As you know, the death of Twitter has devastated small creators. Would you please reskeet to help me get the word out about my newsletter, The Bugbear Dispatch? Thanks!
When I got the news about the assassination attempt, "I knew there was no American 'unity' coming that would in any way include me as a transgender woman." The first night of the RNC certainly proved that last night, but pundits are still busy scolding Dems www.bugbeardispatch.com/p/america-th...

I had a busy Monday planned before, well, Monday happened. As such, my piece about Cannon took a little extra time — but, I think it was worth it, b/c I was able to pause and consider what she wrote before I wrote. Read and subscribe to Law Dork now —>
