Today was so busy with the fight against capitalism and fascism and xenophobia and transphobia, I almost missed that it was the start of Lesbian Visibility week!

Time to be *extra* visible.

Okay, it is getting genuinely entertaining how many airport staff know me in spite of the place being so enormous and far away.

girlfriend creates a Mii of me and it is immediately paralysed by intrusive thoughts of Italian food or trying to woo girls and enbies by playing guitar. 😂

they're never going to find the body of my coworker who scheduled a high context meeting at 9:30 am the day after I was out on vacation for over a week.

The train conductor: "*Please* do not play full games of Magic The Gathering in the café car, those tables are reserved for dining."

Okay, there's gonna be a good story about the last route he was on. 😂

having every single one of the people who I love and talk to every day all under one roof is just the best and most rare feeling. 💕

I hate that I'm having to say this in 2026 after having lived and fought through the 90s in the LGBTQ community, but if you start spouting off neo-puritanical Sex Negative or Body Negative stuff, it's a pretty much instant un-follow, un-friend from me.

Working on a personal project and actually writing code for the first time in years! And for something really clever and meaningful.

I'll say it over and over: the people who inspire us are the most wonderful in the world. 💜

"Les cochons, ils ne peuvent pas connaître l'amour."

I am having this premonition that there's going to be a surge of amazing people discovering Strudel / uzu in about 24 hours and we're all going to be richer for it.

holy fluff!

For some reason the most visceral human experience I've had is flying due west at dusk and it lasting for hours on end. It really puts our relationship with time and space into perspective and reminds me how small we are but how powerful our tools are. 🌆

Someone shouting "full send!" as a part of the official Artemis mission count down will live forever in my heart. That's the voice of an engineer in their happy place. 🌘

It has been an interesting change the last decade as TDOV has largely shifted focus from remembrance to celebration, from individual bravery to community strength. All I hope is that we remember the best purpose of all Pride: to give hope to those who are not yet out.

would you ever consider opening an overflow instance for people who just want to see and listen but who can't safely give their government ID to a central verification service?

I won't even stay up past bedtime for international festival headliners any more, but for sets by @driima.com and @ladybugvr.bsky.social ? I'll stay up until dawn.

"girl, I wanna finish my masters degree, go to the gym and get my ass real big, and dance every weekend, I ain't got time for no boyfriend."

You know, Minnesota girl, I think you might be onto something.

come move in with us, we only need player 4!

I'm going to hyperventilate if one more person tells me that airport security doesn't grope trans people any more. Seventeen times in the last year including today says otherwise.

Most Seattle Thing of the Week: our airport commissioner personally jumping on reddit to ask the community to help local TSA agents pay for gas so they can tell ICE they don't need their help.

wits and sass.
tits and ass.
drums and bass.

fed and fed. 🤤

whoah, that's wild, I went to a rave there back in 2009!

Skipping Sultan + Shepard live? Easy call when two of the loves of my life are playing the same night instead. Being able to say that is something I never even dreamt of.

After much careful consideration, I have decided that I have one primary life / career goal at the moment: the ability to afford a massage from my favourite MT every week.

The skies finally cleared.
The sun came out.
After a few hours the breeze picked up.
A cloud of pollen blew off of the tree outside my window.
The cloud was thick as fog.
Sniffle season has begun.
Yours in misery,
June

unfathomably based out of context quote of the week.

the horrifying realization that by many folks' definition, I haven't had a proper "vacation" since 2019. or 2016. I should do that this year.
