being a writer feels slightly insane right now. "oh time to hallucinate a bit and write it down in a document in case we're still publishing books about chaotic bisexuals in 2026" 🤣 just told the group chat that this job requires the relentless belief that anything will matter in 12-18 months.

Incredible news! More hospitals have returned to offering gender affirming care after Trump's executive order was blocked. Moments after publishing our story on hospitals returning, Childrens National DC announced a return to care. And JUST now, Colorado Children's is back to giving care! AMAZING

Coincidentally read this part of Terry Pratchett's "Guards! Guards!" over lunch. (My first Pratchett book.) Here, the soon-to-be-former heads of the city are realizing there's a new monster in charge, each wishing one of the others would stand in protest. I heard Pratchett was incisive, but dang. 👀

We report at the edge of the morning: we went quite a few days without rain, which is odd for this time and place. Last night, though it was all heard but none of it was seen, it rained almost sunset to sunrise. It shows in the colours, the smells, and the rivers in the gutters.

Not true. I'll give you some examples of when styles crossed over from womenswear to menswear, and how men have worn straight-up womenswear or just feminine styles in cool ways. 🧵

I am so, so tired. And I know you are, too. Here's “Death blowing bubbles,” 18th century. The bubbles symbolize life's fragility. This plaster work appears on the ceiling of Holy Grave Chapel in Michaelsberg Abbey, Bamberg, Germany. After the monastery’s dissolution, it became a hospital.

we are depriving generations of kids of the formative experience of stumbling upon some weird horny sci-fi or fantasy book that was absolutely not written for them, which is the kind of thing that makes reading feel exhilarating, like you are unlocking the grownup world’s fun secrets

My friend @jaymichaelson.bsky.social shared some key info on the Zuckerbook. Important. Quoting him. Follow him. Don’t give up. We fight. 1/x 🧵 “Hello! I'm posting in response to the many sincerely anguished claims that not enough is being done to stop Trump. This is not reflected in the facts.
