Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity Saying “be more productive!” To those who are struggling devalues human life. It aids fascism.

"it would feel so good to cup my breasts during intimate moments alone or with a partner" is one hundred percent a good reason to transition and anyone who says you need more or different reasons is trying to harm you

It’s not enough to be twenty minutes away by train from my friends I need them to live in the same building

i am not a violent dog

If you’re a slur you gotta get out in the real world and hang out with the other slurs. Even or sometimes especially if they’re not the same slur(s) as you

Potato says hi

THIS! But also if you are going to the food bank for the first time, give them a call, see if they have a website and what they require because with the influx during COVID some do require proof of need.

That smart and educated Black Lady tried to tell you that Trumps name appears 300+ times in Project 2025 (but he knew nothing about it) and the FAQ page in P-2025 lists “Government Shutdown” as a topic area…sound familiar?? But you all made every excuse and still do about why she was not

every trans woman for president

🧵Listen up white folks. Natives have been yelling since invasion and only now are you listening but you still aren't hearing or comprehending. Native existence is resistance because we're surviving an ongoing genocide that you can no longer ignore because it's starting to happen to you. 1/6

You need to learn not to center yourselves in every situation and look around, actually comprehend what others have lived through already. These are systems you upheld, either consciously or via complicity. It doesn't matter which because 2/6

Black and Brown people paid the price you weren't willing to and, by the looks of it, still aren't ready to. Everything you do needs to be an act of resistance, no matter how small, because if we're going to make it through, and we can, it's going to be together building a new system 3/6

that won't cater to your comfort but will be equitable for all. Anything less is a return to a system whose only outcome could have been where we are today. There are no more allies. There are only co conspirators. So get with the program and 4/6

start putting everything you have the capacity to on the line because we already have since birth when our skin became weaponized against us as yours offered you protection. That means no potlucks, bouncy houses, or door prizes. It means true, actionable, measurable change.5/6

If you don't know what that looks like then you're still not hearing anything at all. 6/6

If you see people stealing food during this government shut down, no the fuck you didn’t.

we should call trans women, cool women, because i think they are cool

repost if you support nazi suicides

*blinks Indigenously* Hitler was greatly inspired by what the so-called United States did to Black and Indigenous people. It's a settler colonial genocidal state. This is how this country has been since the settlers arrived in this land. Of course they become nazis/don't hate nazis.

it's because white people view racism as an interpersonal issue rather than a societal one, so asking them to look inward at how they perpetuate it is an attack on the self rather than an interrogation into their own views of people of color.

✨ Artist! Quote with long hair art! ✨ This is a perfect prompt for me because my oldest OC was designed with the most impossibly long hair

trans men are biological males and trans women r biological females <3

Don't go around asking a Native person talking about their experience what they do "for the tribes" when you haven't done anything for us or the land. Protecting and honoring the land is at the core of "honoring the tribes"

In so many cases, the solution to a frustrating interaction online is to take a deep breath and remind yourself that the person being deranged to you is not someone whose opinion you would care about if they screamed it in your face on the street, and you're deforming your nature by listening at all

tonight's AI discourse lightning round: 1. LLMs are not people and do not have rights; many real people's rights are being violated in the development and deployment of LLMs 2. if you're really attached to using fake slurs for robots you might want to examine why that is

We cannot be comfortable if our comfort comes from the suffering of others!

Wait, the mets are a baseball team? I thought "love da mets" was talking about your metamours

I hope I live long enough to see the pendulum swing back to kindness and hope because I just can't fathom how this level of hatred and selfishness is sustainable.

I think it says a LOT about the privilege of not knowing or experiencing despair when you see folks experiencing addiction or homelessness and your first thought is how to punish them or how they don't deserve care or compassion. Had to go downtown today to see about help with my housing.

I'm finally understanding that the magic of Bluesky is that people can develop apps that access all the same content but with different moderation standards, meaning you don't have to give everything up to find a better social media! I think a lot of us just aren't used to that concept

welcome to bluesky: where the CEO makes fun of you for asking them for a crumb of moderation against bad actors

Looks like they might be deleting skeets that mention moderation being used as a tool of suppression. www.reddit.com/r/BlueskySoc...

It's wild when I can say this and mean it both personally and professionally. If you want me to do something, you have to TELL ME about it first. I can't just magically know you want me for something if nobody tells me.

quick while the government is shut down let’s all switch to metric

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

It's officially spooky month! Which means its good to start preparing psychologically for the great defrosting.

Troy Littledeer was fired by UKB for holding those in power to account. Now he needs community assistance for taking the hit for press freedom. Please help if you can and remember sharing is caring. www.gofundme.com/f/troys-need...

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

If Democrats cave on this, I will never, ever, ever, ever vote for them ever again. Ever.

imagine if trans people didn't need to beg for their fucking lives constantly and instead we could just be funny and hot and go to sleep at night without worrying about what threat morning will bring

The fundamental contradiction at the heart of Western exceptionalism is the seething, spitting hatred of the racialized Other whose exploitation Western society is built on. It's what leads to absurdities like asking the people whose labor powers your society to prove they're not burdens.

I hate having to keep tabs on the stupid shit politicians keep saying in this country just so I can be wary of what to look out for. Every time they open their mouths, I get so fucking angry that people actually fall for this shit.

you need to put evil women (preferably mothers) in your video game that you're developing right now. do it for me, i know you can. i believe in you.
