Your reminder that Viagra for cismen and breast implants for cis women are gender-affirming care.
On that note, I actually have a BUNCH of books you can read while you're not going out because gas is too fucking expensive
Including my gothic horror novel, Woman of Sorrow & Blood, which comes out THIS FRIDAY diannagunn.itch.io
This site needs a break. Post 3 good things, none of which are the cessation of a negative.
1. Steak frites, rare, with chimicurri
2. Sea shanties sung with a wide range of voices
3. Getting to work with @cassmorriswrites.com and @natania.bsky.social.
Omg what???
I'm getting questions about why there are trans characters in my Fantasy novel.
There's a simple answer: trans people don't need to justify existing.
Glad to clear that up!
We're live now, let's go!!! Watch the vid on the main BK page for the Numenera crowdfund, or the MCG YouTube channel!

2. The sense of a labor-intensive article coming together
3. My homemade stuffed portobello mushrooms
Discworld QOTD, from Men at Arms
"Carrot often struck people as simple. And he was.
Where people went wrong was thinking that simple meant the same thing as stupid."
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
1. Sinking into an epic fantasy world in a good book
2. 60-70% dark chocolate
3. Seeing an epic landscape for the first time.
Happy birthday @marinalostetter.bsky.social
I've highly enjoyed Marina's work, both with near to far future SF as well as her fantasy. She's a multimodal talent and her books are (mostly) big, phat, and an excellent way to spend your reading time, or your commute or long drive time.
yeah I should be using more of the booksky tag, thanks

A look across the river Elbe from St. Pauli pier in Hamburg. You can see the Elbe Philharmonic, the tall ship Rickmer Rickmers and the musical theatre on the far side of the river. #Hamburg #Elbe #StPauliLandungsbrücken
An angry Canada Goose advances, wings held high. It ius a large bird with a pink tongue in a black beak, a black and white head, and brown body and wing feathers.
I've been out, so catching up on #BirdOfTheDay, with #OpenWingsNotFlying.
Here's an angry Canada Goose on the Thames foreshore.

that sort of thinking has infected other stores too. Went to Cub the other day, and a lot of the laundry detergent was not on the shelves, instead a card that said "bring this to a cashier to obtain the item"
Good news: it looks like they've re-committed to DEI! Looking forward to seeing the Pride merch, and I really, really hope they don't blow off my advice about the locked cases.

Outdoor Tip 🌤️
Spring weather can shift quickly. Layer clothing, check trail conditions before you go, and always let someone know your plan. Prepared visitors help keep parks safe and welcoming for everyone.

In this relief, the king is shown receiving the ring of kingship from a female figure, often identified as the divinity Aredvi Sura Anahita. However, the king is not depicted in a pose typical of a divinity, and it is therefore likely that the woman is a relative, perhaps Queen Shapurdukhtak of Sakastan.
#ReliefWednesday - Sassanid relief in Naqsh-e Rostam, near Persepolis (Iran), depicting the investiture of Narseh, the seventh king of the Sassanid Empire (c. AD 293–303). Narseh, Shapur I's youngest son, had ruled the eastern provinces and was called “Great King of Armenia” before becoming shah.
"Congress does not have a constitutional role in the declaration of war" is just an absolutely stunning thing to say.
A really good indication of the level of dumb / willfully ignorant / disingenuous / radical that is required to defend this regime and its disastrously reckless, illegal actions.
