things to say in an artist alley: "where are the 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀?" "i think your art 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗸𝘀." "this isn't 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 the price." "can i see your 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗯𝗼𝘅?" "i can make this for free with 𝗔𝗜." "do you do commissions for 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲?"

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.
A building.

@treewarrior.bsky....
maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists

All things considered, If I had known every single dumb joke I've ever made was going to get taken 100% seriously by thousands and thousands of people, I would have at least tried to make them funnier.

"what if the democrats become labour on trans rights" is the nightmare scenario for trans people in the united states and avoiding that is why I think we need to continue pushing back on dems who waver as hard as possible

This point, from my recent interview with @perrybaconjr.bsky.social for TNR, is so crucial. Trans people are desperate for relief from the relentless Republican attacks impacting all of us. When Democrats move right, they signal relief may not be coming, and that engenders a lot of despair.

And so for Democrats to say, They have a point on some of this, it is engendering a lot of hopelessness and a lot of fear in the trans community, because we have been just trying to hold on, hoping that this time would end and we would be able to get back to where we were five years, six years ago. And what Democrats are signaling is, like, No, we’re going to keep things as they are, and maybe even make them worse.
