Shit. I would have called dibs.

Why did you transition, wrong answers only. I like trans dudes so much I wanted to donate my testicles. Imagine my disappointment when they said I couldn't give them to charity.

I blogged. It's words that you can read on your glowing screen. open.substack.com/pub/liminalr... You should read it.

This is why I'm not on board with Newsom. That he took the time to praise a man who's responsible for the deaths of millions of queer people shows he's the worst kind of gutless, pandering faux-centrist. Dragging Trump on social media doesn't win you a free pass on this shit.

Yes! But canonically they're way too one dimensional. For one of my campaign settings I re-imagined them as a tragic fallen society that had thrown off the yoke of demonic evil and taken up a more shamanic religion. Gave them a chance to shine as possible allies.

Keep the two distinct in your head.

I think anyone trans in the USA right now is probably going through some shit. I know I am.

Quick #poll. Should I take my evening edible before the HOA meeting or after?

To sum up life in Central #oregon in one encounter: stopped in the shopping center parking lot to let the openly pistol-carrying dude in full tactical gear cross the street in front of me. He flashed me a peace sign before continuing on into the local organic food store.

Editing for consistency a first draft of a gaming book that was written by 2 authors over 15 years spread across 10 discrete files. If that's not a labor of love, I don't know what is. #writing

New blog post is live! Is it mostly just Kestrel being a squeeing fangirl about the Portland show that @sarahrose.lol and her band just played with Streetwalker Barbie and Everybody's Worried About Owen? Signs point to "probably". #music #lgbt #SarahAndTheSafeWord open.substack.com/pub/liminalr...

Just got back from seeing @sarahrose.lol and her AMAZING band here in PDX. I'll probably be too stiff to move tomorrow but good God damn, that set SLAPPED.

Let the #pdx nostalgia trip/pilgrimage begin.

Okay, so queer gamer nerds are just the best...

I haven't blogged much lately about #trans stuff because, frankly, the state of politics in the US is dismal and depressing. But today, I finished a post that has at least a smidgen of #hope-punk.

Omg. This.

Rewinding a cassette with a bic pen because you didn't want to waste the batteries in your walkman.

a reminder for creative people that art is one of the most powerful tools we have during times of struggle and you should never feel guilty for making art even if it’s not explicitly political ❤️

since I see ppl posting pictures from a pseudoscience convention this morn, I will re-up this. Blanchard's theory of autogynephilia (read: his taxonomy & etiology) have been disproved by multiple research studies (see my reviews here): juliaserano.medium.com/autogynephil...

Happy Wrath Month, my lovely #lgbt folks. A new #trans blog post is now live, as I try to coerce myself back into writing regularly. open.substack.com/pub/liminalr...

YES. YES IT IS.

Are you a cis woman who doesn't want the very real issues we face to be used as a stick to beat our trans sisters? Sign here.

Movie you've watched more than six times using gifs. Hard mode: no Star Wars, Trek, or LotR.

Seriously, San Francisco. Get your shit together.

My shampoo bottle said "no harsh stripping" and now all I want in life is to open a queer burlesque club where dancers get sexy and take off their clothes to an exclusively heavy metal soundtrack. Is that so wrong, Pantene?

Vance is here to grab content he can post on X, using your replies. Starve the beast.

All right, all you freaks and weirdos, it's been 30 years since I lived in #PDX, but I'm heading there next week to see a show. Where are all the freaks, queers, and cool kids hanging these days? Is Oasis pizza on Hawethorne still a thing? Where's the good Thai food? Inquiring minds want to know.

I spent a month not blogging because my brain apparently wouldn't do anything vaguely constructive. But then I stopped doing that and did another blog post. #trans #resistance #porn #culture #blog open.substack.com/pub/liminalr...

Something Wicked This Way Comes. I think I read it when I was about 12. I was a pretty precocious reader, but that one messed with my head.

I just wrote a new #blog post about #transgender topics, over on my Substack. Maybe you want to read it. I don't know, I'm not your mom. open.substack.com/pub/liminalr...

Congratulations #canada on choosing sanity over whatever poison bullshit PP was peddling. Little disappointed that my home riding went to the Cons, but happy for the nation.

You can register AT your polling place! ID is wide-ranging, so if you’re not sure, bring what you can (digital bank statement or bills are fine!) and just show up. Poll workers want to help you vote.

Happy Election Day Canada! Please go vote. 🇨🇦

If you're able to vote in Canada, please get off your ass and do it if you haven't already. Down here in the States we're living with the consequences of a disengaged electorate and it's real fucken ugly. Much love to all. Signed, A Deeply Worried Dual Citizen #canada #vote

Just got back from seeing @laurajanegrace.bsky.social play a show. I have to say; the openers were both amazing bands, bands I would absolutely go see again, fantastic in every way. LJ, however, blew the fucking roof off the place. #punk #queer #music And now I'm old and my knees hurt. Worth it!

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

I have really good news to announce to everyone. Because of our reporting and many readers contacting Planned Parenthood of Arizona, the organization will NOT over comply with Trump, and is restarting its trans adult care. Good work everyone.

1. I am raising the alarm: If you are a transgender adult, your care is under threat by President Trump. You should prepare for severe supply disruptions and policies that amount to potential bans. The latest CMS letter indicates an expansion to target adults. Subscribe to support my reporting.

Behold! I have wrote! Thou shouldst read! open.substack.com/pub/liminalr... #lgbt #transgender #trans #blogpost #blueberries

Did you want to read my thoughts about #visibility of #trans people and #resistance? Well, you can. It's right there on my newest blog post. open.substack.com/pub/liminalr...

So being #transgender, you get used to getting a hojillion pages of disclaimers/side effects every time you ask for medicine. Informed consent, sure. You know what they fail to include on that list? A sharp uptick in the amount of times you painfully swing the car door into your left tit. #HRT #OWW

Tapping the sign again

Where is our humanity?

Corner Gas/Rimworld. Brett and Lacey try to set up a chemfuel depot/kitchen on a rimworld. Hank gets burned to death in a freak boomrat incident. Emma and Oscar bicker but save each other from cannibals. Wanda builds a ship to get everyone back to Saskatchewan. This could be a legit horror/comedy.

They want to raise the retirement age, slash Medicare, shut down the Dept. of Education, privatize social security, and gut the USPS. We say: NOT ON OUR WATCH. #HandsOff @aftunion.bsky.social @nysut.bsky.social @YonkersFederationofTeachers

So even the govt's craven plan to weaken copyright and suck up to the tech bros isn't enough for them. Open AI and Google think they just ought to have all our work for free, always, because...they want it, that's why. #MetaBookThieves www.politico.eu/article/open...

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

Musk is just existing solely on cope and horse drugs at this point, I think.
