Gods damnit, every time I think I won’t be impressed by yet *another cover* of a lifelong favourite, @iambrandicarlile.bsky.social does it again.

First Hallelujah, now Space Oddity…

Uhm, you forgot Kindergarten Cop.

Just kidding, it’s just the first cop movie that sprang to my mind reading your post and made me chuckle. I haven’t seen it in decades, I wonder where it lands on the scale of copaganda.

Or when making a public spell g mistake was a big deal because politicians were afraid to appear unprofessional or unprepared in any way.

I know it was a good therapy session when I’m walking around the rest of the day feeling like my skin’s on inside out or my bones have shifted and everything hasn’t settled back into place yet.

you ever hope to win if your opponent has no limits on the depths to which they sink but you insist on keeping to the high road?

I’m feeling a lot of complicated feelings about the ethics of violence and when do we say enough is enough.

I used to be a strong believer in civil disobedience but these days I find myself thinking about Popper’s paradox a lot and humming Spanish Train in my head — how can. 1/2

autistic queer trans guy with a ‘female’ reproductive system, my basic human rights have been threatened by this guy and his cronies on multiple levels for years and I get to feel how I feel right now.

What if the shooting of a right-wing-extremist yesterday is proof of time travel?

Like maybe someone somewhere in the future took the old question of “if you could go back in time and kill Hitler, should you?” as an actual suggestion.

That moment when you finally get your iced latte and snag a table in the busy coffee shop and pull out your journal ready to soul-dump…

…and your goblin brain explodes in minor panic and intense fury because you brought the wrong fuxking pen for that task.

Every day @markhamillofficial.bsky.social reminds us of what it means to resist corrupt power, eschew the call of the dark side and fight for what’s right.

Every day @stephenking.bsky.social proves he is a really good writer.

This is Tasmania right now.

I am seriously trying to think of a way to set up my life so I can follow the colder seasons all year. #fucksummer #sensoryhell

One of my ducks is definitely a goose.

A territorial, unreasonable, cranky goose that just wants to wreck havoc on the world.

Like that goose game but super charged, like a Canada goose in mating season IYKYK

Yeah, reading the first bit I was like, it’s a great idea unless “the calls are coming from inside the house” and you are both.

Ok, I need #blueskyhelp I want to be here more than other platforms but my feed isn’t nearly as as good a fit for my interests.

I know it’s all algorithms, what’s the best way to shift them to include what I want to be seeing?

*to clarify, I’m trans-masc-nonbinary which means I don’t identify as male or female but feel more comfortable on the masculine/‘traditionally male’ side of the spectrum and find being misgendered as female particularly dysphoric.

Got called ‘sir’ by the tech at the lab today. First time that’s ever happened in public.

Yes, I was wearing a mask but I always wear one here and have always been called m’am.

So, that’s pretty cool.*

I love that he has the courage to name her and calls out the damage she’s doing.

Seeing Daniel Radcliffe not only speak out but show up with real support means more than words. $5 million donated and a clear message: trans people belong. Thank you, Daniel. 🏳️‍⚧️💖✨

Actually working on a new writing project.

I finished a very messy draft of one novel mid-pandemic and have barely written any fiction since then.

Like stretching muscles and finding some of the old strength there and how good it feels to flex them again

Trying to work on authenticity and fighting lifelong habits of people pleasing… and somehow I never prepared myself specifically for the fact that this process will inevitably end up with people being “not pleased” with me/what I do.

Seems so obvious when I put it like that… 🤦

Happy Winter solstice Australia.

Yeah, at first I was amused.

And then I thought about it and realized it was a good thing I didn’t just freak out.

It’s not like it would be hard to look at the doctor who ordered the bloodwork and see why I was referred to her….

Rennick Dunollie @dunollie.bsky.social · May 5

#translife That moment when your GPs office calls because a new nurse looked at your bloodwork results and freaks out.

Because they don’t know you’re on gender affirming HRT prescribed by your specialist.

Yeah… those testosterone levels would be somewhat alarming, lol.

Sang with my rainbow choir at a local United Church pride service today and they read this poem.

Thought I might share it for anyone who needs to hear this today.
