I'm not even mad

I will never get over America's comics spending the last decade giving trans people the shit Stephen Miller deserved.

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

Well I’m not a senator, so my powers of calling it into question are pretty much limited to writing and protest. But you could make an issue of it on the US Senate floor every legislative day.

I got about forty five minutes of uninterrupted computer gaming time this long weekend. Played more of Baldur's Gate 3. I also installed a MeshCore repeater on my roof, which took some work, but you know. Gaming. Things to take my mind off the darkness.

If anyone works at major HR firms and platforms (Salesforce, Workday, etc.) and has info about what drove adding these questions to job applications in the last few months my DMs are open and my Signal is SydneyBauer.30 You will have anonymity.

To the tune of "John Brown's Body" (🧵): Renee Good's body lies a-frozen in the grave (x3) Her soul goes marching on Glory, glory, Hallelujah (x3) Her soul is marching on

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

Can't fire the Fed governor? Try this one weird trick!

What, and I do mean deliberately, the fuck?

Well #MiniSquish, did you have a great winter break? Ready to fly back to the normal routine? I bet you're real glad you get a plane that's pressurized and has a heated cabin. Not sure the Mitchell would meet your exacting fox standards.

Hey #MiniSquish, did you find my lost shaker of salt? Happy New Year from the little fox and his handler!

Happy New Year!

The sun has set on 2025 for the last time in Western Australia. Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and safe New Year, I hope 2026 brings exciting adventures and opportunities. Happy New Year 🥳 #sunset #newyear #wildoz #Perth #WesternAustralia

I love my new weird Folgers Incest Commercial pin.

I wish a single journalist or leader would reach out to me I have the scientific expertise, lived experience of a trans person, and am literally a science communicator for my career I'm willing to explain this even though I know it will decrease my personal safety!! bsky.app/profile/jeym...

Primary those Dems, and get them the fuck out.

Such hateful, petty, bigoted trash bags. Their hate will never erase the history she made.

These mother fuckers…

The United States welcomes human traffickers like Andrew Tate, but it defintely does not want you if you have ever worked to keep child pornography off the internet. A strong statement of what passes for American values, I guess.

Christophe Brocas' excellent post today caused me to think a bit about that period in 2014 and 2015 where we built Let’s Encrypt. There’s not much (certainly by comparison!), but I scribbled some notes on my blog, too: insufficient.coffee/2025/12/03/r...

day 1 is "penzeys revolution blend" and i cant stop laughing at "we have to GET RID of this lying, cheating, CORRUPT SCUMBAG PRESIDENT!! RESIST! REVOLT! REVOLUTION NOW!! good on roast poultry and carrots"

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism. Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

Partner thinks I need to set out a jar into which I have to put a dollar each time I inappropriately apologize for things. I think realistically it should be a high interest savings account because why not get a yield on the large amount of money I'll be stuffing into this thing. Also, density...

Achievement: confused two people at Safeway as to my gender in one trip Butcher: "Sorry ma'am, err, sir?, err... uh, we sold out of the small turkey breasts yesterday" Other shopper: "Excuse me sir. Err, ma'am? Sorry ma'am." #enbywinning

Huh. A volcano in Ethiopia where there is no record of eruption for about the last ~10,000 - 12,000 years (short on geological timescales) erupted and there happened to be an Earth Observing satellite overhead at the time to catch it! [alt-text: images showing volcanic plume rising from eruption]

#Wisdom is back! The world’s oldest known living banded bird, Mōlī (Laysan albatross) queen, has returned to Kuailhelani (Midway Atoll). #Birds

WE FOUND IT! We trekked day and night through tiger-patrolled Sumatran rainforests accessible only under permit for this: Rafflesia hasseltii. Few people have ever seen this flower, and we watched it open by night. Magic.

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics. This is shameful.

12 Nov 2025 -- With TDOR coming up, A4TE's 2025 Remembrance Report documents 27 deaths last year + 21 suicides, with 61% of the latter from age 15 to 24, which it directly connects to the Right's crusade against on trans youth. Hug a trans kid today. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

Ah yes, good to know my passport must perpetually be at risk of revocation.

I called Sen. Kelly yesterday and Sen. Gallego today... This isn't good enough.

"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.

Today we note the passing of a real Dick

While definitely an emergency, classifying this one as an Extreme threat is just going to lead to lots of people shutting off all emergency alerts. Because it's 5:30a on a Sunday. Maybe this should have gone at the same severity as Amber? #arizona #sos #alert

At this point they need Mamdani’s endorsement more than Mamdani needs theirs

Amonth after winning a landslide election, Adelita Grijalva still can't get to work — because the House hasn't seated her yet. And she'll likely remain in limbo, with Speaker Mike Johnson keeping the House out of session for a fifth consecutive week. www.tucsonsentinel.com/local/report...

Tempe strong! Medias Mighty!

Amazing turnout in Tempe!!

#NoKings #NoKingsDay Hard to get scope of attendees, but good turnout in Tempe. Chosen park flooded, so turned into peaceful march over highway.
