@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Jul LGBTQnation GLAAD finds Hollywood continues reducing the number of LGBTQ+ characters; even worse, GLAAD found ZERO trans characters in 225 films last year and ZERO LGBTQ+ ones in animated and family films. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/07/holl...

Some of us thought the Pod bros were absolute garbage trash from day 1 and coincidentally we were the same people who thought Platner was garbage trash from day 1 and maybe you should all start fucking listening to us.

Please dont use Northsky’s pronouns labeler. Northsky is a transmedicalist bastion that uses their moderation labelers to try to mulch trans people who won’t sign on to their transphobia Northsky directors have condoned doxing trans people they dislike before. Dont trust them or give them your info

It tells you everything you need to know about the state of British society when the Anne Frank Trust has to step in because of the dehumanising attacks on the LGBT community. What a disgrace we’ve become

Dune is trash, but I might bother seeing part 3 in theaters

I really wish trans allies would fight as hard for us as those who hate us fight to eliminate us from society. The disparity there is why they're winning.

Fuck y'all, ketchup and mustard and dill relish. A hot dog is just an excuse to mainline vinegar, tf you making it out like there's cuisine in there?

Mitch McConnell is getting more health care privacy as a corpse than women seeking reproductive care

there is no weirder Bluesky decision than *checks notes* suggesting another progressive candidate

“Women want one thing, and it’s—“ “What about the male loneliness crisis? What about redemption arcs? What about the working class?” “—for men to listen.”

"I believe the people of Maine deserve better than Susan Collins, and so even though I had some misgivings about Toht, I ignored every click and whirr of my moral compass to cheer him on."

I know Bluesky is really bad when it comes to news from outside US/EU, and you all hate Twitter (me too), but I need to give this a shot I don't see anyone outside queer Indonesian friends talk about this, most people here are bigots and now they're encouraged by the govt Don't just Like, SHARE.

no one should talk to the NYT until they retract their clearly biased and transphobic coverage of trans youth and our community.

every time, they lie every time, it was murder

How long has Newsom's press office been using this crowned photo?

Disappointed to learn that so many of my friends, avowed leftists and Democratic Socialists, have been having secret phone conversations with Mitch McConnell. Do better.

The July 4th weekend was a reprieve but now I can hear the beating of his hideous heart yet again

the elites are people who who think you shouldn't have nazi tattoos and sexually assault people; real Mainers are New York-based Substackers

Trump’s comments on Platner June 6th: He’s a pig. Trump’s comments on Platner after the new allegations: It’s really a question of whether or not you believe the woman. A lot of people say big falsehoods

In the UK, you can be arrested, charged, prosecuted and convicted if you do not disclose that you are trans before sex but a cis man doesn't have to declare if he has an STI.

Literally Bluesky is full of people who were willing to walk out the door over a Nazi problem, so yeah

It really seems like "contract killer with nazi tattoos" should have been enough

One thing I don’t think men understand is that rape and assault are so ubiquitous—and so perpetually immune from consequence or recognition—that many women learn to talk about these incidents as of they’re mere inconveniences. We are not allowed to treat them with more gravity.

what today has taught me is that for many men, a certain amount of abuse of women is always acceptable. sure, there's an amount that isn't, but that's up to them to decide, and if you try to question them, well you're just a crazy fucking bitch aren't you.

It must be hard to write James Bond villains who are undeniably evil but who *aren't* underwriting the entire intelligence sector.

Fuck yeah

/rolling my eyes and stomping around like Paul Rudd in Wet Hot American Summer "Sorry I said the lying sexual assault troop shithead was 'the final and long overdue reckoning for Smoothgroin Liberalism' on X dot com."

I don’t understand how people can run for office knowing they have insane baggage and/or crimes. Like I spent the entire campaign expecting AIPAC to somehow dig up my middle school livejournal fanfic account. I prepared my family for it. I’m still amazed it didn’t happen.

Antisemitism is a real and growing issue in American politics and culture, but the fact that American Jewish organizations like the ADL and AJC went harder on Mamdani than on Platner is part of why we are making no headway in fighting it.

A new survey finds that American Jews are just as likely as all Americans to believe Israel is guilty of genocide, and that more American Jews approve of Mamdani than of Netanyahu. apnews.com/article/isra...

your metric shouldn’t be “good stance on palestine” or “wants people to have healthcare.” these are very accessible positions for any opportunist to take to get where they want to go. start at antifascism and work your way out from there. it is simple and as good a guide as you can get.

honestly I'm never not going to rag on Platner boosters. tf were you thinking?

I have a general rule of thumb: never, ever compare a white man to Emmett Till or Dr. King. Especially if they haven’t been murdered. And especially if they have a Nazi tattoo

Just remember that if you make a joke about Mitch McConnell, the people who love and respect him might see it. So make it really funny because they suck too.

Some people would RATHER be SMUG than WRONG

look, bluesky isn't the maine electorate, and maybe we aren't representative of the general democratic electorate but we sure were right about this guy, so

"platner demonstrates the disconnect between the online fart sniffers and real American communities" ok but we're right? he sucks and is nazi adjacent? if he's tolerable to voters fuck them, and fuck every opinion peddler downplaying how awful he is?

I have edited a lot of sexual-assault-accusation articles, and this one easily clears every veracity check: contemporaneous emails with her therapist, a boyfriend who knew, a woman she warned—all before Platner ran for office. Good on Politico for nailing it, and on Jenny Racicot for speaking up.

I don't think Platner is a plant. he's just your run-of-the-mill misogynistic, racist leftish dudebro.

this is the official scooby doo account

I have to Agree, Significant Changes are Needed….

I want you to ask yourself if you'd be speaking like this if the liberal justices had voted to gut birthright citizenship with an accompanying opinion explaining why the argument was bad.
