Kat "UNIONS 2026" Callahan

It was a very good campaign. Better than Beto's by a lot. We will see if it carries.

This is not a bit. I have in fact two actual horns. A small bore tenor and a symphonic tenor with a Thayer valve F trigger.

We are in the dumbest timeline.

Just a constant Black Mirror or The Orville Earth Like Parody Planet episode over and over and over and over.

I made an Unknown Unknowns joke to my trombone instructor a few weeks back.

It was a sign.

ChatGPT uninstalls surged by 295% after DoD deal | TechCrunch Many consumers ditched ChatGPT's app after news of its DoD deal went live, while Claude's downloads grew.

Yeah that's the shit

So I'm fully back to playing trombone after 23 years.

Wait. Playing trombone seriously.

Middle east quagmire.

Jesus Christ, am I in 2003?!

Let this serve as a warning to Dems who abandon trans folks and vote for anti trans bills. You will be primaried, and you will lose.

So it’s early 1934 in this re-run and already the public identification of trans people is becoming law.

Let alone the cis people who only had incorrect gender markers because of clerical mishaps.

My father only learned his name was mixed up because they put the wrong names on the lines when he joined the military and they told him he wasn't legally who he had grown up being.

These things happen.

I already know of several intersex people who do not identify as trans or GNC who are running into issues after a lifetime of seeing themselves as cis or "normal except for that thing I was born with and corrected." They didn't realise the fight included them. They do now.

As there is no difference in such certificates for clerical errors, intersex conditions, or folks who identify as trans, is Kansas just gonna fuck over cis people whose hospitals of states fucked up decades ago?

My guess is maybe yes!

I wonder how this affects those who moved to Kansas, changed their gender marker, but now have a correct birth certificate.

My sex assigned at birth is female. That's what my birth certificate says, and Illinois will tell you to pound sand if you try to assert previous documents as correct.

Update/Scoop— New guidance sent this AM to Kansas DMVs indicates licenses that previously had gender marker changed not actually invalid yet. However, internally DMV can see who is flagged, and keeping track of who has/hasn't come in to update. Seems about 300 trans/GNC ppl flagged across the state.

Tatjana Wood has apparently passed away at age 99. Her father was Jewish so during WW2 her parents sent her to the Netherlands, then NY. She studied as a dressmaker, met/married Wallace Wood and began assisting him, then pivoted to becoming one of the best colorists in comics.

My weirdest creation is almost old enough to drink.

Yeah, but that's why I stayed. For all of the rightward political posturing and mulling mulling mulling, things are very predictable and stable here. Mundane is nice.

Look at this outrageous public display of sexuality!

You're itashimashite.

To clarify, the association owns the server. And the board is elected from the members. We have a constitution and everything.

Mastodon gets closest. I'm on a small server by people I know in physical meat space. It's incorporated as a non-profit association. Users are members.

From today's SWU communique "NLRB administrative judges found that Starbucks committed more than 400 labor law violations." Delete that Starbucks app and keep it off your phone. It's bloatware anyhow.
