I’ve observed that a great many Pagans don’t actually seem to live by values that line up with the tenets of their traditions or faiths. In that, they’re just as hypocritical as the Christians they sneer at. Not surprising, really, but it’s still frustrating to see. The more things change… 🤷‍♀️

Increasingly, telling ourselves it’s morally acceptable to hate people weaker than us.

Two of my favorite ice creams have been the pistachio, cherry, and chocolate spumoni at the Old Spaghetti Factory (shut up, it's delish) and the short-lived cardamom ice cream from Molly Moon's in Seattle. The community kulfi from Three Sisters is like a perfect blending of the two. 🥰🤤

I owe my knowledge of kulfi to @themollyjay.bsky.social's book AETHER, the third book in a lesbian superhero romance series that, like kulfi, I absolutely love.

I just ate a quarter-pint of kulfi—sometimes known as "traditional Indian ice cream"—flavoured with cardamom and with bits of pistachio throughout. At least 10% of my personality is now "I fucking love kulfi."

Y’know how they say shoe therapy is better than regular therapy? Yes, that’s fine, but counterpoint: Sword therapy is better than shoe therapy. Because if you can’t work through your issues, you can still stab them. With a sword.

The point is to manufacture consent for the outlawing of gender-affirming care and, ultimately, for the criminalization of being transgender. That’s always been their end game.

Many people have said he's funny, even people whose opinions I trust. Based on the samples I've heard—all recent—I'm forced to assume it's his older material. I can't criticize people for liking it, but I don't feel any need to learn more about him. To me, he's just another boring transphobe. 🤷‍♀️

I didn't, but not out of moral prescience. It's just a matter of timing: I stopped watching TV in 1990, so I missed an awful lot of pop culture. I only know about most of it from memes. All I know about Chappelle is that he hates (a.) having his hypocrisy pointed out and (b.) trans women. 🤷‍♀️

Pro tip: if reading someone's posts makes me think to myself, "Christ, what an asshole," I just block the author. Nothing of value has yet been lost due to this policy, and I've saved myself no small amount of irritation.

These were taken almost seven and a half years ago, the day we brought them home. They're still adorably cute and obnoxious as fuck.

Drove 5.5 hours to see Emma Ruth Rundle play a 40-minute opening set. Totally worth it. Drove another hour to a hotel, then another 30 minutes the next morning to have brunch-and-book shopping with @aemiliavind.bsky.social, then another 5.5 hour trip home. Also totally worth it. Goodnight, moon. 🌙

The artwork in this hotel room is… upsetting. 😓

A black-and-white image, overlaid with wavy blue lines of variable thickness, of a globe lamp on a lamppost, surmounted by an imperial Roman-a eagle, in front of a domed building roof of the sort often seen in European cities.

I think there are a lot of people who very much want that sentiment to be true, and choose to act as though it were. 🤷‍♀️ Reality is, as usual, more complicated than that.

I just saw someone “correct” a cis person by sneering “We don’t say ‘transsexual’ anymore, do better” at them, and I have never in my life wanted to scream SPEAK FOR YOURSELF, BITCH this much. I didn’t, though, because I’m trying to learn to be kinder than my worst instincts. I deserve a cookie.

If I tried to stay informed about every terrible thing happening in the world so I can be outraged, I would do nothing else with my life. Not a figure of speech: I would do nothing but partake of the world’s sorrow and post about it. Fuck that. I choose to live, for as long as they’ll let me.

I had no idea this show existed until an hour so when I saw @katrafiy.bsky.social post about it, and now I’m utterly in love with it. And yes, the ending made me tear up. 🥹 You should watch it. (Don’t start here, though. Go watch episode 1 first. Or don’t. I’m not your mom.)

These shitlibs actually think they can bargain with fascism. Despite, y’know, literally all of recorded history demonstrating that’s a lie. But refusing to walk willingly into the slaughterhouse makes me the bad “guy” (ha! get it?).

Bluesky political discourse: "Choose now: everyone eats 100% shit, or you and your loved ones eat 50% shit while the rest of us go to brunch." "I don't want to eat any shit. I don't want ANYBODY eating shit. Why isn't that an option?" "UGH! YOU AND YOUR PURITY POLITICS! ENJOY THE CAMPS, TRANNY!"

this is how you have to treat these guys. with genuine contempt. your genuine contempt makes their smarmy fake contempt look weak and inauthentic. it immediately exposes their game. these guys are just losers who have sworn revenge for every humiliation. humiliate them again

Notice how this fully anti-trans detransition therapy rhetoric is so functionally similar to the "you're valid no matter what, you don't have to transition to be trans" rhetoric that we have all inculcated ourselves to?

Seeing the ways some people talk about other people’s life choices reaffirms my decision not to share anything personal here. I talk about being trans, my childhood, or my musical tastes, but I don’t share intimate details about my life. Bluntly, some people are cruel, and it’s painful to see.
