    I’ve gotten SUPER into writing to presidential candidates this year because I am fucking EXHAUSTED by the fact that federal politics are eating up so much attention, and have for so long, that even when we should be “between cycles” we NEVER are, so local governments just do whatever the fuck they want while we all stare at DC. So it's time to talk to these big stage candidates like they're as accessible as the local ones if they're going to steal all our focus.

    The corpse flower is blooming at the New York Botanical Gardens and this is the best day to go!

    I went a few years ago shortly after the peak bloom, and it actually smelled marvelous at that point, but trying to see if I can get there today for the prime stink period.

    City Council is currently holding a hearing on new housing laws, and if you are a New Yorker and care about this, you can watch online here:

    My best friend’s partner: Why doesn’t Di Blasio mention that New York is a sanctuary city?

    My best friend: BECAUSE HE DOESN’T WANT TO TALK TO HIS GIRLFRIEND ABOUT HIS WIFE

    Every time Di Blasio talks, I feel like I have discovered my partner has a secret dating app profile and I am reading his DMs.

    Also, creative ideas are welcome-- the orgs don't have to *specifically* be about homelessness, but if you can suggest people I could speak with who might be able to direct me to the right place, that's cool too.

    As y'all know, a big part of my work (and ALL of it right now, since I'm essentially homebound) is working to secure permanent housing for people in shelters.

    I specifically would like to do outreach to support orgs and shelters working with homeless trans people, as I think it's critical to have a trans sensitive person as a buffer between the tenant and landlord, but internet searches have not been that helpful.

    Please boost!

    Is there a way to retroactively make all your toots followers only?

    Boosts welcome-- will delete when I have an answer.

    Absolutely obsessed with these “i’m still BI” pieces by @nomsikka on Instagram. (The last two were commissions by @jessiepaege on IG, which is why they are the same blue haired woman.)

    @witchfynder_finder @fluffy Being queer being reduced to someone’s relationship to someone *else* is missing the whole goddamned point.

    It’s nonsensical. Like saying “Couches are couches.”

    Like, OK, sure, but what’s love got to do with it?

    It probably also really bothers me because these love-centric phrases have been so co-opted by “well meaning” straights who are comfortable with us as long as we conform to their aspirational version of the heteronormative, getting-married-and-raising-a-family, monogamous lifestyle, but not if we’re raunchy, slutty fuckers (and heaven forfend, sex workers!), and it’s a phrase they can use to signal to one another how “progressive” they are. 🙄

    Maybe I’m just a bitter old bi, but the “love is love” and “love wins” slogans that seem to be all over Pride stuff the last few years really rub me the wrong way and reek of respectability to me.

    Yeah, queers love people, but what sets us apart and freaks out the straights has never been who we love. It’s who we fuck. Being all, “But it’s about LOVE!” totally misses the point.

    ...and I sure as hell haven’t loved *every* woman I’ve fucked.

    @mawr @missbird Not sure how age appropriate this is, because there’s some extreme violence in it, but I just finished the And I Darken YA series and it was incredible.

    The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue is fantastically funny and also really sweet. Haven’t read the sequel.

    Also, the Grishaverse books have some queer characters in them, and aside from the most recent, they’re favorites.

    The next time someone tells me it’s so sad I’m not having kids, I will just start describing to them, in detail, the visceral reaction of both rage and agony I just experienced trying to rock climb at the same time as sixty 10-14 year olds.

    So, a single father I moved out of a shelter less than a month ago just sent me a picture of himself in his graduation gown and now I am straight BAWLING on the train.

    But, of course, you already have lost generations, here. They will never be kids again with community rec centers and sports and arts programs and whatever.

    And getting adults who have been brainwashed into idolizing self-sufficiency as the ultimate religion to come together as communities, to be vulnerable with one another about their trials and pain and difficulties, and to be supportive of one another, is extraordinarily hard work.

    Any large scale war on addiction that focuses on eliminating drugs is like going after plaster casts because you want to stop people from having accidents that break bones. The drug is not the problem-- it's a shitty, shitty solution to underlying problems in a world that makes actual treatment and support for psychic pain wildly inaccessible.

    This is a legit headline today:

    "Benito Mussolini’s granddaughter has spent decades defending him. Now she’s feuding with Jim Carrey."

    I’m not that far into a book written by a woman from a family of literal spice merchants, and I find this gem: “There is a lot of insecurity around food and spices, and capitalists would have you believe that all you need to do to cook well is buy more things.”

    I’m suddenly so much more into this book.

    Yesterday, I taught a bunch of landlords’ agents about fair housing law as it relates to people with housing subsidies and this photo is me joyfully telling them that everything they think is “unfair” to their landlords is just the law and that the Commission on Human Rights doesn’t fucking care if their landlords “can’t refinance their buildings if they’re full of subsidized tenants.” 🎻
