He/him. Creative mind in a tired body. Happily married to @Skyliting.bsky.social

Still upset about Bluesky bowing to the censors, but I'm not nuking my account here just yet. If I ever do vanish, you can find my other socials at truebluespark dot com.

Hey, kids! Remember to re-select Model Transform if you want to move an actor around after posing them. Or as my friend @tricksterloke.bsky.social put it, "When you hear the wet cat food open from the other room"

The closest comparison for the Grok thing we can imagine right now is if cereal made a bunch of people ill and the news put a microphone in front of some cereal boxes at the grocery store and was like “well they didn’t admit guilt, not sure who else we can ask”

Written by the father of a trans girl…

“When society tries to police and exclude trans girls, it ends up policing all girls.

Because transmisogyny does not just say, “Trans girls aren’t real girls.” It also says, “There is only one correct way to be a girl.””
Why the War on Trans Girls Is a War on Girlhood
Excluding trans girls is controlling who can be girls, and who can't, further dividing children and causing harm

This is absolutely revolting. @ossoff.senate.gov , @warnock.senate.gov , how DARE you sell out my trans family and friends, and for what? An attempt to earn political points with scum who would never vote for you anyway? Consider me a vote for anyone who primaries you from here on.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Let people be their true selves, as they know and understand them. Let children explore their identities. Celebrate difference and variety and the incredible spectrum of humanity. The only alternative denies an opportunity to celebrate the joy of human flourishing and is ultimately unspeakably cruel

People can't handle a trans person changing their name but they'll say "oh that group of people? Collectively they are known as Portugal. The Man. No that's all one sentence, the period is part of the name. Yeah I think they got it from whatever words were visible on the corner of a newspaper"

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

/checks for my county and situation
/living wage is $20 higher than what I make

Yeah... Yeah, that tracks.
Related, here is the "Living Wage" for where I live in Ohio: How much you need to make on a yearly basis to be able to afford things like health care, child care and housing. Depending on circumstances, it can be $100K+, and I live in a "cheap" area in the US.

Maybe it is the abuses that create division, not report of the abuse, not consequence for the abuse.

Maybe it is bullying that causes division, not fighting the bully on behalf of the bullied.

Maybe it is lies that cause division, not the telling of truths.

Maybe we need to change the frame.

We need to start to understand that “respecting people’s beliefs” means giving the people holding anti-society beliefs what they want, which is separation from society. Respect their agency that they want what they say they want. Give them credit for the natural logical effect of their belief.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.
