Kitty. She and I were the same age when she made her debut. We had a lot of the same feelings about not fitting in. Granted my journey of self-discovery was a *bit* different.

A half lesbian pride flag/half trans pride flag

it’s lesbian visibility week!

and trans lesbians are lesbians too

(we’re also v good at kissing just thought you should know)

My wife and I haven't spent more than a weekend apart since the pandemic started. When you both love and *like* your partners you WANT them around.

I think I need to make an excursion to the see the current weirdness that is the Lloyd Center this week before capitalism demolishes it in August.

A pink background decorated with rainbows and dashed lines in the colors of the lesbian pride flag. The text reads, “Lesbian Visibility Week Bundle; 94 sapphic & lesbian books for $40 USD; 4/20 - 4/26; exclusively on Itch.io”

Hey friends! Tomorrow there's a big Lesbian Visibility Week bundle kicking off on Itch, and Magica Riot and Magica Riot: Full Bloom are part of the party! There are 94 works by incredible creators in here, and you can get 'em all for $40! itch.io/b/3635/lesbi...

Now have canon birthdays for everybody and guess what…today is the birthday of Magica Riot's beloved bass player and magical girl ray of sunshine, Hana Hasegawa!

Here are some Hana pieces by @ambisweetiepie.bsky.social, @windygria.art, and @mametchi.bsky.social!

Random trivia, Jade is 19 days older than I am :)

Socialized male, my ass.

Please don't tell me again how woke and great the Chicago pope is.

There are reasons I have expressly requested to never be taken to a Catholic hospital for any reason whatsoever. This piece touches on some of them.

f you see this quote with a pic of you in glasses

4. The people running it are actively hostile towards trans women

I see Bsky's vibe coding is at "work" again

Redemption isn't on the harmed party. No one is obligated to forgive. If someone truly wants to do better, then it shouldn't depend on that.

Buy Books - Magica Riot - The Official Site Novels about Portland's hard-rocking queer magical girls, Magica Riot.

So hey I just had to pay a bunch of self-employed indie author taxes and uhhhh if you're looking to buy some widely-enjoyed books about super gay magical girls having adventures in Portland, and suggest to your friends to do the same, it would help me out a bunch 😅😅😅😅😅 magicariot.com/buy

Digital artwork of Claire Ryland, aka Riot Purple, from the Magica Riot novel series by Kara Buchanan. She is holding her transformation item, a microphone replete with magica crystals and a big pink bow, and hovers in space while ribbons in the colors of the trans flag entwine around her. The pinks and blues come together to make a beautiful purple.

The @magicariot.com books continue to inspire me. Here's Riot Purple, Claire, in her magical girl transformation! This was so much fun to render, especially the glowy effects 🥰

My girl!!! Such lovely work!

They did a crap job then because I've never heard of this band before in my life.

Granted straight white boy bands are kryptonite to me. Avoid at all costs.

It does not feel like a victory for the T in the LGBTQ+ community as the flag being flown is the old rainbow pride flag which notably leaves out the trans pride colors AND does not address the separate trans flag that was flying at the monument.

Which

It's STONEWALL. The trans part is IMPORTANT.

Trans art deserves to be as big and popular and beloved as any other

I truly need to expand my library.

Sure would be nice for fascism to fall out of popularity right around now.

After having a video call for the first time with my girlfriend, I am definitely not immune to an English accent.

I was swooning.

A professor who doesn't care about reality. Do you let students turn in plagiarized work too?

And likely using the same garbage taoe mechanism as any other portable cassette player from the last twenty years because there's literally only one supplier.

Happy birthday, gorgeous!
