Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

More people should listen to @tressiemcphd.bsky.social When people say AI is inevitable, let them know the future isn’t settled.

Wanted to spread a little light despite all this darkness facing my home rn. Feels more important than ever to do so. 🩷

One of the ways I try to give back to my love for art is giving compliments and encouragement to people earlier in their art journeys than myself. Because when I first started learning to draw more in depth a few years ago, I never had that and I think it's so important to help others keep going.

How to end your business in 1 easy step lol. I'm not scanning my face to use a chat app that's ridiculous.

the idea that making art is embarrassing if you don't do it well enough to make a career out of it is an objectively harmful and toxic brainworm.

hatred of unhoused people is genuinely a pipeline to fascism. if the wealthy can get you to dehumanize your own neighbors, then they can get you to do it to anyone.

Renee Good's widow shared this statement with us today. It's absolutely heart-wrenching. 💔

At Whipple where expired dicks are being thrown at ICE vehicles and those believed to be agitators. The area has been a place of protest since thousands of federal agents arrived in the city. Near Minneapolis February 7, 2026

Posting about lived experiences to pick fights with people: 🚫 Posting about lived experiences to remind fellow trans and neurodivergent people they aren't alone in these things: ✅️ If my incessant rambles can help someone feel less alone then it was worth it. 🩷

Been thinking about this a bit more. Honestly one of the weirdest parts of these kinds of interactions is the ppl often won't seem to get that they told on themselves. So they'll keep trying to talk to you like they didn't just do that and act surprised when you're like "leave me alone please" lol

AI has only made it harder for disabled artists to continue making art because a disappointing amount of people would rather have visual gruel than pay people to make art, no matter how bad the slop is. Supporting AI is harmful to disabled artists.

Cis person: I love and support you! Yay! Hooray!! Trans person: Yeah, that's cool, uh, since that's the case...the other day you said some pretty hurtful things and I was hoping we could maybe talk about it? ^^; Cis person: 😡😡😡 This is why you don't have any allies!!! Trans person: ...😑

Relatable. I get tired of being told my social and sensory disabilities are a moral failing and I'm simply just not trying hard enough.

Billionaires should not exist, but it's getting really annoying watching people cling to damn near anything to avoid addressing the twin dancing elephants of antiblackness and transphobia in the room.

Mercado Central - a Minneapolis cooperative housing 35 small businesses - is halfway to goal of $500k to save the co-op & these hard-earned family businesses, livelihoods, and cultural landmark that the city would be poorer without. Please give (+share w/rich people) www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-...

Haven't posted about interests much as of late cuz if I'm honest I haven't had the energy for them. One tricky part of AuDHD is executive dysfunction. Lacking the energy to accomplish things. Even things you love. I'm doing what I can for now. Very tired zzz 🩷

Tons of these ppl wouldn't last a week being both trans and disabled. Going through life having your difficulties ignored, mocked and demonized on top of having your fundamental identity treated like its you playing pretend certainly is...an experience to say the least.

❄️Greetings from occupied Minneapolis, where a light dusting of new snow sparkles in bright sunlight and all I want for my birthday today is for you to stand with us. For my home or yours: donate, signal-boost, volunteer, talk with your neighbors, and build a better world! www.standwithminnesota.com

Things I love about my home: Sometimes ppl driving through are bumping a song I forgot about and I'm like "oh shit, adding that back to the playlist"

Happy Black History Month to: • queer and trans Black people • Black people who don’t play respectability politics • disabled Black people • Black people who are sex workers • Black people who aren’t Christian • Black people who don’t believe in the two party system • Black people who are erased

Hey guys I’m skittles! I’m a black women who makes dnd dice. You won’t find any one my furry acc but you can find all of my work on my dice making acc. It’s called “the twinkles brew” here is my carrd so you guys can see all of my different socials! :D thetwinklesbrew.carrd.co

aw yeah hat and backpack I'm so glad they're free I'm so furious they (and so many others) were traumatized This doesn't end until there are zero (0) kids being traumatized

Melted my brain. Like, all the suffering we collectively have had to endure because of this. All the lives lost. The homes, relationships, money, safety, all of it. I never wanna hear another cis person "debate" trans rights ever again. Fury doesn't even begin to explain how I feel.

Like on the one hand, it's ... I dunno, reassuring? to have some confirmation Ten years ago, it felt like things were getting better for trans folks. And then things changed. And we were like, this is coordinated. Someone *did* this, for their own evil gain And we were right

OHHHHH THE FUCKING RIGHTEOUS, VINDICATED FURY COURSING THROUGH MY VEINS

ESPECIALLY if you’re out here drawing gock. Don’t you dare try to distance yourself from what’s going on around you

Black Trans History IS Black History!  To those who shaped culture and built possibilities where none were offered. To those who fought, created, and demanded a future where Black trans lives not only exist, but thrive. We are here because of you.

Note

More people should follow furries reblogging weird porn and talking about their special interests. It'll help broaden their horizons. They should also give furries $20.

So proud of my home rn. Minneapolis my beloved 🩷

FUCK ICE ❗️NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL ON LAND THATS BEEN STOLEN ❗️FUCK FASCISTS❗️ History is repeating itself. It’s up to us to protect eachother, watch out for your families, friends, classmates, co-workers, and children. www.standwithminnesota.com

(This kinda fits in to number 2 but..) 4). The person is on the spectrum and has a direct communication style that rarely utilizes subtext and is frequently misunderstood as people apply subtext to statements that had none. Causing others to view them as rude, creepy, self-absorbed, etc incorrectly

Love can take many different forms. The form of love society centers gets treated as the only good form of love because it benefits the ones who decide what is and is not "normal". It's important to keep in mind, that what's considered "normal" was decided by another person with their own motives.

Being a pet is funny sometimes. My owner knows me too well cuz I was ordered to tell him if I need anything. I was like "I struggle with thinking things I need are important enough to ask.". He responded "I know, that's why it's an order~"

if you or someone you love is thinking of flying out to volunteer: please donate the costs of that trip to a rent fund

Opened my sketchbook for the first time in a month. Resting is helping. It's hard accepting that I gotta do what I can within my own limitations during all this. It never feels like enough, but loved ones are right. I'm doing what my disabilities can handle and that's what counts. 🩷

I wish folks would stop saying “AI art”. When you say that, you’re buying into (or at the very least, adding to) the propaganda that it can make art. It can’t. It’s output, not art.

Yup. For a lot of us who are trans we had to pretend to be an entirely different gender in order to avoid harm. I never got to have a real childhood, I had to hide through my teens and twenties. All because others can't just let us live as ourselves.

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year! Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him. He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary. His health is declining. Public outrage might save his life. Say his name:

It has now been four years
