Just had "canvassers" bang loudly on our front door and ring the doorbell twice. I opened the door hesitantly because of the aggression. It was a young person (looked like a teen boy dressed as a girl, wearing heavy makeup and a long furry red tail 🤦♀️) accompanied by an older woman wearing a shirt with the pride progress flag that said "no hate." They were urging a vote on some proposition to do with trans kids in schools.
I'm afraid I was somewhat rude.
I made this for my friend's daughter who is trying out pottery. I've been making her little instructional videos and this one is a timelapse of me trimming and putting a handle on a mug. Thought I would share in case you guys find this interesting.
Someone shared this with me who said it had been circulating in the Hasidic community. Will likely offend a lot of people these days.
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
I know many of you know about this and we talk about it in group but I just have to get it off of my chest that I think about this multiple times a day every day and feel so anxious about it.
So glad to have this space to share that with other human beings.

Lots of information to be agreed with or not. Although he says he’s “unaligned” I find a lot of similarities even though I feel like I’m in the “TERF” or gender critical side. Just good to see lots of “sides” in one place.
The mutual regard between these two during this entire conversation was off the charts and delightful. It gave me a lot to think about and allowed me to return to one of the few authentic eureka moments I felt like I experienced during college when I was introduced to the concept that the alphabet ( the written word) is a technology.
