guys it PUB DAY for the amazing MEGA MILK by the amazing @meganmilks.bsky.social. i have been so privileged to work on this at feminist press: a book that chooses milk as its aleph and through it reveals to you a whole queer galaxy. Here is an excerpt check it outt! feministpress.org/blogs/news/d...

@meganmilks.bsky.social follows their fascination with cows (and milk) to an animal sanctuary: “I’m just dipping my toes into this world, I remind myself. The prospect of this kind of research is daunting, as my life is so removed from farm culture.”

New Episode Time! The Poisoning Ep. 2 is all about cows. @meganmilks.bsky.social contributed a report from the field! Also it is about what cows have to do with opioid manufacturing.

There’s a Project 2025 tracker to follow their progress and to see what’s ahead. The project Trump and the GOP disavowed because it was so unpopular and then began immediately to put in place. www.project2025.observer

The State Department was set to buy $400 million worth of armored Teslas from Elon Musk. But after a report from Drop Site News exposed the massive conflict of interest, the department quietly deleted the word “Tesla” and changed the $400 million line item to a generic “armored electric vehicles.”

Trump and the GOP spent the entire Biden admin acting Ike they would return to power in 2024, including prepping documents detailing exactly how they would govern. Dems should act accordingly.

this woman clerked for Antonin Scalia and is an active member of the Federalist Society, truly insane that the trump admin is too far gone for even someone like that

hard to read this any other way than that death of lgbtq people is the explicit goal

BREAKING: A federal court temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order aiming to restrict access to gender-affirming medical care for transgender people under age 19 nationwide. This is a major victory for our freedom to access life-saving care.

I got mad at the New York Times after their editorial board released an opinion piece condemning Trump's anti-trans EOs and I decided to write about how the paper of record laundered transphobia into the mainstream and paved the road for Trump's transphobia. www.patreon.com/posts/nyt-ed...
