Cassim, from Aladdin 3 king of thieves, he has silver at the temples and a handsome goatee
as a kid I thought, wow Aladdin’s dad is hot even (i’ve always loved a silver fox apparently) seeing his character design now it has occurred to me I have more grey hair than this guy
I know that no-one really seems to care what is being done to me and other trans folk in the last year. It’s treated as something that we just have to struggle with.
“That sucks, I‘m sorry… anyway”
very Keep Calm and Carry On.
A lot of fellow Brits are saying “no” in the replies as quotes. Which is true. But “no” doesn’t mean that people will actively do anything about it.
I’ve never knowingly met an *actively* transphobic person here. But I also know that I experience transphobia all the time.
An embroidery hoop containing a sewn aerial view landscape. It depicts an apple orchard in bloom in the centre, allotments to the left and sheep in their field at the bottom. Train tracks go past the top of the orchard and allotment.
Sewn train tracks past an apple orchard (to the left).

An angled view of embroidered bushes and paths going through them leading to an orchard, allotment and fields.
'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!
Rereading Dark Science since my printed copy just arrived.
I was thinking why did Kim’s friend tell her to move to the capital city where she technically doesn’t even qualify as a person because she is too cyborg.
Remembers my friends and family keep asking me when I am returning to the UK… ah.

god that’s a fucking mood, I wish I could get a party or at least a “congratulations, good job” when I beat back my depression

yeah, I think I lost a lot during the surgery
my ears filled with white noise and I tried to get the nurse button before I went unconscious but failed and woke up back in bed. I felt so bad scaring my mother-in-law
My strongest memory of that time is on the third day post surgery, I had finally managed to move to a chair. My mother in law came to visit but didn’t know I was trans or what surgery I had.
We were talking and as I was sat there I slowly passed out my vision went magenta and

use Signal for your day to day stuff. Make your grocery list in it. Text your partne. Have a group chat about organising a surprise party.
Privacy should be an expectation in life.
Even for things which don’t need secrecy. When everyone normalises maintaining privacy it can’t be used against us.
In light of the devastating guilty verdicts in the federal trial, in which the prosecution honed in on use of Signal as evidence of criminal conspiracy, we need to garner more public support for Janette and others in this case—Dario Sanchez is on trial for merely removing a person from Signal chats!
I didn’t have “Iran scores first kills in the Butlerian Jihad” on my bingo card but someone had to do it I guess.
A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)
More context on this #Artemis II image:
* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right
* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

dear lazyweb: a couple of years ago I ran into a really fantastic html/css very-beginner tutorial that I thought was amazing. It really went step by step and it was done by this guy who I think had accessibility needs and thus taught that part too?
Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
I’ll continue, it’s still interesting, the first 3 arcs have established a pattern and I want to see how it breaks the pattern and whether it does it in an interesting way. Or whether it’s just different flavours of the same thing throughout.
I really want it to subvert itself.
Finally getting around to reading Warhound, more porn than I expected. I can see why it launched a genre and lots of girls love it. But also as I’m reading it i’m like “yeah… I am no where near subby enough for this to be fun to read”
Happy TDoV, have a pic of Girlmode Ranma hatching from an egg that predates the literal Trans flag
