After a busy month and juggling a few things, I finally finished this book and wow! It is a book that dares to be read. @emoria.bsky.social invites us to where it's dark, scary, and vulgar, only to find life-affirming truth and beauty that speaks to a trans experience anyone should empathize with.

The film is written, directed, and co-stars Hitoshi Ozawa, a legendary Yakuza actor who is a villain in Yakuza 0, who got his fellow legends involved. This was his passion project inspired by one of his best friends, a trans woman, and he worked with the community for representative casting.

I was on a panel with immigrant women yesterday and one of them explained how it felt to first be elected and be celebrated for your identity, and then for the institutions to turn on you when you actually bring your perspective and ask for change. She described it as going from “pet to threat.” 😮‍💨

Busy day today. Had to go out of the house to get my birth certificate, check my phone plan, and buy some luggage. And I didn’t get misgendered ONCE and only got deadnamed once but it wasn’t intentional and we fixed the name in the system so it won’t happen again.

cis people DO NOT DO THIS trans women face MUCH HIGHER rates of violence than cis women this is going to put trans women in even more danger and would put this cis woman in more danger too ALSO: WE ARE NOT YOUR PUNCHLINE
A woman was approached by a man
today. He asked her if she thought her dress was a little too short.
She replied: „As long as my dick isn't hanging out at the bottom, I think we're good"
BOOM. Instant silence...
Bottom line: It's none of a man's business how long a woman's dress is.

The word “ejaculate” (verb) means to eject suddenly, and is used repeatedly in CS Lewis’ Narnia books as a synonym for “exclaimed”. So Bluesky posts being called “skeets” is in fact not a new usage but a very old one resurfacing.

Since you’re too cowardly to keep replies enabled I’ll have to quote you. Do you know what a reflection amplification attack is? If you don’t, go learn what it is, and then spend a few minutes applying that knowledge to think about how malicious actors can abuse a “no dogpiling” rule.
