i condemn hasan piker for wanting to steal from the Louvre the british museum is the designated leftist heist museum

extremely funny that governments seemingly use their insanely difficult to acquire tools to charge people with nothing crimes, instead of keeping their shit private and using their zero days on like idk foreign nations messing with elections or something. deeply unserious

jimmy carter rolling in his grave so hard it might cause localized earthquakes, those white house solar panels were cool jimmy don’t worry

i would be so happy if i never had to see or hear from these two ever again

never before have I seen such a DOA demand, this can absolutely only mean the US doesn’t even want to bother pretending to negotiate, they just want to save the flight and stay at home lol

the irony is that DC still doesn't get to be a state

the one thing i noticed about the eu when i lived in the netherlands was that they weren't afraid of complicated solutions to real problems. a solidly technocratic institution sometimes its a mistake, but probably less often than just trying to do simple stuff like tax rebates

I like bluesky because it feels so much like tumblr 1. barely works 2. userbase is annoying (affectionate)(not that affectionate) 3. being queer on here feels like I’m actively participating in ruining some tech company’s investment

ugh other people using my things is awesome but it does mean i need to be better about documenting stuff as i go and like... making sure it works for other people especially pipelines. damn pipelines.

now that we have sometimes-maybe-kinda-universal pharmacare (for certain things) for people outside of BC, can we make BC's pharmacare a lot better than everyone else's again?

i think that the only people who should be allowed to vote or run for office should be those who have had to deal with an Employment Insurance claim that the government makes a mistake on, then they will truly understand the cost of neoliberalism

also bless that time of year when you've finally paid enough money for prescriptions that you actually start to get universal pharmacare

silver nitrate is simultaneously not as bad as I was led to believe and still decidedly quite unpleasant but mostly much later when i go to sit on... anything

I made it all the way to the apocalypse without learning IPv6

us president is basically threatening to nuke someone on extra-racist-twitter and yet i am preparing for an interview. the world is weird

hoping to see more of these polls with a nice boost for the NDP post-leadership campaign, if only because my fave won

bottom surgery be like

the amount of ptsd i have from the time i was trying to leave an AWS conference in Toronto and was stuck in this particular spot for a solid 90 minutes inching forward, knees crying out in pain, me crying out in pain, just.... awful i did, in fact, start planning on how to leave ontario that day

"on that shit dogs are on be seeing colours outside the knowledge of humans"

>wake up >it’s trans day of visibility >open phone >kristi noem’s husband is a bimbofication sissy >go back to sleep

i think the only time i get fully socially awkward in person anymore is if a strange man in a thrift shop says some out of pocket shit to me while i'm browsing pants like "you have large feet for a woman" "sometimes" is perhaps the most awkward thing i could've said, i think

i think you should support trans women on the basis that discrimination against us hurts us. when things are done to hurt us we feel it. we feel pain. we are real people. we want to be treated fairly right now, not in the future, but now, because it hurts now.

the best thing about my post-op care is that it happens at the most aggressively queer clinic that exists, probably 💜

Congrats rob ford on 10 years sober

no amount of the comments warning me was enough to make me not drop my phone while trying to show my wife

oh god Liquid Glass really is so bad. i upgraded to get call screening but damn i regret it now

my neighbour told me iran keeps blowing up his aerial refuelling tankers so i asked how many aerial tankers he has and he said he just goes to boeing and buys a new aerial tanker afterwards so i said it sounds like he's just feeding aerial tankers to iran and then his taxpayers started crying

a recruiter has told me that they've been "following my profile for a while" and that they were glad that I've finally responded to them once truly the job market is strange place

the longer i am on HRT, the more i look like a gay goth version of my mom instead of a gay goth version of my dad. i am pleased with this outcome because my mom is beautiful & i love her.

embarrassed myself yesterday in front of three beautiful women as I stood there (they were sitting) and tried to find the word for quiche by stating “it’s got like eggs and stuff, starts with a C” not the part of my post-op follow-up i thought would be most embarrassing but alas

“I just got out of the briefing and I think you should hold your loved ones tight” thanks senator, very encouraging

Reform UK is just the political party from V for Vendetta but instead of manufacturing an actual domestic crisis, it’s just the natural end result of decades of neoliberalism

truly humbling to realize I was not in fact just doing good at recovery, i was just powering through by a steady supply of good drugs, and as soon as I lost those it sucked REAL HARD

If you smell toast, you might be having a stroke... a stroke of luck that is. It’s toast time.

this theory did so much long term damage to me that it can honestly never be mitigated. truly set back my entire transition by like a decade at least. despicable stuff, to be expected from rags like The Atlantic and NYT these days

the AWS post-mortem after that one Call of Duty game where the russians are inexplicably paradropping into Northern Virginia would be crazy

“We invoke international law and the “rules based international order” when adversaries engage in unlawful actions, but abandon those same rules entirely when it’s the Americans…For a country that depends on law more than force for its own security, that is not realism; it is recklessness.”

they call it neopussy because it's got that new car smell

stephen king tried to warn us about Maine

there’s just this gay cis dude here also recovering from bottom surgery and honestly respect. more dudes should get a pussy, that’s cool as hell. iconic commitment to bottoming

imagine genuinely thinking this and then learning about how popular skyr is becoming

not only is Newsom a giant asshole but also he’s a cringe loser which is almost worse maybe try to find a joke that isn’t also a dunk on a marginalized group of your own supporters, jackass

the hardest part about bottom surgery isn’t the eight hours a day of aftercare, it’s balancing that with eating well and wanting to sleep twenty hours a day

So I’ve been showing any of my friends who asks my surgical results and so far quite positive reviews for only six days post-op

holy hell that’s awesome

i’ve finally declared iOS keyboard bankruptcy since it insists on correcting words to misspelled versions of them which is diabolical

Today is the day I get to see my surgical results for the first time. The anticipation is almost as high as the anxiety 😅

going to sleep with 3/10 pain and waking up to like 7/10 pain is awful, absolutely can’t recommend
