Photo is me, mid-1970s, when I was adorable & and the world seemed to be headed in a better direction. I loved that hat. Quite content to be no one much, online and off.

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

saw this on Instagram and it so perfectly encapsulated my rage

being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years

what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past 'dresses are for women and pants are for men. i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we've made

Great thread. I had maybe a dozen or so (out) trans students over my long career in this very red state (and probably more who had not yet transitioned) and though I’ve lost touch with most of them, I worry about them ALL the time.

Every now and then I’m struck anew by the magic of seeing little scratch marks on paper (or modern tech stimulations thereof) and not just understanding new ideas,new stories, and new uses of language, but being seriously moved by them. Whether fleeting or (less often) enduring effects, truly magic.

One of the great errors in fiction from past decades is that we always portrayed tech bro CEOs as geniuses when the truth is, most are dipshit bigots who got lucky or bankrolled by daddy. On their own merit, they fail every time.

Kind of feel like we especially don’t need fancy law explainers at the moment. “Can the president just take money when he wants?” A third grader could answer this. A Yale law prof is likelier to write the wrong answer so their 2L can work for Alito

As I get older I’m coming to increasingly radical views like “Mom was right about a LOT of things” and “no one is perfect, most people basically mean well but don’t know some of the things I know, but some people are VILE and should be shunned.”

Super tempted to get four kittens and speak to each in a different language. Both as an experiment (like would they all learn the word for “dinnertime” in all of the languages, or only in their own?) — and as a way to keep my languages other than than English in practice.

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes
