The thing about terfs is no terf has a normal reason for being a terf

We are rewatching the L Word and I’m desperate to know if the people making the show know the difference between a manatee and a beluga whale or if this was a bit

“Died of sadness,” according to family. An immeasurable loss.

What an artist. There can be few comics creators who have had a greater impact than Marjane Satrapi has.

Persepolis - Eye of the Tiger (2007)

I dragged Lee to the LA County Fair because I had such fond childhood memories of rides and lights and fried food, and here’s the thing: the time may as well have not passed at all because 20 years later, everyone is dressed EXACTLY THE SAME

My favorite Star Wars fact is that the galaxy doesn’t have a name. That’s good worldbuilding BECAUSE it’s bad worldbuilding! Sometimes you forget to name something or the first person who gets there names it something stupid!! Anyway ours is called the Milky Way and who the fuck allowed that

No spoilers but I DID dream almost the exact plot of the final episode of Hacks over a year ago 🥲 I hope they didn’t mind me astral projecting into the writer’s room

Look here’s the thing. Somehow I did not realize that the Sheep Detectives was going to be a children’s movie

These 8 Democrats voted to pass a national ban on trans teachers and mention of LGBTQ topics. Rep Henry Cuellar (TX) Rep. Don Davis (NC) Rep. Cleo Fields (LA) Rep. Laura Gillen (NY) Rep. Vicente González (TX) Rep. Marcy Kaptur (OH) Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA) Rep. Eugene Vindman (VA)

I learned what getting mogged is and I find it highly destructive to the positive power of friendly competition!!! Also I can’t stop saying it

Great thanks so much

HR 2616, text below, just passed today in the House. Now it's time to call your Senators & tell them to vote NO ON HR 2616/S 2251 (and the very similar bills: HR 2617 & HR 7661 which aim to ban all trans books from every public school in the country!) www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

this was HR 2616 which also bans books by or about trans and nonbinary people from schools START CALLING YOUR SENATORS NOW CIS FRIENDS TRANS KIDS NEED YOU

Found this post on reddit and the last bit nails it: “Please don't remember her for the horrific end to her life. Remember her for who she was, a true blessing. To everyone around her.”

Nothing will make me scroll away faster than that plodding, condescending AI cadence and at this point I don’t even care if a human wrote it, it’s so boring and grating!!

Sensitive/hooded eyes gang: what facial sunscreen are you using pleeeeease I need help

Wow Devil Wears Prada 2!! The perfect movie for a gay man who is a lesbian. I’m personally very happy

Devil Wears Prada porn parody idea: Devil Wears Nada

Today’s warmup: studies of an inconvenienced cat

SCARLET MORNING by @gingerhaze.bsky.social A modern fairy tale that reads like a cross between The Golden Compass and One Piece. Magic, pirates, humor, heart. A fantastic book for all ages with emotional depth to match the whimsy. Rating: GIMME BOOK TWO RIGHT NOW / 10 #BookSky 🪐📚

Local thrift shops and fairs (big cities are great for this of course but humble shops can be treasure troves), eBay/etsy (I LOVE EBAY), or following vintage curators on Instagram! Build your wardrobe slowly, window shop to figure out your taste, and hold out for just the right pieces!

Little good things: - I quit Amazon Prime after relying on it for years and it was insanely easy - most of my clothes are vintage these days. I love wearing them and rarely buy new anymore - I really like the maximalist/romantic moment going on in fashion. Corsets look so good on everyone

I certainly did not expect to love the Arnold Schwarzenegger/Danny DeVito mpreg vehicle Junior as much as I did, goodness

A note I found yesterday while walking in Portland.

Every time I see someone talk about Claude I think about how they switched from female to male names as soon as they wanted the robots to seem like experts vs personal assistants.

Have you ever noticed that the massive, coordinated, multi-year assault on trans rights is based on NOTHING WHATSOEVER

To the driver of the car with the vanity plate “boys1ut”: first of all, icon, also how did you get away with this

Lee and I are taking a Spanish course together and it turns out I love night classes??? I love that everyone is there because they want to be and I love meeting people in different fields it’s COOL

As a former evangelical homeschooler, I never learned about dinosaurs. So sometimes at the immense age of 34 I encounter 5th grade-level dinosaur facts and get knocked on my entire ass

A very stupid thing that happened to me during transition was that a) I went up an entire shoe size b) but only on my left foot. The other one stayed the same. Why

Chirpy, our sweet little black cat we rescued from our backyard, is ready for adoption! He comes fully vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and with a clean bill of health, including dental! Help us find a home for his loud mouth here: tinyurl.com/chirpythecat

Transphobes on Instagram can be a great source of amusement because they will comment with their entire real profiles attached and that’s how you get gems like this

I always looked forward to Mey’s interviews the most, and her getting laid off after years at Out is such a loss for queer journalism in so many ways. Hire her right now, and I mean it

the girl guides in the UK just kicked out all their trans members specifically bc they were threatened with a lawsuit from a rowling-funded group

HELL YES READ RIAN’S COMIC

I joked to my husband that I was going to redraw the Broship of the Ring as gay scenesters and then I started with Gimli and I uh. Got too distracted to draw the rest

I finally saw Call Me By Your Name and I loved it and now I understand Timothee Chalamet just in time for everyone to be mad at him :(

Scarlet Morning has been shortlisted for the Indies Choice Book Awards 😭😭😭💖💖💖

42 people. millions of trans people are being tortured by their governments because of 42 people.

I open a can of mulched dinosaur (tuna) for the second time this week, increasing the amount of liquid metal in my blood. A miniature panther is screaming at me

GPS: in 100 feet continue straight :) Me: yes I was planning to do that GPS: in 50 feet continue straight :) Me: okay but what’s my turn though GPS: 20 feet straight :) GPS: 10 feet :) GPS: 5 :)) GPS: TURN NOW FOR GOD’S SAKE TURN TURNNNNNN GPS: now go east and west at the same time :)

Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful. Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Over the holidays I played Legos with my 4-year-old nephew and I watched him round up all the sparkly crystalline bricks while whispering to himself “Beautiful. Beautiful. Only beautiful things” and this has become a permanent part of my lexicon

There are two types of entries in my Notes app

Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
