There’s this little dreamy, strange, dark, funny movie by Alice Lowe called TIMESTALKER streaming in US now, god I loved it. If you like Barry Lyndon, Time Bandits, Orlando & Kate Bush music videos you might too. Yet again she’s bitterly funny as a woman driven mad by constraints & her own desires.

Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.

New Yorkers flooded the Stonewall Monument to protest the erasure of Trans people. We will not allow this regime to erase OUR communities and OUR history. “The rage and resolve here should be bottled and administered directly into our veins.” @raushenbush.bsky.social #resist

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

As the transgender community continues to fight for civil rights in the U.S., one of the most common arguments against progress is that transgender people are a recent phenomenon. But it’s a fight that’s been happening here for decades and around the world for centuries. ⤵️

2 weeks since I nuked Facebook, one week since I started my new anxiety meds. I wouldn't say my brain is better, but all things considered I guess that "maintaining" is a decent metric of success.

I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe. She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today. RIP Elisa.

I realized that I haven't really shared any of my a illustration or design work here yet, so here's a poster piece I designed last year for a #risoprint project. #Baphomet is canonically non-binary trans, and Eliphas Levi was a socialist. So there.

Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines. Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk, and stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy. The stakes couldn't be higher and no one is coming to fix this- not our politicians and not our media. It's up to collective effort.

We're funded (YAY!) but I'm looking to see if we can raise a bit more for the campaign, especially since it looks like we're going to need at least one more drum session. If we hit $3K I will send every contributor a copy of The Perfect Sentence on vinyl. www.indiegogo.com/projects/the...
