🧵Ok. Ableism 101: A person who is psychotic is "experiencing psychosis." Psychosis is an umbrella term for any symptomatic disconnection from reality. Psychosis commonly results from a myriad of mental or physical illnesses, as well as use of certain substances, both natural and synthetic.

I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

www.tjcuthand.com/2025/12/22/t... Sometimes I ramble on my blog. Today my ramble includes things about learning to play guitar, my beading progress, and thinking about my Grandpa who would have been 107 years old yesterday if he didn’t die at the more reasonable age of 99 (I think? Maybe he was 98?)

Regular reminder that the majority of the people who dreamed up the stories you love are, like, BROKE broke, and that most of the money spent on their work was given to Some Guy™️ instead.

I hate seeing the nutritionist. I’m usually poor! Just tell me how to eat gruel that tastes kind of nice. No I'm not putting away the butter and maple syrup!

Ugh I gotta wash my sheets today they fucking STINK omg.

I just saw someone yell “they’re just using it to generate ideas!” And I hate to say it But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas Quit.

At the HHS announcement yesterday announcing proposed rules to ban GAC, they said trans people are "at the root of the evils we face" and are "a hatred for nature as God designed it and for life as it was meant to be lived.” Just in case you thought it was about concerns for proper healthcare.

When I was a kid this journalist went with my mom and I to see Pocahontas and get my thoughts and I think I said something like “why did they have to sing a song about savages?”

This administration specializes in fearmongering, not facts. The facts: 86% of trans youth report s*cidal ideation and 56% have attempted to end their lives. Anti trans laws increase attempts by ~72%. <1% report regretting GAC. If they are trying to protect children, science says they are wrong.

Are you fucking kidding me

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

forever mad that Dick Van Dyke is the name of a Real Human Person and not the stage name of a transfemme porn star.

It feels like we have allowed cruel people to set the tone for humanity. It’s disturbing.

My family traditionally places a black stone on our graves. One time in a manic episode I was failing spectacularly at quitting smoking and doing harm reduction by buying cigars instead of cigarettes (I know it’s ridiculous) the smoke shop lady offered me a cigar called Black Stone. Ahhhhhhh!

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔 A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice. Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️

California can't be trusted. You're not a thought center if you're drought prone, and your economy relies on growing almonds and building data centers. That's like Sims City game over shit

happy 100th DVD, keep living the best life

Kill fascism, fund a trans filmmaker. Here is my patreon: patreon.com/tjcuthand

I honestly can't think of an issue where my mind has been more thoroughly changed by listening to people on social media. While MAiD is something that in principle I'd support, it's not possible to have it as a truly consensual option under current systems- something I learned from disabled folks.

An important read medium.com/@missfredawa...

My film career broke my heart. That fucking sucks.

Jesus and I have something in common, we were both born homeless.

It's so fucked up to have been a kid during the D&D is the devil freakout and the Tipper Gore dirty lyrics freakout and live to see the teen suicide machine get such a pass.

www.tjcuthand.com/2025/12/10/p... On why I am partially retiring from filmmaking next year.

SO! I would like to have a conversation about how filmmakers and media artists are expected to continue with our practices if our funders are failing to meet our needs. What do people suggest we do to continue being able to produce? Seriously I want answers.

I wish I could be one of those people that always has softness in my heart, but the world has not been soft to my heart.

I got one travel grant from the ISO and one artist in residence position this year (and finished another artist in residence position). What I did NOT get was: A Canada Council travel grant, a Canada Council Composite Grant, an ISO grant, a Toronto Art Council grant.

All the Natives when someone who follows Lakotaman1 is like "but I learned so much from him" and it's like "ok, what do you THINK you learned so I can correct that information and correct course here".

One thing Gwen understands more than most about the Texas and Oklahoma crack down on trans people existing in the university is that this is part of a broader movement by TPUSA and astroturf right wing groups to push society to make having a job while being openly trans impossible again.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics. It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT. It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse. Transgender care saves lives.

I’m out of toilet paper and don’t get paid until Thursday! Help an Indigenous trans dude out etransfer PayPal [email protected]

Watching people become extremely attached to using ChatGPT to write for them has impressed on me the importance of developing enough self esteem, to not feel like you need your thoughts to be co-signed and composed by a machine. Nobody believes their thoughts are good enough. They probably are.

Fuck DOGE and fuck Elon Musk.

Water Pie the next day! The verdict is that it was pretty good! Kind of like a butter tart but the taste was not as strong. If I’m poor and needing pie again I’ll make it in the future.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand” Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

I have been curious for a couple weeks so I made a water pie today. Tomorrow I can let you know how it is. I’m surprised it came out looking this good.

every trans suicide is a murder every trans murder is a policy consequence and the bodies keep piling up as the elected officials who today tell us they care about us — ALL of them. — still label the hate against us as a “distraction” sorry, the funeral i went to last week was not a distraction

I have been taking singing lessons for a few months and I am getting better but keep picking songs kind of out of my range. I can do Do I Wanna Know by the Arctic Monkeys ok, but I decided to try learning Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John.

wonder if this could have anything to do with the British press running a 24/7 hate campaign where typically a single newspaper might contain 3 anti-trans stories *a day*

Tell your therapist ONE TIME about going soft in bed as a trans dude and you will get erectile dysfunction medication ads for the rest of your life.

She gets all the flowers. I mean ALL of them. If we see her, we immediately have to give her flowers.

I interviewed someone for a documentary and it lead to all this research this week on wildfires and today in therapy I’m not sure if I actually worked on myself, but my therapist knows a lot more about wildfires.

All Kamala Harris had to do to beat Trump was stop being complicit in genocide. She chose genocide instead. Stop blaming leftists for refusing to accept that this is in any way okay, and start blaming the actual fucks in power.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
