can spoil how this is gonna go for you: everyone will lose their legacy check, it'll be chaos for a week or two, then musk will bring legacy checks back but insist everyone has to reapply and he'll take a personal interest in individual applications based on grudges
On April 1st, we will begin winding down our legacy verified program and removing legacy verified checkmarks.

Once again: anti-trans legislation is designed to suppress/harm/kill trans people, but it’s also going to suppress/harm/kill cis people. And no “hahah, they’ll fix that” is not the appropriate or realistic response in light of our political climate or healthcare system.
Florida HB1421 is defined so broadly, it would ban health insurance coverage for birth control, HRT for menopause, treatments for breast cancer, including mastectomies, treatments for prostate cancer, and any treatment that involves primary or secondary sex characteristics.

As we’re wrapping up the competition season for elite skaters, just a reminder I have an award-winning M/M #figureskating romance out that also includes selkie mythology, a former war reporter with PTSD, and a remote island in Lake Erie that’s almost real. amazon.com/Ink-Ice-Twin-Citi…

I thought they meant mobile phones for babies and not the things over the crib with dangling toys. Had to read is four times.

My employee is wearing a jumper with foxes all over them. An old lady asked her if she was trying to make a statement then asked me if my "woke" children's librarian identified as a fox.

Bought some Starbucks today and they said “Happy Indictment Days” instead of “Merry Trump’s Indictment”. The “War on Trump’s Indictment” continues from the woke, radical right. I just want my holiday back. nitter.artist.cx/i/web/status/163…

Woo, I sprained my MCL and am being evaluated for a meniscus tear and it’s all probably fine and I’ll probably be back on the ice in under a month but aaaaaargh. (Also not a skating injury fyi).
