This is why we told the limeys to go fuck themselves at the point of a gun. Any of it look familiar? #nokings

On this #independenceday, let’s keep in mind that in 1989 in Texas v. Johnson, and again in 1990 in United States v. Eichman, the Supreme Court ruled that burning the American flag is protected political speech. Do with that information what you will 😘 […]

In the words of Mia Wong, #ice must be destroyed

There are few places I’ve ever felt more out of place than a Walmart in rural Tennessee

Had never heard of #bobvylan before today. Saw a video of the chant and photo of Bobby in a #crass shirt. I’m sold immediately, they seem rad as hell

Seeing some extra spicy #USPol takes on my timeline right now suggesting certain things and y'all I 100000% get it but *especially* today you NEED to see this ⚠️ VERY ⚠️ FUCKING ⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️ REMINDER #ShutTheFuckUpFriday #STFUFriday #shutthefuckup

Or I could just tap the sign ...

YO GIRL GOT HER ESTROGEN PRESCRIPTION!!!

If you’re in the US heat wave this week - this is climate change in action. And unfortunately, this is still just the beginning. In 75 years, these will be the mild, good old days. Right now, stay cool and check on your neighbors, especially the young and elderly. Multiple days in a row where […]

There were a couple hateful Christian street preachers at #pride today, and someone set up a speaker right in front of them and starting blaring music and giving out hugs. You love to see it 😁💜

I know it’s just a generational difference in writing style, but I get so thrown off every time a #boomer uses ellipses to indicate a casual tone

[CW: disorganized emotions about being trans right now] Okay, hiding under a blanket, eating cereal, and watching terrible reality TV made the night tolerable. I am still terrified though. I am so new to realizing that I’m trans. It’s only been a few months since my egg cracked, but everything […]

I’m too upset to deal with reality any more today. I need to get off the internet and hide under a blanket

FUCK Can they just leave us the fuck alone? Kids are going to die because this country loves to cater to fundamentalist Christian hate and bigotry

Detoxifying masculinity is a climate solution. Part of “being a man” is performing gendered consumption patterns, like eating red meat, driving a big truck, rolling coal, etc. And care, for others and the planet, is seen as “womanly”. This culture of harming the environment as an expression of […]

It’s the thinnest of silver linings, but I feel like the villainy and gross incompetence on display in the US right now gives me more confidence in a personal sense? Like, if the “adults in charge” are this plainly evil and stupid, my anxiety brain has a lot harder time convincing me that I’m […]

Too much happening at the same time in the world right now. Wishing that simply existing in this time were less overwhelming

I love the feeling of coming home after a trip, even if it’s only been a few days. There’s something so soothing about existing in a space that’s just for you

I would play the shit out of a cooperative board game where you all play as the Diggers, with the objective of liberating the commons

The first round of seeds for my container garden have all germinated! It’s the first year I’m using heirloom seeds I saved from a previous crop. I’ve got basil, white cherry and Brandywine tomatoes, and Jimmy Nardello and Bulgarian carrot peppers 🌶️ 🍅 🍃 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Today is as good a day as any to say it - I’m #trans! I’m still in the process of coming out irl and starting my transition, but after so many years, I know who I am, and it feels good to say it out loud! Happy #tdov, y’all 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 #transdayofvisibility #transgender #transfem

1. Today, Senate Democrats showed spine, and killed a national transgender sports ban bill via filibuster. Not a SINGLE Democrat voted for cloture. S. Baum writes about what happened today, including some of the speeches. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Starting to think that incessantly scrolling social media for the past three days hasn’t been good for my wellbeing

It should be clear - the “rules” don’t apply any more. The guardrails are off. Anyone who has faith that norms and checks and balances will protect them is willfully delusional, because to disrupt that bubble with reality would be too painful. We are in a wholly different place now, and we need […]

[US politics] The richest man in the world just did a Nazi salute in broad daylight at the inauguration of the president of the United States. No more “it can’t happen here” - it is actively happening here. The only questions left are “which side are you on?” and “what are you going to do […]

"But you still had the old books!" "And hardly anyone could find them." "No one could tell the old books from the new, and the new books were ... they were not written by people. They were created by a mechanical process that allowed one to feed a machine several thousand books, and then […]
