I just noticed that my estrogen patches want me to store them above a temperature my house does not get above for a full half of the year (68° F, sixty-eight, the 6 isn’t a typo). Just pretending winter doesn’t exist.

No, I have no idea what "UNSUMMON" means. But yes, I assume those cables in the water are actually the tentacles of an extra-dimensional monstrosity.

This entire website is really down right now. I would tell you all to go outside but there’s a cold windy and rain storm where I am right now. It melted all the snow. So I’m just listening to the rain and the raging brook before winter comes back. And watching those last oak leaves still hanging on.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

Not reading this ableist shit but as someone who has “jetway jesused,” did you know Covid is causing a dramatic increase in POTS, a condition that can make it impossible to stand in one place without fainting, but may otherwise allow you to walk just fine?

The best part about living along a flood prone brook is sometimes you get to go to meetings introducing a study of the brook using cutting edge lidar and then look at overhead photo maps of the brook with your neighbors including the geology profession who has been studying the brook for decades.

I have no idea how many trans kids most US adults know, either personally or kids of old friends. I live a queer, Vermont bubble and have a teenager so I know a bunch, but I definitely have some college friends with trans kids too.
What’s typical? A dozen, just three?

It’s above freezing for the first time in, not sure, but weeks. This long a stretch of sub freezing temps in December (maybe back to November) is just not normal for Vermont.

the lie that hurts the most people in this movie is the myth that the Christian church in America is under persecution and needs to fight back. the parishioners tell themselves that story over and over so often that it ceases to matter whether or not it’s true. it’s the Gospel of Monsignor Wicks
