My father has been dead for five years. It feels like forever and also like no time at all. More than anything, it feels profoundly unfair. As @richardsiken.bsky.social so eloquently put it, "Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is no other version of this story."

"I can walk faster than you run" is the most annoying thing to say to a slow runner. You think I don't know I'm slow? *I* can walk faster than I run because I have the gait of a magnificent pomeranian. This is why I run on a treadmill in a dim room, y'all. I hate being perceived.

Gonna make a mousedeck. Commander Mabel the Cragflame and all mice. When other players attack me I will say, “But sir, I’m just a mouse!” Yes this plan is excellent.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

I am taking particular pleasure in the complete collapse of trans-as-unbeatable-wedge-issue narrative this morning. It might be an 80-20 issue in voters minds, but it has to be on voters minds to matter. The results in VA demonstrate that it is very much not on voters minds.
