I don't observe Christmas, but if I did, my one wish would be for the entire University of Oklahoma administration to be disinvited from their family holiday dinners.

This girl is actually going OUT tonight! Winter Solstice, it's fitting to go see a classic film set in some deep cold territory.

I thought this was satire. It's not satire, it's actually what you get at the DOJ website for some of the files released.

I am often shocked but rarely surprised. Tonight I am simply at an entire loss. My disappointment with the world has hit rock bottom and is actively digging.
The Epstein Files, everybody!

At the Costco, the checker at the door stops me, "Miss, miss, hold on a moment... this says you've been a member for 18 years, and there's no way you're old enough to have been with us that long..."

I don't care if he was serious or not, my smile could NOT be contained. Thank you, stranger. <3

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Find a young trans person and ask them to *please* find a way to survive, to weather, to stay with us.

The ones like us who come later, after you, are going to need you so much.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

I swear to all seven fucks, DO NOT claim that TERF game on Epic. Do not demonstrate that there's demand for it, do not contribute to the promo fees that Epic will pay her, just don't get the stink of it on you.

We're not asking for the moon, here.

This past weekend, I was honoured to host a special presentation by the amazing @daniellerosen.com about finding a transgender allegory in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA!

Presented LIVE, so there's some interruptions and silliness, but absolutely worth checking out:

The "Francis Scott Key Key" scene is still one of my favourites in all of television.

The first CPU I ever bought for myself was the AMD K6 at 233MHz.

I used to use "the Monroe Doctrine" as a joke, making references to pieces of history that weren't directly related to current events. Add it to the list of things that are suddenly contemporary issues, along with Smoot/Hawley, Teapot Dome, and the 3rd Amendment.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Over here, 'twas the S2 finale of HAZBIN HOTEL. I might live or die, but it will be a HELL of an adventure!

Deeply appreciate everyone who gave me a few minutes to speak from the heart last night, about TDoV. I'll probably save a copy of that segment somewhere to preserve it, though I may decide not to stick it on SocMed because it feels weird to "use it as promo".

I'm really grateful that I'm trans, if only because it taught me that nearly every aspect of who I am can be changed.

People mostly talk about the physical aspects of transition, but I feel like I'm constantly remaking myself—my personality or otherwise—into the type of person I want to be.

The Epstein release is playing out like a bad first draft for WAG THE DOG, where the President is basically Starscream.

I have survived every challenge in my life so far, but if the leaf blower right outside my window doesn't stop soon, this is going to be what breaks me as a person.

How has this been going on for 84 minutes
HOW MANY LEAVES ARE THERE
MAYBE GET A RAKE AT THIS POINT
