@markmetz My daughter is an athlete and top student, sheβs receiving interest from many top schools as a junior.
Sheβs already discounting any colleges in pro-rape, forced-breeding, anti-LGBTQ, fascist Republican states.
Sheβs a really smart girl.
Hey friends? Please do what you can to actively support and protect your trans and queer friends, family members, and neighbors right now. Look around your communities and see how and where you can lend support or fight.
Bad things are escalating quickly.
Thanks, and much love.
Growing up, I had three sisters. One of them was a quiet child, often angry or sullen and sometimes cruel.
One day that person went away.
And then I had a brother.
He was cheerful and warm, finally comfortable in a body he'd wanted his entire life.
Conservatives want to eradicate my brother. I'm here to say that's not going to happen.
Toby or not Toby
That is the question.
And that would have been a perfectly valid point to make - in 2014. They no longer do that. Even Biden - who I hesitated to vote for, because he was known as a "reach across the aisle" guy - has given us Dark Brandon, who calls out the Republicans by name. So the Dems have learned. Have you?
If you look at what's happening in the world, and you're not losing your shit completely, you're actively in denial.
I'm pretty sick and tired of the word "alarmist."
Our world is splitting at the seams. Fascism is here, the planet is hurtling toward climate catastrophe, inequality is higher than ever, bribery is legal, our water is being poisoned, and the government not only ignores our pleas but grows more oppressive by the day.
To be frank, the alarms should have been louder and gone off sooner. We should all be screaming out our windows.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
