New month, new #newsletter, about time mostly but also change and yes I found a way to mention both Fallout: New Vegas and historic clowns, because some things stay the same. buttondown.com/bzedan/archi...

This one is kind of short and is about time and trying again (and again).

USian trans people aren't telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom to cause you distress and despair.

USian trans people are telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom so you don't vote for his transphobic ass in the primaries.

They are giving you actionable information.

people say these guys want feudalism, but even that gives them too much credit, because kings and queens and lords in feudalism had substantial obligations to the peasants, and worried about being disemboweled by the mob if they shirked those obligations for too long
a thing i think about a lot is that the median tech billionaire enjoys a level of privilege, wealth and comfort that even the most profligate medieval king could not have dreamt of, with absolutely none of the responsibilities that king would have had, while constantly demanding to be thanked for it
I was thinking about this over the weekend and I was finding myself drawn back to one line -

People like Jeff Bezos have been rewarded for their industry disruption by never having to worry about money ever again, and yet they also want the rest of the world to personally congratulate them for it.

YOU WILL GET AWAY WITH IT

lose paperwork

decaf instead of regular
overtighten lug nuts
strip spark plugs

IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO MAKE MISTAKES
YOU CAN FIGHT ICE WITHOUT ANY RISKS

Please support this magazine of trans photography.

The work in here (and the first edition which you can get online) is lovely. Easel is made by a very small handful of people, and is incredibly well done. It’s printed BEAUTIFULLY.

Tell your friends about it. ◡̈
They're here :) Pick up a copy at www.readeasel.com

What if all of us (who play games) committed to taking the time tomorrow (Sunday) to write a review of a game (or more) we particularly enjoyed, on a store (Steam...)? Even a short one. That could help.🫡

We could even collect them all in a big thread on Bsky, so we can discover recommendations.

Oh yeah! It’s a new month so tomorrow a new newsletter will be going out. This one both is and isn’t about time, I think. buttondown.com/bzedan
Any Tree, Flowering
This is a junk drawer, or a bug jar. It's a collection of things to look at or that are useful. It's any tree, flowering, it meets the minimum requirements to share with others.

I help my pals every payday because I love them. And their fundraiser isn't one that ever got a lot of eyes or juice so here we are, close to a year since they started it, but they're over halfway! And that's something, remembering that small things can add up, if slowly. gofund.me/dac2bb55a
