Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Hi. I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold. I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

kristi noem is a sick fuck.

I have a huge request for my readers: Trump's tax and spending bill will be moving through the Senate. Senators can invoke the Byrd Rule to try to remove the anti-trans Medicaid ban and EHB changes. You can find and call your senator here and ask them to do that. Please share as well.

House Bills 67 and 244, both anti-trans bills, are up for public hearings in committee this week. Join ALTRAC in Montgomery tomorrow and Wednesday - let’s tell our legislators once again, Alabama does NOT need these bills! (If you can’t tell them in person, call or write. We’ll help: altrac.works)

Illegal ideas.

House Bill 244, the expansion of “Don’t Say Gay,” is slated for a vote in the House of Representatives tomorrow. Call and write to your rep tonight - even if you already did so when the bill was in Committee. Tell them to vote NO on HB244. We’ll help: ALTRAC.works

90 percent. They sent innocent people to a gulag so Trump could look like a tough guy. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

HB244 is scheduled for a vote this Wednesday, April 9, and we’re not out of the woods on HB246 yet either. Call and write your rep and the Education Policy Committee members now - tell them to kill both of these “Don’t Say Gay” bills! We’ll show you how: ALTRAC.works

Gotta correct the media again on something. The administration is not sending migrants to a mega prison in El Salvador. They’re sending human beings to a concentration camp.

To change is to grow and to grow is to evolve 💙💖🤍 [ #transdayofvisibility #art #pokemon ]

This #TDOV, read about Brandy Livingston's experience of sex harassment & discrimination—and how she's taking action to prevent her community from being dehumanized. We’re proud to support Brandy in telling her story through NWLC’s TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund. gaycitynews.com/transgender-...

this tdov marks a full decade of being 'visible'. if ten years have taught me anything, it's that just visibility isn't enough. chants of 'trans rights' without any actionable change isn't enough. all the passive allies in the world won't chalk up to anything if real action isn't taken year-round.

Fix Your Hearts Or Die! I'm transgender, I draw dinosaurs for a living, and I'm very tired and very angry. I was hoping to finish this for #TransDayOfVisibility but alas I'm not going to make it. It should be finished in a day or two and then I'll have prints and stickers. #Paleoart #SciArt

Good luck to all of the Fatales participating in this weekend's Trans Day of Visibility Celebration! 💜💛

ALTRAC and @at-the-root.bsky.social continue our fight against the far-right extremists who are attempting to erase trans and queer Alabamians from public life by attacking the public library. Read our full statement here: altrac.link/apls

REP. CROCKETT: “According to them the biggest issue we have is trans kids wanting to play sports… Since when?!”

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

‘No Way to Please Everyone’ Says Only University Where Students Are Regularly Kidnapped

Let us be clear: Donald Trump and Linda McMahon do not have unilateral authority to dismantle the Department of Education. That would require an act of Congress. However, he can still do a LOT of damage to sabotage the Department. And that’s exactly what he’s trying to do.

Reminder that the United States began destabilizing the UN and the ICC because of their defenses of Palestine. Trump is finishing what Biden started. Protesting for Gaza was always a protest for international stability and for the rule of law.

Mahmoud Khalil finally gets the chance to speak for himself: “My arrest was a direct consequence of exercising my right to free speech as I advocated for a free Palestine and an end to the genocide in Gaza, which resumed in full force Monday night.”

Happy Ides y'all! 😊

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

The senator shall bear contempt hereditary

I’m sickened by the democratic non-leadership. I’m afraid our senators aren’t telling us how they are going to vote because we will be betrayed Citizens are going to lose their homes Citizens are going to lose their health insurance Citizens are going to die. And it’s blood on their complicit hands

Democrats Sick Of Being Blamed For Cowardice On Issues They Actually Just Don’t Care About

The only thing that will stop the rapid decline of the US into fascism without violence is the ruling class feeling that their lives or livelihoods are threatened. I really think the only thing that will change the behavior of the GOP is them actually fearing for their lives.

A race see which happens first: hurting so many people including their own voters that there’s a massive public backlash or dismantling democratic institutions to the point they can keep power despite public discontent.

9. When a leader comes to power by demonizing a minority and one of their first acts is to erase all official recognition of that group, it should be a blaring alarm. This is not just political posturing—it is the groundwork for something far more dangerous, and trans people will resist it.

Today is my birthday. I would love if people could share my art :D
