She loves pizza, and wants to try macaroni and cheese. She’s never had Mexican food, so we might go out for that (rather than serving a bad/blah approximation). Hoping to give her some good food experiences while she is here!

Crowdsourcing!

We are hosting a Japanese teenager for a little over a week. She’s a vegetarian, but does not actually like vegetables or tofu. 😂 Her favorite foods are white rice and natto, both of which we can provide.

Looking for recipes or suggestions of things she might enjoy!

In college I had these tight bellbottom denim overalls that were my *mom’s* from the 70’s. The straps were too short (mainly because I had boobs and mom didn’t) so I cut up an elastic rainbow belt & sewed bits on to extend them. Along with my freedom rings, I was the perfect picture of a baby queer.

If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!

Sometimes there is good news. I ❤️ living in Oregon. Here's hoping more states follow suit.

Indeed there seems to be a problem with the book section of Amazon (at least) and sale links don't seem to work. I'm sure this will be fixed reasonably soon, and in the meantime, a reminder that Amazon is but one retailer, and my books are available many other places, including your local bookstore.

Gods, I am so fucking sick of the 'ideology' and 'contested' argument. Trans people aren't an ideology, we're a natural human variation, which means we've been around a fuck of a lot longer than every extant religion and form of government. The only 'contesting' happening here is by bigoted asshats.

a bunch of dice are on a table next to a sheet of paper that says beyond Alt: A bunch of dice are on a table next to a Dungeons & Dragons character sheet that is lying on top of a grid paper map. Camera pans out and then zooms in on a cat sitting behind a DM's screen.

Happy DM's Day to all you current, former, and prospective gamemasters out there. Here's hoping you roll with advantage all day long.

This is why I miss mass market paperbacks, TBH. Why can't we just have nice things??

UPDATE

KOSA has been combined with the SCREEN Act to form the new KIDS Act

We have less than 48 hours before this new bill goes to markup d1dth6e84htgma.cloudfront.net/H_R_7757_Kid...

Please, contact your reps and say NO to the KIDS Act

This novelette came about when I started thinking about Iphigenia, and Seila the daughter of Jephthah, and how similar a fate they shared and how they should have gotten to commiserate despite the hundreds of years that separated them.
