despicable. fuck this.

“No deporting US citizens” is a CONCESSION???

It's Red Dress Dress Red week in Palm Springs! For @gedmagazine.bsky.social, I wrote about the history of The Center's signature celebration of joy and community. gedmag.com/afterdark/ho... @thecentercv.bsky.social #RDDR2026

"These agents, and the president who sent them, are no one’s heroes, no one’s saviors—just men with guns who have to hide their faces to shoot a mom in the face, and a nurse in the back." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

We interrupt this coverage of a shooting with another mass shooting at a school. www.cnn.com/2025/09/10/u...

This from Riley Gaines is why trans people freak out when Democrats try to carve out some compromise over sports. The politicians and activists attacking trans people are not interested in compromise! They're interested in our eradication from public life and are exploiting sports to that end

When you want to conduct a genocide without people seeing what you're doing, you kill all the journalists. That's exactly what Israel is doing. They just murdered 5 Al-Jazeera journalists living in a tent next to al-Shifa hospital. www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...

Adolf Hitler used the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin to promote fascism. I hope the world deprives Donald Trump of that same opportunity 92 years later.

NEWS --> An internal Homeland Security memo suggests Trump's use of military for domestic enforcement is about to get worse. It details top-level talks between Defense Department and DHS on what this should look like. Experts say it's alarming. We obtained the memo: newrepublic.com/article/1987...

So many institutions have failed for this guy to end up a high-ranking DOJ official. www.npr.org/2025/08/07/n...

This is what fascism looks like.

The world's democracies should boycott the Trump Olympics. Trump announces he will chair White House taskforce for 2028 LA Olympics www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/a...

Just in case it’s not already clear that ICE is a white supremacist thug army, Homeland Security is recruiting with a “defend your culture” slogan.

This is excellent. In three minutes she explains how democracies become dictatorships. It's happened so many times, yet in each country, most people said, 'it can't happen here'

It's happening. As some of us predicted. Dark times:

Taking notes for when they decide removing us from school books isn’t enough.

Today’s been hard but if you have it in you, please sign this petition to save the 988 Lifeline for LGBTQ+ Youth. Since 2022 it’s connected 1.3 million contacts with life-saving and inclusive crisis services. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The way to beat Trump's fake populism is with real economic populism: - genuine solutions like rent control and free fast busses - directing the deep well of public anger up at the oligarchs, not the vulnerable. This is what Trump fears most - and it's why he never wanted to run against Bernie

#Coachella starts in one week, and my organization has two billboards up on the nearby freeway reminding visitors and locals that we aren't letting up on the fight for affordable housing.

The pro-housing movement is about making housing affordable. We need zoning reform and yes many homes built by the private market. But government can and should build homes itself! I’ve long been a supporter of affordable housing development and glad that Canada is showing us a national path ahead.

Everyone should read this. And anyone who is non stop hysterical posting/catastrophizing online should read it twice

Maybe #BroadwaySky or #MusicalTheatreSky can help me. Saw a video at the bar Sat night. Big show number from the Tonys or similar event. Great costumes that looked early 20th century. They played spoons. James Earl Jones was in the audience. I caught none of the words. What was it?
