WTAF people ?!!
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

Such beauty!
Yesterday’s winter beauty at the beach. Curls of ice, dripping with icicles, gentle waves lapping the share. A sunset missing the usual pinks and purples, though gloriously golden.

Wow. Just wow.
I'm an avid sock knitter. Over the years I have accumulated a TON of leftover bits of sock yarn. I spent five+ years carrying them around and knitting hexipuffs whenever I had a free moment. The result is the Beekeeper's Quilt by Tiny Owl Knits. This fits our king-sized bed. #KnitSky #knitting 🧶

yes, I will embrace this advice
instead of writing “sorry for the delayed response” say “darkness took me and I strayed out of thought and time,” it’s more exciting and suggests that you recently had a rumble with a Balrog of Morgoth.

No one can really know what the future holds, and literature & film reflect our fears - hopeful, cooperative, humans-doing-better stories are in woefully short supply.

Art moves us, art teaches, and art remembers. Honour the artists who share history and truth as well as beauty and pain.
