Thank you! It was kinda spur of the moment for me, I had done my coming out to family and close friends and HR at work and I was getting antsy and then boom! It was the tiny push I needed.

A lot of people don’t have anything against trans folks, but a lot of people sure would like to have something against trans folks

This should probably just be my pinned post

Is this a good idea? Probably not, but that’s the Callie difference.

Now I just want people to stop giving me makeup (well, for the most part!)

One hard reality of transitioning is that, no matter how much you don’t want them to, people will still try and talk to you about sports

There’s a taco place here that used to make an Al pastor taco that tasted exactly like Hawaiian pizza and I just couldn’t

Working in surgery is much more juvenile than hospital shows let on.

Coworker: This instrument set didn’t have everything the doc needed and she was really frustrated and snippy with me, can we fix it so I’m not just standing around…
Me: With your dick in your hand?
Her: If I had one, yes, that’s where it would be instead of at home in a drawer.

This is my best restaurant idea since my Irish small-plate breakfast diner named “Tapas the Morning to You”

One great tactic against fascists is to do something in protest that’s dumb and silly, but something that they still have to respond to or they’ll look dumb and silly, and then when they do respond they REALLY look dumb and silly.

Stay strong, Antifa amphibians.

This video is everywhere because it's a hilarious visual refutation of Portland being on fire. You can't get a mass movement going without convincing the masses

so yes, this does do something actually

This literally does nothing. You are not beating fascism by dressing up in inflatable suits and dancing

Portland is leading the way. This is how you (non violently) beat Fascism. Humor and ridicule are key.

I do think it would be amazing if hundreds of protesters just showed up dressed like ICE. They’d be absolutely baffled, they’d have no way to tell who’s who. They’re all dressed in off-the-rack Cabelas clothes since they don’t seem to have a standard uniform so it’s easy.
