"I thought it would set us back 50 years if I didn't win." — Billie Jean King
She walked in knowing the weight wasn't just hers — it belonged to every woman told she wasn't enough. Showing up isn't about fearlessness. It's knowing the cost of sitting down is worse than standing. Today the court is a Senate chamber, a prison medical office, a registration line — but the game is the same.

What Wendy's Doing:
Trump said we won the war in Iran on day one. If that is true, why the fuck is the US escorting ships through the Straight of Hormuz? So Fuck it. I Cried. Got angry. Wrote this. Some mornings the truth tastes like gunpowder.

A twenty-one-year-old kid from rural nowhere teaching a mountain of a man from deep Georgia how to read Japanese comics in a queer bar basement. That's the whole story. That's the whole revolution. Scissors and tape on a bedroom wall, updated for a generation that draws its own mirrors. #QueerFiction #LGBTQ #MangaCulture #ChosenFamily #QueerArt #TransLiterature

Blows the mind.

What Wendy's Doing:
DOJ shelved the autopen witchhunt, Trump is slathering foundation on a mystery neck rash, and Pete Hegseth got told no by the goddamn Boy Scouts — before my second cup of coffee. I pivoted from rage to dark comedy. I wrote this.

"I refuse to live a small life. I refuse to be diminished by the world's insistence that I should be less." — Dorothy Allison
Today will try to make your world smaller. The bills, the verdicts, the buried files — they all say contract. Don't. Make the pasta good. Let the radishes grow. Stay furious and specific. That is the whole fucking resistance — the refusal to shrink.

Today's Wisdom:
"You are not the darkness you endured. You are the light that refused to go out." — Danez Smith
You showed up this morning anyway. That is not small. Danez Smith writes from the body that has been targeted, politicized, grieved — and still refuses to go quiet. Hold your own body like it matters, because it does, regardless of what they pass or bury or burn. That refusal is the whole damn fight.

What Wendy's Doing:
Laughing at Kristi Noemore. That is all I am doing right now. But then — I Read the Bondi impeachment filing at 6 a.m. — three articles, obstruction, dereliction, DOJ weaponized as a personal shield — and the coffee went cold while I stared at the wall. Wrote this instead of screaming. The margin was thin.

Some birds aren't meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright, and when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice, but still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty now that they're gone

A trans woman’s lifelong dream — literally — of being herself: the girl with Shirley Temple curls who twirled and smiled whole. At 40, she stopped dying slowly and started living. Miranda rescued her from the dream. Now she dreams forward.

@zackwhittaker@mastodon.social That is utter and total bullshit. I moved all my short video content off onto our loops instance and peertube instances (https://loops.thistleandmoss.org / https://video.thistleandmoss.org ) for a reason. TikTok Running on Oracle infra is not something I can actively trust.
Saying they wont encrypt DMs, just furthers that belief.

@touaregtweet@mastodon.social #Noem is the most corrupt leader of the #DHS that has ever existed. She is the most cruel, and honestly, she should recieve the same punishment she doles out on others, only worse. I am not a good person for saying this, but she needs a stern lesson in manners and kindness.

Read about military commanders telling troops God personally anointed Trump to trigger Armageddon — in an actual combat readiness briefing — it was 7am, I went sideways, poured something stronger than coffee, and wrote this. Some mornings the truth hits harder than the hangover.
