always strange to talk about but when i see everyone around me accepting sickness when i have been doing just one thing different while attending movies parties bars concerts flights…….i feel morally obligated to occasionally mention that wearing a mask has been a game changer. simple as that

instagram started serving me a bunch of videos about “so everyone has this mystery illness right we’re all suffering 😷” and thousands of comments agreeing and i’m just here to say no it doesn’t have to be like that actually

I hope Alice’s memory is never sanitized. She supported free Palestine. She believed in deep pleasure for disabled people, sexual, aesthetic & otherwise. She was unflinching in calling out people’s bullshit. Don’t let the mainstream turn her into some desexualized defanged inspiration porn!!!

Respect Alice Wong’s call here: “When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

A real loss. Rest in power, Alice Wong.

i hope this is how you find out about dick cheney

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

James Dobson can no longer do evil on earth, but we still live with his zombie: his network of "family policy council" lobbying groups Most state laws against abortion, gay marriage, or trans healthcare have their roots in Dobson's network. Its power is vast, yet it is little-known 🧵

Are all the “but I’m vaccinated and never have to do anything else because I don’t want to” folks going to get on board with respirators and clean air now that vaccines are not available to most in the US? Or leap into the approaching alternative? Who’s to say. Anyway, find your local mask bloc 👀
