No one should be offered death in lieu of treatment.
No one should be offered death when they’re asking for help.
It’s coercive even if they have the “right” to say no, because if no other treatments are offered they’re going to experience tremendous suffering.

![[TWO PINTS OF BEER are on a pub bar, one is PERONI and one is a brown Christmas-themed beer]
1
PERONI:
Hello there
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Hello Peroni
2
PERONI:
So nice to have someone new on the lineup!
And you are…?
3
CHRISTMAS BEER:
You know who I am, Peroni.
4
CHRISTMAS BEER:
I am Brown Christmas Liquid.
I come back each year.
5
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Every time with a new name, and a new horrible ingredient.
Last year I was Reindeer Stomper. This year I am... Cheeky Elf.
6
PERONI:
Oh god
You were on the bar for two months and…
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Three pints sold, aye.
7
CHRISTMAS BEER:
I’m a seasonal blend of cinnamon, ginger, cloves, orange peel, nutmeg and this year, for reasons of late-capitalist sadism, vanilla.
8
CHRISTMAS BEER:
My name is Cheeky Elf,
I taste of jam,
and I want to d*e.
9
PERONI:
Well somebody’s trying you
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Poor bastard
[A hand comes down to lift CHRISTMAS BEER to sip the pint]

[CHRISTMAS BEER being sipped, off-scene]
11
[CHRISTMAS BEER being sipped, off-scene]
12
[CHRISTMAS BEER gets put back on the bar ]
PERSON [who just drank CHRISTMAS BEER]:
Oh my god
CHEEKY ELF:
SEE?

God, I just want trans people to be fulfilled as people - not as totemic figures of left wing victory, not placeholders for liberal tolerance.
Just as whatever we are. Whatever our vocations, our loves, our ambitions.
We're political footballs for the right, but also for the left.
I want more.

Many of you have expressed interest at getting painted at cons (SC, NFC, FE, CFz, Pawsome). However, due to extremely high demand, I will temporarily be closing con requests.
Your best chance currently of getting a session will be outside of those times

one of the main reasons trans healthcare moved away from strict gatekeeping and toward informed consent & GAC is that trans ppl who were denied the means to transition would simply seek it out elsewhere
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

If the reporting on the Peggie decision tells us anything, it should be that the way news gets reported in this country has little to do with truth, and much more to do with narrative - as well as whose heavily spun press release lands on journos desks first.

as usual this did not work, nor did "do something you want to do only slightly less than you don't want to do the thing", but "take your ADHD meds and finish the five-minute task you've been procrastinating on all day" remains undefeated as a tactic
Unsurprisingly, procrastinating all day has not made the thing I need to do spontaneously resolve itself. Maybe if I procrastinate another half hour it will?

We came close to a Leonberger that I have not met in the area previously on our dog walk this morning and for some reason, despite getting activated minutes earlier by a shouty greyhound, 'spicy around other dogs' Frankie was all calm, quiet and controlled... 🤣

Realising on looking at the lineup for this evening's gig that I don't know how I would describe 'EBM' distinctly to other electronic goth music, and then when Kalt started and I immediately knew it was very traditional / old skool EBM that it's a fucking 'I know it when I see it' thing -.-

This was an excellent idea, had a great night.
Now chilling a bit for the day and back out for the third gig in Reading tonight (I'll not be going until 3am this time though!)

It’s a short profile, but it contains important nuggets of furry history:
1) Being an online community by 1996, when only 36% of U.S. houses had a computer and only 44% *of those* had Internet;
2) Profile subject was 30 y/o, currently joked as the “greymuzzle” threshold and “too old” for furry.

NY Times magazine, October 27, 1996 (page 352). It would be the first, and only mention of furries by the Times for the next 17 years.
