& sometimes I’m the shouty sweary lady at the bar 🤷🏻 & I guess if people don’t want to send me clients or be a client because of what I said at a bar, I’m okay with that Are these discussions for everyone everywhere? No! & if other contexts come a knockin’, I’m happy to speak to my dumb jokes 🫶🏻

Sometimes I think about how radical transparency (& shitposting)may impact my credibility as a professional & then I remember the innumerable older white men at conferences that said shockingly sexist, racist, ableist, inappropriate shit while standing in a group at the bar TL;DR Bluesky is a bar

"without subjecting anyone to differential treatment." This is flatly false! Trans people with a passport that does not match with their plain appearance when presented to a border agent is subject to additional hassle compared to a cis person presenting a passport.

guys every 11/6 we should all go get a 6" from Subway but I'm going to cheat and go to Jersey Mike's instead

You might think this is a joke but my family ordered sandwiches to celebrate

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

"The jury — which feasted on sandwiches for lunch Thursday, according to a person familiar with jury lunches — deliberated the charges for several hours Wednesday and Thursday before delivering the verdict." okay NBC settle down

I wonder if RFK was worried someone was gonna ask him for medical advice

i was really hoping that canis lupus was a trending topic but yay knicks I guess, NYC having a banger of a week

"Every six months, Meta earns $3.5 billion from just the portion of scam ads that 'present higher legal risk,' the [Meta] document says, such as those falsely claiming to represent a consumer brand...That figure almost certainly exceeds 'the cost of any regulatory settlement involving scam ads.'”

Please donate or share to help 6 trans people establish new lives during this horrific administration <3

They know us too well

a lot of these assholes who shit on taking medication are overcompensating for being asked “hey have you ever considered medications?” And they just don’t want to be asked ever again Fellas I don’t care if YOU like meds but if you take Haldol from my favorite population there will be blood, no lie

someone got indicted on the basis of “transporting antifa materials” for allegedly transporting a box of ZINES THEY’RE PROSECUTING PEOPLE FOR DOMESTIC TERRORISM OVER ZINES

Jesus I see what you've done for others

I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.

People stop infantilizing food aversion (aka “picky eating”) challenge: Seemingly impossible

Word Of The Day: vertiginous (adj.) causing or experiencing the feeling that everything is spinning around

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

I'll bring the bread

It’s almost like if people tell you that to win you have to turn your back on poor people, or Muslims, or trans people, or immigrants, you can just say, “no, that’s immoral, we’re not doing that,” and keep doing good old fashioned organizing and campaigning and things will be ok

For those who don’t know, Lina Khan gave tech bros hell AND her ass to kiss when she was FTC chair. She was busting monopolies left and right. Gave Amazon and Meta the finger too. This is an EXCELLENT addition to his team.

I agree with this thread, but I also need to add one thing: The idea that progressives can't win in conservative areas? We need to challenge that, and after this election, we can.

Wow if Zohran can do that, maybe I, a fellow Millennial, can also run for office (immediately has emotional breakdown attempting to organize a potluck)

It’s 2027. I’m sitting on a NYC free bus. I missed my bus and the next one was 2 hours later. Half the people on the bus might not otherwise be able to afford their commute to work, if the busses weren’t free As I look out the window and breathe some fresh air, I see a hardworking Muslim family 🧵

bartering is anti-fascist

Hmmm, how about a Trans atheist forensic psych provider Autistic mom of an Autistic family who wants to eliminate capitalism, allow bartering on free busses, and abolish prison…?

Omg I’m dying 😂😂😂…so…So Emily Austin, a right wing 'influencer' who works for Bibi and the GOP, launched 'Hot Girls for Cuomo'. Guess who didn't bother to register the URL when she did that? What do you think Hot Girls for Cuomo dot com leads to now?... 😄 Enjoy. [ HotGirlsforCuomo.com ]

I have this one intrusive memory (where I can neither confirm nor deny the details) But when I think of it, despite how much of a horror movie it was, I’m proud of how I conducted myself Impossible circumstances, but I put the patient first in a situation where no one else was & I’m proud of that

if you see anyone expressing shock that a candidate who exudes warmth and authenticity and wants to improve the quality of life for working class people won over a rapist whose entire campaign was "that guys a terrorist" that's not a smart person. you don't have to listen to that person anymore.

Woof. I can’t listen to this, but you can and it will be very interesting It probably doesn’t get all the facts right but I won’t be listening I cannot Maybe I’ll find the transcript The men and women of NHDOC (both residents and employees) deserve better than this corruption & cruelty

that AuDHD urge to re-arrange furniture probably my partner's least favorite of my quirks 😅

Couple of questions for the people who said they'd leave NYC if Mamdani won... How much do you want for your apartment? And when can we come and see it?

"The most memorable line from Mamdani’s victory speech last night, the one that got the loudest cheers, was this: 'New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants—and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant.'” www.thebulwark.com/p/vive-la-re...

My favorite instance of this pharmaceutical naming nonsense so far is the progressive FDA approvals for the different forms of long-acting paliperidone: 2009 - Invega Sustenna (lasts one month) 2015 - Invega Trinza (three months) 2021 - Invega Hafyera (six months) 🫠 …c’mon now.

Recall on generic Vyvanse (lisdexamphetamine) see link for the dosage, manufacturer & dates impacted by the recall If impacted, your pharmacy ought to be reaching out but I'm sure you've waited in line at the pharmacy long enough to wanna check out the link & just make sure, y'know, just in case

A few years ago it was time for my 20th High School Reunion I knew I wasn’t going but it IS fun to think about what my classmates would think of me now an old friend pointed out that I’m a lot more impressive looking to the layperson now 🫠 “Come show everybody how far you’ve come!” I was big mad

hello it is 8:13 on Wednesday and I keep thinking it is 9:13 and being sort of relieved but also pretty uncomfortable tbh

On this Wacky Wednesday, call your reps and count for them all the wacky mistakes the government is making in obeying the constitution so we can all sleep better

The country has spoken. Get ready to drink some soy milk and hire minorities.

I hope Democrats unveil their new “TRANSGENDER FOR EVERYONE” policy tomorrow. America is ready.

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-) he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

I just had the thought, "Y'know, maybe I should go into politics." and so I've sort of ruined my own day is what I'm saying.

There are more of us than there are of them.

America’s Mayor!

We did it for you Dick Cheney

OK. Let's fucking go. Kat next.

It hasn't sunk in to folks yet how truly remarkable it is that Mamdani won. It's absolutely incredible.
