Oh, hey It’s #intersex awareness day I am And because the entire system lies to intersex people & suppresses our stories, while I knew something -had- to be up, I did not know I was intersex until I was almost 30 That was tough Raise awareness, so it’s not so hard for others #LGBTQIA

You don't need that Starbucks latte. 12,000 baristas have organized. They've spent years fighting for a fair first contract. They're demanding better pay, more hours, safe staffing and basic protections. Support the workers, not the corporation stonewalling them. Boycott Starbucks!

Yes I’m bitter The state has a monopoly on violence. That’s core to the anarchist critique. Shaming individual people for not allowing themselves to be hurt by intimate partners if it means using state violence is liberalism. it’s like getting mad at people for buying homes only misogynistic

I met him once, at a gate-show con when I was 14. In the elevator, not in any paid line, but he signed my badge for me anyway. A gentleman.

I put off eating breakfast late enough that I decided a savory lunch-like thing was in order so I’m making some congee. Breakfast has been represented by the coffee with spray-can cold foam (I would not have bought it myself, but as the kid did, I’m not too proud to have some)

Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend. To the fans who loved him for so many years, thank you. He loved you too. Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course. – George

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

Get your pumpkin carving kit *now* before it's later tonight and you convince yourself a steak knife will work just fine, but it won't and you'll be posting on Bluesky saying, "I just lacerated myself carving a pumpkin. CPSC is going to be so disappointed in me :( "

Okay, I'm blown away by how fast we are approaching the goal! Only $16 left to reach the threshold to trigger a new fiction serialization at my patreon! I thought I'd start the serial on Jan. 1st, but now I'm thinking November 20th? Surely we can get there well before then.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

I always find it interesting when BlueSky angrily says "X group of people isn't stupid!" If only because every group of people has stupid people in it. Stupid people do, in fact, exist. It is difficult for BlueSky, the retirement home for former gifted kids, to come to terms with this.

...make it conventional wisdom that anti-trans hate (ICE/Muslim bashing/autocracy etc.) is electoral poison. Succeed in that, and there's a good chance that Dems (and perhaps even the GOP, if it was a healthy party, which it isn't) will react accordingly.

Oh, and as I've said before: If you support something that the Republicans have been running against, be ready Tuesday night to start claiming that it's why Dems won and keep hitting that as hard as you can. Yes, even if Dems were/are bad on it. Do what you can to....

This is why I have to wait forever in line at the corner store even though there’s only one person ahead of me

as much as i’d rather build something new, we have to takeover and gut the democratic party all that infrastructure belongs to the people, not the loser ass DCCC consultant class that has reduced it to nothing since the clinton era
