My new toy arrived this morning. I’m in love! 😍 #AstonMartinVantage

I bought a new (to me) car yesterday. It’ll arrive in about a week. I’m so excited! The past year has been really dark, and I needed something to look forward to and enjoy. Of course, I will have the car wrapped to match my Ruby Stone Porsche 911 and motorcycle.

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

Last week, Musk hosted Alice Weidel, leader of AFD, a far-right German party, for a conversation on X. Weidel said Hitler “wasn’t a conservative, he wasn’t a libertarian, he was a communist, socialist guy, and we are the opposite”. Who in their right mind would think Hitler was a communist???

Carlos Hernandez Ecchevaria of Spanish fact checker Maldita with extremely important stat: “we know exactly how many times Meta had to reverse a moderation decision to decrease the visibility of a post because of a complaint by the user. Bullying? 92%. Violent content? 88%. Fact-checking? 3%.”

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

I posted my first driving spatial video for Apple Vision Pro on SpaceTube. Standard and 360deg videos are posted to YouTube.com/@tiamartyns

The trial wasn’t exactly successful. The 1st day, the pain & shaking were much better than normal. But from day 2 day on, it didn’t help at all. Turns out, the leads dropped a full rib and a half and moved to the left side. We have to *guess* if the permanently surgery would help.

Why am I not surprised that Trump is skipping ethics pledges and FBI background checks on appointments? apple.news/A9cKJjRWlRUK...

Transgender sports bans were never about sports. www.erininthemorning.com/p/opinion-th...

Can we please stop referring to the other place as “X” and keep saying “Twitter” instead? Let’s see how Musk feels about people not respecting name changes (re: trans people). The assface still won’t use his own daughter’s correct name and pronouns. She can’t stand him.

Do yourself a favor and read this from Fox News contributor Ben Domenech. I’d like to report a murder

After suffering from a medical condition for 5+ years, I had a trial surgery today that might provide some relief. It’s taken that long to find a doctor who actually *cares*, & 2+ years to get insurance approval. We NEED universal health care. $170k out-of-pocket so far, with “good” insurance.
