for everyone else: buy trans literature & art NOW while you can.

there’s a non-zero chance that queer and *especially* trans voices wind up being temporarily silenced at some point over these next 4 years.

support trans people *now* while we can still ask for help & make incredible art in public.
Basic Issue Cis White Guys like me. Listen up.

No, this isn't an exaggeration in any way. Trans Erasure is going to be part of banning all porn (mentioning LGBTQ+ will be considered porn) and establishing a national firewall (information control).

Seems like the right path
if you’re cis, don’t offer trans people meaningless platitudes. instead:
- pay for someone’s HRT
- help a trans person find employment and housing
- donate to local trans organizations
- contact your reps and demand non-compliance with policies targeting trans people
- *listen* to us

Do you really have to use a third party app on BlueSky to edit posts?

Because I'd much rather edit than have to be a proofreader.

I'm a pretty big nerd for Hideo Kojima's opus, the Metal Gear games, and this review has me almost certain to buy the board game. Sounds like they nailed stealth mechanics and have great boss fights.

I looked it up, just to confirm. Generally a decent summation of a Japanese word. More in the comments on its pearly use.

When I experience it, it’s among the most meaningful experiences in my life.

Hey so any of the folks who claimed — without evidence — that Biden was profiting off of the Presidency:

Any comment about Trump and his wife dropping new shitcoins on inauguration weekend?

I’m an Oz nerd going back to the 80s and Eric Shannower’s graphic novels. I’m also a comics retailer (Rogues Gallery; Round Rock, TX) and I had a chance to sneak a read of this early.

It’s really good! Really feels like you’re walking around in Oz, and some of the more remote corners at that.
In 1 week…

I knew it would be visually spectacular, and it was, with many scenes like paintings brought to life, but I also really liked the story and characters in this third incarnation of the famous silent movie. I expect I’ll be turning it over in my head for a bit. A strong first impression.
