Your periodic reminder that the decision to pursue a professional ballet career happens at similar or earlier age to most youth gender affirming care and has significantly more lifetime impact on peer socialization, how the body looks and overall health than social transition and puberty blockers.

Folks, when you/your fam start Medicare (age 65) DO NOT CHOOSE MEDICARE ADVANTAGE. IF YOU CHOOSE IT YOU ARE LOCKED IN ***FOREVER***! MA health plans block your regular Medicare. They get even richer. They siphon up the profit; taking your Medicare 7 giving you less. You die even sooner; and sicker.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

Deeply conflicted about an entire book/movie built around “sperm whale swallows diver.” Entirely unconflicted about needing to eat popcorn out of a sperm whale bucket. Apparently scientific reservations are no match for butter delivery systems.

Maybe if the US started executing people with body tolls in the millions, then it could attempt to justify having a death penalty. Bear in mind, Elon's estimated to have ensured the deaths of 16 million people by 2030, a Leopold in the Congo amount of horrific mass death.

Vampire manicure. Decals were nice in theory but low contrast and also went on with some air bubbles. And of course I broke the nails on my left thumb and right middle finger just as I was pulling out my manicure supplies yesterday.💅

Left hand showing four fingernails in blood red with black smudging at the tips. Ring finger has a decal that looks sort of gothic and architectural but, being black, isn't showing up especially well against the red-black ombre.

To speed up mass deportations, the Trump administration didn't just launch raids—it stripped $200M+ from nonprofit legal aid groups, bringing them to the brink of collapse. Here’s how immigrant legal defense barely survived the campaign to kneecap them:

First Trump came for immigrants. Then he came for their lawyers.

Here it comes... the large coronal hole is almost directly facing Earth now, which means fast solar wind is 3-4 days away. In fact, NOAA SWPC has just issued a G1/minor storm watch for Oct 2. This means there are chances for mid-latitude auroral displays Thu and Fri nights. #heliophysics

Let's take a minute to 'think about them beans'. Toe beans, that is. Why do some animals have little pink nubs on their feet, while others... don't? Let's start by looking at the-things-between-the-beans minus the fur. Time to look at a Sphynx cat's foot, up close. CW: cannot be UNSEEN.😬

A familiar story for anyone who follows @volts.wtf. “The Chronicle spoke to more than half a dozen grid experts…to try to understand why Texas’s notoriously unreliable grid had a remarkably reliable summer. The answer was unanimous: solar panels and batteries.”

houstonchronicle.com

Texas shattered energy demand records this summer. Here's why the grid held up.

Texas repeatedly broke electricity demand records this summer, but ERCOT avoided emergencies as booming solar and battery capacity helped keep the grid stable.

This is your periodic reminder that the 25th amendment isn't a quick-and-dirty removal mechanism for "the president is out of his mind." Maybe we should have something like that (other than impeachment) but that's not what the 25th does. It basically only works while a president is in a coma.

I'm really glad that Code Switch included this part of my interview, because I think these are the points that so often get lost in the discussion of trans panic and why the WNBA might be an ideal target for those anti-trans groups to latch onto. www.npr.org/2026/09/15/n...

We're talking about actual bigotry and the belief that this group of people shouldn't have, like, the same human rights as another group. It legitimizes them. And so the WNBA is a big platform for them to be able to do that. But I think what's actually really insidious about being the target is that transphobia is rooted in white supremacist ideas of who is allowed to be a woman and what a woman should look like. Those beliefs have, you know, negatively impacted Black and brown and non-Western women throughout history.

So what you have is a league in the WNBA that is full of Black women, 7-foot-tall women, masculine women, women who don't fit kind of the traditional markers of conventional white Western ideas of womanhood. And so I don't think it's surprising that transphobic ideas around the acceptable kind of woman are coming and impacting this league.

And I think the last piece that I will say is, I think, in some ways, the lack of visibility that the league had for a lot of years really protected it. Like, it wasn't as successful as it should have been because of racism and homophobia and misogyny. And once it becomes successful, the flip side of that is it really does become a different kind of victim of those ideas. And the fact that you have a league that is all women, predominantly Black women, largely queer women who have been successful and they don't need men to do it, and their product is not necessarily for men. I think that's a threat to the status quo. And so it's not just about protecting women's sports. It's actually about dismantling them from the inside.

Trans people are a slightly LARGER percent of the US population in 2026 than Jewish people were in Germany in 1933. Assholes who say trans folk aren’t worth defending because of population size are telling us exactly who they would have been in Nazi Germany.
