The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025! survey.gendercensus.com It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

And that’s TIME on #Quest4Quet! Thank you to everyone because with your help we raised $2,300 for @traineranade.bsky.social, @arrya-love.bsky.social, and Quetzalcoatl. The importance of service animals is more than you could ever know, and because of YOU, Quet can help Anade live their best life! 💜

Starting TONIGHT, we are introducing Quest for Quet, a mutual aid speedrunning marathon benefitting @traineranade.bsky.social so that they can afford to train and raise their new service animal, Quetzalcoatl! Come join at Anade’s channel and help support and donate if you can! Schedule in replies!

My (hopefully) next service dog is coming home Sunday and some wonderful folks are helping put together fundraising to help. The event will run July 25-27 and the schedule can be found at horaro.org/qfq/schedule. It will be streamed on twitch.tv/traineranade . #mutualaid #servicedogintraining

Sometimes it's better to stay quiet! During Rack & Slay, @traineranade.bsky.social met an untimely death thanks to @selcouthmind.bsky.social 's comment about traps. We still have more runs today before the event ends, so check out the schedule at horaro.org/l4lg/schedul... !

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. It exists to remind us of those those in our community we have lost to violence, which trans people are four times more likely to experience than cis people. This is our reality: bigotry, harassment, and violence are ever-present, and yet we still find joy.

Always 💖 Don't make me tap the sign

*chip bag opens two rooms away* Sam:

I'll be going back to hosting Passion Project next month after being on medical leave for a month and will be looking for runners! Please consider submitting! I am not invoking a specific theme for a while so I can get back into the swing of things and enjoy some fun variety runs.

Go read this story that Peebs wrote. I literally laughed and cried and it's just wonderful.

Go listen to Sel's music, it's AMAZING!

If you'd like to play Compartmentalize, you can find it here: traineranade.itch.io/compartmenta... 💖

Percy, my service dog, does not enjoy me being at my computer for so many hours during this game jam. But, by gosh, will he stay by me regardless. #LAGjam #LadyArcadersGameJam #dogs #dogsofbluesky #goldenretrievers #servicedogs

Did you know that only about 13% of images on Bluesky have alt text loaded currently? This #ArtShare is to celebrate those who load alt text! In order to participate, you MUST have alt loaded on your images. Open theme of course. :) Let's have fun and show em how it's done!

my team’s game has neither lesbians nor space androids :)

There's always room for more lesbian space androids in the #LAGJam2024! We are live with teams from the game jam! They'll be updating us on their progress and showing off their creations, including lesbian space androids! t0zzle is our host! Tune in now! twitch.tv/ladyarcaders 🕹

Buster's thought of the day: "It's ok to hate the state of the world right now, but never let it interfere with a good nap." #dachshundsofbluesky #dogsofbluesky

I'm participating in this game jam and am excited to see where folks are at after the first day of working at it!

In case folks missed the announcement over on Twitter this morning, the draft schedule for AGDQ 2025 has been released! gamesdonequick.com/schedule/52
