it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit

nostalgia is remembering when you didn’t have to pay bills and attributing that feeling to mario

Good things are still possible, never give up

Last repost seems really unfair considering how much of my own stupid I already have to contend with. 😐

Stupidity is approaching on all fronts like an extreme weather system and your job is to survive longer than the stupid

A photo of a cat laying on a brick patio (which is covered in rainbow sidewalk chalk). She is staring off into the distance, facing the right of the frame. What is she thinking about? Is she appreciating the weather, the beauty of nature, or her free-roaming lifestyle?

Same as the last picture, but now the cat's head is turned to look at the camera. I do not know how to describe the expression on her face. I've never seen a cat make this face before. Her eyes are slightly squinted, but unevenly so. Her mouth is slightly open, but it almost looks curled in bemusement at one corner. (The lower lip on that side is also glistening with drool.) The overall effect is Head Empty, No Thoughts, or if a cat could say "whuh?"

Chubbs the cat, who wanders my mom's neighborhood.

No. I refuse.

Montana Supreme Court Rules Its Constitution Entirely Protects Trans Citizens In Landmark Ruling The ruling will have enormous impacts for transgender residents in the state.

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people.

The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work.

Hey fyi way too many, even leftists who should know better, effusively praising the papacy is making it way, way more difficult to organize against this.

This trans healthcare ban is literally going to cost trans people's lives but yeah, woke pope made a statement or whatever.

Congratulations, your initial post achieved something rare and seldom-seen: making me react to a video game opinion on the internet.

…I will fight you 🙂‍↕️

"[[BLORNSWORTH slumps exhausted against a chair while CRANDIBLE lounges with his feet up.]] BLORNSWORTH: Whoooffff. I just ate an entire jumbo bag of chips and I do NOT feel good about it CRANDIBLE: Let me know if THIS makes you feel any better... CRANDIBLE: Imagine all the loose chips from that jumbo bag. CRANDIBLE: Now imagine them all mashed up into a SOLID LUMP of salt and carbs. CRANDIBLE: How BIG would that lump be? ALL the chips in one giant mass? CRANDIBLE: That's INSIDE you now. That's in your GUTS. That's what YOU put in there. BLORNSWORTH (despairingly): That does NOT, in fact, make me feel better. CRANDIBLE: I didn't think it would! {{header: that dense, thick WONDERMARK.COM}}"

As a wise person once said, all eaten potatoes become mashed potatoes

We didn't deserve this day.

All of us are dissociated and dissociating to make it through today. I hope you give yourself and others grace.

Oof, sorry to hear that, that's f'n ridiculous. I'm awaiting my own redetermination at the moment. I guess I won't be surprised if I get the same… 😑 Really hope there's some option for redress open to you.

I misread this as "screaming" instead of "streaming" and didn't clock my mistake until the final sentence. Just nodding along like, mhmm, yep…

Study finds that people who use GenAI chatbots rely on them 80% of the time, and develop almost no capacity to recognize when a chatbot is feeding them faulty information.

My mental state these days

[photo of daniel radcliffe] "Transgender women are women. Any statement to the contrary erases the identity and dignity of transgender people & goes against all advice given by professional health care associations who have far more expertise on this subject matter than either [JK Rowling) or I" ~Daniel Radcliffe [photo of emma watson] "Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned or told they aren't who they say they are." ~Emma Watson [photo of rupert grint] "I firmly stand with the trans community. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. We should all be entitled to live with love and without judgment." ~Rupert Grint

'but harry potter was such a huge part of my childhood'

reminder: the only reason jk rowling is doing a harry potter tv remake is bcos she wants a version she can flog that doesn't involve the original cast.

Holy shit we might have a cure for sickle cell anemia

Sending e-hugs…

He looks like if The Matrix was about being cis.

Hey. Hey.

What's the difference between Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter?

One of the authors is entirely consumed by rot, and the other has been dead since 1973.

I’m going to be honest with you, sometimes I don’t know what to do when I am not inside my own home. If I’m somewhere else, man, well there is a chance I might be Fucking Weird. forgive me

A photo of a very large soft pretzel—a real girthy mofo. Somewhat ugly in aesthetics, but beautiful in a rugged baked-goods way.

Bar I used to go to (sadly long since closed) made one that was like a foot wide. I still think of it often with yearning…

A top-down shot of the remains of the house. Pretty much the only identifiable parts left are the standing frame of the garage doors and the windows above them, which fell backwards into what is now just a black silhouette of a home.

It's a miracle no one was killed nor seriously injured! Still, this poor family lost EVERYTHING.

A cordoned-off street in a neighborhood, the road is all dug up where they're checking the gas lines. In one corner lot, there is only a charred crater where a house should be.

Like, without fully doxxing myself, the house I grew up in is visible in this screenshot! Not even 500 feet away.

A house in my old neighborhood exploded last weekend. ~50 families were evacuated while they dig & search for the gas leak. (As of yesterday, it still hadn't been found.)

It feels so unreal. I saw that house nearly every day for like 20 years. My first friend in kindergarten lived two houses down.
