You can understand this shutdown with 3 numbers. 15M — the number of people Republicans want to kick off health care 20M — the number of people Republicans want to 2x health premiums for 0 — the number of times Republicans have called the House back to reopen the government

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Apropos of nothing... just popping on here to say that this year's Purgatory Report on @cprg-fm.org holiday special is going to be one of the most incredible things we've ever made. #WynonnaEarp #Earpers #RadioTheater

Finally, some good news. Whoa, Dolly! Looking fit and fabulous!

I don't care how much Anti-Trump grandstanding Newsom does, this is who he actually is. Despiscable, grotesque, an ally to none but those who line his pockets.

So, sticking with my schedule, I wanted to share the opening chapters to my Wayhaught Vampire AU. I've tried to do something a little different, so, be kind. Will update this on Fridays 😊🧛‍♀️ I'm kinda proud of this one. @efapodcast.com #Wayhaught #WynonnaEarp archiveofourown.org/works/71822396

Congratulations, Cinco Paul!! This is the best theater news I've heard in ages. Exceedingly well-deserved!

On a lighter note: Yesterday my workplace had a company-wide training and our office manager was running around giving everyone reminders to stop work in time to attend. She bustled past me and said, "Training in two" and I replied automatically "Thank you, two."

Actor and activist Jane Fonda has relaunched the Committee for the First Amendment first backed by her father Henry Fonda in 1947, to fight against what the group calls a “coordinated campaign” from the Trump administration to curb freedom of expression. https://wapo.st/4nxKYQw

Elizabeth Warren: "The president said 'I am going to impose a lot more pain on my fellow American citizens. I'm going to impose a lot more pain on people in NY who need to use those tunnels so I can get my way politically.' To me, that is a place to stop & say, then we're ready to fight about this"

This is it. We don't want to have to move. But we have before & will again, if need be. I began my migratory internet journey in '91-92. Moving on is part of the process, for myself & others, when the least powerful are routinely the least safe @pfrazee.com @jay.bsky.team @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app

These "agents" are functioning like the Gestapo and SS. This is horrific!!!! “Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Thank you, Jane, for all of your incredible work and the legacy you leave for us to carry on. #RIPJaneGoodall

This is not a normal shutdown. youtube.com/shorts/BOF2F...

It really is a very good read.

Just a few short hours to fund the government, and House Republicans aren't even in town—they're on vacation. Republicans don't care. Republicans and Trump are shutting down the government rather than working with Democrats to fix the health care crisis THEY created.

I know this is old news now, but: The more educated you are, the more likely you are to lean left. This is why the right is cutting educational funding, and removing tons of literature, history books and science texts from schools and libraries. Stock up on banned books and educational resources!

With AO3 about to go down for 20 hours, might we suggest a way to fill the time would be to listening to past episodes of EFA and @cprg-fm.org? #WynonnaEarp #Fanfic #RadioTheater

Must read 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 Exactly this. All of it.

🖕 this entire 🖕-ing administration into the 🖕-ing sun.

All of “The Discourse” caused me to miss the announcement that The Muppet Show is coming back!! THE. MUPPET. SHOW. IS. COMING. BACK!!!!!!

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Deleting the study doesn’t delete the truth.

I wrote about the firing of Alan Sepinwall, which is awful. And I tied it into what's happening all over in the media, why it's scary & what we can do to help. I used my words, but it's definitely Hulk Mo dialed up to 11, if that's a thing you would like to experience: www.moryan.com/on-the-firin...

RIP Robert Redford. An Icon and one of a dying breed (a genuinely good guy in Hollywood). Definitely going to watch The Sting tonight.

The world is on fire but HEY! "Heroes Always Win!" the complete series of #WynonnaEarp is now on Tubi!! #ThankYouTubi!!

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

“So what if he disagreed with you, he didn’t deserve to die” But he thought I did. This isn’t disagreement. It’s someone who was not only opposed to my existence but was called a good and faithful servant by the church for doing it. I don’t have to mourn that. And asking me to is violence too.

The last thing I’m gonna do is worry about oppressors using the actions of one person as justification to continue doing the harm they were already doing anyway.

There’s a way to be respectful in reporting on Charlie Kirk being shot while also refusing to whitewash who he was and what consequences his political activism has had. Obituaries for public figures are a part of history.

We are hiring a State Government Reporter who will be a primary source of news on Washington state government. More information: www.kuow.org/careers/Stat...

This is what the appeasers and capitulators don't seem to get (or perhaps willfully deny): You're not going along with one awful thing, you're setting the baseline for the next awful thing, and the expectation that you'll acquiesce to that. Which forms a new baseline... Call it out and say no.

Hawaii announced they are joining California, Oregon, and Washington’s West Coast Health Alliance which will provide their own science-based vaccine guidelines and make vaccines accessible to everyone.

I think that since the overwhelming majority of mass shooters are cisgender men, we should take their guns first.

Jim. You can't get better than the original. Steve was overly protective of Kermit and took away a lot of the sarcastic undercurrent that Jim gave him. Matt does a better job of imitating Jim's sound, but I think he's still finding his (webbed) feet with the character.

Rest in Peace. A brilliant talent, a humble man.

It's "finale" here! #radiotheater #Earpers

WTAF??

Cis people: This is where you fucking step up. Do everything you can to support trans people in the coming days. You're going to hear horrible, hurtful rhetoric about us. Shut it down. Don't let it stand. And buy the trans people in your life a drink.

Happy Int’l Dog Day from these two moppets.

It is OK to want things when the world is on fire. It is OK to have hopes and dreams when everything is a mess. It is OK to say yes to the goddamn universe when the ground feels unsteady. You don’t become less of a person, less of who you are, when things are hard. You deserve good things.
