Hey New Yorkers. Like many I have been freaking out about the new Medicaid work requirements, expecting to lose coverage. However, I have discovered the situation is not as dire as it seemed. **You only need to have work/volunteering on the record the month before renewal, not every month.**

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

Professor X asks a girl, "what is your mutant power?"

Girl replies: "I can guess how many pulls to turn a ceiling fan off on the first try!"

She points up and says: "3 pulls"

Professor X stands up and pulls 3 times. After the third pull the fan turns off.

Professor X: "Yeah thats cool and all, but not really a super power..."

Girl: "Yeah I was jut kidding, I can heal paraplegics"

Professor X, still standing: "Oh my god"

I will never understand why some on "the left" are so desperate to credit a plan written by Democratic supermajorities in Massachusetts and passed over multiple Romney vetoes to the guy who happened to be in office when they did that. And often, somehow, a Republican think tank as well.

The majority of "gender surgeries" for minors--I put quotes because this is a category that includes everything from the cosmetic to the actively life-saving--are performed on cis kids. A cis boy with breast growth can almost certainly get reduction; a trans boy in the same position likely can't.

Much of the talk was about how constitutional meaning has always been contested, and as I was digging up examples, I was delighted to come across a resolution adopted by Maine's state legislature, going off after Dred Scott enjoy! blackfreedom.proquest.com/wp-content/u...
Screenshotted text from the resolution, reading:

Resolved, That the extra-judicial opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Dred Scott is not binding in law or conscience upon the government or citizens of the United States, and
that it is of an import so alarming and dangerous, as to demand the
instant and emphatic reprobation of the country.

Resolved, That the Supreme Court of the United States should, by peaceful and constitutional measures, be so reconstituted as to relieve it from the domination of a sectional faction, and make it a tribunal whose decisions shall be in harmony with the Constitution of the
United States and the spirit of our institutions, and at whose hands all classes of persons in the United States, without regard to race or locality, shall receive even and exact justice.

I'm starting a business!

This is all very new and scary... but to raise funds I am selling Amy and Kitt merch on Bluesky.

These are hand made in my cottagey studio (my bedroom), with love and care and a little bit of haphazard clumsiness (shh).

If this kicks off, orders fund more designs, that's kinda how it works. Everything is made to order, using a super local little printworks in my home town.

But most importantly you're helping an independent trans-led business start from the ground up :)

DM me for more info, pricing, logistics, etc.

Will be easier to ship stuff to the UK. Some countries have strict regs on what can be sent there, so upcycling may not be possible. Postage may end up prohibitively expensive too.

I am crying. This is the funniest thing I've ever read
New York sculptor spent $100,000 to make a Charlie Kirk statue no one wants to buyA New York sculptor has been left furious after spending $100,000 of his own money to build a lifesize statue of Charlie Kirk, only to find that no one wants to buy it.

Sergio Furnari, originally from Italy, had hoped the statue of the deceased far-right activist, which he intends to display in Times Square, would raise “millions” of dollars. Instead, he said he has been inundated by messages from people saying they intend to urinate on the sculpture.

To add injury to insult, Furnari recently broke his foot working on the statue, after tripping over a roll of tape in his studio.

“Is it cursed? Maybe. I don’t know,” he told the Guardian.
