I couldn't be more excited to announce something I've been working on for a long time - Please welcome Belltower House Artist Residency, a multidisciplinary gift of time in my erstwhile home in southern New Mexico, now accepting applications for 2026. belltowerhouse.org

I agree with this strategy of voting for Dems provided that they haven't embraced extreme anti-trans positions. and I definitely agree that Kaptur, Cuellar, & Turek have all crossed that line & I personally wouldn't vote for them
The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

If you self identify as a Democrat and you think trans people advocating for our issues is a threat that elected officials need to be protected from, then your goal is to silence trans people, and we have to fight your apathy to ensure our rights are among your priorities.

I have trans kids. If you want ppl to stop dehumanizing you, maybe think about what you’re doing here.

Democrats never do anything wrong. They just take months sometimes to go from where they started to eventually the opposite position, but that's not being wrong. All the leftists who warned them and got chided? That's part of the process
Platner didn't get kicked out by the left. Platner dropped out because democrats pushed him out. Did you vote in the primary?
New time-travel management strategy game just dropped -- you're thrown back into Lincoln times, but stay that rifle, soldier. To keep the timeline on track, you'll need to settle for terms that are acceptable to the slav-I mean business owners. QTE - press A to resist advocating for full rights

Liberal islamophobia is a hell of a drug "no, but it's ok bc I want good things for Muslims, except the ones who didn't vote Harris. of course i have no way of knowing who's who, but there's no way I'd do something racist like lump them all together, or mock their faith in service of my own ends "

bluesky went from the most accepting social experience we've ever had online to literally fearing for our child's safety because of the far-right brigading Singal personally stirred up overnight in '24 he does not get a redemption arc for trying to turn down the volume on the mob he helped create
every now & then someone on the anti-trans side will get cold feet about how openly ugly it's all getting—they want to keep the image of a nice, sensible centrist but it's never enough for them to get off the train
Mixed feelings here: 1) military enlistment is a mode of being in society, so allowing trans ppl to stay shows an interest in having trans ppl in society. 2) would love to see examples of the US standing up for trans ppl that don't involve participating in war, risking injury or death
Woah - boards of service in the Marines and the Navy are ignoring Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth's order to purge transgender troops from the military. "Navy and Marine Corps boards have voted to retain trans members in nine of 12 cases." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

Trans voter to @aoc.bsky.social: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that? AOC:

i would like to vote for a party that welcomes criticism, and I would not like to vote for a party that knowingly hides valid criticism by marginalizing those who express them it's a 4 alarm fire when the party you're counting on to "restore truth" has settled into calling all dissenters enemies.
Any reflections on why "willingness to acknowledge valid criticism of a Democrat" is seen as materially harmful to the election? Does it concern you that Democrats' "serious mode" requires anyone who *sees and acknowledges a true, negative feature of a Democrat* to get called MAGA? Afraid of that?

Unsure how to feel seeing a popular, national-level politician describe an actual problem from my life. I'm not sure I've ever heard these kinds of concerns spoken aloud by anyone with power
AOC: "What the Trump administration is doing in targeting trans people is to get everyone on board with supporting defunding their own civil rights ... understand that when they attack trans girls in sports, they're also attacking all women's ability to stand up against their abusers"

New flavor just dropped: Enjoy the Newsome camps! They won't be prisons but the president will entourage through and throw away your supply of medicine and what few precious items you've been able to keep despite abject poverty and homelessness
Then enjoy a Newsom presidency if you cannot muster an ounce of effort to prevent a shitty future
