From the very beginning of this recent obsession with identifying everyone online (yes, they like to call it "age" verification, but it always ends up as identity verification), we've been pointing out that it was a huge privacy nightmare waiting to happen. Or maybe it wasn't waiting. Maybe it was already happening. This week a...

I've posted my unused Hugos acceptance speech(?) in this unlocked Patreon post.

Thanks goes to every single person in the webcomics community, readers and creators alike, and special thanks to @tkingfisher.com and @davekellett.bsky.social for being such darned good sports.

1. Anti-trans Democrat Seth Moulton just lost his Senate primary in a LANDSLIDE to outspoken trans ally Ed Markey.

To Moulton, trans kids were a liability the Democratic Party needed to abandon. But to Massachusetts voters, the only liabilities are Democrats like him.

There was this one episode of the series where Eeyore was off sitting alone and the others try cheering him up with things they like but it doesn't work. Then Pooh just sits with him for a bit and realizes that he's not sad, just watching cool shit in the sky. As a melancholy kid, that spoke to me.

Eeyore has always been my favorite winnie the pooh character because his sadness is never treated as a failing or a burden. He's just sad. He likes his friends and he wants to be a part of their lives but also he's sad. I always liked that.

If Dolly was our constant reminder that it was Good to be Good, Tim Curry was our reminder that it was Good to be Weird. Embrace your strangeness, sing with Muppets, wear your lingerie with a leather jacket, and fuck with uptight people who hate anything that makes them remotely uncomfortable.
RIP to a motherfucking icon.

i dont care if transgender equality isnt popular. i dont care if someone is skittish about transgender kids participating in school sports.

i dont give a fuck. we live in america. one of our bedrock principles, even if we dont execute it enough, is that we are all equal. period.

When the selkie returned to the beach, a man was holding her sealskin.

"Is this yours?" he asked. "May I borrow it?"

"You want to be a seal?"

"No, but when I take it off, I'll be a woman, right?"

"My heart, you already are," the selkie said. "That skin is mine, but I can help you find yours."

At the eve of the summer solstice, I pick seven different flowers, in seven different fields, all in complete silence. I tie them into a bouquet and put it under my pillow.

Doing so means that tonight, I will dream of my true love.

I already live with her, but I like dreaming of her too.

All the trans folks and furries (and scalies, and...) come running.
The artificer pulled a lever.

"It's active."

The device looked like a doorway, a slight shimmer in the opening. The artificer stepped through.

"Nothing happened," the apprentice said.

"I already am who I am. If you step through, you'll turn into who you are."

"May I?"

"I built it for you."

There are a bunch of girls being like "I can fix him." LOLOLOL

Can we use this to shame hawks somehow?

(Also, can we stop trying to fix things with bombs and making lives hard for those suffering? It never works the way we want, and it's not going to start now."

My day job is at a rural branch of a public library, and we have a Pride display. Yesterday I was at the desk when a man came in. Fifties, maybe, or sixties. Plaid shirt, mesh trucker cap, suspenders. He went up to the display and just stood there for a long moment. Then he came up to the desk. 🧵 1/
