Trans people need abortion care. If your abortion advocacy is trans-exclusionary, it's bad advocacy.

My partner Olive is in the last 16 hours of fundraising for their short film It Was A Beautiful Machine! We have about $1500 left to go, and you can get a lovely process zine(with some of my art in it)! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bel...

we’re back up and running! we’re doing a two-stage approach with a screener and then i will send a one-time link to participants. if you have had a miscarriage since march 2024 and otherwise meet requirements as listed on the flyer, please consider participating in my survey (go.uic.edu/leavestudy)

Stop using this shit, please💥

Laura Belle McDaniel (2016) - Sleek vetiver-limned musk with tobacco absolute, smoky vanilla, carnation, and lavender. #BPAL #SOTD just UGH so good. I should keep this in rotation this summer.

Projection night 2: it’s beetle time This project could still definitely use your support!! Help us here givebutter.com/KenzoMural

It's the annual Ask a Manager salary survey! Every year, vastly fewer men fill this out than women. Men, please share your salary info (anonymously) so we have concrete salary comparisons to inform pay negotiations and fight the pay gap

How many ways to say this must end.

A beautiful statement: "meaningful safety comes from your neighbors having what they need." Of course today I am thinking of global neighbors as well as local neighbors. What if we actually tried to take care of each other, instead of police and punish and dehumanize?

need a new word for the type of 21st century grief you feel when you find a very stupid meme that would have had your buddy wheeze-laughing. i would have crushed it with this one:

Tea Leaves, Vanilla Bean, and Incense Smoke (2023) #SOTD #BPAL I could swear this used to smell like black tea, now it's distinctly a white tea scent. Maybe I mixed up my tea leaves.

i completely forgot tori covered this from steely dan even tho at the time i moved heaven and earth to get a copy of it (international b-side for 'spark' along with her gorgeous 'have yourself a merry little christmas')

Well yes

Actually we should just give citizenship to every undocumented person in the United States who wants it. Walking over an imaginary line isn't some great moral atrocity. Making people live in the shadows as a permanent underclass absolutely IS.

Many suggest government’s role is providing assistance to people in (a) crisis, limiting our vision of public goods and the state. Like Ruth Wilson Gilmore said, "Public goods should never be means tested. That's the entire point of a public good! And should be as permanent as anything imaginable.“

People really dislike folks questioning AI and it's usage. I watched a lot of the back and forth about it yesterday and something stuck with me. Ppl say theirs no point in being against AI because "it's in everything and everywhere" but so is racism, and I'll forever complain about both

I got mad enough about the removal of St. Louis’s bump outs that I spoke to @stlmag.bsky.social about it. I am deeply concerned that the loss of bump outs could turn into a loss of life. Will Mayor Spencer “own this” then? www.stlmag.com/news/bumpout...

The US normalized double-tap strikes in the first drone wars, during the Obama regime. It's been a *standard* war crime for the American military for nearly twenty years.

My friend has to leave the apartment tonight and doesn’t have a place lined up please help them 😭😭😭😭 www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-dis...

If your response to someone daring to hope for happiness and acceptance is to shriek threats and berate them, you have been poisoned and you're already dead.

KHJN posted an urgent call for donations on Insta and FB and I'm sharing some slides here. It's a good example of what happens when orgs don't have the funds they need. They still have about $4k left to unlock in their quadruple match; consider helping them get there: fund.nnaf.org/fundraiser/7...

somehow ended up with the bookends of this 2025 fundraiser series from @bpal.bsky.social based on The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran: On Love was released in January and On Death in December. the former is my #SOTD and it's a stunner! blackphoenixalchemylab.com/product-cate...

Oh shit, it’s Wednesday. I don’t know why but Wednesday is such a slippery day of the week. It’s the eel goo of days.

I am descended from stolen people who were forced to work stolen land, creating generational wealth for white settlers who still dominate and oppress my people. How am I to take their claims about "birthright citizenship" seriously?

Birthright citizenship is one of those topics I can't think too deeply about, because it really emphasizes the contradictions of being a descendant of both enslaved Africans and indigenous people in a settler colony built on dispossession, displacement, and chattel slavery

Happy day after TDOV 🏳️‍⚧️ KHJN is an organization that provides support for Kentuckians in accessing gender-affirming health care! It's another quadruple match day for them, meaning I'm potentially only $45 away from my goal! fund.nnaf.org/fundraiser/7...

not a joke: KHJN is quadrupling your donations today so if you wanna do a magic trick like make your $5 become $20, today is a great day to make that happen!!

This is the way - if you hand people masks as they enter they will use them! Get a bulk order or get with your mask bloc!

We've got witch bits yes we do we've got witch bits HOW BOUT YOU

The making of my newest piece, entitled "I Have Taught Myself to Dance Alone," part of a series of works examining the experience of having long COVID through the myth of the minotaur. #queerart #covidisnotover #covidconscious

Just saw this poem shared on insta and was happy to find @nicothepoet.bsky.social here too

DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN 🏳️‍⚧️ #art #tdov #transart

"The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight." I made a "Yellow Wallpaper" piece back in 2017, but I re-read the story over the weekend and wanted to try again. Much happier with this version 🖤

Fascists want us to believe that they can weaponize any actions we take against us. If we feel like inaction is the only "safe" choice, it's easier them to escalate their violence. The reality is that almost anything we do to oppose them is more protective than doing nothing.

Thread #FreeThemAll Abolition is the only way forward

Abortion is popular, and voters consistently show up to defend it. This week, Brigitte Amiri, Deputy Director at @aclu.org’s Reproductive Freedom Project, sits down to talk with us about recent reproductive freedom amendments, equal rights amendments, and current litigation around the U.S.
