Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

This overcast, gloomy 4th of July really suits my mood, given the sheer, hateful stupidity of the MAGA Trumpers. Sigh. I’m so tired of being angry and scared, for my family and all the people in the U.S. Sorry this doesn’t really add anything to the discourse… Just here, queer and venting.

On my way home with a PC on the bus… cheaper than a Zip Car/taxi! This will bring the total number of working computers in our apartment to 5… 2 of which came home within 3 days of each other. 🤓

Happy sweet 16 to our littlest miss, Belle! She’s our wee-angel-baby-princess, and we love her chirps and purrs so much! 🥰😻

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching. Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

Boo used to be able to curl up in the fruit bowl, now he barely fits standing up. Silly boy! (We had to stop keeping fruit in it, of course!)

Sorry to leave my few BlueSky peeps hanging - my shoulder is doing much better, and I only need PT. Phew! Thankful for no need for surgery. My teeth are also doing better - the splint is off, and now we wait to see how they do. Trauma in teeth can take awhile to show up… eep.

Good morning, BlueSky! It’s my birthday today. My wife is taking me to my favorite nursery and art store, so I likely won’t be on much until tomorrow. I love our community here, thank you for giving me a loving and supportive place to share my art. You’re the best 💛

Apparently it’s #macromonday. How serendipitous that a friend just taught me a great technique for that on the ol’ iPhone!

Watercolor painting of a purple octopus with soft brown accents happily and lazily floating through the gentle current of the ocean. Three of her tentacles are curled up like she’s showing off her muscles.

To the right of the painting is a black watercolor brush resting on a piece of white coral.

Starting my first full week at my new/old branch, and I’m loving it. My commute was 11 minutes on my electric bike under full cruise power (tested for science!) The building is all new and fancy, which is a little odd after so many years at the old building, but I can’t complain about the amenities!

If you enjoy nerding out about music and have a soft spot for Sesame Street… I’ve sung this to myself ever since my Sesame Street watching days! Now I know why it’s such a bop! 😅 youtu.be/TMtGImlEmu0?...

You wouldn't let this happen to your phone. Don't let this happen to you either. Self care is a priority, not a luxury.

I’m definitely enjoying BlueSky, but much like when I used Twitter, I mainly use it to follow peeps I like (lots of authors and such) and not as often to post myself… I hate to say it, but… is there a viable alternative to the book of face? It’s much more what I’m used to, alas…

Boo seems to have a favorite back foot to cuddle with, and it’s just so darned cute! 🥰
