Reposting this again in hopes that some Newsom-loving centrists pause for a second and briefly wonder that maybe, just maybe, trans people are a tiny bit tired of being a sacrificial offering to the idol of lesser fascism
Thank you! 💕

My favorite short story I wrote this year. Please read! Kind of an emotional thing for me.
"Stepan comes to me in a dream, sullen, with a bleeding lower lip split just where his lower canine has been knocked out."

today, beloveds!!

Breaking: two lanes of 9A N are closed, NYPD cars are clogging the traffic, cops are fleeing in the direction of Martha’s Vineyard

Hate seems entirely disproportionate. It’s not my favorite dish in the world, but it’s fine!

What I find primarily interesting about this discourse is that it is usually framed as *voluntary* degrowth
Ooooh potential degrowth discourse on my blessed skyline. This should be interesting (please don't subject me to it)

I find the cultural discourse around this dish fascinating and extremely funny
November 25, 2025 at 12:51 PM
I did! Depending on the recipe it’s not bad?
November 25, 2025 at 11:46 AM
I’m sorry, I just think it’s funny! Enjoy whatever foods you like.

Thanks for the flashback

14 reads like the first draft of Bartleby, the Scrivener
I just found this old picture of a poster that was on the wall at the school my friend taught at and there’s some incredible stuff in there

Another great piece by @gonebabygone.bsky.social on RFK and Trump's efforts to claw back all of the progress made by people with autism over the years.

I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, being foreign and all, but I absolutely appreciate a few days off, which I will predictably spend trying to escape Connecticut and see that guy I really like.

And definitely gives credence to the stoners are loners bit
November 25, 2025 at 12:12 AM
Worth a read! I learned a lot

That’s illegal

It is quite remarkable and unlike anything else

Share a 90s movie you think deserves more love… 🎥 🖤

My words were quite explicitly a commentary on a podcast episode, which discusses a specific extremely bad take that scientists should battle disinformation by communicating via science fiction. Targeted at Davos tech bros who are notorious for misunderstanding scifi.

I won’t claim it as a universal experience, but no one was shittier to me personally than white feminists

I remember the great discourse during the metoo peak about “can you imagine if the victims of Catholic church sex abuse were girls? No one would’ve believed them!” and yeah

Should I ask them how trans men fit into this worldview?

They cut off the punchline of “Powder Blue” from the version on streaming! Here’s the original, they start introducing the band at 2:25. Wonder if it’s still complete on the CD version? (It is on mine but I bought it when it came out.)
ween - powder blue (original version in high quality)
