TRANS FOLKS, and others who need to hear this:
You're seen. You're loved. You have people out there you've never met, willing to fight for you and to help you get through today, this month, this year, this term.
Tell the ones you love that you love them today -- especially if they're trans.

Was on stage at a con trying to help the guests of honor onto the main events stage for an all-guest Q&A. Was taking steps backward to allow guests to file in. Ran out of stage. Ended up on my back on the main events floor. Bruised tailbone.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

LRP: This is the tool I mentioned.
I have self-developed my own tool from scratch from the ground up and it does a very good job of archiving Personal & Community Journals. It saves local copies of the journals on a user's computer and creates an inventory of what was archived. vidder.gumroad.com/l/ljarchivr

LRP: This is the tool I mentioned.
If you have a LJ account, even if you haven't posted in a decade-plus, it's a good idea to just either move it over to DW or you can download it to your local machine month by month, or use the tool in the comments ($20) to archive everything locally.
Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:

Everyone has the right to love and be loved, regardless of gender.
No one can infringe on the ability to express love
Something so simple has become complicated in our world
Let's all raise our voices to solve this problem and create a world where we can express love freely and openly.

Okay 2026, I'm gonna lay it out for you.
The last guy '25 was a REAL fuckup, so you got a low bar to clear. You can do it. You can be better. I believe in you.

My theme for 2025 ended up being "radical survival." Impromptu move, job change, losing disability income, temp vision loss in one eye, and as of tonight potentially having my car totalled by an aggressive driver who ended up driving me off the road and into a culvert pipe. (I'm not injured.)

Also? Hi. I'm here. I still exist. Right now minus vision in one eye but surviving if purely out of spite. It's been a pretty bad year, I'm not going to lie. I've really fallen off the edge of the cliff, even with meds and therapy. But I'm hanging on. And I'm still here. You can do the same, too. ❤️🩹

Some say it is best to live without regrets, but sometimes regrets are necessary to uncover honor within yourself. We learn kindness from the example of others, but also from reflecting on times when we were unkind, regretting those moments, and vowing to do better.

more than "you should play bad games because a maligned game might be good" i would prefer if the positive contrarian dogma was "you should play games that genuinely interest you regardless of what other people think" because holy shit the former leads to a lot of turning your misery into Content
