Adonis, the orange snd white cat, looks very disappointed in you

For reasons that make sense to her but not to me, GF uses Threads. But Meta's transphobia is really out of pocket.

Meta removing my girlfriend's post quoting a song lyric that says, "What God doesn't give you, you have to go out and get yourself," then commenting that it's particularly true for trans people. They claim that this can be construed as sexual solicitation!

Cis people with money, how do you choose to respond to this exchange with @juneeee.bsky.social about the GFM I set up for her? - Speculate about who I'm subtweeting? - Or give her some money? www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with... Whichever you choose, hope you sleep well at night.

Kass: The posting on Bluesky is doing nothing. Trans people like it and repost it but don't have any money to give. Cis people see it and do nothing.
June: I know. Cis people very much don’t understand. Thank you though.
Kass: One person, who is a writer who has been an online acquaintance for 20 years, specifically said she would repost MA requests from trans women, and then never reposted mine because of some grudge she has against me. Fine, you don't like me, but don't take that out on my girlfriend and her kids!
June: We are prone to pettiness and infighting.
Kass: Same person has a whole Discord server full of trans women fans who thirst after her novels full of lesbian violence. But I am not part of her online harem. I would have called her out, but she's a notoriously vicious poster. She's cis, not trans.

This post got me wondering how well this book holds up.

My appeal of Bluesky labeling 19th century art as "sexually suggestive." "Congratulations on being more prudish than Queen Victoria."

First puberty is as hard on trans women's bodies as having 5 kids is for cis women... but some of us still look good in a bikini.

Things have finally calmed down enough that I feel comfortable sharing some good news. Despite what Publisher's Marketplace says here, @jeannethornton.bsky.social and I are actually aiming to get this out by May 2027.
