It's all fun and games until a cop handles a Tylenol gelcap with no gloves and within seconds their socks are bothering them.

i also want to note that "i don't want children to have to undergo genital inspections" is an extremely easy argument to make and the fact that elected liberals cannot manage it is because they are either incompetent or complicit and i do not give a shit which

I love this so much I FEEL IT IN MY BONES 😆

I get that it's very challenging for people to wrap their brains around this, but it's worth re-iterating: Musk and Trump decided a few months ago to kill millions globally by destroying USAID in a fit of pique, which has almost destroyed the global aid sector, and nothing is replacing that money.

Here's something I always forget that most people don't know: finding & paying for your own attorney is the only realistic option for someone detained by ICE. There's no appointed counsel system, & limited non-profits who can only take a few at a time (if at all). These cases are a *lot of work*

The “hey ICE masks are for cucks” slogan is definitely fucking annoying as someone who still religiously masks in public. I know slogans don’t have a lot of nuance, but.

Yesterday, in LA, pre-dawn, a bunch of ICE agents were assembling in the gated parking lot of a federal building, preparing to go out and do their kidnappings, when a protester rolled the gate to the parking lot closed and locked it with a bike lock, locking dozens of agents in.

happy labor day

In honor of sandwich guy getting out of his legal pickle, here is the original video synced with Freedom - George Michael 1990.

Just saw someone refer to the “male loneliness epidemic” as the “male consequences epidemic” and I just think that’s so much more accurate.

The Toxic Avenger is clearing medical debt as marketing for the movie.

what do you mean i can't bring this on the plane, it's my emotional support Starstruck

Colleagues: 🎼 If you have a trans patient, no you don’t 👏🏻👏🏻 If you have a migrant patient, no you don’t 👏🏻👏🏻 If you really really care, your minority patients are not there If you have a vulnerable patient, NO you DON’T 👏🏻👏🏻 🎶

This is brilliant work from Katie. I've already forwarded it to a few women who I thought could use this kind of well-researched comprehensive advice. Highly recommended as a resource on HRT, especially for folks who are either doing DIY or weighing the pros and cons of heading in that direction.

my grandpa is watching Blue Bloods and christ, this show is just bad not just the copaganda, but the acting is bad, the writing is bad, the pacing is bad, the tension is… nonexistent? i’m sure it’s the equivalent of mashed potatoes for some people but goddamn

i think it is hard for some people to really their heads around the reality that kennedy is staunchly anti-vaccine and thinks that people should suffer through disease and that those who die deserved it and that those who survive are a better order of human being

one of the worst things about ADHD is how i always put off the worst and most physical tasks until the day before my 36 hour work weekend. can’t wait to hobble around for the next 3 days because i needed to clean my oven so it wouldn’t catch fire anymore and i’m sick of cooking in the toaster oven

I'm muting this because there are only so many hundred times a guy can bear having the words "What in the ACTUAL fuck" in his mentions but I will note the original CTV article is fairly scant on details, this French interview has more details: www.noovo.info/video/je-me-... here's a rough summary:

A Quebec fisherman who was fishing 15 kilometers north of the US border was essentially kidnapped by US Border Patrol, who capsized his boat and dragged him to an American prison cell. In any normal time this'd be quite the international incident, y'know? www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

Diving into game design, Daggerheart, Dungeons & Dragons, genre, and what makes a fantasy heartbreaker good enough to break your heart, @lincodega.com writes about their impressions of the new tabletop RPG from Darrington Press and comes away impressed.

More pictures besides my ridiculous face. I’m leaving out group shots, but you can see those on @spryfox.bsky.social’s posts. Cannot stress enough how much i love this game and how gorgeous it is.

This game has been an amazing antidote to The Horrors. If you’re looking for a cozy game with community, Spirit Crossing is lovely and you should join us! (Come to tell me how much i look like my dad, lmao, stay for the amazing Ghibli vibes)

So, here it is. Thanks to a new state law that was NEVER DEBATED, Indiana University has committed itself to abolishing majors in African-American/African Diaspora Studies: American Studies; Art History; French; Italian; Religious Studies etc. DOZENS of majors. www.ipm.org/news-section...

Trans women are biologically female Cis women are ✨️valid✨️🤗

When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

The Alt National Park Service account calls itself the official "resistance" team of the US National Park Service. With 887k followers, is one of the biggest accounts on Bluesky. It is the 11 most followed account according to some trackers. This thread will dive into its activity. 🧵 1/x.

new meme just dropped

YOU DON'T SAY "The consensus of the evidence supports that the treatments are effective in terms of mental health, psychosocial outcomes, & the induction of body changes consistent with the affirmed gender in pediatric [trans] patients. The evidence also supports that the treatments are safe ..."

anyway I know four years can feel like an instant and a lifetime, but I cried when I got my Covid vaccine in Spring 2021 and again when our kid, born in Fall 2020, finally got his in Summer 2022. This is just so ethically devastating but it also feels oddly personal given what we all lived through!

One of the absolute best people I know, and have known for many years, is looking for a housemate. Anyone in MN or looking to be in MN, please take note! (Also included: extremely cute animals.)

Have you commented yet? so important to do the thing. (This thread has useful info.)

This is so fucking good

Comment is open thru May 23 to vehemently oppose these vaccine limits and voice your support for much more robust covid vaccine development and access: peoplescdc.substack.com/p/vaccine-ac...

This was the thing that broke me today, tipped me right into rage tears. These ghouls. These fucking ghouls. These absolute monsters.

This is an amazing read. I think a lot about our cultural desire to annihilate deviant bodies — and to punish those who reject the promise of a ‘cure’ for existing.

‘The reporter's manufactured conflict primarily hinges on some Zionist crackpot with a Twitter account and an ongoing defamation lawsuit against her, and yet she receives the benefit of anonymity as well as a helpful ally.’

tell me you’re ADHD without telling me you’re ADHD

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

We should understand this for what it is: an effort to build public consent for the president to ignore the Supreme Court. abcnews.go.com/Politics/jus...

I can not say this loudly enough - STOP LETTING THEM CARRY YOUR NEIGHBORS AWAY. Get in the habit of saying no, and getting in the way.

Hey, who wants something nice? So I was on tour this month, and when I was doing my event for the Princeton University Library and the Princeton Public Library, I ended up at the graveyard, where I found this gravestone:

I think one of the more depressing things about this shit is seeing the administration shit on their base (see also Veterans Day and the military parade bs) and yet.

This is a gut punch. One of the very best of humanity and a person who was so important to me and so many others. variety.com/2025/music/n...

In case we've lost the plot - this is a reproductive justice fight. Does she take the baby, putting them both in danger? Does she leave the baby, putting them in different danger? Also, absolutely they are doing this to feed the adoption pipeline. This is a strong arm attempt to steal this baby.
