Making this post again now that it's daylight hours in NA: For anyone who shares a receipt of a donation here or in DMs to your local food bank I will match your donation to CAP OC to a max total of $1k

If we learn nothing else tonight, please PLEASE let's learn that the American people were NOT won over by an absolute firehose of the most vile dehumanization of trans people. Please @democrats.org, for the love of God and all that's holy, let's FINALLY start refusing to throw ANYone under ANY bus.

Making this post again now that it's daylight hours in NA: For anyone who shares a receipt of a donation here or in DMs to your local food bank I will match your donation to CAP OC to a max total of $1k

important reminder: food banks usually prefer money to direct food donations because they can buy at discounted rates check with your local food bank to be sure but now is the time to help out

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

I wish a very happy “fuck you” to everyone who thought throwing trans people under the bus was going to stop these lunatics Their goal has *always* been the eradication of the entire LGBTQ+ community, and they’re not gonna stop at Obergefell either This is why we fight for *everyone*

GDQ is proof you can be exceedingly and tremendously successful not just accepting folks but being proud and loud and loving trans folks. So many people believe in the same thing came together to raise over 2.4 mil for a great cause. Despite everything, we're Here Together. Trans Rights!

The day after publication of our article, Bisexual was added back to Stonewall National Monument, though the word is still removed from the History and Culture page.

To everyone affected by the recent Microsoft (and other) layoffs, you didn’t deserve this. Let’s be clear: the state of the industry right now is not your fault.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

Here are some tips for ways to “show up” when you aren’t able to show up in person, as well as suggestions for all of us for building more inclusive movements for social justice and human rights.

Oh that’s not what she meant? Sure seems like she said that, and until she definitively un-says it and is fired for suggesting it and all the troops are gone, I’m not cool with it.

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

noem saying thery're going to "liberate" california from its leaders seconds before federal law enforcement restrains and removes one of the state's senators from the room—like what else needs to be said

i think most white americans who have never been Policed don’t realize that you are always already a criminal. the second anyone with institutional power believes you to be, needs you to be, or wants you to be a criminal you are and always have been.

Timely reminder that the treatment for chemical weapons like tear gas and pepper spray is: 1) remove from active contamination (get them out of the cloud of teargas, remove outer layers of clothing if possible) 2) flush eyes with ONLY clean water. Wash skin and hair with water and soap.

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

Hey this is eugenics, in case anyone wasn't aware or needed a reminder.

hi, cis folks! it’s pride. you with us? cool. have you called your senators about the budget bill that’s trying to strip trans healthcare from people of all ages on medicaid or ACA plans? that’s like 20% of us & this is the govt we’re up against. find reps here reps.fyi tap the thread for scripts

This no-kill animal shelter is in desperate need of kitten food, kitten milk replacement, and other supplies. If you post a screenshot in my replies showing that you donated at least $10 (even as a Chewy gift card), I'll answer a style-related question for you. Donation info in their thread.

hi, cis folks! if you’re calling democratic reps about the maga murder budget, you should *specifically mention* it’s unacceptable to pass a bill blocking funding for lifesaving transition care FOR TRANS PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. if you want to stand with trans people, this is a big moment. 🧵 reps.fyi

Wow, sneaky and nasty.

We've got Bill Kristol saying abolish ICE and standing up for trans people, David Brooks quoting the communist manifesto, and Sen. Van Hollen forcing a dictator to give proof of life of a hostage in a death camp. Meanwhile, Dems like Newsom are doing podcasts with fascists. Make it make sense.

You all need to treat Harry Potter IP like we’re treating the Tesla brand.

JK Rowling is currently celebrating, and has been financially supporting this case for the YEARS it’s been going. This is why you can’t “separate art from artist” as she’s actively using your dollars to fund hate. Hope yall enjoy your wizard show. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/w...

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

The road to fascism is paved with bitches telling you “it’s not that serious”

When DOGE cuts aviation safety and planes crash, when Medicaid is demolished and your community hospital closes, when trans care is banned through pulling funding, when Musk subverts democracy… These dems own it. Schumer Fetterman Cortez Masto Durbin King Shaheen Gillibrand Schatz Hassan Peters

I can't remember the last time I saw an article just focus on this. Not that they've bent the truth or misrepresented a few facts a little, but that every single solitary thing that the GOP says on the topic is a stone cold lie with absolutely no basis in reality. ftw.usatoday.com/story/sports...

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"

I will do everything in my power to make sure this guy is never elected again. Here’s a form where you can tell him you will do the same. www.gov.ca.gov

"The first guest on Gavin Newsom's podcast was Charlie Kirk" is more than enough for me to say "absolutely not" to any suggestion Newsom play any role in the future of the Democratic Party. People like him are the past, the failures, the ones who got us here.

Cis people: the more of you that speak out, the better I feel that we can survive this. Please familiarize yourself with why transition related care for trans teens is so important and how it is safe, effective, and literally life saving: https://transequality.org/news/get-facts-truth-about-transiti

If you’re a straight, cis person who has ever posted some version of a rainbow with “you’re safe with me” or similar, it’s time to back up the words with action— contact your reps and ask them what they’re going to do to protect trans people from this administration, particularly trans kids.

Trump White House's first trans executive order is out. I'll be reading over it here and going through line by line to help you make sense of it. You can find it here: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

I will commit to (maybe) posting here once a year, so here's some pictures of Da Boys

The boys refuse to stop growing and I'm going to have to request they stay this size because I'm fully expecting them to be giants just like Bean.

Baby update since I've been bad at taking pictures recently: Big!!!! Look how long they've gotten!!!

POV: Ur absolutely conked out after destroying a full bowl of food, peeing on the human's foot, and annihilating hands, toys, and your sister for an hour straight

Photo shamelessly stolen from @yingyang.bsky.social: They're doing so well!!! Little baby absolutely demolished the food at two meal times early this morning and so did her big sister, and she seems so much more alert. We have a long way to go but so far so good.

Blue got up and walked over to get food at the same time as her sister for the first time, and she ate before and after the hand feed. I'm so happy 🥲 Here's a size comparison kitten picture tax. Red is picture 1 and Blue is picture 2.

Apparently my entire Bluesky account is just going to be the kitten chronicles: Blue (little one) is starting to perk up more- she went from uninterested in food yesterday to eating from the bowl before AND after being hand fed this morning. Red (big one) is doing very well and is already playful.
