Social dance is great and more of you should do it. Wheeeee skirt goes spinny!!
@hairypenguin.bsky.social I have run into some very funny bugs in Axom Conquest but the run I just abandoned at wave 48 was probably the funniest. "You have found all the upgrades" indeed! Also it glitched out and my Drill disappeared so I couldn't lose. But I couldn't Ion Cannon, so.
> And I too shall fulfill my three duties... blood, fire, and bread. Sweeter than honey are these three, so powerful, and one is not allowed to add to their number, or to inquire about them: “Whereby do women earn merit?” ~R. Kalonymus, 1322 Happy #Pride & #TransMarch, and Shabbat Shalom!
It has gotten me *so* much mileage. Check out the full review, it's a work of art!
I have been v. good and I have posted mostly things about how life is great, so I just wanna say that writing is fucking hard, Frozen Dreams is marginally on track for a June serialization, Q&S B2 is in the editor's hands, & you should buy my gay civics portal fantasy novel. mybook.to/QuillAndStill
asdgfhjkl; okay this delights me. this is what I was looking for though.
Happy #TDOV #TransDayOfVisibility from this she/her normie PTA Dad. There's a lot I could say; most of I said perfectly fine in a speech a couple weeks ago at my town's TDOV proclamation. youtu.be/ceI-2c41gmM?... Here's to rainbow dresses & big pockets, my wife and friends, and most importantly:
Here's a picture of just the sign! Quote text in the alt-text.
Made some new friends already, got a cute picture, lots of support, people making inroads in the case of water bottles I brought, feels good to lib out.
Yeah! Like @sunspot.gay's "Sunspot", or HY's katalepsis.net , or @magicariot.com's "Magica Riot". Or Quill & Still, a cozy queer slice-of-life portal fantasy about a middle aged Jewish (OTD) burned-out chemist & a kinder world. If "they do civics on purpose" appeals: www.amazon.com/Quill-Still-...
Normal Rockwell meme, the site would be better if the refs banned everyone who used the term "bitch" in this way.

San Francisco has some gorgeous places. 🤩 Also there are redwoods here and I know they are redwoods because they are ludicrously tall. God I love redwoods.
*eyeroll* nah this is fine, everything is fine, blaming the blatant antisemitism of antizionist circles on The Jews is totally reasonable. clearly it's on us for forcing y'all to throw down with the slurs and defend those doing the same. antizionists are just uwu smol beans quoting David Duke. /s
I'm heading to contra dance tonight with my wife. We're both wearing spinny skirts that have already gotten us compliments from the Children's Discovery Museum docents. They are, yep, another couple of y'all's. 💖💜
this is ridiculous, obviously the correct definitions are these.
My hair is purple, your objections are invalid and I am brimful of joy.

Shammai was right on the law, but Hillel was right on the aesthetics. The light of the miracle *grows*.
Another night, another light. Taking a moment to tell stories about driving back the darkness.
Chag sameach from the suburbs where we thrive and where our lights and flag speak our truths. May the day come that doing so no longer qualifies as an act of defiance.
like, there's so many people like this asshole. I have blocked *so many of them* but the flood never ends, I think maybe most of them are bots but that might just be cope because I don't like believing that these people are real.
apparently transgirl praxis is knowing Robert's Rules of Order (from serving on a city commission) so now the PTA is drafting me to be parliamentarian? I guess my whole thing of "Sparkling Normie She/Her Dad" really is working.
One week. Cast your goddamn vote y'all. Up with Prop 50 in CA! Put Democrats in office if that's relevant to you in various other places! It's the simplest and easiest thing you can do. Oppose the Republican Party—that's the single moral imperative of elections right now.
