I am a trans woman, out for about 15 years. I enjoy astronomy, fossil hunting, photography, miniature painting, video and tabletop gaming, and raising caterpillars. I love horror / found footage movies, and I am an avid reader.

For International Women Day, I propose we share Female Space Marines! #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

My weekend in the Zone

Maybe you don't care what happens to us. Maybe you don't like us. But trans people are among the canaries in the coal mine right now. Ignore what is happening to us at your peril.

Might save a life.

It's not exactly what I envisioned, but I think I like it. I wanted there to be flame / lava under my Junith. I used green stuff's splash gel for the effect. It's actually kind of hard to get a good picture of because it's so bright. It almost literally glows.

The Guardian is reporting that Trump is openly violating a court order, and has transferred multiple transgender women to men's facilities. We know in Florida, transgender women are having their hair shorn, feminine items confiscated, and pulled off medication. This is inhumane and illegal.

What is the rule of the true scientist? Stalker 2 screenshots.

Another Texas bill that has no chance of passing, but its wild what the fringe is putting out there. Literally makes it "fraud" to be trans.

Still thinking about this quote from a writer at NYT who said she "can't quite say [Trump's attacks on trans people are] exactly consequential, since so few lives are materially affected." There are an estimated 1.3 million trans adults in the U.S. That's equal to the population of Dallas, TX.

A tragedy most horrible, or a joy most profound. Stalker 2 screenshots.

I started playing Stalker 2 on November 20th, 2024. I finished today. 3+ months and 205.7 hours. Around 300 deaths. 9,678 screenshots, of which 93 were of the black and white portraits found in various game locations. 34 artifacts and 3 altered objects collected. Truly a masterpiece. Thank you GSC.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

This is the most appalling and embarrassing thing I've ever seen in my life. How is this even possible?

McCarthyism is alive and well, apparently.

SCOOP: The Bureau of Prisons rescinded rules shielding trans women from being searched by male guards, The Intercept has learned.

Celestine and the girls were my first Warhammer models. Still among my favorites.

My esteem for Pedro Pascal grows ever greater.

Cartoons voiced by real animals (Episode 2): Fox

A beautifully broken world. Stalker 2 screenshots.

Ok, so I'm obviously not the first person to discover this, but, like, my enthusiasm is verging on stroke level. I wanted to do this water effect a year ago when I built this model, but I just found the stuff to do it. It took like 30 minutes and looks awesome! Yay! I'm doing fire next.

I see a lot of trans folks scared that we're going to be exterminated right now. And you're right that they're going to try. So I want to say this: they tried before, from 1981-1989. And for most of you, every moment of queer joy you've ever had came in the shadow of that last effort to kill us.

I'm almost morbidly curious why the change won out over sensationalizing a trans death, I guess because it acknowledges existence. ironically affirming

It's not a great photo. My light box is just too small for the wings for one thing. Whatever. I finished the termagants / ripper swarm finally. It's my first painting project of the year and also the first I've finished since Stalker 2 came out. My hive tyrant is no longer lonely.

Fantastic unofficial trailer for Stalker 2
