It’s so crazy that being trans has so much negative stigma when it’s the coolest thing ever. It’s like if ripping a killer guitar solo was seen as gross & suspect. “We just don’t know about this lead guitar stuff. Do what you want, live your life, but don’t rub it in my face” WTF is wrong with u
I guess all these critics are planning to follow up their year-end lists with a list of “The Albums of 2025 That Were Even Better Than Those Other Ones”…??? Eagerly awaiting
Every time I hear that Bob Seger song “Turn the Page,” I’m like: Bob. Just don’t book the shows. You don’t have to play the shows if you don’t book the shows. And then I realize I’m talking to myself and I stay home for 6+ months
As a longtime wearer and clutcher of actual pearls, I am APPALLED and HORRIFIED at the proliferation of “pearl-clutching” as a derogatory expression for performative overreaction. I stand with my fellow pearl-wearers and all the diverse ways and reasons we fondle our pearls

Federal terrorism in my beloved city. Bring these bastards down. Block them wherever you can. ICE go home.
Don Gibson@dongibson.bsky.social · 11mo agoAwful. Here’s a video of it being shared on Reddit www.reddit.com/r/chicago/s/...

In 38 years, I’ve learned a few things about life. Some deep, profound things. Oh yeah… these things…… just wait til you hear em…..
Everyone commenting on my shit online is either like “you are disgusting keep away from my children you misogynist pervert” or else “you are the finest mind of our generation your soul is worth more than other souls please kiss me”. Chill out
This is very very bad. This person - Mahmoud Khalil - has been detained & relocated & his wife no longer knows where he is What he did: demonstrate against US/university support of Israel Does making people with the wrong political stance disappear sound like anything other than fascism to you?

The inability to accommodate trans people is a pretty wild claim from the society that does Daylight Savings Time
I will never forgive the right wing for causing this many well-meaning liberals to say things about trans people
Being that I reject the labels “leftist” and “progressive” I am workshopping some new names for my politics. One contender is “thrivalism” but my favorite is “don’tkillmeism”
