as a woman and give me all the rights due to a woman. This plea for equality and human rights for transgender people has been the pivotal point of my transgender activism. Myths and misconceptions about gender and sexuality have spread like poison in our society. We urgently need an antidote for this. I am a trans woman.

Oh hell yeah, we're already cooking with gas 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I thought your oc was the pop tart 😬

I will take my participation trophy now.

Why look for reason with the unreasonable?

Tomorrow marks the end of my 3rd year at my current job.

Someone from the HR department will most likely come over and drop off a 3-year pin and ... that's it. No bonus, no rate increase, no thank you from my HR rep.

A pin.

... It makes the idea of moving to another country tempting.

... and it's on a huge screen on repeat.

Happy Unbirthday, @bowserpuma.bsky.social !!!

I'm a little late (I know), but happy pride! 🌈

Hope y'all are feeling just a hair safer and proud this month.

HB 3225 is dead. Texas teens maintain the right to read freely in their local libraries.

Grassroots organizing, coalition building, and individual Texas students, authors, parents, librarians, & public library supporters using their voices WORKED.

Not sure if it's linguistically accurate, but I wanted y'all to know I asked my boss if she "wanted a throuple of bacon" and she immediately understood. 🐖

Let's not kid ourselves. It's Monday.

I can't believe you're that good at League of Legends. 1v1 me, pleb! 🤣

988 & 911. Both provide critical support but focus on different crisis types. 988 specializes in behavioral health crises, offering crisis counseling and emotional de-escalation, while 911 addresses physical dangers needing police, fire, or EMS.

If you need help but aren't sure who to contact, you can text, call, or chat with 988 for mental health, suicide, and substance use issues. For emergencies that involve immediate physical danger, call 911. Knowing the right number to call makes a difference.

I understand the urge to dunk as if she's ill-informed, incompetent, or otherwise deficient, but she knows exactly what she's saying and why she's saying it.

To paraphrase Upton Sinclair, you can't get someone to understand a connotation when their identity depends on their not understanding it.

Blue Prince? Pfft. I'm Pickle Prince.

Not really 😉

My department has been waiting for "the other shoe to drop" and it took us about an hour and a half to realize we ... are ahead of schedule.
