Ah the Bluesky trans cluster

Book cover for the John Green novel, "An Abundance of Katherines", wherein the protagonist goes through a string of failed relationships with multiple women named Katherine
The joke is that trans women frequently zone in on a few names, and one of the most common is Katherine

homies i cant believe like 40% of the US economy and 30% of the Canadian federal budget is riding on this tech

we are so cooked. the west has fallen.

but! it doesn't have to be so. the working class can unite and rise up together to make a world where we are respected and not plotted against.

I'm trying to cultivate the basic notion that I should never again put up with being regarded as other than someone befitting respect and forward consideration. It is a very anathema concept. And I don't know how hard it will be to bear out the long dark

fanart of Melinoe from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (dark jeans, orange top), she has a big tattoo on her right arm, and is about to tie her hair with a hair band (is this how it's called in english ?)
her eyes are closed, she has nice arm muscles and looks extremely lesbian

fanart of Nemesis from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (red jeans, black crop top with the Hades sigil as a pattern on it), moon shaped necklace, tattoos on her left arm and pecs, as she's about to tie her hair using a green hairband, her eyes closed
(green light on her right side cause she's standing next to Melinoe's glowing arm, off camera)

fanart of Eris, from Hades 2, she's sitting, right leg with her knee bent, in front of her
right hand on her right foot, left hand on her face, framing her left eye between two fingers
she's wearing big sneakers, micro shorts, some sort of sweater with stripes showing her shoulders
she has apple tree branch tattoos on her thigh and left shoulder

fanart of Medea from Hades 2, but wearing modern clothes (tiny leather shorts with double belt, red/purple leather crop top), a nose ring, necklaces, also big tattoo covering the entire left arm (a snake, a moon crescent, flowers and leaves)
She's sitting, resting on her left hand, her right hand next to her face, conjuring some plague magic that bathes her in green light

Do you want an orchi, and are you worried that you'll never be able to get one, either because of cost, or lack of access in your country?

Well earlier this year, some friends and I went to Thailand to get an orchi for as cheap as possible, and one of us wrote a guide on the process!

Discworld QOTD, from Snuff

Aristocrats don't notice philosophical conundra. They just ignore them. Philosophy includes contemplating the possibility that you might be wrong, sir, and a real aristocrat knows that he is always right. It's not vanity, you understand, it's built-in absolute certainty. They may sometimes be as mad as a hatful of spoons, but they are always definitely and certainly mad.

Come tear apart this hollow thing.
This glass object could never sing.
There's not a set of cryptic chords
that can unwrite these harsh records.
Come break down, and lay me bare,
let's see if I've got feelings there.
Embed yourself inside of me,
since you failed to silence me.

There is a sob hidden in cruelty, a hurt of wanting, a want from hurting, and a tendency to love too hard, and scar

How far down the slow sinking forgetting have you fallen my one time beloved?
Will I one day forget the face I knew you by?
As months of mourn turn to years of wondering what it is, tickling at the corner of my eye, and never there when I turn
I do not hear your song anymore
