My interview with Dr Amethysta Herrick has been released as its own video. Exclusion from our community should be a last resort, never a first choice, but my experience shows the contrary is usually the case. youtu.be/bYQYmuTaJao

Hooray, hooray! All sex is gay. This I proclaim, As June fades away.

They want to stop the ones who want prosthetic foreheads on their heads; but everybody wants prosthetic foreheads on their real heads.

I have designed a mug based on Dorley canon. "The family that spays to get her, stays together." This design blends castration chic with Russian Constructivism, and adds a good dose of '80s greeting card cocainey je'n'saiquoi. Melikes. @badambulist.bsky.social #dorley #noveltymug #orchi

Inspired by a Tumblr post, I have ordered another Novelty Mug. I sense a potential hardcore addiction here. I'm okay with that. www.tumblr.com/soup-mother/... @badambulist.bsky.social #dorley #noveltymug #forcefem #basement

Every demand that trans rights should be limited should be met immediately by a demand for evidence. You claim trans women are a danger in ladies' rooms? Show high quality evidence backing it up or SHUT UP. You claim youth transition hurts youth more than it helps? High quality evidence or STFU.

Today I protested outside 'The Beehive' — the NZ parliament buildings — against a preposterous, tautological private member's bill claiming to "define gender" under law. A woman, it asserts, is an "adult human biological female". I'm all of these things; yet it'll deny me womanhood. Poppycock!

My Dorleypilling continues this morning, as I ordered this mug combining an authentic detail from the books with my favourite Simone de Beauvoir quotation. I also ate Weet-Bix for breakfast. @badambulist.bsky.social

Good morning from New Zealand, fine people! - Happy Easter, if you're into that - Happy 4/20, if you're into that - Happy Bicycle Day, if you're into that - Happy exterminating Nazis on Hitler's birthday — we are ***all into that.***

Yesterday, I got my annual influenza vaccine. I expect, like every one of the vaccines I have had my entire life, that it will not give me autism. What a damn rip-off.

Oh,Ethel, HEAR HEAR! Asexual people are subject to revoltingly elevated levels of sexual violence. As a survivor of multiple devastating r@pes, and of SA several times *in the past few months,* I stand in solidarity with ALL victims, and decry the dismissive hatred of bigots. youtu.be/F8h8I7Jzl-Q

Had I made a very long list of things I might be doing this weekend, bodysurfing would not have been on it. And that list would have been wrong, today was an amazing day on the beach. However, for the rest of today, my name is spelled Margei. Because, of course, it's "I before E, except after sea."

Today, I got an appointment for what I hope is meaningful mental health care. This has taken literally decades. It was systemically and systematically denied to me in Canada. Sometimes maliciously. April 29 is the date. I'm still processing this.

concur with most of this - minus the grace meeting cruelty & being kind whilst being disliked Fuck that #progress It’s a bloody battle

Usefulness of the latest update to GPS voice directions questioned, as the only direction given is to take the Third Reich only

Today, someone stated their justification for excluding me from a social group as the fact that I am a victim of assault and bullying. They are therefore using previous bullying as justification for further bullying: incontrovertible proof of the utter cowardice and immorality of bullying behaviour.

@quinn-derella.bsky.social — might you contribute to a translation?

A brutal murderous dictator, Rodrigo Duterte, has just been arrested for his blood-soaked "War on Drugs" in the Philippines. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Let's not overlook "tuchus".

Homelessness is a terrifying prospect, which I recently experienced. I still don't have stable housing, and cannot afford to contribute myself, but I am better off than Erika here. If you can contribute to her safety, even slightly, that's a meaningful act of solidarity. More love for everyone.

"Anytime you hear a fascist make an accusation, it's really a confession, since they project ALL of their evils into their victims." I personally confirm this, including cryptofascist transfemme "community leaders." Anytime you are told a horrific accusation, question it. youtu.be/sQJeAXVAo_A

Repost if your profile is LGBTQIA+ safe! I support your right to assert your identity, since nobody else can do it for you.

On a train, in the rain

@amethysta.io I mentioned this song this afternoon. I feel it's an important song with fiery lyrics, which are invariably wrong in online sources. I transcribed what I think are definitive lyrics here. Luba is from Montreal and had a number of hits in the '80s and '90s. "Let It Go" is from 1982.

The weather here's better in late February than I am accustomed to in Montreal.

@amethysta.purplepawclan.com just hosted a fantastic podcast in which I was practically the fourth member along with Jasmine Vine and Lino Martinez. Enjoy! www.youtube.com/live/6cgfpoQ...

Cuba Street will own my heart forever.

Yesterday at Quaker Meeting, there was a discussion of social justice re the catastrophe in the US. I said talk without action is complicity, and I was placed in charge of a new Underground Railroad rescuing trans people to a safe life in New Zealand! The Earth shook. Literally; I felt tremors!

I've been facing increasing numbers of cowardly hit&run attacks from sock puppet accounts, making lurid, false, ludicrous assertions to cut me off from my community and from sources of support. I'd not repeat them, if they hadn't already proven deadly in Canada, forcing me to flee injustice.

I have, since October, been using the Raitch-Margie Protocol for estradiol and progesterone dosing for transfemme people. This uses two estered forms of estradiol (valerate and enanthate) to emulate cis female cycles with unmatched fidelity. Cost US$140 supplies about 5–6 years of cycles.

A simple op shop stop — thrifting, for those not familiar with Kiwi argot — can do so much to lift the spirits. I snagged this gorgeous embroidered top from Aunty Dana's Op Shop, benefiting Gender Minorities Aotearoa, this afternoon for a measly $7. I saved $999,993 over how it makes me look.

Kia Ora, all! Today I am moving to the magnificently queer city of Wellington... Hopefully this is the last time (the third so far) that I am compelled to run for my life. It gets tired, lemme tell ta.
