"Definitely going to actually get dressed today." I promise, while deciding which daytime pajamas to wear.

The irony of Kpop Demon Hunters being my idol right now.

I think the radioactive Walmart shrimp might fix me.

it's insane that out of all the trans people i know in the UK who are on HRT, not a single one gets it from a doctor

"Unlike you fools, I have never attempted to like or connect with art or artists, so I never need to process complex negative emotions."

If you are a fan of anything at all (tv, movies, music, art, books, sports, classic cars, embarrassed podcasters, crafting, cats and more), take my dissertation survey. I'm researching what work fans do and what they get in return. Please also share 💕 marquette.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Amanda Palmer:

if your favorite author is outed as a sexual predator and you come online talking about “its important to separate the art from the artists” i think you need to log off and never come online again

These women would appease and rationalise and try to convince themselves and others that there was not a rape. Nobody wants to be raped. To the point where victims will often try and think their way out of having been. Rapists take advantage of that. The article shows this in black and white.

Actually, this is why I think the detail that article went into was good, actually. And why I suspect that Gaiman's victims felt similarly. It's important for people to see the reality of rape, and how coerced and rationalising technicalities are pathetic sophistry in the face of it.

This is maddening

If you put the time of the day or the day of the week on the screen I will always put that information out of my mind immediately but I hope it was fun for you to do

Impossible to read Emilia Perez's award season as anything other than an enormous fuck you to the greatest year of trans cinema ever and a clear statement that trans people are not supposed to make art we're supposed to be the subjects of racist caricature

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

It’s cool that humans have been eating bread so long that when we touch a loaf for a moment we can sense ah this is going to be awful bread. Like badgers sensing vibrations underground through their claws.

Yes! Benefits of the US being basically a gaggle of independent countries. NY has put a ton of protections into law, there's limits to what can be taken away on a Federal level.

They are. The healthcare they get here was recently banned in the UK. Saw it coming a mile away, same as Brexit. For now, we're all safer and have a better chance of thriving here, even as The Horrors persist.

I couldn't bear my kids having to pray every day at school. Almost my whole family worked for the NHS, as did I. Among other things. Of course now we'd never come back permanently, they can no longer get the life-saving healthcare they need in England.

I mean, if a guy did this in front of me, I would marry him too. Congrats to Zendaya and Tom Holland for their engagement🙏

I need to write one for my work website and suddenly I have no memory of anything I've ever done.

My birthday is the 19th. We are fleeing to Europe.

Federal Court Rules In Favor of Forcibly Detransitioning Transgender Inmates In Florida Incarcerated transgender people were a major topic of debate in the 2024 elections. Now, a judge ruling on a Florida policy shows how cruel abandoning trans people in prison can be.

A federal court has ruled that Florida can detransition inmates.

Some trans inmates are having estrogen pulled, hair shorn, and put through state-run conversion therapy.

This is the cruelty of abandoning incarcerated trans people.

The bottom line is that if public health had stopped lying years ago and had been honest about the costs, and if public health had realized what the correct approach is, which is to slow evolution down, then we would have been in a situation today where public health was treating COVID as a disease that needs to be suppressed. The whole canard from day one was that we would never eliminate or eradicate it, so, let's let it spread as widely as possible. "Learn to live with it," for other diseases doesn't mean the same thing as we have applied to COVID. When we say we must learn to live with leprosy, we don't mean let's make sure everybody has leprosy. When we say we must learn to live with malaria, we don't mean let's make sure everyone gets malaria as often as possible, let's keep mosquitoes lurking in our tanks outside our house. No one says you must learn to live with tuberculosis. Let's let it spread as much as possible and see how that goes. No, we suppress those diseases every step along the way. We suppress dengue. We suppress tuberculosis. This whole idea that learning to live with the disease means permitting and encouraging its rampant spread and rapid evolution is just so many levels of stupidity that I don't have a word for it.

God damn GOD DAMN!! Man this interview is a breath of fresh air.

You inspired me to go find neon fur coats on Poshmark and it's making me so happy! 🥰

I found a loose gem on the floor and put it in my diamond art gem tray last night. Today, in daylight, with my glasses on, I saw it's actually a dead bug.

GOOD LUCK!!!
