the key to overcoming imposter syndrome lies not in understanding that you're better than this but in accepting that everyone else is worse than this

Our trans kin aren't going anywhere. There will always be more; you cannot harass a facet of humanity out of existence. So if we could be kinder to the ones who are here now, I would really appreciate it.

Be nice to my friends. And to the ones who aren't my friends. Please.

That's a column. Columbus is the name of the large friendly vehicle in the movie Totoro.
That's Columba.

Columbus is a narrow vertical structure supporting floors or the roof of a building
That's Coulomb.

Columbus is the genus that includes doves and pigeons.

Bureaucracy and bouillon. I blame the French.
Hello, I'm a professional author and I can never spell permanently or camouflage on the first try.

Come, make me feel better and share your nemesis words.

Today I walked past two separate houses that had already put up their Halloween decorations. It is barely September! What are you doing.

"There's a famous story-"

"Nine billion names of god. Yes, the fundamental premise is true. Once we find the name of God and enough of us speak it with gratitude, all will be bliss."

"With gratitude? So computers won't solve it?"

"No. But we have a promising scheme."

"What?"

"Medication names."

Long ago my son had a hamster who was stockpiling potatoes in his cage.

They were coming from the kitchen, but that meant
Getting out of the cage
Off the chest
Out of the bedroom
Down the stairs
Through the dining room to the kitchen
Into the veg bin
& all the way back
With A Potato
PAST OUR CATS

just been camping for the first time in my life and i have some valuable camping advice: take everything with you. Everything in your house. Take your whole house with you and live in it. Live inside your house, at home. Stay at home, living in your house with everything in your house.

I was walking today and saw a window cat. I started meowing at the window cat.

All of a sudden, the owner came to the window.

She started meowing back at me. Now two humans are meowing at each other while the cat is sitting there like "wtf is wrong with you two."

Yeah, to be clear, I don't care. (A) All feelings about gender are "political feelings" in our current environment. (B) You should have the freedom to do what you want with your body no matter what! I don't get to decide whether you got an abortion, a transition, or a tattoo for The Right Reasons.
