Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

New rule: if you’re a Supreme Court Justice and you’re mentioned in the Epstein files, you have to recuse from any future lawsuit about the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

The only truly irreversible thing a trans child is likely to do is take their own life. "What if they do something irreversible?" actually means "theyre not allowed to make a decision!"

You cant undo or reverse any decision you make, you can simply change your mind later and handle the consequences

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Trans people have literally always been here; every time I see someone sneering "oh but there were no trans people when I was in high school," well. I dated a trans girl in high school, and was close friends with a trans guy.

I don't know if there are any trans kids living in Alberta on bluesky but if there are, I need to beg something of you:

Stay with us. Survive. Live. Please stay.

It is going to be hard, I know. I'm so sorry. The government doesn't want you to exist, but I do.

I will fight for you.

And this is the essence of pedocon theory and why bodily autonomy is The Fight

People who aren’t them are not fully human and don’t possess any right to bodily autonomy; after that, sexual predation is an utter inevitability
Okay real talk? I kind of don’t even care about what Epstein was or wasn’t attracted to, what matters is what he fucking did and what people participated in and enabled

There’s what gets you horny and then there’s deciding that satisfying your horniness is important enough to ruin someone’s life

Art is resistance.
As always, today is a great day to support artists, writers, creators of all sorts. If you have the means, buy a book, sign up for someone's Patreon, commission an art piece. It's also a lovely day to leave a nice comment, post a short review, spread the word about someone's work. Everything helps.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Andrew Mountbatten Windsor losing all of his titles over just the possibility of the Epstein files coming out tells me all I need to know about just how bad the contents are, and why the Republicans are so desperate to never let it out.
The thing that’s so fucked up about the Epstein files is that if they’re bad bad for Trump, it’s gonna come out, and every Republican who knew what they were doing protecting him is gonna get flayed for it. And if they weren’t bad for him at all, they’d be out already.
