But by the time of Last Ditch's monthly community meeting on September 11, only one of the original founders, Matellian, is still involved. The two others stepped back from the daily operation months before, Matellian says, citing various pressures and health issues. One had enrolled in clown school.

it's not my favorite but absolutely nailing the "tore through a major city's queer dating scene over the course of 8 months and left an absolute crater in their wake, countless friendships destroyed and lives upended, hasn't been heard from since but there are rumors they're in corsica" look
emma d'arcy in a very loose oversized black three-piece suit over a dusty rose collared shirt open down to the closed vest. the pants ave wide and break very low over polished black shoes, and the jacket hits nearly at the knee, with oversized lapels that flare a few inches lower than normal. they're wearing multiple necklaces and rings, and what appears to be a silver fish brooch on one lapel, with wet look hair with single strands dangling down to their eyebrows

This recursion never ends once you eliminate birthright citizenship. My parents' parents may or may not have been naturalized after they came from Germany. What, then, is my parents' status, who were born in the US? And mine?

These people had protected status. They lived here legally. They worked, they paid taxes. They made lives. Raised families. Now we’ve dehumanized them. Ripped away that protection and told them to get out. This is a stain on the soul of this Nation.

A news article with the headline "James Bond writer tempted to set next 007 movie in surprise location"Deep Space Nine, you know, from Star Trek. It looks like a caltrop with lights on the side. If it were the size of a Lego, it would be excruciating to step on.

I don't even know what to say. This is real, this is true, so, like, thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. This took over 25 years to happen so if there's any lesson here it's either "keep at it, who knows" or "many people are divorced"
