White cis het GenX male--but don't hold it against me. Friend to all but the willfully uninformed.

The hell the US is going through? The pain, the terror? I see it. Am experiencing it. Plus I've got cancer. Cut me some f'ing slack.

Oh, and mask up.

So if Olivia is 32 now, broke up with Lizza last year, was together with him for a decade, and then was living with you for 4+ years before that, how old was she when you moved her out of her (presumably parents’) house in the suburbs to live with you?
Btw about this from Lizza's reply: Olivia and I lived together for 4+ years (4 b'days, 4 Xmases, 4 anniversaries). That's like $1250 of jewelry per celebration. And her apartment was a writing studio. And I made an f-ton then. What was I supposed to do? Get her a lot of Gift Certificates from Kmart?

Happy Transgender Awareness Week! 🏳️‍⚧️ 💙💗🤍
There have always been trans people.

There will always be trans people.

The only "trans agenda" is to live authentically.

Removing trans rights, banning trans people from sports, taking away care for trans people puts you on the wrong side of history.

Trans rights are human rights 🩵💗🤍

What's wild is that Covid ruined so many people's sense of smell, and they don't even know it, that Covid actually kind of did make people stinkier
If COVID had made everyone stink instead of air dangerous, every school would’ve fixed this by 2021.

I love this video. It was a huge inspiration for LYCH ROAD in Ghost Hunter's Guide to the Alphabet, a supernatural trading post for ghosts in Wellington on the site of the former Bolton Cemetery. LYCH ROAD only appears when you enter the ruins area in this video -- slowly.
Nine years ago I starred in a short film about these tunnels youtu.be/TGzgM-xcOI0

The lowest state age of consent in the US is 16.

It disgusts me to hear the "...they can't even define what a woman is..." crowd suddenly feigning ignorance about the definition of what a CHILD is in defense of the pedophiles they willfully and erroneously conflate all of the LGBTQ community with.

somebody brought this up once in the context of Florida voters in 2000 and it fucked me up so much

just the cascading effects on our whole society from losing such a tidal wave of queer people
A few weeks ago I was talking politics with a local, highly straight, bartender.

All the sudden he said: “Well, I think a big part of the problem is that so many of the people who would’ve been our progressive leaders died of AIDS & can’t help us now.”

And I’ve thought about that every day since.

I am grateful every day that so many of the worst people in politics are stupid. Things are horrible but they could be a lot worse with an ounce of intelligence.
