More Trans in the NYT
Wow: Amos Mac and Original Plumbing magazine get a profile in the NYT. For those of you who think nothing has changed, and the media suck on trans issues, honestly: it’s just not true. These are huge changes, huge progress.
Moved In.
I’m one of those, the types who can’t stop moving / thinking / reorganizing until I’m entirely moved in.

Next up: getting the management company in to put bolts in the walls for art, because wow do we have a lot of it, & we finally have the space to put it up.
More photos as we manage it.
Bye for Now
This Leadbelly track came up in my shuffle just as I was finishing packing, so enjoy it while I’m driving west & away.

“The exclusion (of gays from marriage) exists as an artifact of a time when the genders were seen as having distinct roles in society and in marriage. That time has passed.” – U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker striking down Prop 8.
