You people out here with your "principles".

Starting on exactly January 21st, I'm gonna believe in state's rights with a fervor that would shock a Confederate. Washington shouldn't be interfering with the lives of honest, hard-working Americans and more reckless spending will ruin the economy!
For a while after I accepted I was trans, I thought my old self wasn't. That if you hooked my 12 y/o self up to The Gender Machine (tm), little Ohmic would be cis. My transness had just been acquired at some point as I grew and changed.

Now, I think that's valid, but I don't think it's me anymore.
Other trans people, give me your weird gender thoughts:

How do you conceptualize your pre-transition self?

Did you "kill" [deadname] so the real You could live?

Did You just become different?

Do you hate or love [deadname]? Or something in between? Has that feeling changed with time?

Assuming all fanfiction is written poorly really just shows you've never been caught in the chokehold of a 150k slowburn that changed the course of your life at 2:40am written by someone whose username has 4 Zs in it and they only wrote one fic and then vanished like an ethereal legend.

I just want to point out that what Trump says he will do is at best an unreliable predictor of his behavior.

He cares enough about tariffs that he'll probably do *something* with them, but the actual countries and percentages? All up in the air, regardless of what he says.
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said on Monday that on his first day in office he would impose a 25% tariff on all products from Mexico and Canada, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China, citing concerns over illegal immigration and the trade of illicit drugs reut.rs/4i5s3KE
Trump pledges tariffs on Canada and Mexico, more on China too

I think, and I wish there was a way to make this sound nicer, most people don’t have belief systems. They have individual beliefs but there’s no real effort to make them gel nor any real concern about the contradictions.
To me being friends with MAGA reinforces their rationalization that demeaning others is just harmless "trash talk." It’s like joking with a friend about Patriots fans being demons, everyone knows it’s not serious so they’re not bad people. They want to believe their rhetoric causes no real harm.

🧵🧵 While everyone was understandably focused on national politics, something happened in Texas this week that has received far less attention than it deserves, given its potential consequences. And I'd guess even very plugged-in folks dont realize the full scope.

Let me explain (at length):

Do you all have any hobbies you've picked up recently? Or just something you like to share.

Personally, I've been writing fiction a lot lately and it's been surprisingly fun. I thought it wouldn't be for me for a long time, but now that I've started I can't stop lol.

Questing Beast/ Ben Milton / the Knave guy is now being sponsored by a publisher that had a "Meltdown sale" to celebrate 'triggering the libs' after the US election; 47% off (and, side bonus, AI image to advertise).

You may not be aware that over the last 50 years, the Supreme Court has chipped away at your Miranda rights case by case, rendering them weak and ineffective. You no longer have the right to remain silent, to an attorney, not with the foece you used to. Time for a history lesson. /🧵
Please document the gutting of Miranda in the US. I’ll wait.

Last night, 19 Senators voted to end illegal arms sales to Israel.

We stood up to AIPAC, the Democratic Senate leadership, and the Biden administration.

We must continue going forward to end illegal arms sales and hold Netanyahu accountable for his war crimes.

Seems the cabinet rotation is starting early this time.

I wonder if this was more internal pressure or fear of the report being leaked.

I'm going to tell you a quick story about a messed up situation in Mississippi.

It's about state officials who have voided direct democracy thru an absurd excuse, & now are refuse to yield it back to people.

And, therefore, about why you should care—right now—about something happening next week. ⬇️
