Yuuuuup. Also, I don't give a shit if some of the worst people in the world think I am being performative or am virtue signaling. Fuck 'em. They don't get to tell me how to be. Anyway, trans rights are human rights, y'all. It's not complicated.

I think @keithedwards.bsky.social nails it here, with the next step being Republicans like MTG and Burchett rallying around Trump for "exposing the Democrats."
Here’s how it’s about to go down:

Ghislaine names a bunch of Democrats, maybe tosses in a few billionaires.

She says Trump did nothing wrong.

MAGA praises her for “taking down the pedophiles.”

Trump pardons her… for “telling the truth.”

since it's the last day of pride month I figured I'd at least make one thing for it... i now unveil to you my greatest invention: color bars pride flag
An LGBTQ+ pride flag formatted in the layout of the SMPTE "color bars" test pattern used for broadcast television. The first set of columns use the colors of the gay pride flag, with the addition of the original SMPTE color on the final column. The second set of columns contains two pride flags - the pansexual flag horizontally, and the asexual flag flipped and horizontal. The final set of columns contains the three colors of the transgender flag and the two POC-inclusive colors, followed by the original bar gradient from the SMPTE ECR-1-1978 pattern.

Two on my three guitars are on the wall, the third requires a magic trick... First prototype works with caveats, already have a bunch of improvements in mind that'll do the trick.
Two electric guitars hanging against a purple wall. One a six string with black and silver scratchplate featuring a robot. The other is a short scale bass guitar. A heavily modified Yamaha Pacific and Ibanez Mikro Bass for those in the know. A headless Steinberger six string electric guitar being held up using the same wall hanger as the other two. The other two are held up by their head stocks, this guitar doesn't have one however so needs a little help from a hidden mechanism, yet to be revealed

I've been doing Hacky Racers since the first event in 2018 and I haven't taken part in a single race. By chance I ended up as race control and compere, it's knackering at times but brilliant fun. I've been told the "racing" part is pretty good too! 🤣

Today I'm finding out which people believe that if you're part of a population that is a small overall percentage of humans on the planet, it's okay to strip you of rights. I wonder if they have considered how easy it would be to classify *them* into a small overall percentage, and do it to them.

Pilots are afraid to talk about mental health issues and therefore go untreated, when they do seek help they're treated like crap. In Xyla's case there's sexist undertones for sure, the FAA's rep was asking wholly inappropriate questions.

Saved from the "to be scrapped" pile at Reading Hackspace years ago, no idea what it does but looked too cool to not save. Apparently an Ultrasonoscope mk12, I can't find details online. Worst case it'll be the perfect enclosure for a mad project at some point. If anyone has info, please share!
