What really stuck out for me at #CambridgePride this weekend wasn't the shows, the banners, or the hot topless guys. It was a group of kids in their v early teens. One of them had a masc body type but was wearing a very fem chiffon blouse thing over a tight vest: possibly just going for a femboy look, or maybe dressing as their preferred gender. (The outfit looked more like the latter but I don't want to assume, especially in the setting!) They looked a bit flustered but happy enough to be dressed like that among a (mixed but all cis looking) group of peers. And as it's Pride, I wondered if it might be their first time dressing that way. Either way, I hope they learned that day whether they liked it or not.
Even among an atmosphere of campaigning, protesting, and supporting, it was the most wholesome thing I saw that day, and it gave me hope. Do what you like, transphobes. You're too late, the kids already know how to be true to themselves.
"Bajo el Cielo de Verano"
El sol comenzaba a caer, tiñendo el cielo con tonos dorados y anaranjados. El campo, cubierto de pasto fresco y flores silvestres, parecía suspirar con la brisa suave de la tarde, como si supiera que aquel momento era especial. Sentados entre las sombras de unas hojas, dos figuras peludas compartían risas y miradas cómplices. El azul de uno contrastaba con el rojo intenso del otro, pero entre ellos no había diferencias: solo calidez, cariño y una conexión que iba más allá de las palabras y más allá de una simple amistad.

"Under the Summer Sky"
The sun was beginning to set, dyeing the sky shades of gold and orange. The field, covered in fresh grass and wildflowers, seemed to sigh in the gentle evening breeze, as if it knew this moment was special. Sitting among the shadows of some leaves, two furry figures shared laughter and knowing glances. The blue of one contrasted with the intense red of the other, but there was no difference between them: only warmth, affection, and a connection that went beyond words and beyond simple friendship.

"May I have your name?" the faerie said.
"William," she said with a smile.
"Ah ah!" The faerie gave a wicked laugh. "I have your name! Now no-one will call you by it!"
"Thank you," she said.
"To win it back, you must- what?"
"I will find me a new one," she said, "one that suits me better."
ahh that's perhaps not as bad as I feared it may have been...
I've honestly hated having to say I need communication like this, and sadly I've had to be extremely forceful in some circumstances - just to get communication in a format that is accessible for me.
Sadly it's had consequences too - for example, one credit card company offered an interest free repayment plan... Really cool huh? Well... Only if you phoned them... I couldn't email and ask for it, I couldn't even do snail mail....
So I complained to them, got nowhere, had to go to the Ombudsman not one, or twice, three times!!
All occasions they ruled in my favour... I got a small amount of compensation, but still not the same thing they offered people without a disability.
The end result was they terminated my account. Presumably because people like me are not worth the effort... 😞
I think my aspie brain struggles with injustice, especially when I've experienced it myself, so always encourage people to stand up for their rights!
Anyhow, apologies if I was projecting a bit!
‘#NoKings organisers have released an estimate of the turnout for today’s protests, saying the day’s events have drawn several million people so far. Several hundred demonstrations are still under way.
Protests were held at about 2,100 locations nationwide, in all 50 states and in some cities abroad.’
How many other news outlets are reporting the scale of this protest?
Millions show up to thousands of anti-Trump demonstrations despite killings in Minnesota; Virginia and San Francisco report vehicles driving into crowdsLuke Jacobs (The Guardian)
"This again?" the dragon said. "It's been just a few centuries since the last time.'
"Please," the knight said.
"I asked you to make sure you had a way of getting rid of bad kings yourself, before you made any new ones."
"We didn't understand we made a king."
"You are such fools. Very well."
I honestly believe that this is the best talk that I've ever given on secure by design, and all it took was a non-nuclear audience.

I fiiiiinally got myself together enough to actually phone the motorbike service place near Guildford and ask them stuff. My bike's chain almost certainly needs replacing, along with the sprockets, because it has a few stiff links that, while I thought I'd managed to free them up, still seem to be making it very hard (nigh impossible) to adjust the chain properly. The left fork oil seal has just slightly started leaking so that needs doing, and they suggested replacing both at the same time, which makes sense - both would be around the same age, after all. And the front tyre is near the limit.
The place near Guildford can do all these things, and I've been there before to have tyres replaced (as that seems to be their speciality) (and also they give IAM members a discount) but, once I'd reached the end of my list, the guy did ask how much the bike was worth, presumably with the suggestion that it might actually be better to replace it than get it fixed. And now I don't know what to do.
I don't want to start bike-shopping at this point - I like my SV and have always assumed I'll stick with it until I can afford to switch to an electric motorbike. I don't want to spend lots of money, but I do want to get the bike roadworthy again. Ugh. Maybe I should phone other places and ask them the same things and see if I get different answers. But I also don't want to have to make yet more phone calls. Hmmmm.
That morning, Nican and Zenith decided to go out early to skate on the frozen lake.
The blue red panda giving confidence to the bunny, showing how to glide over the ice without fear.
The snow in the trees hadn’t started melting yet, and the world felt like it was still stretching, still waking up.
It was just one of those mornings where everything felt simple.
Cold cheeks, warm hearts, and the quiet certainty that the day would be even better if it started together.

How this drawing reached Zenith is its own little story:
Nican didn’t just show the illustration to Zenith. He had it printed as a 1,000-piece puzzle, and gave it to Zenith all scrambled in a box.
They had to solve it together, piece by piece, not knowing what image would appear, and slowly, as the picture revealed itself: mountains, morning light, a frozen lake, and two familiar shapes that began with the eyes; Zenith realized it was a gift meant to be shared.
You can see how the puzzle came together on their bsky accounts:

"Can it be wrong to love?" the young woman asked.
The witch suppressed a sigh and a slew of memories. "You need to be more specific."
"There's a woman... Wise, patient, kind, and... she knows magic..."
"Nothing wrong with loving a woman," the witch said at last. "It might be unrequited, though."

Based on a recent post I saw, two important things about Paypal:
1 - Use invoices, not send/receive requests. It's more protection for you.
2 - Never, NEVER add any notes or descriptions. Say its 'art commission' etc, not 'vore piece ;3'. If flagged, one or both accounts can get permabanned.
I cant stress the second point enough. Many artists have Paypal as their only viable means to receive payments internationally, and a single 'Cool NSFW art' note can literally ruin their main source of income.
