@samreich.bsky.social I want to know why you did a crossover with a copaganda show. Do you really want those fans at the expense of alienating your current subscribers?

Threads is being overrun by bots. I blocked almost 100 bots today alone. Is it like that over here?

I haven’t been on here for like a year. What’s it like?

Currently reading this book about trans misogyny, and woof it is not fun. But makes so much sense.

Why do we put off books we are so excited about? I do this all the time and haven’t read Heavenly Tyrant yet.

Trans people are really scared right now, so if you make a trans person’s life harder in any way rn you are part of the problem.

Do a nice post on threads about my trans wife and of course some bigot who doesn’t understand the difference between gender and sexuality comments to tell me, “no your husband is just gay.” 🤨
That’s laughable because we both hate men, so yeah she’s gay but she’s a gay woman. That’s how it works.

“Why don’t you just leave the US?”

Maybe if my wife could safely renew her passport we would.

I love black cats!

if you read this as a kid you’re gay now

I think those that live with the double, triple, quadruple issues of intersectionality have always understood:

Any suffering people in power do to one group, they will perfect it and do it to another.

When marginalized communities are being targeted, NO one is safe. It’s is only a matter of time

We need pics of the baby!

Happy Birthday, Angela Davis!

I need to read TEF soon!

This is the new way I’m making myself do series bc you are correct. As someone who used to read series as they come out, I can say it is wild and I can’t anymore.

This is a rather good point.

Anyone else not making starter packs bc the pressure of leaving someone out is too great?

You can start with Lisa. 😁

Bring back the real housewives wine era. Not enough housewives sit around drinking wine when they’re alone anymore.

Also do I get my $1.10 back that I paid to have you verify my information virtually bc no word on that?

WTF USPS?? In all the times I've changed my address with you, I have never had to go verify my identification in person. This is BS, and I don't have time for it.

So many, but my favorite rn is TJ Alexander’s new book, A Gentleman’s Gentleman, which comes out March 11!

The fantasy lover in me is so excited people want a recommendation post with fantasy books with trans main characters!!

You’re doing great!

I think I’m coming out of my reading slump, which honestly I don’t feel right calling it that. The past month I’ve been in fight or flight for all of my waking hours, so the slump I was in was all encompassing and more like a deep pit of despair. Alas I’ve climbed out and am reading again.

Despite these things this apartment was good to us as our first place in Oregon. We ran from Texas having never been to Oregon before. We signed a lease for this apartment sight unseen, and we weren’t disappointed despite its flaws. Landlords still shouldn’t exist, but for now we rent.

4. Not having any space for the four of us to spread out and have privacy. I’m finally going to have a bedroom that isn’t connected to the entire shared space. My mental health should improve even more.

3. The hallway from the elevator to our apartment is almost the entire block long, but we live right next to the stairs so everyone slams that door shut.

2. Everything being broken in common areas all the time even though we moved into the building as it was brand new. The security gates were broken at least 75% of the time we were here.
