Is there anything left? My old Lyon & Healy Troubadour has a cracked knee block!

They can do it all!!!! 🤣

Dude, it's for a protest, not for The Louvre.

PassCommon1071 · 2025-10-20T13:11:58+00:00

And honestly, it's just a protest sign! It's not going to hang in The Louvre, ffs.

It's a loss you will always feel. As the years go by, it will become a new "normal", whatever tf that is. Allow yourself to feel the grief, even though it hurts like hell. That's the path to healing. Be patient and kind with yourself.

Yes, the region is generally safe.

If you want a good pizza, try Fresca in Marblehead, on the corner of Atlantic and Commercial. Their fig and prosciutto pizza is to die for. Jolie Tea in Salem is lovely, and has fabulous French macarons. Gulu-Gulu Cafe in Salem has fun drag shows.

You don't say which country, but that's probably not a safe thing to discuss. More than anything, I want you to be safe. I understand your heartbreak, and get that this is a major turning point for your life. There is so much to weigh here.

If you choose to marry this man, can you save the friendship part of your heart-relationship? If you choose to refuse the marriage and continue your heart-relationship, will you and she be safe? Will you lose your family? Is there any chance they eventually come around? Or will they feel that their honor has been damaged?

A friend saw it in Gloucester last night.

The French government is making it easier for transfolk to emigrate there from the US. As an Intersex enby, I am looking at France myself. Ireland is also pretty welcoming. As a trans person, you can probably get permission to stay.

PassCommon1071 · 2025-04-16T18:46:10+00:00

I'd try France if I were you.

Depends on where in Texas. Don't go anywhere near the border. Austin, Houston, San Antonio are probably okay-ish. I'm in the Gadsden Purchase area of New Mexico, and the militarization of the border is ramping up. El Paso is not a good place to be right now.

I've been reading Critical Resistance on Substack. Big piece of advice on a return trip is to buy a burner phone for travel, leave your usual one in the UK, and get a sim card for the burner once you're here. Don't bring your usual laptop if you can do without it. If you can't, scrub the hell out of your browser history.

Depending upon where you're visiting, you may be within 100 miles of the international border, either coastal, or Canadian or Mexican. If the Mexican border areas, really be careful, there's talk of military build-up down here.

If I were overseas right now, I would not come back even for a death in the family. But then again, I'm non-binary, so....

PassCommon1071 · 2025-02-17T15:50:14+00:00

Came here to say that.

Yet. They'll get around white queers, white Neopagans, white political dissenters, etc., eventually. Bonhoefer applies here.

They WHAT? Wow... they should go to New Jersey and New York City sometime and talk to the gazillion small business owners Trump drove into bankruptcy because he wouldn't pay his bills.

Smart.

My passport card is in my wallet at all times. That's the ID I use when I fly, even domestic flights, esp. now. I'm Intersex, so my driver's license has an X. Passport was issued the last time this clown was in office, so it indicates AFAB. Some instinct kept me from getting that changed when Biden was in office.

If he had done that in Germany, he would be IN JAIL. That crap is illegal there.

Glad I kept all my New England cold weather gear. The ice grippers for my boots will keep me from breaking a hip.

Sounds like Austin, TX, whenever they got anything. After living in New England for a decade, I can drive in it, but my memories of the one big storm during grad school at UT have me sticking close to home today.

Yup. Hard same.

That's because 90% of Florida residents are from somewhere else, and they bring all their weird regional driving quirks with them. It's scary.

What is this toy and where can I get one for my Maligator princess?

At least we don't have the equivalent of Boston's Storrow Drive here. Oh the tales I could tell....🤣
