We've been approved for an apartment, so we'll get out of the hotel on the 1st. I'll be relieved to get back to work and have the press back in motion.
A lot of this has been traumatic, but at the moment neither of us has been able to start grieving. We're still in survival mode, I think.

My partner and I made it to Canada, but not without a lot of struggle. For the moment, we're staying in a hotel and searching for a proper place to live. Hopefully, we'll be back online properly soon, and I can go into detail about everything that's happened.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

It is not actually in the President's power to unilaterally rescind or modify regulations that were enacted through notice-and-comment.
Maybe FedSoc judges invent a reason for it, but it's not what precedent or the Administrative Procedures Act says. See, e.g., www.arnoldporter.com/en/perspecti...

I've been watching #TLOU reactions from the sidelines. The amount of people saying they no longer want to watch it indicates a major failure in translating the game. Every storytelling medium has it's own needs. A 1:1 translation isn't always possible and shouldn't always be the goal.

Saw Sinners last night with my partner and I'm still thinking about it. Honestly, it was such a beautiful movie~

Back for a bit. Basically, I was working on a discrimination suit after being fired. I complained to HR about discrimination and then about the subsequent retaliation I faced at the hands of Scale AI. The company is going through the ringer with multiple lawsuits regarding shit practices. 🧵

I am bewildered that trans people seem to be happily disposable for so many folk … we are either parsed into monsters or denied our basic dignities … this is the bleak road, the bleak bleak road and so many of us have warned about it for so long … and I hope there is still time to get off it …

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.
5 Calls
Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

This week has been a busy nightmare. Lots to do and so little time in the day. Meetings with lawyers, visits to the courthouse for personal paperwork, things with IDs and getting passports, etc. I just want to take a day to write and focus on my own creative pursuits.
