I KNOW I SAID GOODNIGHT BUT BANJO GUY LOVES WIND TURBINES

Animus brief: all these people assert that the act of cis people and trans people interacting is inherently harmful to cis people Chorus: pyrite has iron in it, also anachronism is a word we learned today Miri: has anyone actually understood the animus at the heart of this? This fucking guy:

Im not shy

Ima start calling this shit my vestiges

I tuned a guitar while WTF

What is your favorite word?

“Manzo says in all four cases, every suspect was a cisgender man; most of the beatings took place in broad daylight; and in every case, male friends, associates, or, in at least one case, complete strangers joined in.” Two strangers, precisely, and they kicked her in the face on the ground.

I wonder what it feels like to feel sexy?

Unfortunately, the attack on Carstens and her trans friends was only one of the many transphobic hate crimes that have taken place across the Seattle area in recent times. The far-right, emboldened by Trump and now enraged by the murder of Charlie Kirk, is on the attack. Read more about it here:

Madison Carstens, a transgender woman from Seattle, was attacked by six men in a transphobic hate crime on Sept 2. She suffered a ruptured eardrum - that may have permanently damaged her hearing - and a severe concussion that will keep her out of work for weeks or months. Do your thing, fam. (1/2)

Chilling echo of dictators past.

Just attended a FOIA-thon for government records related to trans issues with @transjournalists.org and @muckrock.com. They're trying to raise $1000 to support their work - I chipped in $25 and encourage everyone who cares about trans journalism to chip in too! givebutter.com/MPTg3M

“One colleague stood up and asked what the next step would be? … if they were planning to ban LGBT teachers from teaching, and they didn’t really have an answer for that."

Texas to become the 20th state with a law restricting what bathrooms transgender people can use For @nbcnews.com: www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-...

"Music is kind of one facet of me trying to open my heart and really appreciate people for who they are," he added. "And I really do see that a lot in the other incarcerated guys ... We end up using it as a platform to come together instead of being divisive." Who’da thunk it

People in prison explain what music means to them — and how they access it. Story via @npr.org

These ghost autistic people will be the legacy of RFK Jr. that haunts America for generations.

VFR, single engine, fixed wing, never solo’d. Had more than 40 hrs. Couldn’t see. Dad took me to an faa certified optometrist and they conspired together to certify me. So I never solo’d. Seemed stupid to knowingly put myself and others in danger just for the fun of soaring on avgas.

@valeriezooomies.bsky.social i am never not going to follow an estradiol-addled rotowing aviator dumb enough to point two sticks down the mountain and send it I look forward to observing the beautiful calamity that will hopefully come my way

Fuck me six ways sideways this shoot

Some real warp and woof of history shit rn

Kurt was hours ago Kurt watchers I just didn’t tell anyone

@lilbluegem.bsky.social you can’t just quote me then dive through a day of my intolerable bullshit and like that many of my stupid comments and not have me beat you over the head to follow and listen to @ekkoastral.bsky.social It’s practically illegal for me not to

Walden Pond’s a little crowded

This is a picture of the cellphone cache they found in NYC and holy shit. All of those little chiclets in the rack cases are SIM cards; apparently the rig could send 30 million anonymous texts per minute

All white all white all white

Is cnn burying the lede with the Kimmel victory lap because they just signed off their stupid 5 things segment with a throwaway: “oh, btw Sinclair owned affiliates aren’t gonna show him lol”?

I did my nails pretty for your opening night ceremony tonight @katecursed.bsky.social but I regret to inform you that I am playing this guitar rn so no promises girl 🩷🩷

Everyone plays chess. Set aside the game has long been solved as far as our species is concerned. Trump plays the board the same way every time. Take-as-take-can. It’s a style I’ve seen before, it takes you pretty far. But it’s not thought, it’s emotion. Everyone knows you don’t let them take.

Siblings, you know all those blue no matter who accounts that follow you and do nothing but edgepost/fedpost? Y’know how Mam Miriam is always telling you to block them? Well, anyway, I’m not your mother.

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.

I added half a dozen new entries to the Bibliography of Medieval Trans Studies, with a shoutout to @tswingard.bsky.social who added a few things recently as well. (Thank you!!) There are a ton of great resources on here, many of which are freely accessible.

really hammering home that they think of women as goods to be owned and traded

Staring at the pretty girls in their fashion and their makeup and their hair done right Theirs is grace and elegance. Mine is the schlep.

I will be dining out on the time a man treated me like a lady probably for the rest of my life.

I should probably learn something

I have a love/hate relationship with hydroelectric dams

This sign wasn’t on my bingo card.

at this point I would read a whole book on why fascists love helicopters so much

Feminism 👍👀

My professional assessment is that Ezra Klein is a moron @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social

I should have known about Mary Rose Oakar because she was first Arab American woman in Congress. but also she was my literal neighbor when I was in grad school and I had no idea until I recognized her pics in the obituaries!
