Chaotic good

this story from today's Ask A Manager is killing me

I'm not sure if my plantar fasciitis joke will stand

I have a joke about Hashimoto's but it's weighty. My asthma joke, however, is a real wheeze.

It feels like every online space for discussing literary fiction (as opposed to light or genre fiction) turns randomly, horribly transphobic. It's depressing.

People want to rip on the Dems/biden for “not doing anything for trans people.” Fine. But understand the implications of this. SCOTUS has blessed it. And it means that if Biden is in power next year, they’re going to put the screws to red states over treatment of trans people

Utah prison discriminated against transgender woman, Department of Justice findsapnews.com The Utah Department of Corrections is under fire for discriminating against a transgender inmate who the U.S.

My honest Harry Potter opinion is that the first three books are solid kid lit and there's a gradual drop of quality from there. Half-Blood Prince is BAD. As a kid, I gradually lost interest without being able to explain why.

Eat shit, Ron. “A lawsuit settlement over Florida’s Don’t Say Gay statute announced Monday affirms that teachers and students can discuss LGBTQ+ issues and have access to related library books, largely canceling many of the impacts of the signature legislation from Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.”

Settlement in Florida ‘don’t say gay’ lawsuit says it’s okay to say gaywapo.st Students and teachers will be able to speak freely about sexual orientation and gender identity in Florida classrooms, provided it’s not part of instruction, under a settlement reached Monday.

I'm in gender trouble again (don't know how to relate to straight women when I'm a gay guy, a straight guy, and a lesbian in a trench coat)

The drop-off of trans panic after the DeSantis campaign collapse has been incredible to behold, and proof of what a top-down, non-populist phenomenon American transphobia is.

The ‘GODZILLA MINUS ONE’ team are wearing Godzilla-themed shoes

Chinese elites used to prioritize beauty over comfort to such a degree that they slept on decorated ceramic headrests, like this tiger I saw at MIA.

At a Mennonite church. I did not know LGBTQ-affirming Mennonites existed, but the Twin Cities continue to surprise me.

The religious trauma discourse is very bad.

Made the grave error of listening to Coconuts by Kim Petras before work.

Harry Potter is one of those things where I don’t care how important it was or is to you sentimentally or whatever. I insist you find another fucking thing. There are so many things. Other things. Better things. Literally anything.
