Special to see the First Amendment exercised robustly in a place like Boston: anti-Trump Administration, anti-Venezuela war, anti-ICE demonstration in front of the Massachusetts State House.

The thing I like most about Johnny Silverhand as a depiction of a revolutionary is that he is very unpleasant and sucks to be around. why won’t Cyberpunk 2077 let me fuck him.

Cis writers’ trans characters: “This is Lyrica Womanheart, her power is she has no definable personality beyond serving as a gravitational center for word boxes that vaguely gesture at discrimination and she SUPER strong.”
Trans writers’: “This is Debby and she’s a bitch. I’m gonna torture her.”

Dead heat tie between Armored Core and Slay the Princess. Always a Zelda girly but I was not ready for how those first two would rewire my brain chemistry.
Quote this with your favourite game from 2023 NOW, and what your favourite was THEN (if you had one)
Localisations/early access/expansions count, remasters/ports don't. Remakes depend.
Two-way ties count.

And they’ll say they can’t be held accountable because when they pulled the trigger they were afraid for their lives. Their lives which they spent serving an ideology of fear, a machine of fear, a holistic regime of fear. A culture-spanning engine of the ugliest and most dishonest fears there are.
Any one of us could be shot or kidnapped because an ICE agent doesn’t like the look of us. Are you prepared to be murdered in cold blood while “news” sources repeat the claim you were “weaponizing your vehicle” trying to leave your driveway? They want you to accept that. They want to make it normal

! Trans creators and activists are being targeted by the FBI. One, Tara, was told she was “propagating radical gender ideology” and “domestic terrorism.”
Rose’s analysis: the feds are targeting politically engaged trans people to find something “illegal” to “make an example out of us.”

Twin Peaks — twice!

Twin Peaks — twice!
It's so good how everything people think they know about Moby Dick from culture is like 60 pages of the novel and the rest is about shit like cuddling in a bed with your harpooner boyfriend, squeezing sperm with the fellas, watching 5-6 of your crewmates all stand on the deck making soliloquies
people think moby dick is a stern adventure novel heavy on the plot. i can't emphasize how much it's not. it's supergay chaos with 3 plot points. there's an entire chapter that's just a chowder recipe. sometimes it turns into a play. the main character is covered in whale dinension tattoos.
finally reading moby dick. why didn't anyone tell me that it's good

Protip: for any cis people who don’t already know, the phrase “this person” is an extremely obvious way transhobes often degender and/or misgender trans people.
you should generally not use that phrasing. especially if you are criticizing someone who happens to be trans.

Gotta be real a queer read of char adds so much to UC. Repressing identity and chronic avoidance of the things that terrify you will eventually fuck up your life -- including your ambitions for spacenoid independence AND your chances with the autistic boy you've obsessed over for more than a decade

Thinking about this again and how it applies to *every* transition milestone I've ever hit. I've done more things I'm terrified of in the last couple years than the rest of my life put together and even with ceaseless existential world dread I'm still the happiest I've ever been for it
transition has been an exercise in learning that the more scared i am of doing something the more important it usually is for me to do it

let’s also not forget that a trans woman with a popular account on here just deactivated after posting pics of herself in her new years finery and having some fucking creep use grok to remove her clothes and send the images back to her. this is straight up evil technology.
Grok is not a source! Grok is not sentient! Grok is a machine woven into the fabric of a social network that made CSAM on-demand!
Grok says safeguard lapses led to images of 'minors in minimal clothing' on X reut.rs/498SoUk

One week post ffs and feel a bit more myself. I've had incredible support and this has brought me and my mom even closer together. She's gotten much more reflexive about emphasizing I'm her daughter and I've been crying every day seeing how excited she is for me. I was too cynical to ever expect it.

Last night before surgery. A daunting thing I'm privileged to do - that might not even be available anymore to people like me next year. Something I still couldn't have had without help. I only made it this far because so many people love me. So I will try to be brave and hopeful instead of scared
