Iowa legislators introduced a bill that would remove gender identity from the state's civil rights code, instate a bathroom ban, end gender marker changes, and would redefine "man" and "woman" to erase trans people. Just sent 67 or so emails to republican legislators about how fucked this is.

I updated my transition journal since I fell out of it since the election 🙃

Doing great 👍

I know that poetry publishing is competitive and it's super hard to get poems published, but it is still discouraging to get rejection after rejection. I think it's been 3-4 years since I've had an acceptance. #poetry #publishing #creativewriting

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

A bit of short-form creative nonfiction I wrote while procrastinating last night. Never really done this before, so it was a good exercise; and motivation to keep my head up in these hard times. #creativewriting #shortstory medium.com/@CC_Mayrose/...

So do I, but you do not see me falling in line.

I think I have a good idea for a poetry collection that I'm excited to work on. This is the first draft of one I've write for it and I want to share it here as a teaser :P. Here is hoping I can find the motivation to keep up with it!

Finally found the motivation to write a new poem and submit a few to a handful of publications. Two years of rejections and mental health issues as of late have sapped my inspiration and kind of left me disillusioned. Fingers crossed, but even if I get more rejections, I want to keep writing things.

chappell talking about trans rights at the #grammys 🫂🏳️‍⚧️

i want gayer games with gayer graphics made by the gayest people and i'm not joking

URGENT PSA TO ALL #TRANS and #LGBTQ people. PLEASE REPOST FOR EVERYONE. Ty @yukkoex.bsky.social for sharing this.

@erininthemorning.com and anyone else who can help spread the word: if you live in Iowa, or know people who do, One Iowa just puts out this action alert. It describes Governor Reynold's intent to strip gender identity and trans people from the state's civil rights. Second screenshot has contact info

CW: Transphobic Politics Haven't seen articles talking about it, given how many EOs were signed: the anti-trans executive order dropped. No gender marker changes, exclusion from spaces in federally owned facilities that align with gender identity, end of legal recognition of trans people 🧵

Alright, tomorrow begins the "American Erasure of Human Dignity and Rights Speedrun any%." let's go!!! 🙃

If Trump brings back TikTok, we need to never let people forget he got this ball rolling in the first place with executive order during his first term. Also, the way TikTok is treating him as their benevolent savior puts me off from wanting to ever use it again. The boot licking is unreal.

RIP David Lynch. A true visionary and firm ally. You'll be missed.

Him's eepy

It's a few days late, but I really wanted the games of 2024 to sit with me before I confirm that SIGNALIS is game of the year again. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them.
