Just sitting here thinking about the friend I lost who said I was exaggerating about how evil Itamar ben-Gvir was. If anything, I think I understated it.

Frictionless cannabis

F*cking LOL!!! Is this April Fools Day!?! I mean, WT actual F?!? Yeah, they’re talking about LGBTQ+ people internationally… What about the sh*tty way this government is treating trans+ people at home!!! 😣😖 www.gov.uk/government/n...

I genuinely don't understand these people who say "if Jews accepted Jesus, Israel would stop doing genocide." Ignoring that there are hundreds of millions of Christian Zionists and only 15 million Jews in the world...Christians aren't exactly known for NOT doing settler-colonialism.

I delete all unsolicited emails from brands but I wish there was a super-delete for these goddamn AI companies. Keep your slop away from my precious audience!

Had a dream where there was a PS2 tie-in game for the 2006 remake of When A Stranger Calls, and for some reason there was a hidden mode where if the game detected you were using a fight stick instead of a standard controller, it would activate a new, harder difficulty mode with a more aggro Stranger

1. Generally this isn't going to go well for the pro se(s). 2. Real lawyers will make a ton of money defending these things. 3. Everything they ask of Ai is discoverable and will be turned over to the other side, feeding back into #1 and #2.

Quote with a fictional band that isn't Spinal Tap

Me, brushing my hair before court this morning: Ugh I have gray hairs already and I JUST colored it last week! Mercy, whose celebrity crush is Paget Brewster: OMG I'M GOING TO BE MARRIED TO EMILY PRENTISS THIS IS GREAT I CANNOT WAIT

Growing up as a ND girl for me meant feeling like I learned how to be a person late, but ALSO how to be a *girl* late. I didn't know how to put in a ponytail until I was like 13! I feel like there's less equivalent for boys; femininity has this load-bearing requirement to look effortless and innate.

My sister is currently at Leeds airport where she's watching the Irish President board a Ryanair flight to Dublin. Surely they can at least afford Aer Lingus for her!

this week's post is about how AI doesn't even do the things people pretend it does margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/ai-doesnt-...

Kazoo is learning about couch time. *this is her first run through the house and she already acts like she’s always lived here.

The amount of bullshit and lying you have to get good at and dead bodies you have to walk over to become a billionaire is staggering.

Legal action against Parkrun is a “symptom of the environment we’re in” says @fruitypy.bsky.social of @transsolidarity.bsky.social as anti-rights groups escalate attacks on Trans+ inclusion 👇

My signature’s on the line, so, now it’s time for shark book summer. I’ve been waiting a long time for this. Thirty years ago, I hammered away at a big shark novel of my own before I realized I had fragments rather than a story. Also I was in middle school. But now? Now, the water feels just fine

Similar to the IRS's defeat at the hands of Scientology in late '93

An excerpt from the newly written Thursday newsletter: "If there’s one thing I wish that mainstream reporters on gender-affirming care could get through their heads, it’s that that trans patients are patients, not advocates."

Big Spender & Top Tipper rewards went out on all pages today 💕 if it might be you, check your inboxes! 🖤🧡

I specifically remember gravel cycling, 45 - 55. (No shade to all you gravel cyclists, but it's an obscure sport AND an age group category).

Last time we indicted a Latin American leader, we kidnapped him www.cnn.com/2026/05/20/p...

There wasn't a problem with trans people in sports at any level. Trans women have never dominated any sport. If trans people were proportionately represented in women's Olympic gold medals (just to take an easy example) we'd see a few trans women take gold every year, instead of zero ever.

POV: You and your big silly cat are both letting much of it "hang out"

This is peak disgusting. In South Carolina, if you’re a trans kid in school or a college student, the state wants to force you into porta-potties. That's in a new Republican-passed and signed law. www.advocate.com/politics/sta...

me during every cutscene this expansion

this shit is like wrath of the lich king all over again dang

ok that's it we are streaming diablo 4 lord of hatred campaign FROM THE START on a new HARDCORE character TONIGHT at 8pm!!

HUGE spoiler gif for The Boys in the next post I'll see if I can put it behind a filter too, but omg it's so good, I asked Amy to make it for me.

"Sure, Barney Frank was a transphobic piece of shit, but he also liked dick and, in that way, he was a hero...."

Stressed outs, unmedicated me transferred money OUT of the account that needed the money. Y’all I’m so tired of a negative balance in my checking account. But I’m still doing my best to get my people paid first

One thing I haven't seen anyone note yet is the wording of the AIPAC victory lap post about Massie. Did you see how they referred to "our community"? Inferring that they are the Jewish community? They are deliberately FEEDING antisemitic conspiracy theories and you'll never convince me otherwise.

Everything makes me mad. Except Kazoo.

If you haven't watched Strip Law yet, you're missing out.

Trying to earn a living doing anything creative feels like constantly asking what parts of my principles I have to contradict for anyone to see what I'm making.

Stuck with only Amazon for a few more weeks, but if you buy from Amazon, you should order our little book today.

"Barnes & Noble CEO backs selling AI-written books in stores" Absolutely the fuck not. Buy and order from indies (many ship!). If money's a worry, libraries can help you - even with ebooks! But no there is no reason to just roll over and accept jerks pushing ai inevitability. Hit them in the wallet

I had a lovely chat with @deanrlomax.bsky.social this morning, which reminded me of this piece I wrote about Shonisaurus! The big "fish lizard" wasn't a gentle filter feeder. Think more Triassic orca.

Full of Estrogen and Progesterone

Not-so-fun fact: this dedication originally had three lost mentors it, but then one of them posthumously popped up* in the Epstein Emails *asking J.E. for money years after the conviction; no sex stuff, but STILL

Ask me why I hate when websites decide they know better than you.

And when you cannot appeal to one's better nature, you must appeal to their self interest Such as keeping their heads attached to their necks.

If you care even an iota about the trans community you don't want to see us stripped of rights that were uncontroversial as recently as 2020. This is not a litmus test or a purity test, it's an honesty test.

drawing and listening to last years best #shoegaze song

starting the day off with a Comical Misunderstanding - made my breakfast miso broth and stored the extra in the carafe to keep it warm a short while later someone who expected the usual carafe contents arrive holding a cup & looking forlorn "this isn't coffee...it's Gross Water."

Another of those "multiple things can be true at the same time" examples: Yes, antisemitism is increasing. Yes, antisemitism is increasing because of Israel doing genocide. Yes, antizionist Jews also face increasing antisemitism.

The world but, hey, I had a REALLY wonderful birthday dinner with my fiancée last night

who up making art 🎨

Jabba was right

You know i was always confused by that scene in return of the jedi where the robots are getting tortured in Jabba’s palace like why would you torture a robot but now that ive experienced a world with ai, yeah, yeah, i would like to put Chatgpt and Claude on The Rack

I hope I never need another website redesign as long as I live. Woof, it's such a struggle.

I appreciate the universe sometimes. It's kinda shit, often, but there are moments where it's perfect.

In this week's newsletter I'm writing about trans kids' right to privacy in their medical records, and how nobody in the mainstream bothers giving lip service to it. Medical privacy laws were written with HIV stigma as the primary concern, this was always a queer issue. assignedmedia.org/support/

Death is likely the next tarot card I will have tattooed on me. My left forearm has the queen of swords. The right forearm has the wheel of fortune, which is my perspective on my life. I've been trying to choose my next two. Contenders: Death 4 of Swords 1 of Staves 9 of Pentacles 10 of Cups

Look, I'm very petty, but I'll also keep decorum as long as you do your part.

Good morning! Last night I finished the first draft of Order Up, a single act play. I need to nail down one of my playwright friends to give it a read.

It honestly is very ironic that Mike Nelson is a giant homophobe, because I don't think anyone has ever believed that Tom Servo is straight

Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges, two law enforcement officers who defended the U.S. Capitol from Trump insurrectionists on January 6, have sued to block the recently created $1.776 billion Trump slush fund.

So desperate for lamps in my living room, but there's a single plug socket for the entire downstairs half of my (split level) flat, which really does make things difficult

At the newsletter, something small that got big: On vulnerability, getting made fun of, and why I stopped watching MST3K and started loving old B-movies. Also, not coincidentally, "Jason X:" jude-doyle.ghost.io/mr-j-natural...

Breaking: Barney Frank, the first out gay member of Congress, has died. www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

It's DEAD TEENAGERS day! Go pick up Issue #3 wherever you buy comics, and put in a pre-order for Issue #4 before May 25. All the covers are great, obviously, but the "Clueless" one will live in my crystal-encrusted heart forever.

It fascinates me how people internalize certain tarot cards. I always looked at tarot not as a harbinger of a future, but as meditative device to tell us where we are at. We are creating stories in our heads and relating them to our personal experiences, and that will tell you a lot about yourself.

That's because he already doesn't pay his fair share. How much he DOES pay we don't know because he keeps his returns private.

I reviewed Everything is Crab. A fun game with a brilliant concept, trapped in the shadow of its own immense potential. Read here: www.thejimquisition.com/post/everyth...

He died doing what he loved - undermining the rights of trans people.

Just so you know...

I'm losing my mind, why do the posters in the background of this photo of Perez Hilton and Lady Gaga from 2008 look AI generated

Wow okay it's probably just New Relationship Energy, but uhh FRIENDSHIP ENDED WITH ALL OTHER E-READERS, INCLUDING APPS ON PHONE AND TABLET /// XTEINK X4 IS MY NEW BESTFRIEND

"The anti-trans organization LGB Norway has held its annual meeting, and at the end of the meeting they had an 'open conversation' that is fascinating. They do not want to be known as anti-trans... While the little political activity they have engaged in has ONLY been about being anti-trans. 🤘"

THE BOYS SPOILERS I want to discuss one thing and one thing only, which is why some people...specific male fanbois...hate the last season and especially the finale. And their specific complaints boil down to one thing

pre-coffee thoughts with Tilly: of course in this new world, shears would then be called chippychoppies but you could only use them to chop chips sorry i don’t make the rules this has been pre-coffee thoughts with Tilly

ditch woke go broke motherfuckers

Tens of thousands of people, of every race, religion, sexuality, gender, and ability poured onto the streets last night totally spontaneously and partied until the early hours. It was a massive outpouring of joy and love.

Holy shit! My teensy-tinsy, used, cumbersomely named Xteink X4 e-reader came in the mail, and I figured out how to use it!!! It's so cute!!!!!!!! Squeeeee!!!!!!

In case you've ever wondered what it's like to be trans in 2026: friends are texting each other today to be safe again, as we do every week, because the richest man in the world is yet again boosting false claims that neo-Nazis who attacked the Mosque were trans and there's a conspiracy to hide it.

This is 5.5 football fields and you'd be surprised on a map how much of that map is within that of ANY type of school. That's like 7 city blocks and I'm within a school, maybe two schools at that distance. *hits bong*

Cyanocitta!

This is a cool thread, and helps explain why for me the aeropress purchase finally unlocked coffee at home for me. The coffee itself tastes better than any I was having out, but more importantly I found a new ritual that brings me pleasure in the mornings.

throne.com/sophia_nyx/i... i have a particular set of film question posting skills. #mutualaid

Wait a minute... Are we actually losing the ability to use the Google search engine? This... sucks. I have tried to leave Google behind, but it's remained the most functional search engine. Not as good as it once was, but still providing an easier way to find what I want than its competitors.

And yet then won’t stop asking for money for the rest of your life as if there’s no correlation between sniveling condescending commencement speakers and soured alumni relations.

It really do be like that

A thriving metropolis at the center of commerce on the Mississippi, Memphis was struck by a yellow fever outbreak in 1878. White residents fled, abandoning Black residents to their fate. Nearly 150 years later, attitudes towards Memphis are still characterized by callous disregard and dismissal.

"As has become clear to many people in the LGBTQIA+ community, Labour's lurch to the right has meant the party is not the one we once knew. "They have shown that we have to treat them the way we treated the Conservatives: as the opposition, not our allies." Our full analysis ⏬

imagine paying $500 to give yourself brain damage

dreamt I was watching a commercial for Crunchy Beef Knots if you're curious how badly living in this country has damaged my mental health

France is so laid back, very European, that even the power grid takes a three hour lunch and a cigarette before working again.

Holy shit New Vegas remake???

Did you know foxes are commonly associated as sly tricksters for some reason? Weird

Goo morning, monsters. Congratulations on your Good Eater Award!

oh sure

If you're trans, you don't have to Understand It either! You can just be trans! I don't understand how my optic nerve works, but I could still read this post! Life Finds A Way

I think The Boys finale was good. I think writing a good ending to anything is pretty hard, but even more so when the ride was so much fun. 8/10, solid.

John Travolta and David Beckham are merging and soon they will be one incredible surgery man

When the bans dropped, I made a promise to myself that I would engage in malicious compliance - I would use a women's room if the law required me to do so, risk arrest, and make people uncomfortable. I haven't broken my pledge, but I was just in Texas and of course I wound up avoiding bathrooms.
