Dear cis people,

It's well past the point where this kind of thing will fix everything, but I want you to take note of how easy this is.

These little freaks are soft-handed little babies that will fold like a napkin in the rain.

Light these fools up.

No. Christians feel persecuted because there is a vast media apparatus telling them that they are persecuted. There is no evidence whatsoever of large-scale discrimination against Christians in this country.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

Please please please just make your fucking comic. It doesn't have to have mass appeal or be marketable. I'm literally making a comic about gay aztec steampunks. A publisher would laugh me out the door. I still have a budding audience!! And even then! If it brings you joy, make the fucking comic!

Happy to be on vacation the most of March so I don't get emails asking me to do women's history month programming and then having to explain that non-binary doesn't mean woman-lite.
Anyway, read the book that cracked my gender non conforming egg! @shelbycriswell.bsky.social's Queer As All Get Out!

More simply put, this means gender-affirming care providers nationwide will continue to receive federal funding, pending further litigation. It's great news.

Front cover of "This Nonviolent Stuff'll Get You Killed: How Guns Made the Civil Rights Movement Possible" by Charles E. Cobb Jr. There is a picture of an old black woman holding what looks like some kind of single-shot rifle.

RFK Jr. said in his Fox News OpEd that β€œGood nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses”.

The best diet in the world will not prevent infection if you are unvaccinated and sharing air with someone who has measles.

Screen cap of meteorologist Avery Tomasco social media post: "Have not seen a wildfire setup like this for Central Texas in many years.
Folks, this is as bad as it gets tomorrow. Howling winds, extreme drought, dormant fuels following extreme cold in late February... Be extremely vigilant and mindful of anything that could spark a fire"

Heads up, central Texas. Extreme fire danger tomorrow.

Not sure if OP @averytomascowx.bsky.social was planning to post this here as well, so I'm passing it along.

The final vote: 51-45, with 4 people absent.

CLOTURE FAILS, A CONGRESSIONAL SPORTS BAN WILL NOT HAPPEN.

Democrats hold firm, not a single dem voted for cloture.

MAJOR victory for everyone who called in today and this week in support of trans people.

Chart showing that middles aged people especially born first vaccinated between 1963-1967 should get a measles booster

It’s important for folks in their 40s/50s/60s to realize that some of us should get a measles booster. I did a few years ago

all modern society is built around preventing anyone from ever feeling uncomfortable for even one second, and unfortunately that small moment of crisis is the place where all innovation happens
