As a trans woman who is proudly anti-fascist, I'm just wondering if Trump designating me a terrorist TWICE cancels out? Am I back to upstanding citizen? Or am I a SUPER DUPER terrorist?

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Bad endorsement from @petebuttigieg.bsky.social here. As someone who spent 14 years living in Seattle, I can say that @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social is by far the better choice for Seattle mayor. www.seattleforkatie.com

Just wait: Tylenol's gonna pay Trump $10M, and he's gonna come out next week saying that actually it's Advil that causes autism.

I did some sword training at Missoula Ren Faire today. Now just don’t let the FBI see or they might label me a terrorist 🫠

So glad we've finally got a Ren Faire here in Missoula 😭 It was so much fun, and our kiddo even got to fight in an arena (with foam swords)

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

I don’t think people truly understand the ascendency of fascism in this country right now. This is an abhorrent, but not surprising, proposal given the rhetoric and actions of the Trump regime and its far right supporters.

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.

Political violence is abhorrent. I have not celebrated Kirk's death. But Newsom calling for his followers to "continue Charlie Kirk's work," someone who praised stoning gay people as "god's perfect law," who called for men to "take care of" trans people like they did in the 50s and 60s, is not it.

It’s ren faire season again!

Ok it’s cooler from this angle

can’t lie the texas democratic party are cooking with this, this is insanely good news

Day 21 of our Honeymoon: Erin & I watched the sunrise over the Mediterranean, then caught a 10-hour flight stateside. Now to start what we're jokingly calling our "Half-Moon." We'll be working from the road for a few weeks, traveling w/ our son for his summer break, visiting friends and family.

Day 20 of our honeymoon: @erininthemorning.com & I spent the last full day of our honeymoon in love & bliss. We got a couple's massage in the morning, napped, read, then visited Nice for a stroll. Then we closed off the night w/ dinner on a cliff face as fireworks went off over the Mediterranean.

Day 19 of our honeymoon: This was the quietest day yet. We went to a beach club & relaxed all day. Erin read her book (Stormlight Archives), and I "tanned" (an impossibly difficult task for my marshmallow self). We swam in the ocean a bit too, following around fish. Then, a quiet rooftop dinner.

Day 18 of our honeymoon: We drove from Cassis to Cannes, where we swam at a beach for a few hours before exploring town and grabbing the Frenchest dinner ever—escargot, fatty oysters, & dover sole. Also, Erin finally gave up on France's lack of spicy food and brought her own hot sauce to dinner 😅

This isn’t just the regular Cote d’Azure… It’s the

Our D&D group is playing Daggerheart while we're away, and I miss them so much. I literally talk about TTRPGs with Erin every day over dinner. 😅

Day 17 of our honeymoon: Today we hiked the calanques outside of Cassis, and omg that was the coolest experiences ever. A deeply challenging hike up & over some very Arizona/SoCal-type terrain, which led us to a deep inlet on the Mediterranean. We swam, tanned, and dove with some little fish 🐟

Day 16 of our honeymoon: Arles: from Ligurians to Phoenicians to Greeks to the Romans to French, the city was steeped in so much history. Erin & I spend the day walking between Roman & medieval architecture, exploring paths that monks & Vincent Van Gogh shared. We easily could've spent a week here

Democrats when they tell me to "vote blue no matter who" after nominating Milquetoast McAntiTrans to the top of the ticket.

Day 15 of our Honeymoon: We continued south for a day trip to Marseille. From amazing museums to the old port to the young French queers shouting "Free Palestine" with me—I fell in love w/ Marseille! Afterward, we settled into our hotel near Cassis, ate food, and prepped for tomorrow's adventures.

I don't know why jumping into the water from a cliff is so fun, but I always love it. And a fun little Zooey fact is that back in college, cliff jumping (& bridge jumping) was how I conquered my fear of heights 😤

Day 14 of our honeymoon: We rented a paddle boat & took it into the river at the Gorges du Verdon. The canyon was stunning, and there were cliffs to jump from! Erin & I swam/ jumped for hours. It was so fun! 😭 That evening, we walked Moustiers-Saint-Marie and had dinner overlooking a waterfall.

Day 13 of our honeymoon: Off to a new Provence! We left Briancion & headed towards Provence-Alpes-Côte-D'Azur. We drove through the beautiful Route des Grande Alpes, and then through the equally beautiful (though terrifying) Col d'Allos. Now to spend the next couple days in the Gorges du Verdon 🥰

Day 12 of our honeymoon: We had a quiet day for real today. We went to the hot springs, where we also got to do a 3-part Calderium, Tepidarium, and Frigidarium experience. My skin has felt amazing all day, I loved it. After that, it was just 2 delicious meals and some much needed quiet time. 🥰

Day 11 of our honeymoon: Our planned "quiet day" quickly turned to adventure. We did some exploring of Briançon's inner city, then went to the Parc Ecrins for an 8km hike to an Alpine Lake. Then we ended the night at a beautiful little restaurant where we chatted with the owner (in French, yay!)

It turns out the solution to my French struggles was to go to a tiny restaurant & excitedly talk to the owner whose daughter was visiting New York. I used more French tonight than I have throughout the rest of the trip, and it was so much fun. Briancon and the Park Ecrins have been amazing!

The hardest part about practicing my French in France is that I never really get to have conversations. You get interactions—shops, hotels, restaurants, etc.—but they're all transactional w/ limited scope. I'm not fluent enough to have a full conversation, but god I wish I could practice that way.

Paragliding was one of the coolest things I've ever done. Towards the end, the pilot asked if I was comfortable doing some tricks (I said yes, obvi) So he had us doing some wild turns & loop-dee-loops. It was my favorite part 😭 @erininthemorning.com are already talking about when we can go again.

Day 10 of our honeymoon: We said goodbye to Annecy today & what a goodbye it was! Paragliding over the lake that we spent the last week exploring. Afterwards, we grabbed lunch in Grenoble with some folks from a trans org. Then took the scenic route to Briancon, where leg 3 of our honeymoon begins.

Day 9 of our honeymoon: We drove to Chamonix for the day, where we went to the top of Mont Blanc, stood in a glass box on top of the world, and even hiked some trails. The views were absolutely stunning, though it was a little surreal hiking where there is no risk of running into a bear. 😅

Day 8 of our honeymoon: Paragliding was cancelled due to weather, so we wound up w/ another quiet day, which turned out to be a gift. We got a couple's massage, took a much overdue nap, then did some shopping in Annecy before drinks and dinner. I also had my first full-speed French conversations!

Zooey and I spent the day yesterday cycling through the French countryside to the Gorges Du Fiers, a place carved into the earth with a perilously placed catwalk a hundred feet above the surging water underneath. It was divine.

Day 7 of our honeymoon: - Took a wildly difficult bike trip out to the Gorges du Fier. But the views of the slot canyon were easily worth the pain. - Dinner at La Table du Yoann Conte (⭐️⭐️ Michelin). The food & presentation were enthralling (almost ritualistic), and the sommelier was unparalleled.

Day 6 of our honeymoon: We took a quiet day in Annecy. I got a facial in the morning, then we just read some books in the hotel and strolled around Annecy a bit (3 different trips into town for meals). This was more of a Zooey-style vacation day. I'm a sucker for quiet, meandering days.

Having grown up in Montana, Annecy is fascinating to me; it's equal parts foreign & familiar. I keep telling Erin that I feel like we traveled 5,000 miles to end up in a medieval version of Whitefish, Montana 😅 Given how much I love Montana, I'm not surprised that people fall in love with Annecy.

Day 5 of our honeymoon: - A 25-mile bike ride around Lake Annecy, full of stops for swimming & food. Also, @erininthemorning.com loved the e-bike and looked so graceful on it. Meanwhile, I had no e-assist and was working my ass off like John Henry trying to prove my worth over the machine.

God I love France so much. What a beautiful gorgeous country. We are just biking through mountain lake town after mountain lake town, about to go for a swim, and it’s just incredible views and weather everywhere where we are.

I'm noticing that there is a marked difference between my french level when I first wake up and my french level after I've had my first coffee ☕️ Notably, this is a problem when I'm trying to find where the coffee is 😅

Day 4 of our honeymoon: - 6 hour drive through the beautiful French countryside - Checked into the hotel where the housekeeping decorated our room with rose petals - an evening stroll along Lake Annecy - ate an amazing meal made of melted cheese, potatoes, and charcuterie 🤤

You can fly to France, drive deep into the Alps, and still you're never far from home. 🌭

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.

Last breakfast in Paris before heading off to stage 2 of our honeymoon (Annecy). What a blessing it's been to start our honeymoon here. Now for a 6 hour drive through the French countryside.

Day 3 of our honeymoon: - Victor Hugo Museum - Musée Carnavalet - a legislative work meeting 😭 - the best meal of my life at Épicure (⭐️⭐️⭐️ Michelin restaurant) This was the first day that Erin and I had together just the two of us. And it was a beautiful exploration of the city together.

Day 2 of our honeymoon: - breakfast over the Seine - massages & facials - lunch with amazing trans & intersex activists from Brussels - private tour of the catacombs - dinner & drinks with a D&D friend Day 2 was every bit as magical as Day 1. And I feel like I'm gonna be saying that every day.

Great evening with Erin, Zooey, Anaïs, and Leïla chérie! First la Mutinerie, then la Villa Papillon, a delicious Thai restaurant owned and run by trans women. Happy honeymoon! 💜💙💚💛🧡❤️

Day 1 of our honeymoon is in the books, and what a way to start. Drinks with @yoshaiglesias.bsky.social, her partner, and the amazing Anais Perrin-Prevelle (director of OutTrans) Then watching the fireworks at the Jardin du Trocaderos, which was just as amazing as the new friends we made.
