Let's see if we can raise $10,000 today for red state or national queer orgs. Post proof here in the replies that you donated to a red state or national queer organization and I will share. Who's with me? (I can't donate myself because I'm a journalist who covers these orgs)

I mean, many black & brown kids are told flat out that their choice is the military or prison.

We are teetering on the edge of a transgender genocide in this nation, and it is the duty of ALL CIS PEOPLE to stand in the way. There is no group we can sacrifice to keep the rest of us safe. It's all of us or none of us. I, personally, can no longer tolerate cowardice.

I get it, you don't want to look at fat people. But speaking as a Poor Disabled Fat, having heavily processed snack foods advertised at me is not even in the top 50 of my problems accessing fresh nutrition.

Being unemployed right now is such a fucking nightmare.

PLEASE, friends and friendlies, my life is on the line here, and so are the items in my storage unit, such as my spare mobility tools, including my wheelchair. I also need to restock groceries ASAP, but the very first priority is rent. Without that, I die and all other needs are moot. PLEASE HELP.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

Hate having to repost this over and over again, but I'm really worried about not being able to make my credit card payments in 3 days. If you can spare anything to help, PLEASE DO SO! Like and Share! #transcrowdfund #mutualaid #maboost #crowdfund #helppeoplelive #helpsky #fundsky

If you're not following @mostlybree.kitrocha.com, you're missing out on opportunities to help communities. Communitunities? Getting supplies to fascist-targeted neighborhoods feels really nice, to boot!

Supplements are very very expensive and I hate it so if anyone wants to send me supplement money, I really appreciate it.

Alrighty, my voyage to Australia is coming up and I'm temporarily closing my shop while I'm away since welp, Liora is smart but she cannot pack orders and mail packages with her little peets. I'm running code AUS15 for 15% off all ready-to-wear orders now through the weekend! varanidparadise.com

Cis allies: today is an excellent day to check on your trans, nonbinary, genderqueer, fluid, agender, intersex, and gender non-conforming pals. Support an artist, maybe. Drop money into a tip jar. It's Black history month , so Black gender nonconforming people getting support is great.

The state of Kansas invalidated trans people licenses. Here's one way to help. www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

Child services agencies are part of the carceral state, too, just like any other specialized enforcement agency. They also have histories full of targeting indigenous families and non-white kids for removal, often solely for being poor.

Sterling is a luxury, but you can still have really nice things without having to break your budgets. There is absolutely nothing wrong with sterling plate over alloy.

To summarize what seems to be the story of BAFTA: They knew John Davidson has Tourettes and hurls out slurs, sat him near the back of the room and chose to seat him near a hot mic. According to him he was told any slurs would be edited out and that he was unaware that his ticks could be heard /1

NEW: Amazon is telling people who use its wishlists feature to switch to post office boxes or non-residential delivery addresses if they want to ensure their home addresses remain private, as part of a change in how it processes gifts bought from third-party sellers.

Please dont let this run out of steam.

Important article. Nothing burns me up more in the literary space than the same folks who praise dark and mafia romance with their whole chests denigrating urban romance. Tell us why you find one genre acceptable but not the other. I’ll wait. baltimorebeat.com/black-urban-...

No matter where you live, if you have any capacity to volunteer, we have a lot of unpaid folks helping administer rent and skymiles donations, and we need more support.

I am all sharp angles and raw emotions today and just doing my best not to be terrible to people

2 news headlines: Bill Gates and Larry Summers both resign or admit to affairs and apologize re: Epstein. I don't WANT resignations and apologies. I want them in a cage for the rest of their lives and their fortunes confiscated and given to the victims as restitution.

Mallory, you doll. Thank you. youtu.be/FgaqKIxS4Hs?...

I’ve come to realize people think slurs are just words that hurt our feelings. No. Slurs, particularly the N-word, F-word, antisemitic terms etc. aren’t taboo because of that. It’s because historically when these terms are said they precede or pair with pitchforks, torches, lynchings & gas chambers.

I still have one media download code for the StoryBundle, if anyone is interested in covering it. A lot of people would be very grateful!

Trying to get back into the habit about posting about the shop, so here we go... Pet dragon pendants are on sale! There are fire sprites available and rock friends are back in the shop! And I engraved some more journals finally, so there are a few available! www.whimsystation.com

If you’re not on the Poster’s Madness livestream, what are you even doing tonight??

I have noticed that when it comes to anti-Black racism, the ask is usually "let's minimize the impact because of the intent." In too many instances, Black pain, embarrassment, and dehumanization come at the expense of absolving white guilt.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered. ~ Veterans for Peace

Polyamory groups stop being whorephobic challenge number 9000, apparently impossible.

there are only 2 types of criminals, the one who has watched every episode of forensic files ever broadcast and shaves off all their body hair and wears sterile clothes to fare jump at the subway and the one woke up today and on a whim hired a hitman to kill their spouse with their joint credit card

this is wild

FML. There appears to be an issue with scam calls to the families of people kidnapped by ICE. The callers claim to be immigration lawyers, say that they’re going to help, and demand an up-front payment over WhatsApp or similar. Real lawyers don’t do that!

I am never going to get over the fact thar so many Americans died that corpses stacked up in nursing homes and hospital morgues, that refrigerator trucks had to be brought in for the overflow, and that the big takeaway from Important Pundits is there should have been *less* mitigation.

Stress fucks you up real hard, and I have the heart arrhythmia to prove it. I also have the cardiologist with his constant you should reduce your stress statements to prove it and the next time that motherfucker says that I think he should solve this problem by giving me his house.

"The Social Circle city manager was contacted by ICE... “They asked me to turn on the water,” he said of a 1m sq ft warehouse nearby that the government plans to use for locking up as many as 10,000 detainees. “I told them I’m not going to do it,” he said... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

something abled people don't get is you can have just one day a week where you are too sick to work, and that's enough to disqualify you from nearly all full-time jobs. it doesn't take a lot

This is human trafficking to be clear. And it's not new. Adoptees (among others) have been talking about these kind of pipelines for literal decades.

Remember: when they say kitchen table issues, Dems are, and always have been, referring to the issues that they perceive as being important—in a politically neutral way—to the heads of households of (white) nuclear families.
