The day @KevBot and I both became β€œfully vaxxed” in May of 2021, we went out to this restaurant with a patio for our first public dining experience in over a year.

It was cold AF but we were just happy to be β€œfree” and we took a photo of each other to commemorate the moment.

This resulted in us starting a tradition of taking photos wherever we’d go and I kept compiling them into 9x9 grids until I got up to 144 photos and was finally like okay, Alice, that’s enough.

I realize it’s ridiculously excessive, but we’d spent the prior year not even knowing if we’d ever be able to go to a restaurant again and we didn’t know how long it was going to last, so we were just trying to take advantage of it while we could.

#introduction

I’m Bendix, a queer sex worker and artist. I love cats and sci-fi, and goth will never leave my heart. My trans*ness and disability inform much of what I do and maybe even more of what I don't do. I’m sex positive, a tired activist, a lover of bdsm and retro video games, a life-long student of marginalised thinking, and in every little thing I do there’s some art and caring to be found.

I’m here to show art and nsfw stuff, and build my own little utopia of the anti-normative.

Secret Service was in touch with the #OathKeepers. An agent described himself as β€œthe unofficial liaison to the Oath Keepers (inching towards official),” and called the fascist group "very pro-LEO and pro-Trump." Said they were defending Trumpers from violent leftists.

The #MAGA rot runs deep.

Yurii Hnatkevych has been a nationalist since he was a child. He used to dream that #Ukraine would become independent from the Soviet Union, but he never thought it would actually happen.

He especially did not believe that he would vote for it himself as a member of parliament.

β€œI didn't believe it. I'm honestly telling you. None of the deputies believed that they would vote for the Declaration of Independence, and then for Independence itself," he told The #Counteroffensive.

Stochastic terrorism is "the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted." Donald Trump has been using social media to blast prosecutors, judges, and witnesses, and his followers have answered with calls for violence. If the ex-president is a stochastic terrorist, what should we do in response? thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p

In many ways, Star Trek was ahead of its time, like in this episode, where they warn about the dangers of Data mining

About deadnaming 

Jaysus lads, I know some trans people are well known in public but please don't share their deadnames (especially not if you want to complain about the sharing of deadnames)

It feels like a punch to the stomach if you see your own deadname and ruins your day. Celebrities aren't immune.

Also don't share it even if the trans person is in your eyes a shitty person. You communicate at the same time to other trans people that you don't take them serious
