This is part of what I remind people regularly is that you have to have a safe place to go to. Our HOA literally sawed down the basketball hoop cause the president “didn’t like kids cussing behind his house”. Now it’s a patch of cement and invasive weeds and I’m annoyed.

Every book we've written after 2018 exists because Beverly Jenkins sent a text message to help us out and I will forever be grateful. She's been there for so many of us, while being a legend.

A reason to not go near big fireworks displays... If for any reason your lungs notice things more? Have you had serious bronchitis, C19, pneumonia, repeated bad chest colds? Inhaling the fireworks chemicals could cause you to stop breathing. Happened to me. Fortunately it wasn't anaphylactic. 1/

Aside from the things I want to bid on, looking forward to when my buy it now quearrings and pride necklaces show up on the @romancingthevote.com auction

Oh, I really like this quilt. Unfortunately, the bids are beyond my budget. Someone is gonna get this gorgeous skull and be so happy.

I hate checking the news every day in order to find out whether I still have the remaining human & civil rights I had last night and/or what atrocities my kleptocratic, 'Christian' dominionist, white supremacist, homo- & transphobic, misogynist, lying sack of wasted carbon of a government has done.

Still plenty of spirals to choose from! Who wants to snap one up while I organise my stash? oishiny.etsy.com I'm 9 of 40 pendants towards my birthday goal. #Handmade #Goals #DisabledArtist

Voting will not solve everything. It is not the sole solution. There are no easy solutions to any of these things anymore. But it IS necessary, and we are going to fight for the right to vote for as long as it is being unfairly denied.

Donald Trump does not decide who is American. The Supreme Court affirmed a defining principle of this great nation: If you are born on American soil, you are an American.

It certainly is fun living in an era where we’re one judicial heartbeat away from having no ostensible legal protections.

5-4 on the Constitutional question? What the fucking FUCK.

if you're trans, you have to live. one day you can live to see these guys all die.

If my BlueSky experience is an echo chamber, at least it's an echo chamber that says "Change is possible," "This is how we win," and "Look at my cat."

July is Disability Pride month. July is also Gay Wrath month. Let us disabled queers be proud and wroth!!! 🏳️‍🌈⚡😡😊

My only contribution to this is taking the pictures and autographing them when the time comes, and I'm gonna be so mad I have to send them away. They are SO BEAUTIFUL! 😍 www.32auctions.com/organization...

my favorites list at @romancingthevote.com is so long there are SO MANY amazing things up this year

Oh My God, I have just learned what Chronic Wasting Disease in deer is and how it works. If you want a fiction-based analogy, this is a Seanan McGuire / Mira Grant disease. This is a Sherri Tepper eco-nightmare. I had no idea. IGNORANT NO MORE. Holy fuck.

There are 30 spots left!!!!!

The Varanid Paradise mini drop is heeeere! 💎🦎 Four beautiful new items I made this week, threading below to tell you about all of them! (Though of course, feel free to vamoose to Varanidparadise.com!) #bsnm #jewelry

Poor Toby. Our 14-yr old cat has vet visit this morning. He’s terrified when we leave the house, usually peeing on himself between the kitchen and the car. Hoping for more signs of diabetes remission and the introduction of kitty arthritis meds. (He’s had issues since he was 3)

This offering from a Whistle Goblin was so large I had to take it outside to photograph it. It scoffed at the confines of my otherwise generously sized light box. Someone is going to win an incredibly cool fantasy box and hide ALL THEIR TREASURES IN IT!!!!

If you're a young trans man or trans masc person who needs a dad today, congrats. I am your dad now. I am proud of you and what you've accomplished although some of your young person culture and choices perplex me. I am proof trans men can be middle aged married dudes. You can be too some day.
