anyway i think the best we can probably do as trans people is support each other and particularly support trans women. i think in the end the cat is out of the bag and now that so many people know transition is an option, transness is here to stay.

Commenter in the thread nailed it: Craig voted for the Laken Riley Act, which paved the way for Metro Surge while incidentally getting Frey that cute minute on camera while remaining radioactive to actual progressive policy. He owes her.

jacob frey has endorsed angie craig for US senate. both lost the DFL endorsement. i'm curious about frey being called "a rising star in the party." he certainly got a lot of media attention after operation metro surge, but mayor seems to be the ceiling for him www.startribune.com/jacob-frey-e...

Akihiro Miwa is a legend. Fukasaku's Black Lizard and Black Rose Mansion are both incredible heaters, Miwa just devours every scene. Here's the scene where you get to see Miwa turn Yukio Mishima into a human statue. Best bond villain in history.

Akihiro Miwa, one of #Japan’s earliest most visible LGBTQ+ icons, singers, and film stars, has died at 91. Their best known role overseas was in 1968's Black Lizard. www.sankei.com/article/2026...

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

1) Open this image up 2) Find the small, blue feature in the very middle Congratulations, you've spotted the Perseverance rover on Mars, photographed from orbit! 3) Trace the rover tracks as they wend their way across the surface

A complex landscape of buttes, hills, hummocks, and sand dunes, in tones of gold and teal. In the middle, a small, beetle-blue feature. Around it, faint parallel tracks.

of all the work I've done, one of my favorite gigs was helping Blue out on this adorable and extremely niche graphic novel about gay people who love to eat bugs

Yarrow just wants her neighbors to give her insect-based food a chance, impress her personal hero, and perhaps be given a chance herself by the one she's crushing on for weeks! 😳❤️ MEAL 🥘 by @bluedelliquanti.bsky.social with @soleilho.com is 30% off ALL MONTH! store.ironcircus.com/collections/...

Yarrow is a young chef determined to make her mark on the cutting edge of cookery with her insect-based creations. Though her enthusiasm is infectious, it rubs some of her fellow cooks the wrong way, especially Chanda Flores, Yarrow's personal hero and executive chef of an exciting new restaurant. Her people have been eating bugs for centuries, and she's deeply suspicious of this newbie's attempt to turn her traditions into the next foodie trend. While Chanda and her scrappy team of talented devotees struggle to open on time, Yarrow must win over Chanda-- and Milani, the neighbor she's been crushing on for weeks-- or lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to achieve her dreams.

Train yourself out of overusing Ctrl+Z in your digital drawings by practicing in a sketchbook where you can only use pen. When you have to live with the lines you put down, those lines become stronger and more interesting.

Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

Please submit a comment on this proposed set of funding rules by July 13, it'll allow the cancellation of any federal grant and block spending if applicants or institutions don't pass a political litmus test (like supporting trans ppl whatsoever). www.regulations.gov/commenton/OM...

If you wanted to fundamentally compromise science research and were disappointed that Congress continued to fund it, this is the sort of document you would produce.
