I’ve heard that good things come to those that wait, and getting my physical copy of @jeffcannata.bsky.social’s book today was an unexpected surprise! The bonus limerick included with the autograph made it feel extra special!

Super excited about how the Blackhawks finished this season and really can’t wait to see what the future holds! I expect next year we will be at least knocking on the door of the playoffs and we should keep improving for the next several years!

Playoffs are gonna be fun, but… Is it October yet?

Today’s Trans Rights Rally in Chicago and the march through the streets provided a much needed sense of hope and community.

Thanks @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social and @transupfrontil.bsky.social for the great event!

PSA for iPhone users: you can temporarily disable FaceID or TouchID on iOS by holding down the side and volume down buttons for a few seconds until the power down screen appears.

Loved to see support for both @erininthemorning.com and @zoandbehold.bsky.social today in Chicago at a rally for trans rights.

We will not blindly follow illegal orders because Donald Trump wrote them down on a piece of paper.

Illinois follows the laws of the land – not the decrees of an aspiring king hell bent on disenfranchising millions of voters who deserve to have their voice heard.

If they rename Lake Erie as Lake Ohio, then the mnemonic I was taught to remember the Great Lakes (HOMES) would then become HOMOS.

This world is ridiculously absurd.

Less than a week before we turn the clocks ahead, a less then 3 weeks before the sun sets due west, signally the end of winter and the beginning of spring.

Despite whatever is going on in the world, time marches on.

Amid the hellscape, I managed to get to the gym today for my first workout back after surgery 4 weeks ago. Less than two months until another surgery break.

I’m also traveling for my first work trip tomorrow to Boston for a day amidst a large winter storm.

I survive by focusing on the next step.

Opinion: NCAA lacks reason, spine in ban of transgender women athletes
The NCAA will no longer allow transgender women to compete on women's teams, sacrificing already-vulnerable kids.

I just watched something that said Pluto lost its status of a planet in August of 2006.

That’s Eighteen Years and a half ago.

I ordered way too many Girl Scout Cookies, from both east and west coasts.

Using this list to specifically support the most vulnerable kids and getting to read about their goals and interests is the antidote I needed for everything going on in the world.

If you’re in the market… buy from them!
1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

4 executive orders now against trans people. He’s banned us from sports, the military, schools, and healthcare. Representatives are calling us slurs in Congress.

So are y’all done yet? How much further do y’all plan to take this? And at what point will other people care?
February 6, 2025 at 12:02 AM
So wait… trans women are not fit to serve in the military, but are also too dominant to participate in women’s sports.
