a group of people were like "i found a way to live my life as a truer version of myself" and instead of being like "that's beautiful, how can i help" people were like "i don't think schools should have books in them anymore"

Drank too many vodka cranberries tonight. Currently in the chugging water and praying phase. Had a good night, but ughhh drinking has too high a cost nowadays.

If Mamdani wins, I might seriously consider moving to NYC.

Brewers tonight:

two men wearing headphones are sitting in front of a sign that says abc .

Alt: Dan Fouts from the movie the waterboy. He's saying "last game of the year, can't hold anything back now." Im using this in relation to the Brewers starting their injured closer in a documentary or die game.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I know it's early today, but this is the first time since Nov 6 that I actually feel momentum for us. This NYC mayor election is the most crucial election for trans people, maybe ever.

Bought a BP when I first started transitioning, it was great. Now I want more. Did I buy the medium like a smart person? No I bought the biggest one and the struggle is real.

I'd start conversion therapy tomorrow if Trump agreed to successfully draw a clock on live tv.

Is it bad that I kinda wanna go to Texas to seduce the undercover transgender cop? I really think I could turn her to the dark side.

We need to stop pretending like liberals are giving up on trans people as some sort of grand strategy, and that they'll sneak us in the back with a bag on our heads after the election.

Conservatives will not vote for you. Even if they did, they are going to extort you every election.

Had I not denied my queerness until Covid, I would have probably written erotic fan fiction of Bo Burnham and Penelope Scott getting together.

I'm starting to think 100% of our energy should go towards the military. We are on a course that can only be stopped by the military, or that the military looks the other way once the fuse it lit.
