Josie!!! You posted a reel a long-ass while back where you said something like "are they a boy or a girl, you can't tell but you think I'm hot and that makes you gay" (which, first of all, yes). I can't find it, but I want to cite it in my dissertation ✨😅 Got a link?

The bar might be low but #LastWeekTonight did a much needed piece on #trans people in sports. It's wild how relieving it is to have a major TV pop-news show talk about trans people as if we were, you know, human.

Fucking around with mobility exercises. These just cannot be called "crow hops" but that's the best I got so far. Suggestions?

The Trading Game - Gary Stephenson

So far, I appreciate the conversational tone of the prose. I also like that the word "oboe" is *always* preceded by "the fucking".

In interviews I ask questions like:

"For those who don't know, what does 'DEI' mean?"

"What's a 'diversity hire'"?

"How do you define 'woke'?"

"Can you tell us what you mean by 'wokeness'?"

That usually does it. (I led immersive crisis communications trainings for NGOs for years.)
This. Avoid using their term of DEI, and say, "He blamed the situation on people of color, gay people, and women." Put the racism front and center.

Otherwise, we let them control the narrative the way "pro-life" became the accepted term rather than describing those folks as anti-abortion.
Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Trying to wrap my head around intimacy as an analytical phenomenon, and its relationships with publicness. Thoughts?

For British trans people:

You legally are owed healthcare

If your GP says no and you can afford it, sue them

If you can't, then ask to see someone else and write the most brutal middle class sounding complaint you can

They are not allowed to deny you trans healthcare
The UK continues to quietly force trans adults to detransition. It was never about trans youth. Doctors in the UK are withdrawing hormones without warning and cutting tags people off even after decades of being on HRT.

GPs halting transgender patients’ hormone treatment or refusing prescriptions
Investigation: GPs cite lack of expertise or funding as key factors in withdrawals of trans patients’ prescriptions. Billie Gay Jackson and Holly Bancroft report

Proof of concept: Modular, meaning I can just add more slots when needed. Parametric, meaning automatically adjustable dimensions. The shelves are angled so the books slide in. Very satisfying. Also extremely satisfied with the Hilbert curve pattern on top.

If you don't know, the websites where I upload 3D models reward points for each download/like/make/review. It's honestly a really generous system because the points translate into 'free' printing material or even brand new printers.

Consider checking them out, if for no other reason to help me out
