“Rowling has made it abundantly clear that she thinks attacking transgender people via the legal system is a worthwhile cause and a good use of her vast personal fortune…there’s no way to watch this show without supporting Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting…”

Planning a trip to Disneyworld? Go to Disneyland in California, Tokyo Disneyland, or Disneyland Paris! Don’t give Florida your money!

Beautiful! Hot tip: if you want us to see your eyes as you take a mirror selfie, look into the mirror reflection of your phone/camera lens as you take the pic, not into the phone screen. We will see your eyes!

Elon Musk inherited a lot of money from his rich daddy, and he is currently driving his businesses into the ground with his ineptitude. Donald Trump inherited a lot of money from his rich daddy and drove his businesses into the ground with is ineptitude. America, stop thinking rich men are smart.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Also, while legacy media might die, good news sources are thriving in the form of nonprofit news orgs. Check these out at the Institute for Nonprofit News: inn.org

Legacy media may be dying, but not due to political climate. Over 40 years, news ownership has consolidated into the hands of a few. To find who owns news sources, go to Newsjunkie.net (disclosure: I work for them. We are a startup & still expanding our database, but our info is accurate).

Cont… 13. Technicality: During Defying Gravity, Elphaba walks through a window smashed long before she arrived. 14. Emerald palace tower - Elphaba smashes window to begin her escape flight. Note: At no time does Elphaba smash through a glass ceiling. Can we look forward to that in Part II???

Learning curve: attempted to bake a Trader Joe’s banana loaf cake in my air fryer (with no instructions for air frying on the box). For a disaster, it’s delicious! (Note to self: Next time, add pecans, fill the cake pan only HALF full, and fill silicone muffin molds with the remaining batter!)

My apartment is too small for a tree. And I don’t put up ornaments every year. This year I felt the need for my version of some festive holiday decorations. A few of these ornaments are not in great shape, but are irreplaceable.
Xmas ornament: Deagon pulling sword from a crystalXmas ornament: Pig wearing Santa hat rests above a sign reading “Be MerryXmas ornament: young, naked man holding high up a tree-topper starXmas ornament: middle-aged naked male angel with goatee and furry belly

I don't think the actor Earl Holliman, who just died at 96, officially came out, so I was touched to see his passing confirmed by his husband. His first screen role was in 1952; he came up when, for an actor, coming out was not difficult but impossible. He lived through things we'll never know. RIP.

Sign at Branch House Riverfront cafe, ReddinG: “BEYOND THIS POINT Shoes, shirts & bottoms required.” This seems awfully specific. What happened here that they had to require people to wear bottom clothing?

As a gay senior citizen, I find the best way to assuage fears of- and work up the courage to stand up and fight- the coming political hellscape, is working on a detailed craft project. Only 82 cross stitch lines to go.
