Ryan's Odyssey is the first book that I actually published. The reason I did so is that I would like to inspire at least one person to experience a beautiful moment, in the hope that they might inspire the same in someone else. As a maharishi said, more people need to meditate more to create change

So excited! Ford has pissed my 16 year old nephew off so much (the election called early means he can’t vote, if in 2026 he’d be 18) that he’s sitting here amped up to door knock for @chandrapasma.bsky.social

More women have been attacked by other women in restrooms for being suspected of being trans in 2024 than women have ever been attacked in a restroom by a trans woman in all of recorded history.
In 2024 more women were attacked by another woman in a public restroom than by a trans woman.
In fact I don't think any were attacked by a trans woman.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.
You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

Let's talk about some guidelines for continued use of our social media systems. This one appears better than the others, but the same forces are coming for all of them. A quick thread. 🧵🧵🧵

People will be like "Oh! These trans people want outrageous things!" and the "outrageous things" are literally just
• legal protections against discrimination in employment, housing, healthcare, public accommodations, etc
• the ability to update identity documents to accurately reflect name/gender

I’ve known I was gay since I knew what it meant. I’m tired. Tired of the rights of myself and my LGBTQ + family being up for debate in every election since I started paying attention to politics. Tired of people I know voting against my rights and expecting ME to be the bigger person.

MAGA is going to chase you over here. They'll chase you where ever you go on social media. They can't survive without making you miserable. Why do you think Truth social failed? They need conflict. Don't give it to them and don't engage. Bluesky has amazing block functions. Block them into the void.
The slow trickle of MAGA folks over here underscores how much their experience of online is entirely dependent on people getting mad at them. It also underscores how even they, given the option, would rather not hang out with themselves either.

For the newbies, one of the great features on here is that when someone has tried to quote-post dunk on you, hit the … and select “detach quote” and nobody will see the post or who wrote it and they will look like an asshole. (Blocking works like this too.)

Worth sharing again - engaging with the worst people exposes all of your followers to them. This *helps* the worst people. So don't.
I feel like I need to tap the sign cause I keep seeing people trying to "dunk" on hateful peeps on my feed.
This ISN'T TWITTER.
Please don't make it into it.

I just want to point out that Colorado went above and beyond to pass laws protecting trans kids this year and the result was them holding the House supermajority and keeping the Senate majority while losing zero seats (flipping one, and losing the one that was the guy who changed parties)
the thing about people saying dems need to throw trans people under the bus is that they already did that when they refused to even offer a counter argument to the decade long dehumanization campaign waged by the right

The worst of it is that certain people will celebrate, not mourn.
The sheer cruelty is unbelievable.

The stories I'm hearing are horrific. I've had to talk some people down. Providers are being inundated with attempts by trans youth. The trans community is in a state of absolute crisis right now.

Yeah I've seen a lot of "but fair use!" defense on this site about this, and A) this, and B) he referred to "easily finding these books on the internet." You think he means he bought 25,000 books on Kindle, or
‘…Fair Use does not, by any stretch of the imagination, allow you to use an author’s entire copywritten work without permission as a part of a data training program that feeds into your own “AI algorithm.”’ Glad to see authors fighting back the philistine parasites likely pulling from pirated works.
