I will gleefully be referring to Madam President and all her followers as such from now on 🙂
As sex is now legally set at conception, everybody in America is now female.

This is one of those little problems that arise when you let know-nothing anti-science buffoons pass legislation about reality.

They get it wrong.

Because they're morons.

When my son was 4, a guest left from Thanksgiving dinner to go Black Friday shopping, and it left a negative impression. On our next drop-off drive, his *sock monkey* confided that Sock Monkeys celebrate an alternate holiday, w/ its own traditions. It’s the best day & we observe it each year.

While I was at #aasl23, I took contact info from librarians who would like to get on Bluesky, but don't have an access code. If you have an extra one, please email me at melissa@melissa-stewart.com to me, and I will send it to them. #communitybuilding @debbieohi.bsky.social
