My biggest brag is that I've gotten to vote for AOC once and Zohran twice. Fucking hell I love New York City.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

When I first moved to NYC eight (!!!!!) years ago, I was in AOC's district and got to vote for her. Last week I got to vote for Zohran in early voting. These are the two elections I was most excited about and optimistic to be not just a New Yorker but a US citizen, because of those votes.

After finishing a devastating memoir last night about a family fighting for their trans daughter's rights in NH, this win for my home state is particularly nice to see.
Democrat Billie Butler has won a special election for the NH House by a 55-45 margin, very close to Harris' 55-44 margin in 2024.
Butler, a trans woman, was the target of vicious anti-trans attacks by Republicans.

Been making my way through my June TBR (99% queer obv) which led to a discussion with a friend about our lack of awareness of much fiction featuring trans women. I've read Lady For A Duke by Alexis Hall and Chef's Choice by TJ Alexander but can't think of other examples I've seen around. Recos?

I really tried to hold off on reading Emberclaw until after my last midterm test but I only have so much self control. I mean, come on. Dragons. Queer normative world. So much YEARNING. I'll be up until the wee hours, I fear. I loved Dragonfall (book one) but this is even better.

So I will be participating in this, considering we just learned about notice and comment rule making in my admin law class and I just heard about this today. I highly recommend participating, time is winding down but it's wildly important and an act of resistance that's fairly easy to participate in
Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.
You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.
My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

Sometimes when I get really sad about the state of the world, I remember that MUNA exists and more specifically that their live performance of I Know A Place exists and I watch and feel a bit of joy and hope. That extended bridge? Instant chills.
