-1 doc said the words "That's really weird. Maybe we should do an MRI."

Love an earnest self-appreciation post! Ya'll have done some really fun stuff. Your albums were the first (but deffo not the last) physical music media I'd bought since like.. pre-iPod days.

NEWS: It was never about the children.

Transgender adults now face care restrictions after the ruling of the federal appeals court in Richmond, Virginia.

4th Circuit Rules That States Can Compel Trans Adults To "Appreciate Their Sex" Via Care Bans They ruled that states "encouraging citizens to appreciate their sex" through care bans is a constitutional goal, affirming West Virginia's Medicaid ban for trans adults.

An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.

It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

women were invented by women to shred on the guitar together

This is ultimately about creating the conditions where it is impossible for trans youth to exist, a world that discards them and isolates them from any sort of social support. In short, they want trans kids to kill themselves.

Watched the first episode and something about it made me feel insane. I have no idea if I'll come back to it (I probably will).

Is it having a moment or something? I've been thinking about giving it watch for the past few weeks and have no idea where the impulse came from.

this is literally going to strongarm every queer user into giving info after they declared every single lgbtq+ server to be "adult servers" years ago.

fuck you discord.

Oof. I'm getting called out left and right these days.

Update! OP happened to find it sitting at the apartment's Valentines Day craft table and moved it back to the mailroom for me. It's now safely at home :D

wait. i legit think that's mine. it said delivered but I couldn't find it :(

I'm so sorry. I just lost one of my girls a few weeks ago. Be kind to yourself 💜

I preordered it on the publisher site -- forgot -- preordered it at my bookstore. Started it, and then two weeks later got another copy. Felt like an idiot 🙃

Stopped myself refreshing my LinkedIn feed for the third time after having used up my bsky. Surest sign my shits all fucked.

Nice! Weirdly i also tackled a bunch of laundry and folding this weekend despite being in a "Sure wish I simply wasn't" headspace. Barely even 1 clothes pile left.

And thanks for the book rec. I just placed a hold on Herculine. :)

I wish it were easier.. And there's things I get devastatingly sad about sometimes. But the prospect of inviting a cosmic change like that feels like saying goodbye to this person while a whole new one takes my place. Someone not me. It feels like I'm grieving two lives sometimes.
