Boundary Bay trail: November 22, 2025. ❤️
A woman in winter clothing and a red hat looks up into an autumn firestorm and lines of trees. Closeup of dried leaves and moss next to a stream. A woman in winter clothing and a red hat walks alongside a stormy mountain lake; mountains and cloud cover are behind her.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…
A screenshot of a Facebook post where a person named Andy ask the Well now “What the hell is transgender?” The Royal Canadian Air Force account response with “That’s a pretty big question asked in a pretty small way, Andy. ‘Transgender’ putting describes someone whose gender – who they know themselves to be – doesn’t match the sex they were assigned at birth. It’s not new, and it’s certainly not a fad. People have lived this experience for as long as people have existed; we’re just finally talking about it openly. You don’t have to fully understand it right away, most learning takes time, but we can always start from a place of respect. That’s how decent folks handle things they’re still getting used to.”

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.
Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

TLDR: Teen Vogue's coverage is about to be watered down in a way that serves no one. The politics section, which featured cutting edge stories on repro rights, the economy, and more is now gone. Black women are no longer at what remains.

Everybody loses. This is #TheDoubleTax.

It’s that time of year again! Today I took photos with the death mask my sister cast of my face back when I was 22. (Yes, it’s just as disturbing in RL.)
