Today's OFMD earworm: The cadence of the line reading by Con O'Neill (Izzy Hands), "Is it just you then--in your party?" I keep muttering it to myself. 🏴‍☠️

Your Honor, I love them 🥹

There are a lot of bad things happening all at once, and it’s overwhelming to think about how to meet moments like this. Jean says to focus on 1 or 2 things that you care about, understand fairly well, and are either local or involve a topic where you’re likely to have influence and find community

if you are a cis person it costs you nothing to just say today that you see & hear your trans sisters & brothers & others over in the UK today -- and around the world, too, knowing that rulings like today's ripple out in ugly ways.

"You've heard of me?"

ㅤ Over The Waves — Setsuko Matsushima, quilt ㅤ

Was hand sewing and watching Our Flag Means Death. Wow, what a great show!

Made my calls this morning to my rep and senators. How about you?

"We're here on Earth to fart around."

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

I invite everyone on this website, especially people with more than 400k followers on their accounts, to use alt text, especially on their text-heavy images. It's good for you, it's good for your readers, it's the right thing to do. Be a mensch. Just fucking use alt text. Do it. do it do it do it

Historical costuming and cosplay for Our Flag Means Death

Update: before giving me a measles vax, my doc has ordered a blood titre to see if I still have immunity. Will update.

I mean, same

as trans day of visibility fades into night, it's time to build support for a new holiday: trans week of unfettered access to long-range rocket artillery

Dinner is butternut squash risotto with a squash that has been around, dude, on the counter, for a while, and pantry arborio rice that is easily 5 years old, maybe 10. I count this as a win.

My spouse just ruined* my pink pirate shirt in the laundry and it's hitting me hard because sewing is keeping me sane. *I'll see if I can re-dye it, but I dyed the original linen before I made the shirt, so it won't dye evenly. Now it's a weird blue overdye, so who knows what color it will end up.

happy trans day of visibility 🤍

Lolololol

ELECTION DAY IS TUESDAY!!!!! And it’s not just for those three races in WI and FL There are actually 11 states with elections AK, CA, CO, FL, IL, MS NE, OK, SC, WI and TN I made a guide, but it’s not complete so check your county election board website and @bluevoterguide.bsky.social 1/2

Just got my measles vaccine! I got my first before 1968, so it turns out I needed a new one. The measles outbreak is ongoing, be careful out there!

Shiver me timbers! 🏴‍☠️ We are blown away by the amount of support Our Flag Means Death fans have shown for CSE. $105,000 has been raised so far to support our work with trans youth. Read more here 🔽

Excellent

For the Gen Xers: I asked my doc about measles vax because I was born in the late 60s and saw reports about the vax back then possibly not continuing to provide immunity now. She wrote me an order or a new measles vax, easy peasy.
