Look, I'm just gonna tell cishet white people right now--Newsom ain't the one. You got Walz and Pritzker out here. You do not need a Bill Clinton clone wearing Mitt Romney's skin.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

The right is full of grown-ass adults who are afraid of vaccines, kid's books, and anyone Twitter or OAN tells them to fear, including the entirety of NYC, and NYC is full of people who cheerfully chase federal agents out of the state and then do stunts on Citibikes; you tell ME who's going to win.
The scene now at Lafayette and Howard, diagonal to the ICE garage which activists remain camped out in front of on both sides of the building.

the hardest part about being trans is being forced to accept that your family probably kinda sucks, whereas if you're cis you can likely tolerate only seeing your lead-poisoned uncle a few times a year because "oh he's family". we don't really get the comfort nor convenience of cognitive dissonance.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I want to jam with the folk punks and I want to play Ashokan Farewell for my dad (taking bets on whether it will make him cry).

Why did I decide to play the fiddle again after two decades of disinterest? Two reasons, really.
October 2, 2025 at 12:51 AM
I started playing the fiddle again a few weeks ago. It's been 20 years since I last played! But I'm picking it back up quicker than I expected.

"Do they lose their shit when a trans woman contradicts them" remains a rock solid test of who someone actually is.

ironically, being a transexual frog sitting in a pot approaching the boil is the necessary process to get electrolysis, FFS, etc which are necessary (for most of us) to evolve beyond the amphibian trope

How long am I going to sit in this pot of water while I feel it warming? At what temperature does my tolerance fall away and I leap out, into the unknown?

Not the first time I lived in a fascist household, but definitely the longest length of time

currently stuck between two fascists: the president who wants me and everyone like me dead and eradicated, and my aunt, who voted for him and has let me live with her several months rent free

the boundary between reality and dream world seems ever-thinning, seams over-stretched, teems with potential for both good and bads, teams with the best and worst of intentions jockeying everywhere

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike

since the only property I have any hope of possessing is my body, this current attack on trans rights and gender affirming care is the highest stakes battle I could imagine
