There’s some finishes I’ll get to this weekend but I did create my dream S/S 94 Westwood inspired gown.

This is so cool. Zohran Mamdani just released the 2026 NYC Dev Roadmap and he's updating Williamsburg with not one but TWO new 20-man raids with their own endgame armor sets and weapons

I finished the rest of my seafood tower to go with my oysters and I'm so proud of them and also hope they survive my drive across the state.

unfired clay seafood tower - with 3 shrimp, 2 deviled eggs, lemon wedges, crab claws, 2 trays, and 2 condiment containers

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 1d

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

It is tacky for really famous people to be in TV commercials for products. Their gambling debts/boat repairs are not my problem, those roles should belong to actors like the Time To Make The Donuts guy and the actress who said "who are you calling a cootie queen you lint licker" in that Orbit ad.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

Bless Taylor Swift for reminding me about Sympathy is a Knife, which my 6 year old is obsessed with, giving me a reprieve from System of a Down’s Lonely Day.

Scary movie cocktail week 5 of 5:

"sempre viva" from "death becomes her"

A surprisingly semi-sec ode to the diet breakfast of mean middle aged women everywhere (half a grapefruit), un-rotting honey, and preserved flowers.

Bottoms up.

I went to the bakery that just opened last weekend and bought a box of donuts! Done in procreate today because I cleaned up my art supplies.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

The Verge @theverge.com · May 26

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

I’m wearing a crop top today and you can see glimpses of my rib tattoo which made me extremely excited about the tattoo on the other side I am starting in 2 weeks.
