If there is a state with greater scenic beauty than Oregon, I haven’t seen it. Mountains, high desert, Pacific, Hood, Columbia, Portland — it’s just spectacular. I don’t want to spoil anything for residents, but it’s a truly underrated state. I’m lucky to have married into it.
I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.
I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee
NEW: The DNC just passed a resolution condemning dark money donations - including those to AIPAC. A member of the DNC proposed a resolution condemning dark money through AIPAC, but the DNC panel rejected that and expanded it to include all dark money donations.

If I ever write a memoir or something about this time, my friend did this has already given me permission to tell the full story (it gets better but certain things aren’t ready for public consumption). Really, so much stuff has happened (and is still happening) here that I hope people one day know
I’m sure they were aware this was happening but the reality is that they had no way to prevent it unless they could figure out a way to get thousands of bored men in the dead of winter give up every hope of getting laid
Okay this isn’t really happening anymore so I can tell you how l had “internal ICE sources”: the 3000 very stir-crazy ICE agents were all going wild on Minneapolis Tinder. Local girls would match with them and string them along for intel. They loved to brag about what they were doing all day
They’d send live videos of raids, tell them where they were staying, and generally dump tons of operational information out to any girl who’d pretend to be impressed by it
