Know that I'm finally figuring out my new normal since my health scare in the Spring, I want to get back to some kind of organizing. It's hard to do when I live in the middle of nowhere Ohio and can't drive, but I'm hoping I can start attending my village's council meeting and see what happens.

The Facebook algorithm change last week might make me finally delete the damn thing. No, I don't not want to see thirty posts about the drama in the Ohio Democratic Party deciding to throw me and my people under the bus again. You know, cause it worked so well last time.

i know we've been conditioned this way... but y'all we do not need to be so hellbent on misunderstanding each other. nuance exists, people should be allowed the room to correct and fully explain themselves. or *gasp* change an opinion once new information is provided.

As I was standing by this gas pump filling up my truck with six dollar gas I couldn’t help but think that this was a small price to pay so that every child wanting to play sports in elementary school has to submit to mandatory genital inspections
My jeep with a gas pump in her fuel filler $94.59 at 5.999/gal

I've watched this happens for a lot of trans folks I know. People who were heavily involved in their community fleeing as soon as they can. Friends whose home was shot up for being Trans finding themselves briefly homeless after fleeing.

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

We had some kittens and a mama cat living under our house. We tried to do spay/neuter and release because there are so many strays here. We thought lots of humane socieites in the area would offer it, but we called them AFTER catching the cats and they were all booked for months.

I'm one week from work starting back up and I still don't know how I'm getting to/from there. Not being able to drive in a rural area is a pain I the ass.

The right wing attack ads on Acton in Ohio are so unbelievably bad. One of their claims is literally just "Amy Acton was caught drinking alcohol while on prescription drugs." . . . And???? I'm literally on prescription drugs and drink alcohol.

There is a really sad pattern I need to address in the trans community: Do not CHOOSE sacrificing yourself. I am not talking about those we lose to ideation. Don't buy a gun if you can't guarantee it won't become a threat on your life. There are other roles to play. But there's another concern.

The main difference between the average middle and lower class person in the U.S. is the number of emergencies you can take before you're houseless. We're much more alike than different.

I was trying to catch some feral cats living under my house to get them fixed and released. Accidentally caught another cutie in the area who clearly used to live in a house. He came inside and immediately made himself at home. He slept on top of me his first night here and I'm obsessed now!!!

I'm thinking I need to do some more writing about disability in the future. I've gotten more disabled in the last few months and can't drive right now. I had no appreciation for how much that disables me in Bumfuck Ohio.

I hate how few living wage jobs in rural areas are not in some way connected to the military-industrial complex and/or oil companies. Even as a teacher I have to pretend it's cool when kids sign up to join the military or work for an oil company. It's gross.

Nothing will give you climate anxiety quite like realizing the "fog" is smoke from fires burning 100s of miles away.

if Adrian had been able to raise $2000 he’d have a place to stay for a whole month. it’s hard to plan for the future in these conditions, and Adrian needs the bare minimum of stability to do it. homeless people are the most vulnerable to extreme weather like heatwaves, being inside is LIFESAVING!

My grandma always had this delicious peanut butter that never stuck to your mouth. I always thought she made her own peanut butter. TIL it was just one part peanut butter one part marshmallow fluff. No wonder it tasted so good.

Seeing lots of white cis/het folks in my area getting very scared of flock cameras and AI. And they should be! I see them often talk about the fear of a police state and I just think its interesting that they're afraid of the reality marginalized folks have been living in the whole time.

if you got taken in by Platner: 1) center the experiences of those he hurt 2) admit you were wrong 3) spend the next few days figuring out how to not get taken in by a guy doing *exactly* the same thing next time, because there will be guys doing *exactly* the same thing for the rest of your life

Watching dems circle the wagon on Platner is so disappointing. You can't keep marketing yourself as the lesser of two evils and keep backing people like Platner.

Being chronically ill is such a strangely isolating experience. I have some genuinely caring people in my life, but they will never be able to understand what living in my body is like unless they become disabled in a similar way too.

Many disabled people over the years have been like “no matter how difficult it is, full acceptance of never getting ‘better’ is essential to your wellbeing” And for years I was like “no no can’t do that too difficult too painful.” And then I gave it a try for real and yeah, they’re right.
