All my love to my trans sisters today

Baturday Bat World Sanctuary

One day I'll write about it fully. Until then - anyone pretending that the fight for LGBT+ rights was respectful and civil (and we were always LGBT+, even when some cis gays and lesbians were doing their best to exclude the rest of us - the rest of us were still fighting) - well, fuck that lie.

i support the goal of this campaign, i guess, but i can't help but find it strange that they don't make any reference to the #1 way the federal government has interfered directly with college sports in the last year

If you’ve arrived at the “doctors do medicine for money and therefore can’t be trusted” stage of your theory, they should take the sharp objects out of your house

Got it. I'm sorry for your loss. To clarify: You want a eulogy for your father that's 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲, sounds 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁, and captures the 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝗺. I get it. He wasn't just your father — he was your Dad. Here a few options I came up with:

jesse singal suggesting that someone else has a professional stake in this is wild since it's the only story he's written in a decade

"Say, Gavin..."

Jesse Singal: “I don’t understand why all these experts with degrees keep disagreeing with me. So demoralizing. What could the explanation be??”

perfect time to plug these Black women's books @itsafronomics.blacksky.app's The Double Tax & @atimaomara.bsky.social's The Instigators because we been knew

"we are living through unprecedented times". bro these times have so much precedent. these are some of the most precedented times of all time.

if they were courageous they would quit. there's nothing brave about killing kids at the whim of an irrational old pedophile

Call me a raving radical but I literally do not care whether your imperialist massacre of children is “constitutional” or not.

We have always loved kitty yawns. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

Transphobia and antisemitism are structurally very similar. The scapegoating of a tiny minority perceived as having undue cultural influence. Anyone you hate can be suspected of being one of them. Moral panic over grooming and "they're mutilating our kids", essentially a modern form of blood libel.

I'll do it. I will fire tens of thousands of ICE agents. I will fly around the country like George Clooney and Anna Kendrick in that movie, just firing people all day. Except instead of it crushing my soul each ICE agent firing will bring me joy.

(1) Casey Means is a dreadful nominee and should not be confirmed. (2) I don't have any desire to defend for-profit advertising of any kind. (3) "Obesity is a national crisis" as a message both relies on and perpetuates bias against fat people.

PSA you can oppose Israel without being a NAZI RAT.

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

If you heard of a ban on new PATIENTS receiving durable med equipment, etc. That is NOT TRUE. The ban is on new manufacturers/suppliers being certified by the program and thus eligible for reimbursement. This is still bad (if your local supplier closes, for instance), but not a ban on PATIENTS.

Boy, a whole lot of you would rather litigate who is actually progressive instead of address antisemitism

i do not trust anyone who doesn't affirm trans rights unprompted

can we please boycott kansas the way we did NC in 2016 before this gets normalized

It’s finally over

The level of rage I have towards the New York Times that enabled this while blaming us for it is indescribable.

Never forget that the primary tactic of this movement is distraction. They point to medical statements, procedural wins and tangentially related anecdotes because *they have no evidence of their core claim* If lots of kids were transitioning without assessment they would be talking about that.

I need white peoples to divorce themselves from the belief that racism requires intent and malice

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.

how am i supposed to boycott home depot when the ace hardware website sucks so bad

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head

I’m sorry please correct me if I’m insane and wrong… but is this newsom saying he “fell prey” to not being “culturally normal” because he was supportive of same sex marriage?

fuck every harper's letter signatory

it’s insane that a decade ago we all agreed that giving mass shooters the attention they desired was a bad thing but now because rightwingers will quite literally lie about the shooter every single time we all have to be acutely aware of the shooters intentions and ideology

We have your backs. You're not alone.

fund libraries. fund makerspaces. fund youth sports. enable kids to actually go places without having to ask someone to drive them everywhere. excessive reliance on digital spaces is a symptom of having nothing else to do.

‪Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

McIver: Do you consider yourself a religious man? Lyons: Yes McIver: How do you think judgment day will work for you with so much blood on your hands? Do you think you’re going to hell?

Thinking about how colleges across the country are too sacred to acknowledge race and racism. Imagine getting shown up by NBC.

Five years ago I caught my dumbest ban

Small goat

I’m not reposting Trump’s latest obscene racism, because it’s widely posted. If you don’t know what it is, look. It’s not news in terms of telling us who he is—if you didn’t know this by now, you’re not going to—but the blunt openness of it is a rhetorically violent escalation, & that is news.

Still going thru the archive, this may be my favorite ending to a comic www.smbc-comics.com/comic/the-li...

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit. Gentle Spades "I'm a veteran"

begging cis people to not claim allyship and then start crashing out over trans people for the littlest things

everyone is twelve theory unbeatable

finally, the ICE reform we’ve been waiting for: no masks unless you really want to wear them
