If they want me back they have to go fully Woke 2, sorry. Whole hog. I gotta be able to get an abortion there

@laughlax.bsky.social I am terminally offline, so you may have seen this already, but it made me think of energysky

inordinately charmed by the hibernating mister softees

HRT should be available over the counter (the deli counter)

@sohumgpal.bsky.social I just came across columbialawreview.org/wp-content/u... and it's very well done, thank you.

Daughter: "dad, dad! At school today Jessica and I tried to get married, but Thomas said we can't..." Me, gearing up for 30+min talk w/ Socratic dialogue & external references: "Oh?" Daughter: "...because kids can't get married, they have to be grown-ups! And I agree!" Me: [gearing back down]

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

*Woodworking* by @emilystjams.bsky.social is like if *Glee* was ownvoices trans women's lit: 1) Erica is Will Schuester if she was a trans woman, 2) Any character in Woodworking could have a smaller inner life, sing more, and fit in *Glee*, 3) Mitchell, SD and Lima, OH ride the grim/fantastic line

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

5: "but Santa can't be real, magic isn't real" 7: "don't be silly! Santa has millions of drones, one per... child whose family celebrates Christmas! So, no spy drones for the Jewish kids, but, if a kid with two Jewish parents finds the magic of Christmas: drone!"

i fucking hate it when jinglehorse does not pick up his feet

I'm doin' my best It isn't enough I really can't feel, so I'm havin' to touch Santa Claus is coming to town

me (making remoulade) : this takes like 5 minutes.. why do I always put it off and think it's too much of a hassle? kids, after 23 seconds: "PAPA SHE SAID HER DOLL IS THE QUEEN, BUT I WANT MINE TO BE THE QUEEN, SHE CAN'T ALWAYS BE THE QUEEN, MY DOLL IS A BETTER QUEEN,

Second-grade daughter: "but WHY is the book called Gandertrash from Hell???" me: "Oh - that E is backwards, it's Gendertrash from Hell. Maybe it's called that to be edgy? So the cover will communicate, these trans people aren't trying to -" Daughter: "I don't think that's edgy *enough*, actually"

@progesteronipizza.bsky.social Just one thing (if it was me, I'd want everyone to STFU unless it's really helpful & not obvious) If you can get an Enhanced ID New York driver's license (not RealID, the tier past that), those let you cross the land border to Canada & are issued by state, not feds.

the most expensive part of transition is actually all the books

I have, and I do! I've done the sign-in helper shift a few times and would say it's easier than checkout at the co-op. Chips recipients vs. coop shoppers: equally polite, less chatty, receiving one of several items rather than tens in a set of thousands, & have their ID more ready to present

What's the last car you stopped to take a picture of?

One of my favorite anecdotes from THE PREHISTORY OF THE FAR SIDE: "That doesn't sound like the Jane Goodall we know."

1939

When my daughter was 2 she woke up from a dream, sobbing. She eventually got out that she was "afraid of the elephant". Over the next few days she explained that the elephant: - was sitting on a bench - looked at her - came towards her - tried to hold her hand - told her many things (?!?)

We had a great day in Brooklyn at @nyc-dot.bsky.social Summer Streets '25. Connected w/ local leaders @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & @bkbpreynoso.bsky.social, who we hope to see riding on the Bergen Bike Bus, getting kids to school in a safe, active & joyful way! Please join us for our 1st ride 9/10.

Possibly interesting to @joshuajfriedman.com : the Park Slope Food Co-op presently owns 19 unmatched left insulated rubber gloves, and 1 unmatched right insulated rubber glove (from an incompatible set) ???

Got Berenstained into the world where @scumbelievable.bsky.social 's last name isn't Falkner-Martin

new york is not about unequivocal fawning over israel, new york is the sound of the muezzin and the shabbos siren and the version of the mister softee jingle with the 808s in it, all playing at the same time

“Hey why don’t you like biking in NYC” Well

Saw you fellas at the Country Music Hall of Fame

I feel like I'm losing my mind. Here is the transcript of what Zohran Mamdani actually said about the phrase "globalize the intifada." This is his "refusal to disavow it." This is what has people terrified. Just fucking read it. Source: podscripts.co/podcasts/the...

Lander is on the hustle so hard he canvassed the ICE agents who arrested him

It's been more than a year since I first saw The Third Sex by @adamjrineer.bsky.social & co, but I cannot stop thinking about the ridiculous nerd who goes to a magazine stand, asks for a gay mag, is handed a copy of Die Insel (pictured), flips through... then goes back and complains (1/2)

@bradlander.bsky.social came and waved a rainbow flag at us while we were lined up waiting to march in the Brooklyn Pride Parade! He's the only politician I saw there in person this year, it was endearing.

We're printing the collected GENDERTRASH FROM HELL! ‼️ Pre-order today ‼️ There is material from an unpublished 5th issue!! And we have a deluxe pack with the buttons they used to make! ➡️ www.littlepuss.net/gendertrashp... ⬅️

at least Sisyphus didn't have little children continually telling him that he's pushing the boulder wrong and complaining that he's taking too long and saying that they want to push the boulder and fighting over whose turn it is to push the boulder

Congratulations @katiehonan.bsky.social on writing the best piece of predictive science fiction of all time

Making food accommodations is not a bother. It's what you do when you take on the responsibility of feeding someone. It's a profound honor to be able to take on that act of care. And fuck anyone who makes you feel otherwise.

This would fix me (malewife)
