Hey all, welcome to my new online presence. Won’t have much here for now but I suspect I’m not much longer for the X-verse so figured I’d set up shop here.

Let Musk know next time he wants to buy an election, just send the money to me. I guarantee it’ll be just as effective.

Funny (but unsurprising) how they went from “Liberals are the real racists, because conservatives don’t see race.” to “Everything that isn’t a straight white cis man will be purged from public view!”

Reminder to all celebrating Musk’s “cost cutting.”
There will be wrongful termination lawsuits. They will be won. Musk is not going to pay them. Your tax dollars are.

Do you think celebrities ever worry that they’re going to die on the same day as a more famous celebrity?

Boy howdy, do I, a trans woman, have some thoughts about how the gender revolution put a lot more emphasis on letting girls do boy stuff, and almost none on letting boys do girl stuff, which if anything reinforced the idea that girl stuff is inferior if not shameful.
I think it's one of the strongest examples of how our gender revolution to this point has been incomplete, mostly a half-effort of increasing tolerance for women doing "masculine" tasks without actually degendering most tasks, while it remains taboo for men to indulge anything seen as feminine.

I would have more sympathy for Democrats who say they’re helpless to stop Trump, if I didn’t suspect they want him to set things on fire for the next two years to make the midterms easier for them.

It really seems like it’s easier to get friends together in groups of 20 than to hang out with 1 or 2 people. Frustrating for an introvert. 😓

I wish Bluesky had a feature that let us nickname accounts we follow. Because if your account doesn’t list your real name or show your face, I guarantee I don’t know who you are.

Has anyone checked what treaties/agreements specifically name the “Gulf of Mexico” to see what Trump might be claiming are invalid now?

For anyone who thought the Return of the King movie dragged at the ending?
I’m listening to the audiobook of it right now. I’m up to the coronation of Aragorn, and there’s still 4 hours to go.
I’m just saying, it’s accurate.

There’s a song I recently discovered. It’s about eating disorders and body image. But the a lot of the lyrics resonate so strongly with me as a trans anthem that I’m crying listening to it.

It’s easy for me to say this as I’m not in (this particular) danger from the Administration, but I wonder if immigrants could throw a spanner in the works through malicious compliance.
