Howdy new followers!

I’m Keira!

Yes, I’m trans.

I talk about lots of stuff but given the looming…. Unpleasantness for
LGBTQ people I’m probably gonna spend a lot of time ranting about those issues so uh, be forewarned.

If that bothers you, move on.

No seriously, if your entire monetization plan relies on theft, maybe it deserves to not financially succeed?

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

said this to the guy who started BattleTech Texas on FB, he disagreed with me vehemently, and that is why the Discord is a completely separate community now

I don't think I should have to give grace to people who openly fantasize about killing me just because they didn't say it in the group.

Here’s the thing about social media moderation: you need to have both a provision and a practice of keeping people off your platform even if they don’t break any of your rules but are simply just a fucking asshole. And of course off-platform behavior is a legitimate reason.

“So… uh… I wasn’t gonna smoke it here”

I gotcha, dude. I’m not judging smoking a joint.

“I like Montessori schools”

<polite glare> okay?

“Um…”

Etc

Dr. KFA 🏳️‍⚧️ @kfadams.bsky.social · 9h

To be clear, I didn’t snap or yell just “hey dude, no judgement from me, but this is a preschool so uhhh…”

His friend got the hint and moved.

He tried to argue.

“Oh it’s okay man (misgendering, yay) the school is closed for the summer”

Im literally waiting for my daughter to come out.

“Uh…”

Dr. KFA 🏳️‍⚧️ @kfadams.bsky.social · 9h

Look, I have nothing against smoking a joint, but maybe don’t roll it literally in front of the entrance to a fucking preschool, dumbass.

And then spend 5 minutes explaining how you weren’t gonna smoke it there.

Just fucking move to the park literally across the street.

So why did you lose?
60% of white men voted for Trump
53% of white women voted for Trump

Clean your own fucking house before coming into mine with your "purity" bullshit.

Something that gets lost among the "purity test" people who claim Democrats lost because of single voter issues:
Black women voted for Harris at like 90%
Trans people voted for Harris at like 87%
LGB people voted for Harris at like 85%

You didn't lose because of us.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

How about you stop fucking funding ICE.

Democrats are ready and willing to negotiate with Republicans to reopen the government. But we won’t let them take health care away from Oregonians and Americans.

Got some updates from a friend who lives down there, definitely Nazi fucks wandering around looking for a fight.

Dr. KFA 🏳️‍⚧️ @kfadams.bsky.social · 1d

More seriously, there are definitely right wing agitators and assorted maga dipshits gathering.

More than one being super fucking creepy by kids.

I’ve witnessed them try to peel out of the facility and forgot there was a traffic light 50 feet away when I got blocked by one of their goons supposedly doing traffic control when driving to OHSU.

Just clowns.

Dr. KFA 🏳️‍⚧️ @kfadams.bsky.social · 1d

The horror!

I drive past the facility near daily, the protest area is tiny as hell, maybe 150 feet by 30-40.

And these ICE fuckwads are out there cosplaying warfighter every god damn night to fight dancing frogs.
