It's really hard being so far away when there's a disaster in Panama. Please pray for those impacted by the earthquakes and donate if you can (Panamanian Red Cross: cruzroja.org.pa and GoFundMe for the affected region directly connected to a municipal government: www.gofundme.com/f/pedasi-ear...)

The thing about James Talarico saying what he said about trans people is that not only is it just transphobic, I genuinely don't know what the point was from a campaign perspective

Looking at my Facebook and seeing all my fellow Southern gays just devastated, and it hits me that the reason a lot of us feel so strongly about Dolly is that she was perhaps one of the first (if not only) people we saw in media growing up loving gay people openly.

Mid Century Modern tableware and where I think it would stand on trans issues, a thread

A Mid Century Modern ad for tableware, quirky hanging laps, weird wood paneled kitchen bar, oh yeah it's MCM as hell up in here (kinda love it)

Houston, you need to pay attention right now. You need to get yourself to the City Council meeting this Tuesday and tell the mayor exactly what you think of this and what you want him to do. It is your job to speak up. 🧵

according to the new york discourse, I'm pretty sure I'm from nowhere. officially not allowed to call myself "from" any place or identify with any place I have lived, must instead make it clear that I have no association to any place

Today was my sister's last day at the job where we work together because she's leaving for a really great opportunity. We have worked together for the better part of 6 years—which is wild and also amazing that I've gotten to work my silly little tech job with someone I love for so long

Mostly off bluesky for Lent, but would encourage people to read this. It's about my alma mater, Texas A&M, and I share so many of Gwen's complicated feelings around it as someone who also had a fairly positive experience there as a queer/trans person

tbh not doing well today but the words of one of my favorite hymns came to me and now this verse along with the refrain is kinda echoing in my head. This is what I pray for and like the refrain implicitly says—what we must create ⚓

For everyone born, a place at the table,
to live without fear, and simply to be,
to work, to speak out, to witness and worship,
for everyone born, the right to be free,
and God will delight when we are creators
of justice and joy, compassion and peace:
yes, God will delight when we are creators
of justice, justice and joy!

I lived until I was five years old in a village in the western part of Panama not accessible by car (you had to go by canoe on the river to get there). It's one of two places in the world that in my bones feels like home (the other is Houston, TX)

two moods (that are one mood)

two post it notes arranged like comic panels. the first says 'GOD what a weird time to come out as trans' with a drawing of the author taking a photo of his top surgery. the second says 'I'M SO GLAD I CAME OUT AS TRANS' with the author against a backdrop of flames.

what's wild to me about the supposed rapture date stuff is that in the evangelical world I was raised in, it was sacrilegious to predict the date of the rapture "no one knows the day or the hour", etc. etc.

I want to be crystal clear: My religion requires access to gender-affirming care and, indeed, *obliges me* to seek and defend that access for others. Any laws that obstruct this are infringing on my religious freedom. As a Christian. ⚓

Having a poor sense of interoception is super fun (/s) because it’s like, “hmmm… something feels vaguely off? Maybe? Am I hungry? Or do I need to go to the bathroom? Am I tired? Who’s to say really?”
