emily likes cloth

logged on super early and then once again now and nah, nuh-uh, nope, good luck with bluesky, folks.

do you people have any idea how rare it is to get 99% of a large group to agree on anything

"the media is hostile to trans people" probably gets a more unified reaction than "three times three is nine"

yeah. waiting to see what the hospital does and if there’s another letter to sinai.

i’m also waiting for mamdani to do any of the things in his plan.

i have completely memory holed black and white mary tyler moore show.

spectacular.

the tub thing. to hell with these beatles. give me moore.

you and me both, girl.

a person could know nothing about me other than “emily spent about 7 years doing the be v. be with foxtrot of yearning in front of nick at nite” and have a decent guess at what you’d be in for meeting me.

this is unquestionably the correct answer, though i would have allowed get smart to sneak in and get the better of me because of agent 99.

Captain Sensible - Wot (1983) YouTube video by ClassicVideos80s

Captain Sensible will return... in Avengers Doomsday

tonight's fundraising goal let's go.

"My Vengeance" knocks me sideways because Viv had endured so much and died long before she should have. And I suddenly remember her talking about receiving her new birth certificate. She didn't think it would matter. But in the nondescript envelope was a kind of official recognition that she didn't know she needed until it arrived on a piece of translucent paper. SEX: FEMALE. When my updated birth certificate arrived in the mail, I remember how elated Viv was.She treated me to drinks at a swanky hotel lounge nearby. She held up her cocktail glass, saying, "To you. You won, babe. You absolutely fucking won. Cheers."

like, this isn’t even a particularly remarkable passage except that also it is & it feels even more remarkable at this particular moment when this victory is being ripped away from some people, like yanking a rug out from under people so hard they flip like bowling pins and land on their heads.

shouting “blockhead” at a round head: they’re calling it the misgendering of phrenology.

Child gets furious every time Lucy calls Charlie Brown a blockhead because his head is round. This is viewing number 50 of The Peanuts Movie.

Shit like this is the botox and lip filler of photography, taking something wonderful and making it weird and artificial. It's not an improvement, it's not enhancement, it's digital vandalism. And it further erodes trust and melts brains, which is what gen-ai is designed to do.

(gen ai is like lip filler, and lip filler is a form of vandalism designed to erode trust is a real shitty thing to say, buddy)

lotsa love to the other trans folks tonight. some days, this is all kind of a lot. 💜

sometimes this is all kind of a lot and i can’t imagine what it’s like for the fucking kids.

hahaha okay america that’s enough of the genocide-brained anti trans stuff today hahaha whew haha i maybe have hit my limit for the day with the courts and the hospitals and the attorneys general haha let’s pick it up maybe in a few weeks or we could just not do any of that again hahahaha whew.

Something else about Vanderbilt's capitulation: VUMC said it would only offer “nonsurgical gender-affirming care for adults 19 years and older.” But 18-year-olds are adults. Tennessee law bans this care for people *under* 18, so VUMC is once again overcomplying

remarkable. remarkable.

There just isn't a lot of substance to conservative views at the end of the day? It's an unshakeable belief in hierarchy and authority. You can only dress it up so many ways.

congratulations, mr mayor.

Nine Inch Nails - Head Like A Hole (Opal) YouTube video by indiedancepop

i literally have “and i walked miles uphill in 100° weather to get the remix record” stories.

(unfortinately, one of those was the US head like a hole maxi single. fortunately, another was the UK head like a hole single which had the opal remix. that one was worth the jaunt.]

growing up with fixed, closer to god, & further down the spiral kinda fucked with my expectations from major LPs in my life tbh.

“what do you mean my favorite song is also a totally different song that’s also my favorite song?”

That Trump neck thing? Seen it before.
