It's up here for now while I figure out an alternative to substack.

Content Warning at the front but I should re-iterate that it gets dark.

Bluesky is great because there will be someone with 200,000 followers that you literally never interact with and it’s like that Simpsons steamed hams thing where he goes WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE

rest in power miss major. this is what it means to constantly be negotiating your existence!

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 7h

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

Here's a cool thing:

This is a graph of women in computing over time.

Look what happened in 1982.

$A graph showing % of women majors in various fields from 1965 to 2010. Women were on par in every field until the mid-80s, and then precipitously dropped to a fraction it had once been while the other fields kept getting more rep.$

This concentration of wealth has progressed with every US presidency. And then people ask

“How did we get here?”

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 1d

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Here's another one for free: most writers are as bigoted and incurious when they come up with their characters as your average network TV casting agent.
