Kassandra Jo Tomaras

Check out my new authorial website: raconteuse.me @juneeee.bsky.social is an excellent web developer. You should pay her to help you do cool things.

I had a meeting with my job coach today and she noticed that my most recent job titles were noticeably lower level than my pre-transition jobs. I explained, "Lo que pasa con mujeres trans es que, poco a poco, perdimos todo." She handled me a Kleenex, and then we figured out creative translations.

Abolish the New York Times, abolish the London Times, abolish ICE, abolish the Home Office, abolish the Epstein class, abolish the crown, and abolish GOLF

- sees infographic about H5N1 in mink - "This looks serious. I wonder if Espose, who studies the ecology of infectious diseases, has seen it." - notices that it was Espose who reposted it "Oh shit, it is serious!"

"Hello, Force of the State? I want to use you to steal joy and innocence from a literal preschooler, because I don't like him being better than white kids at games! I knew you'd be up for it! Thanks."

One thing I love about my relationships is that they all would offend lots of people and some of those people are even trans.

Amy Acton did not come recently to her bigotry. This is 2016, when she was lead defendant in Ohio refusing to allow trans people to correct their birth certificates.

Those first two numbers can't be a coincidence. Groyper Nazis in the US government are playing in our faces.

my biggest takeaway from teaching is that this country hates children.

Me about Kid 2, yesterday: "They're totally neurotypical. They're just obsessed with trains, pigeons, fish, JRPGs, and 2 million word Chinese web novels."

I no longer work for Mount Sinai. Turn the page.

I am Kassandra, witch of the most recent book.

Bored billionaires hate workers more than they like books. "In a statement, the Catapult Workers Collective said the company announced its planned sale while workers were voting on whether to unionize earlier this year."

Just sent this article to my Ex (to make sure she and Kid 2 are prepared for the aftermath of the US election) and Espose (so we can start thinking and talking about the Spanish election).

TIL that Dunkin no longer makes apple fritters. I leave this country for 5 months and it all goes to hell in my absence.

Good news for our trans siblings in Aotearoa / new Zealand.

Sleeping in Ex's living room to maximize time spent with Kid 2 on this visit. She walks in on me changing for sleep in front of a large window and reminds me, "We're on the first floor, you know." "And I have great tits."

Heading to NY/NJ. It's been five months since I was last outside of Europe, 4 months since I last left Spain.

Returning to the US for a week to make the best of a bad situation. Followers in the US: what can I safely eat these days?

I Must have talked about it before how there is NO safe way to strangulate someone That's something people should indeed turn to porn for Which is staged, choreographed, acted. Done by professionals, safely, simulated. Taboo porn demand&production won't stop. But it will become more unethical

I attempted to introduce Espose to The Raincoats. It didn't go well. Knee-jerk response was, "This is like the soprano version of John Darnielle. They can't sing at all!"

Idea for a sapphic, kinky detournement: Cover of "Precious Thing" by Big Black that stays true to the instrumentals of the original, but for vocals has a well-trained soprano voice singing melodically, instead of nasal screaming in the style of Steve Albini

- Hey, German Language, how's it going? - "Over-foreigning" - Yeah

I was about to post a thread explaining Spanish electoral politics to my anglophone followers, but as it took shape in my head I was reminded that electoral politics are depressing, everywhere.

I hope cis folks are taking notice of how democratic state governments are giving up on enforcing their own laws You’re fine with it when it’s trans children, but will you be fine with it when your liberal state government decides to ignore a law you care about?

La plataforma de colectivos antirracistas marchó ayer por la tarde en una manifestación reivindicativa, que organizan desde hace ya 14 años, para exigir la abolición del día de la “Hispanidad”, una festividad “cimentada en el olvido institucional y el racismo estructural”.

These are the books that made a MAN out of my SON. A gay, trans MAN but definitely a MAN (not Hemingway, though)

There are, in fact, straight male writers who are putting out adventurous literary fiction. As far as I can tell, however, most of them are Russian.

For this Indigenous Peoples Day, your astonishing artifact is the earliest known Indigenous depiction of a European — a wood carving from Nunavut dated to 1350. 🧪🏺

#OtD 9 Oct 2014 the Guardian reported that Greek 'riot dog' Loukanikos ("sausage") died peacefully in his sleep. He was the most famous of the Athens strays who joined riots against police violence and later against austerity. More info and merch here: shop.workingclasshistory.com/en-gb/collec...

ICE manages somehow to make NYPD look reasonable in comparison.

I would like to encourage Spanish right-wing politicians to keep saying ridiculous, out-of-pocket things about Maricarmen for the next 53 days, and then crawl into a sewer.

Vengamos Maricarmen!

Un libro por y para analfabetos

It's 1936, and the Popular Front is on the march in France and Spain! It's 2026, and the Popular Front is on the march in France and Spain! [looks again at the history book] Fuck...

La patronal debe chuparme la polla.

Double, double, toil and trouble, Rectum burn and anus bubble.

With the upcoming elections, the Spanish accounts I follow on here have become almost as annoying as Americans. Fortunately, unlike the US, home of the perpetual election season, the race here only lasts 54 days. No matter the language, though, horserace coverage of politics is brainrot.
