Never forget the entire anti-trans hype machine is built on lies. It's not "cruel truths" or "two sides." It is blatant, deliberately cruel lies.

They are liars.

Never give them the benefit of the doubt, because they are proven, deliberate, malicious liars.
every politician who attempts to ban gender-affirming care for trans youth is anti-science, transphobic, or some combination. prior to their votes, they should be forced onto cross-sex hormones so they can experience the horror they're inflicting on these kids

Dear Democratic candidates,

You cannot keep the rest of us warm by burning the marginalized.

Supporting trans rights is neither optional nor negotiable.

Translation of the letter sent from Venezuela to the United Nations. Apologies if the translation is not exact. And to be clear, Venezuela, we Americans do not want war. We are dealing with a mad king.

At #AGU25 ! I'm not a research scientist, I'm just here because my lovely fiance, Dr. @silva-telmatology.bsky.social, is presenting some posters and I tagged along. This has been an AMAZING experience as basically a tourist visiting the foreign world of Geophysics and related stuff!

One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging:
1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal.
2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

#Ilford 3200 ISO film shot on a Pentax SF1. A shot in fog, one of my dog, and a mountain over a marsh.

I LOVE this film! The grain is actually awesome. #filmphotography #film #photography

Scored an old Pentax SF1 at a thrift store! Late 80s fully electronic film camera with autofocus. Put a roll through it, waiting for it to be developed to see if it worked!

#FilmPhotography pics taken on #Minolta X-700 and Pentax 17. Film used was #Cinestill 800T, Ilford HP5, and Kodak Gold 200.

I love how the Cinestill came out in the daytime despite being more of a night time film. Black and white pics taken on the #Pentax half frame.
