Chag pesach sameach!

Long COVID is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. New research from Karolinska Institutet shows people with Long COVID have a higher risk of heart issues like arrhythmias and coronary disease—even if they weren’t hospitalised during their initial infection.

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility - but it shouldn't be just one day.

And in horrifying news, Idaho's governor has signed the felony bathroom ban, with 5 year penalties for second offense bathroom usage, into law. This is the most significant criminalization of trans people to date. On trans day of visibility no less. It will require a new "Do not travel" warning.

if you don’t like the process of writing then don’t be a fucking writer, it’s not that complicated

Hey Maine leftists, here is the candidate you should be supporting and campaigning for.

Whenever someone uses the food making machine on Star Trek you notice they don’t high five each other and yell I AM A PROFESSIONAL CHEF

Oh I’m so glad! My position is Mira bellwether trans women pizza stays trans women because that’s the point & the tribute , but for the past three years I’ve suggested to trans men to start their own, and there seems to be some movement on a trans day of having a nice snack for everyone

Christians when Jews have very strong mitzvahs relating to abortion lol

In an instant, our only shelter was destroyed. We are now homeless, living on the cold streets with no protection. We urgently need 100 Euros to buy a new tent to shield my family from this harsh reality. Please, don't let us sleep on the pavement. Help us find cover chuffed.org/project/161883

For just 3 days, can we help Palestinians stay connected to the internet? Crips for eSIMs for Gaza UK supports about 200 Palestinians with internet every day—but the project is out of funds. £5 keeps someone connected for a month. Can you make it monthly? 118/500 by Saturday. bit.ly/esimsUK

People use autism “awareness” to talk over the autistic people they deem “high functioning” and even play the victim cards

Fundies: RESPECT OUR RELGIOUS RIGHTS Courts: ok Jews: RESPECT OUR RELIGIOUS RIGHTS Courts: ok Fundies: wait no not like that

Fun fact, most catholics get yelled at by the pope exactly zero times in their whole lives but Censures Georg here has managed it like five times in six years

Using people's chosen names brings glory to you and your house.

I just learned the phrase “dark empath” and oh my g-d saneists make me want to leave this planet more than my own brain makes me want that and that’s fucking impressive

I loathe the increased reporting on eugenics research lightly coded as “prevention”. PSA there’s really nothing coded about not wanting certain people to exist. #neurodiversity #AutismAcceptanceMonth

ChatGPT is not a tool. “But I’m disabled and—“ NO. SHUT UP. If your “accessibility tool” is causing religious psychosis, stealing artists’ work, accelerating anthropogenic climate change, and poisoning majority Black neighborhoods, you shouldn’t be using it.

I really don't think it can be understated that, if she sticks to this, it *automatically* changes the way this conversation will be had in 2028.

Judge Randolph Moss ruled that Trump's executive order to cease funding for NPR and PBS is unlawful and unenforceable!

Hey so this seems bad

The Supreme Court's "conversion therapy" decision today is indefensible on its own terms. A ton of medical regulations restrict speech on the basis of "viewpoint." Nobody thinks they're unconstitutional. This court just subjects pro-LGBTQ protections to special hostility. slate.com/news-and-pol...

This is so real The racialized and disabled members or my faculty union have been frequently tone policed and demanded conditional solidarity for the sake of unity when there is so much racism and ableism. What it does to us (people like me who are not white nor abled) is persistent moral injury

Considering a new trans day between TDOV and TDOR called Cis Cunts Fucking Do Something Day

Employers should cover work-related travel and other expenses directly rather than require employees to float their employer an interest-free loan while subjecting them to a byzantine reimbursement process that will take at least a month and entail multiple rounds of paperwork.

Reupping for the afternoon crowd, especially in light of the Supreme Court's extremely shitty decision this morning: Many trans youth turn to the internet for sex and gender education, PLEASE make sure one of the few resources providing accurate, inclusive, non-AI info is able to continue that work.

We only had a tiny group for last weekend's Disability Justice workshop, so if you were unable to attend, but could benefit from engaging with the presentation slides on your own time, please do so, as Alice Wong's legacy deserves to be celebrated by all, & writing can offer an insightful option!✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾

Cursed fucking headline

Extremely fucked up. They should be getting at least two bsky.app/profile/davi...

by far the worst tendency on this platform is its tendency to interpret a description of something that happened or is happening as an endorsement of that thing I have been reading Mark on conversion therapy cases for years and he has always been very clear about how awful it is

‼️

"oops i pissed off cis people on trans visibility day, lol no alt text because i can't be bothered" As a blind person trying to follow a conversation, FUCK YOU. Do it or don't do it but don't be a fucking asshole.

Star Trek figured this out thirty years ago. It's not hard. Even an old, drunk Klingon got it.

a reminder that HR 7661, the national book banning bill, has passed the house education committee. the federal government is trying to tell YOU and YOUR kids what you're allowed to read. Call your rep NOW to tell them to vote NO on HR 7661 Action Link to share: action.everylibrary.org/callhr7661

When Iran starts executing people under a giant Star of David in the name of all Jews, or when they're executing people with American weapons provided by going around Congress, then I will be just as loud about opposing them as I am opposing Israel. But right now it's ISRAEL doing those things.

Get this shit right sane people, you’re the danger to us!

Madness will not grant you the keys to the kingdom & the mad are not kings. The mad are cast out from the kingdom & trampled underfoot.

I’m writing to you with a heavy heart. 💔 I support 12 members of my family in Gaza, and we struggle every day just to survive I am trying to provide my mother’s medication which costs $400 If you are able to help or even just share this post it would mean a lot to me.🙏 chuffed.org/project/help... 🔗

Being a progressive and supporting the Israeli government is like being a progressive and supporting the Trump administration. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever unless your politics are nothing but vibes.

fucking superman over here

What this tells me is that BS execs have a fundamental misunderstanding of why people are against using AI. They really exist in their own ideological bubble.

This is disgusting does Israel really need yet another mechanism for killing Palestinians

We’re not idiots, Governor, and you know as well as we do that this is not about “the children.” It’s stripping anonymity from children and adults. Do you know who loves getting this information? The authoritarian government you claim to hate. And you KNOW they will use this data as a weapon.

Really not loving how basically every politician on the planet is jumping on board with these types of age verification laws, tbh!

This sucks shit JB! Rethink! These laws are not designed to protect children but allow companies to censor things they don’t like! Like queer people’s existences! And sex workers! None of these laws protect anyone!
