I have mock-wrap tops that all have the same bug - trying to turn them right-side out leads to a state where they are no longer clothes.

I feel that if I tried to wear them when like that, my head would emerge in a different dimension and there'd be a set of people regarding me like stuffed owls.

“The pope listens to Frankie Knuckles” is both a preposterous statement and something I now truly believe.

Any person who says they have never known a trans person, is a person who has never been trusted by a trans person.

Help! @frenchhistory.bsky.social really wanted this for journal cover next year (we’ve got exciting things coming on quantitative and computational methods) but it’s a challenge finding higher res versions/rights holder.
Do YOU have suggestions to track these down OR alternative, similar images? 🙏🏻 🗃️

A trans fem horror novel where a trans girl is invited to a new server only to find everyone knows each other from elsewhere. She assumed they're just friends. They're actually a death cult and she has been assigned the next sacrifice

I'm still waiting for people to realize that scoffing at romance— the genre that prioritizes emotional journeys and intelligence, internal struggles, unapologetic sex and unselfish sexual partners— is pure misogyny.

You types ever just get bored/fucked off/forget about coming out to friends and relations and just ... stop bothering?

Like, just get on w/yr life and if they want to make it weird then that's very much a them problem?

Asking for ... y'know, I'm not asking tbh.

As I dance, did my ancestors yearn for hips that curve like mine?

As I recline, did my ancestors wish for breasts that swell like mine?

As I brush, did my ancestors ache for hair as long as mine?

Some must have.

If they can see me, I hope those who did can share in my joy.
statistically speaking, you are most likely not the first trans woman in your lineage. sit with that for a moment.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

Wizard Lady + chums want people like me to cease to exist, apparently.

Ok. Then we may be sure that the feeling is entirely mutual.
Oh, good…

Nice to see how the “new” Bluesky Moderation is being handled.

Hey, so. You know the set of rock&roll pics I posted the other month, that were a random sampling from a random photo-envelope from a random box of my late ex's several-decade collection of concert photos what she took at venues mostly in and around Chicago?

Taken away by an university archivist.

there’s really no such thing as writer’s block

there’re just problems with a story you haven’t uncovered or that you’re still working through (maybe even subconsciously)

or it may be motivation problems (for lots of reasons)

or even fear of not executing it well

but writer’s block itself? nah
Alright, share your terrible writing tips that actually work.

Mine is: stop for the day in the middle of a paragraph, a sentence, even in the middle of a word. It feels SO wrong but it makes it 1000x easier to pick up the thread the next day.

Anyway it would be such a shame if everyone following me went and checked out the WSJ article that prompted this, surely nothing incriminating there.
Exclusive | Jeffrey Epstein’s Friends Sent Him Bawdy Letters for a 50th Birthday Album. One Was From Donald Trump.
The leather-bound book was compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell. The president says the letter ‘is a fake thing.’

I will be real about something, it's very hard for me at this moment to not feel deep resentment at the engineers whose fields are pretty explicitly part of creating this destruction, getting the immediate ticket to get out of the country that my wife working in STEM equity and access will never get
- Two engineers at big tech firms you know, one of whom has left the country already, the other is planning on it. Both have discovered that their skills make them employable in places they feel much safer, and where they think the quality of life is better, to boot.

Please enjoy this programmable mechanical organ. It plays from punch cards, which can be cut to order. It even has an adaptor with magnetic valve closures, so can play directly from midi. So it's not all Victorian waltzes... (sound up).
