Okay, the April 2022 Blahaj shortage, that's on us
A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Another reason for me to love Oregon
opb.org OPB @opb.org · 18h
On this day 55 years ago, blubber went boom at the Oregon Coast.

That's when officials made the legendary decision to blow up a dead whale.

Here's a look back at the explosive piece of Oregon lore with a 2020 story by OPB's Tiffany Camhi written ahead of the whale of a tale's 50th anniversary.
‘It was like a blubber snowstorm’: Why Oregon blew up a whale in 1970
The exploding whale is a piece of Oregon lore that just won’t go away. It’s one of those real-life stories that just sounds too strange to be real.

Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldn’t be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.

I will owe @anitmata.bsky.social at least one extra hug tomorrow for helping me steer out of this. (My therapist helped too.) I am so lucky to know her, to love her and to be loved by her.
I feel like being responsible and planning things out carefully should have earned me the right to not be having a panic attack right now. I am literally looking at my mostly packed luggage and sobbing for no real reason

Riding the bus to Kitchener. Space is... cramped. But it's only an hour. #marcycan

She is too
Luckily, the big snow heap up here in Kitchener happens to coincide with me being way too sore to spend a bunch of time out and about. It's supposed to warm up later this week, and by then I should be feeling more limber.

Also I made my girlfriend breakfast this morning so I am very happy

Yes I edit my pics. Yes I use filters. Yes I use camera angles. Yes I take fifty photos and keep one. But that is besides the point. The right is me. That is me. No amount of phone trickery can remove that.

It is absolutely wild to me that these are the same person. Wild. About a year apart.

It's little tiny things. Ok I lost a lot of weight, but:

- got better at makeup (the makeup artist did me a dirty on the left)
- started wearing lipstick
- worked out how to play with my hair parting

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.
