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.

WIP - a long time coming
An "old" conversation between @welshpixie and another .art friend (sorry, took so long that I lost you ๐).
In the last stages. Just a few details left...
@pbump
"One conservative activist admitted to the New York Times that the focus on trans people followed an extensive effort to find something that would serve as a wedge issue as effectively as now-broadly-accepted same-sex marriage."
But they'll get back to that, if we let them get away with stomping trans people. We have to push them back now, and push them back hard enough they don't try again.
Dwyane Wade's revelation that he moved out of Florida because of hostility to his trans daughter is important, potentially making the issue real to people for whom it might otherwise be abstract/easy. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/27/dwyane-wade-transgender-florida-desantis/
Aw, that's a good mom. Mine was more...
My mother used to say to me "Eddie, success comes in cans. Not can'ts." My name isn't Eddie, but she didn't feel comfortable with altering a direct quote.
RT @LvivJournal
Finbar Cafferkey, a native of Achill Island, Co. Mayo, Ireland, was killed near Bakhmut while defending Ukraine. Like many foreign volunteers, he couldn't bear to see what ruzZians were doing & decided to come to Ukraine to fight them.

"We have been fighting to live as sick, autistic BIPOC survivors since we were born.
We know how to fight. We are not going back.
We know that destroying the fascism that trans bans embody requires a militant anti-ableist analysis.
It requires us to understand that ableism underpins all attacks on bodily autonomy."

There's a pizza place near me - Italian-style pizza, and they have one called a Bianca that I really love.
Or beef ribs. No sauce, just dry-rub, and wood grilled. Any day is a good day for ribs. With a baked potato and steamed vegetables.
very alarming to see so much disinformation online, as an award-winning journalist who covered the death of Joe Biden, I know just how important it is to get every last fact right

Starting for something in my neighborhood is around $800K, but I bought it 20+ years ago. I couldn't afford to pay what it's worth now.

I'm living in Ventura County - north of LA, but not as far north as Santa Barbara. I still like to get up there when I can, but the entry price for a house up there is over a million dollars. Way too freaking expensive to live there, these days.
Imagine convincing yourself that children being taught about their rights, about the True History of the USA, and about not hating others for being different, is somehow a greater threat to their safety, well-being than being traumatized by active shooter drills every month, or being slaughtered by assault rifles while they sit in their classrooms. #RepublicanPriorities

That one is in Santa Barbara, just up the coast from Los Angeles. I lived there for several years.
@hyperlunk@bne.social
That's what it is, all right.
My cat always leaves the room when I start playing my guitar and I can't help but take that a little bit personally
That guy? He leaked dozens of Classified documents to his gun buddies on Discord?
Then we discovered he had released many documents, more documents, to a much larger Discord group, 600 people, aet another time.
Ok?
Now we find;
The FBI Found a Bazooka in Alleged Pentagon Leaker's Home
Jack Teixeiraโs attorneys argued he should be released to his fatherโs custody, but the DOJ says he's a flight risk.
Of course he has a bazooka, 2nd amendment right? Grenades for deer and fishing.
@brianonbarrington@mastodon.world
You'll get my bazooka when you pry it from...
Wait. I don't have a bazooka. Never mind. Carry on.
Twitter is dying, but my advocacy work helping trans people raise money via fundraisers depends on my five years of work I've spent writing on Twitter, so I need help.
If you're a trans person who needs help raising money for any reason, reply to this toot with your fundraiser. I'll reach out.
If you're a cis person and you can, please boost this post so your trans followers can see it.
@StefanThinks THE DROPKICK MURPHYS TOLD TED CRUZ TO STOP USING THEIR MUSIC BECAUSE THEY LITERALLY HATE HIM, WHICH I THINK IS BEAUTIFUL.
