At least BlueSky lets me post links. New article is up. Every year this piece has grown more popular but this year I felt the need to adapt it to our times in 2024.

It’s a shame all of this is still relevant.

I don’t support for profit medicine but I have to tell you i really think pharmaceutical companies are sleeping on “he is risen” as a coupon code for ED meds.

All I’m saying is The Powerpuff girls are made from sugar, spice, and everything nice plus some random ass chemical X and nobody tells them they’re not allowed to use the ladies bathroom.

They’re biologically a sentient breakfast cereal but SURE act like I’m the problem.
