Jennifer English is an international treasure

The files released so far consistently refer to Bubba when talking about Bill Clinton. I wish I was kidding when I say this might've been what causes me to lose my grasp of reality. Wtf does this mean if not what we're all assuming it does? Is THIS why he hates Hillary so much?????

It's kinda like if you were born intuitively feeling like the A button should be on the right, X should be up, B down, etc. but life hands you an Xbox controller and everyone gets super weird the moment you ask about button remapping.

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Feels like I'm being gaslit about Nancy Pelosi right now. She did a lot of good but the end of her career is marked by opposition to change within her party and insider trading. She represents the failures of the Democrats over the last decade and that part of her legacy should not be ignored.

Pretty sure I peaked as a photographer with these shots yesterday. The lil chipmunk was still cautious but more friendly than I expected and the white throated sparrow was singing the whole time too <3

Still need to decide on an outfit for her but oh my god the customization in this game is so good. More of this, Pokemon!! SV were so disappointing for fashion. (I picked Chikorita btw)

The Pokemon games make a lot of mistakes but representation and diversity aren't among them. None of the fashion options are gender locked in Legends ZA either.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵) www.consumerreports.org/lead/protein...

I don't live in NYC but I live close enough that future mayor Mamdani is still impacting local politics. I've been registered as a socialist voter for more than a decade at this point and it's hard not to get ahead of myself with excitement. This is what being an ally looks like. More of this! 👏

I moved to a place with a lot more trees last winter and I forgot just how fucking loud Blue Jays are when they mimic hawks. Even worse I'm never sure if they're doing it to bully the other birds or not! If they're gonna be loud they should at least be polite lmao.

Yeah, in Saudi Arabia, they'll just execute the trans people criticizing him and burdening his free speech.

Is anything working harder than the 🤪 emoji these days

Mycella Nightcap It's getting close to my favorite spooky season and my head is full of art ideas sprouting like mushrooms ahahaha #Witch #Mushroom #art #painting #illustration

I'm so excited to play the FFT remaster tomorrow. That game introduced me to Marx and radicalized me in middle school. I can't think of a better time to revisit it than as an adult under a fascist regime.

"Bill Kristol quotes George Washington's condemnation of 18th century antisemitism to defend transgender people from scapegoating following the assassination of Charlie Kirk" is an actual sentence

So we're at THAT part of fascism now.

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun. Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found. WSJ owes a full retraction and apology. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The tougher questions we're apparently unprepared for--what if the shooter was trans? What if he was Black or undocumented? Would that really justify whatever group punishment Trump wants to unleash? Is such a proposal even thinkable when the shooter is a white man?

20 minutes of Mario ports and movies zzzz

It's fucked up that the only thing I can think of with Charlie Kirk is "please don't let this have been a trans person" because it's time to flee if it is.

The NRA is more on the side of the trans community than Gavin Newsom

Okay people who like FF14 and Xenoblade, am I crazy or are these two SO alike? I know Xenoblade and FF12 were THE offline MMO JRPG experiences but I'm a bit surprised by just how similar. Wandering around Dravania for the first time felt like reaching Agniratha, the music is similar, etc.

Daskalakis: I very specifically use the term pregnant people, and very specifically added my pronouns at the end of my resignation letter to make the point that I am defying this terrible strategy of trying to erase people

Yet another reminder that Gavin Newsom believes gender affirming care ruins lives and believes in policies worse for trans people than the current Trum policies. Liberals can't help but talk over minorities who know when politicians will not have their back.

If you support Gavin Newsom you aren't a trans ally. Period.

Daily reminder that Gavin Newsom said gender affirming care ruins lives and that your support for him will cost trans lives.

Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader? I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.

Friendly reminder that Gavin Newsom used gay marriages as a prop to further his political goals and then admit he admires that Charlie Kirk hasn't given up the fight against gay marriage. Stop lining up for corporate candidates who don't care about Americans beyond their voting power.

I started Heavensward last night and made some changes to my girl. LOVE how she's turning out. It really is true that FF14 gets SO much better towards the end of ARR.

Guess all it took for people to forget Gavin Newsom has thrown the queer community under the bus is for his social media team to type in all caps. Really fun watching Democrats, again, scramble to align with another politician that thinks 12% of their voting base deserves less rights.

I'm playing through FF14 for the first time and the new player experience in ARR is...something. I'm near the end of the MSQ and the parts that weren't filler are fine but there's a lot that clearly shows the issues they had from overhauling the first launch. Very excited for Heavensward content tho

Dream Ghost More wavy wiggly lines to sooth the my mind. Inspired by the SF bay fog that washes over the landscape like waves in the night. I want to grow wings and surf the wind. I want to be a dream ghost. #art

I got an email about a class action lawsuit against GameStop and it's REALLY funny to me that settlement payments can be claimed in store credit or cash at a lower value.

Being autistic online is fucking exhausting. I'm so tired of people nitpicking arbitrary word choices I made because they assume I have malicious intent. I promise I'm nice I'm just autistic and word things differently than you would have 😭

Samus gazing at the world. Funnily enough, I can't recall seeing any artwork that depicts Samus accompanied by an actual bird. #metroid #art

Incredible news for trans people - the Medicaid provision is out of the Trump horror bill. It did not require a point of order vote, and instead, Republicans pulled it out on their own, likely knowing they would lose the vote. Good job to everyone for calling their Senators.

Wyden, the top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, says Democrats will raise a point of order to strip the Medicaid ban on gender-affirming care in OBBB: "this is a private choice for adults. It should belong to them."

Excellent news
