There seems to be a lot of discussion about Gavin Newsom today. I wanted to re-share this piece that I wrote, because I have a lot of center-to-left Dems that follow me that want to understand. There are very good reasons transgender people do not like Gavin Newsom.

I can’t stop watching my child suffer. I can’t afford their medicine, and every missed dose feels like I’m losing them piece by piece. As a father, there is nothing more terrifying. Please help if you can, or at least share. Don’t let my child’s life fade in silence. 💔 chuffed.org/project/155233

There's a transmasculine version of this. If someone assigned female can become a man, it means there's nothing so special or powerful about men. Each of us has the biological truth of equality between the sexes within us, as demonstrated by the ability of some to pass from one to the other.

Oh to be a little Tardigrade walking around a microscopic volvox algae colony. 🫧🐻🧪

if it's 2026 and you're already insisting everyone throw their support behind literally any idiot democrats nominate no matter what, you are telling everyone that not only do you have zero principles but that you just want to be told what to do and how to vote bc thinking for yourself is too hard

if i was a better self promoter i'd have advertised these stickers like a week ago ko-fi.com/s/c53b29a665

ICE is still very active in my neighborhood this morning. They just grabbed someone nearby. Don't believe the propaganda.

Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

I'm pretty sure I know. They aren't. We're not going to really be able to make a lot of progress in dealing with the implications of this tech unless and until we get rid of all this "woo-woo" talk about LLMs. Anthropic pushing this line is PR, unserious.

#OtD 13 Feb 1913 82-year-old labour activist Mother Jones was arrested in West Virginia for supporting a coal miners' strike. Convicted in a military court and sentenced to 20 years in prison, she was pardoned after serving 85 days. More on the Mine Wars: workingclasshistory.com/2018/06/09/w...

Didn't expect but Hell Yeah! High court rules proscription of Palestine Action unlawful! Shabana Mahmood, Starmer & the rest of the gov't can shove it. "“a very significant interference” with the rights to freedom of speech, freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of association"

If you've seen me post about the Block The Bombs Act before, you should know this Action Network link will let you send a pre-written (but editable) letter to your House rep urging them to cosponsor.

Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius): This European & Asian species of Jay is a habitual acorn horder and historically a key player in natural oak woodland regeneration. This Jay species has a harsh screeching call. Terrific photo of a Jay taken by Sue Cooper in Sweden. #jay #wildlife #nature #sweden

The Pride flag at the Stonewall Monument is re-raised! New Yorkers won’t let Donald Trump erase LGBTQ+ history, or trample the rights of our LGBTQ+ neighbors.

Every place has learned from those who came before and then offered to teach those who will be next, and i don't think those in power understand what they have unleashed with their cruelty or their inaction in the face of cruelty.

If you want to know what we are doing here, contact me. I made this quote post so anyone can interact. Let me know here and we can move the convo to more secure channels. Please learn, prepare, and get ready.

The administration is relocating ICE agents to other parts of the country to see if they can achieve better results with the same tactics there. If you're outside the Twin Cities, learn and replicate their model for resistance. If you're in the Twin Cities, keep your networks intact and carry on.🖤

hey, this might sound a little freaky, maybe even a little radical, but I think the focus should be making sure writers/artists are properly compensated, supported, and have a secure way of living/creating instead of trying to replace us with robots, and/or having us train them.

Peacocks have been on the brain lately

JFC I've heard that Fetterman is considering supporting the SAVE act. It's a disaster of a bill that would create sweeping disenfranchisement. Whoever your senators are, I don't care, call them. I don't wanna hear if you think they definitely will or won't support this, take 3 minutes & call.

Colorado has started putting polling places in prisons, and people have been voting at really high rates there!

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger endorsed a constitutional amendment to automatically restore voting rights to people with felony convictions when they leave prison. State lawmakers passed the amendment and it will now appear on the state ballot.

Urgent 🚨 🚨 I am a father from Gaza. This is my child. We are extremely exhausted. We sleep on the ground and die in silence. The situation is dangerous and we need your help. Please, we need $400 to keep my family warm and to repair our tent Link support 🙏 chuffed.org/project/ahme...

With this project, we aim to show queer joy from all over the world. It's a global celebration in times of censorship, and the resilience of Indigenous queer people amplifies this, making Gale's celebration of their Métis culture the perfect cover! 🔜 www.kickstarter.com/projects/tap...

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.

Matt Braly has shared never-before-seen development artwork from his canceled feature film at Sony Pictures Animation. The project centered on a young boy who embarks on an emotional journey into a fantastical realm of Thai spirits, hoping to find a cure for his illness.

Noodle dragon I did while ago, I'm still in love with the palette <3

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Happy Xiao Nian or Little #NewYear! This is when you prepare for the big one. Today, I'm starting the #LEGO #SpringFestival Galloping Horses Canvas set, which has lots of interesting cultural details that I'll be telling you about as we go along. Let's get building! #culture youtu.be/VxQKD9_0cNk?...

Fuck capitalism and transphobia and the TERF wizard lady specifically Read weird trans books

Just some random painting of queer Joy and tenderness for no reason other than visibility.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude
