7 children dead and it's barely a blip

in Case you want to know where my mood is right now (you probably dont) my listening has been alternating between Meadowlands by the Wrens and the Marathon soundtrack

Cool. I’m going To take a nap

this is all I've got today

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded. “This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.” www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

for the states with ‘drivers license‘ laws for trans people, the next logical step is criminalizing and rounding up people who are trans for any reason for fraud. Right? People get this, right?

my first collection of stories came out under my deadname almost exactly 20 years ago. I put my two collections out of print (w the help of Small Beer, ty Gavin) so I have complicated feelings about that book. But I am very fond of some of the stories too.

i'm glad big outlets are writing about the shit that's happening to trans people, but it would be nice if there was an opportunity for trans people to tell these stories so we don't have to do this dance of "will reading this make me dissociate a little"

Hey loves! They're turning my shit inside out next month (aaaAAAAA) and I'm gonna need a little help — it would mean sooo much if you could support and share my fundraiser to help this fruity little doll afford supplies and food and rent while in recovery and unable to work 💕 gofund.me/e6521596f 🏳️‍⚧️

Shoutout to everyone trying to regulate their parasympathetic nervous system today but — holy moly, friends — touching grass and somatic breathing techniques aren’t meant to be substitutes for goddamn institutional checks and balances.

Curtis Yarvin but Leftist, in other words.

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

game posting: playing Avowed now--it's fun! Expectation-setting helped a lot with this. Gorgeous, lots of great exploration. I usually haaaate 1st person POV actiony games but it works because the landscapes are so immersive. I have never played any PoE games but I might have to change that

I shouldn't be surprised that DemSocs have no idea how car washes work, since DemSocs don't work lol

I can't speak to the quality of this book but this kind of hagiography is catnip to the NYT. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/b...

Let’s learn together !

do you want "Catholicism but american" we invented that, it's called Episcopalianism and it's even more woke. all the priests are lesbians. good luck

At the Botanical Gardens, the GoatHead people snubbed the Great Wildebeest. The GoatHead people are worthless.

Let’s learn together !

Gaga Night!

part of this is weaponizing social justice talk, toxic positivity and maladapting ‘setting boundaries‘ to ‘immediately distancing myself from anything I’m vaguely uncomfortable about

Anyways, I think there needs to be a serious internalization of “trans women are women.” I think there is a deep lack of understanding of how transmisogyny is in fact misogyny. Trans women are marginalized women. The dual harmful societal fixation/erasure is the marginalized woman’s struggle.

This is what the bodycam footage shows at the moment the cop says, "There's a suspicious person in the yard" lmao

The new No Mans Sky update is pokemon because No Mans Sky is every game

Mantasy? You mean like Manimal? The 1983 NBC show? I'm just trying to understand here

dying for a @chucktingle.bsky.social book about 'mantasy'

Read this last night, still thinking about it. I find it upsetting & disturbing that they wouldn't just give her the money, and that so many people commenting on it don't seem to understand lifelong mental/chronic illness, or how precious peace is for writing paperpools.blogspot.com/2026/04/we-l...

Hi all, I've been struggling pretty badly lately and need help covering some costs right now, especially my back taxes. We also might need some work on our car, and I need to buy new glasses. Thank you all so much for shares and donations! It means so much to us. gofund.me/d8cd724ee

No Man's Sky just added mf'ing Pokemon www.polygon.com/no-mans-sky-...

Yeah so he is just going to keep doing the thing where we are in a constant state of uncertainty, confusion, stress, and tension because that is what abusive people do and the people who are in a position to address this are asleep at the switch.

i saw a tiktok about how doing open mics in childhood is a sign of vampirism and i can't stop thinking about it

Thinking of things that ended political careers in the past. Remember when Howard Dean yelled in a weird way??

"Why don't Americans–" Motherfucker, I live in Minneapolis

happy 17776 day everyone

All I'm saying is that I hope the Etsy/TikTok witches are pulling out all the stops tonight. The ngakpas, I need you all to dust off the ultra-secret, "break glass in case of emergency" chöd sadhanas, the ones that the good lamas tell you are only metaphorical. Layqas, up in the Andes, lock tf in

This is the hard part of alt hist. Figuring out what might survive despite the change and figuring out what you can put in as surviving just for kicks is part of the fun. Not thinking about it is the dangerous bit. And readers or watchers can tell which is which.
