Friends if you are a person with airline miles you don’t need, you can donate them to folks in Minneapolis to get home. I just spent 12,000 miles on a flight to get someone released from detention in El Paso home to tonight. It feels great. You can sign up here: www.standwithminnesota.com/skymiles

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

This morning at the Minnesota State Capitol. An ice sculpture that reads "PROSECUTE ICE". I'm told the organization behind the sculpture is Common Defense.

Billionaires are fearmongering about California’s proposed billionaire tax. Baloney. Just look at what happened when Massachusetts raised taxes on the rich.

I’m getting trained as a legal observer through Transgender Law Center and @rohnkat.bsky.social has offered the most inspiring welcome and call to action to get organized and work in community for justice. Thank you!

@thenation.com turned its website over to stories from #Gaza and dropped their paywall and this one really gutted me. Continuing to witness this genocide is so painful and so important. #NotInMyName #NeverAgainForAnyone

I might be a bureaucrat on the outside but I will always be a queer punk on the inside. DIY show culture and punk audiences are and should be part of the fabric of protest movements.

"Imagine if we actually followed the Constitution."

A federal judge is blocking the Trump administration from terminating Temporary Protected Status for Haitian immigrants living in the U.S., finding that statements made by White House officials demonstrate that racial bias played a part in decision-making.

10 days post snowfall; my street is still not clear enough to park on and #Providence is just starting to enter the “daily melt becomes nightly black ice” phase. I miss nice daily walks around the neighborhood! #BestRunCity

I wrote about some of my observations on collective decision making and how we can practice things that make use better at being in community. There has been a lot of grieving over her the past few weeks, metabolizing slowly into this. jennsteinfeld.substack.com/p/the-archit...

I’ve had this magnet for a decade and it never gets less relevant. Only venture capitalists can play with this balloon. 🎈 (Hilarious purchased at the Broad in LA) New words: #capitalist #play #balloon

Since we are living in @digitalhellworld.bsky.social we can at least try to protect ourselves and each other. @eff.org has a great offering on Thursday. Know your rights so you know when you’re being infringed!

I just heard @eliothiggins.bsky.social talk about verification, deliberation, and accountability on @onthemedia.bsky.social and came home and read the article, and now I want to connect about the human technology of verification for a paper. Help connect us internet!

It is currently 8:36 AM in the UK. I am spending the day in a meeting and taking an 8 PM flight home. Somehow I land in Boston at 10:30 PM for a total of 48.5 hours wheels up to wheels down. For now in a Wildfang suit, thrifted French cuff shirt and cufflinks, found scarf, determination.

I’m on a 2 day jaunt to the UK to disrupt the wealth management industry, so I decided to lean in to the Thrifted Dandy esthetic. Schoolboy blazer and French cuff dress shirt procured on Poshmark, gifted thrifted scarf and pocket square, estate sale pansy lapel pin. #ButchDandy #OOTD #TDOV

Made good use of my time at the @justeconomy.bsky.social #JustEconomy2025 conference by working on my #ResistHat, doing a 27 year glow-up visit to Capitol Hill w @magaziner.house.gov, and getting to know my @localreturn.bsky.social compatriots better. Bringing home so much info! #KnitSky 🧶

If you’re not familiar with the term “network state” now is a great time to familiarize yourself.

You probably don’t know that #Welding is my #QueerRoot. That scene in #Flashdance where Jennifer Beals takes off her helmet & shakes out all that hair was everything to this Pittsburgh kid. So I really enjoyed the #SFOAirport exhibit on #RosieTheRiveter. Joan of Arc pageant? Yes please!

I lost a dear friend in January, days before she died we had made a plan for ice cream today while I was in her area. In her honor I had a double scoop in a waffle cone in view of the Bay Bridge. I think she would approve. I love you and miss you Court.

#SuitButch day 2: handmade K-Zao suit, thrifted Thomas Pink pink, purple, and white striped French cuff shirt, circus print silk scarf w a half Windsor knot, college ruled pocket square, Prince and Bowie riding a pink unicorn lapel pin. #QueerStyle and #EnbyVisibility is #Resistance.

I used to be a daily #SuitButch but now that it’s an occasional thing it’s a lot more fun. (H/t to @dieworkwear.bsky.social 4 style tips!) Handmade K-Zao suit, thrifted Thomas Pink shirt, Trafalgar naiad braces, and pink pocket square, gifted blue silk scarf, gifted flower pin. #OOTD #QueerStyle

It’s #WomensHistoryMonth! We asked our Director of Strategic Partnerships, @jennsteinfeld.bsky.social, “How does #wealth inequality affect you as a woman?” Tell us about your experiences with #finances and wealth #inequality, as a #woman, in the comments below ⬇️

My travel schedule this year doesn’t leave room for traditional #Purim fun and #Antizionist stuff can be hard to find on the road so I’m drinking #Tequila in the Charlotte airport in a #Hamantaschen hat watching fire trucks flood the tarmac. I’m sure #EverythingIsFine. I think Esther would approve.

It’s a great time to call your Senators and tell them you expect them to vote NO for cloture and NO on the continuing resolution, basically a short term budget bill that locks in some bad stuff.

Good morning! Time change side effect is I’m up for the sun rising over my neighbor’s house again. These times are making me appreciate #SmallJoys again. What’s getting you through?

Freaking FINALLY got these #BrainlessSocks off my needles and onto my feet. It’s my favorite travel pattern because it’s, well, brainless, but sometimes that means a lil #knitting project takes way longer than necessary. But don’t worry I have another pair on needles! What are you making? #KnitSky

Just checked my watch and it’s #CuteBatOclock. Having a friend rewrite this meme for me to be #nonbinary inclusive yet specific to my interests made me feel really loved. How are you loving up on the #Queer, #Trans, and #Enby folks in your life? And/or how are you celebrating #Bats?

I’m trying not to make this a cesspool of horrors but this is really scary. Homeland Security detaining and executing an extraordinary rendition order for someone with a legal green card for engaging in peaceful protest is really really bad. There should be nonpartisan outrage and action!

When you don’t feel like getting going, make your #OOTD a bright sweater and take a selfie in your friend’s teal bathroom. Pretty Snake argyle cat sweater; Pushcart Judaica hamantaschen hat; Urban Body Jewelry earrings; scratches by my nibblings. #QueerStyle #BuyLocal #ShopSmall #FitCheck

Some days are an embarrassment of riches and today’s #OOTD reflects that. @nooworks.bsky.social painters pants in the most incredible print, #MeMade #FairfieldShirt in Joann flannel (RIP), Cats Against Catcalls crew neck, keffiyeh, #MeMade socks. Off for some somatic work for facing fear! 🧶🧵🪡

I don’t know why it just occurred to me today that I could wear this gifted @nooworks.bsky.social turtleneck with the matching jumpsuit but I am real excited about it! #MeMade #Handknit armwarmers and socks, Muffy Brandt witch finger necklace, gifted cashmere pompom hat round out #OOTD. #Knitsky 🧶

It was a heck of a week but I took a little time out for a program called Process as Power and crafting in community and caught this snap in the museum bathroom. Pretty Snake Bone Church sweatshirt; Savage x Fenty sweatpants; keffiyeh; KN-95; mutual support; gratitude. #fitcheck #ootd

The invite to a tea party in support of RI’s Semiquincentennial (250th) made me think “what hat should I wear?” Vintage 1940s black straw with pearl pins, thrifted silk beaded vest, black French cuff shirt, thrifted fringed black jeans, vagina dentata scarf, revolutionary heart. #FitCheck #ootd

Taking this #FitCheck to the school board in support of LGBTQIA+ staff. #OOTD me-made #BelvedereWaistcoat featuring local drag queens’ hands; Wildfang eyeball buttondown; locally dyed silk scarf; black jeans; studded belt; energy vampire crystal; queer rage. #AllBlackEverything with a pop of color.

What Trans women are doing in the bathroom. #lgbtqia

Took a little social break because ugh and OMG but my #OOTD pleased me so it’s a Monday #WFH #fitcheck featuring a gifted thrifted ska Talbots cardigan; Rihanna fast fashion sweatpants; thrifted skull print button down; my fav #MeMade socks in #Zauberball 🧶Tropical Fish, mischief.

A selection of #cats from the Hemingway House in Key West. My Florida vacation has been a total delight despite my anxieties. Many public restrooms have been used without incident. #TravelWhileTrans

Here is my actual #valentine from this year, celebrating my love of bats and cheese; a good reminder from @wynwoodwalls.bsky.social, and the #sunrise this morning over the sea in the Florida Keys. I am off both news and the greater good until Tuesday. Taking a deep breath to regroup and reset.

Staff retreat day 3, so glad to be able to bring this #OOTD to work. Fav @nooworks.bsky.social business pants, Hex The Patriarchy tee, Pretty Snake linen camp shirt, keffiyeh, puffy humidity hair, “Destroy All Men Who Abuse Their Power” fanny pack by defunct feminist art collective The Bettys.

Staff retreat #OOTD: @nooworks.bsky.social linen garden suit romper in a wild Ruth Mora print; keffiyeh; lightweight black cardi with a crocheted skull back that feels like a hug from the friend who gave it to me, @toppleandburn.bsky.social F the Patriarchy earrings; 🍒 converse. #EatTheRich

Celebrating you, women in science!

Ok I was real nervous about coming to Florida but this view from my morning run really helped melt that away. Also consuming zero news today.

As a #nonbinary person travel can be complicated and traveling to hostile territory more so. #OOTD my fav @nooworks.bsky.social pants, memorial hoodie for the best smile, keffiyeh, straw hat from my 83 year old friend, black glitter Docs, mask for collective care, apprehension. #FitCheck

Really leaning on this reminder lately. #EvenIfImScared thank you to the original artist who drew a little girl in a tutu and ballet flats and to the tattoo artist who immediately got what I was looking for and made the most wonderful adjustments. We can be scared and still do hard things.

I’m going to Miami for work and the Keys for fun and trying to finish #sewing these @patternfantastique.bsky.social #TerraPants in a vintage #tropical #pinup Alexander Henry print. Still have a waistband and belt loops and cuffs to finish but my bags are packed and flight isn’t until 3 🤞🏼🤞🏼🧵🪡 #SewSky
