Trin Creates

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Wow!!!!

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Me four days ago on TikTok: "STOP SPECULATING YOU ASSHOLES. YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HELICOPTER FLYING."

Guy in a business meeting with me today: "I just wanted to say, I used to fly Blackhawk helicopters..."

Me: 😶

Him: "...and I really appreciated your tiktok."

Me: 😮‍💨

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

I think I have a pretty good mix of bird photos, shitposters, media thinkers, and science communicators!

The GOP is attempting to defund PBS and NPR in their future budget cuts! There are many petitions that you can sign in order support our freedom of seeking out knowledge! Our discernment is up to us to read between media biases! It’s still our choice!

REAL INTENSE CANCER DREAM LAST NIGHT. Because I was out of town my doctors sent me a scalpel in the mail and told me to cut it out myself.

As my son said to me when he was four, “why does my brain show me things I don’t want to see?”

Just hit me why AOC is so good and brilliant at being the adult in the room with all the trashy losers making terrible choices around her. She used to be a bartender.

Community is the antidote to despair.

Happy to host! 🌹

Immigrants' Rights | American Civil Liberties Union The fundamental constitutional protections of due process and equal protection embodied in our Constitution and Bill of Rights apply to every person, regardless of immigration status.

This morning I reached 250,000 followers here on Bluesky, which is a gobsmackingly large number for me. Thanks so much for following me; I hope I make your experience in the sky better. To celebrate, I've donated to @aclu.org, which helps defend immigrant rights.

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

My daughter isn’t cool with TikTok right now. I asked her what she thought. She’s aware that they coordinated with Trump. She & her friends are talking about deleting.

“They took away one of my favorite things and brought it back, giving Trump credit. He’s a narcissist, not a hero! I hate it.”

People uncritically celebrating TikTok returns without an ounce of skepticism will not be trusted going forward.

I'm spending the rest of the day writing a fanfic about Vine and TikTok boinking each other in every single way.

My online life got so much better when I realized that

a) I didn't have to attend every argument that I was invited to

b) blocking was self-care, not weakness

Yet another urgent reminder for artists (or anyone) to create your own website. Do it today!! If people cannot access you for whatever reason on social media, they can at least find you on your website

Garlic in my cooking and vanilla extract in my baking share one guiding principle: I add them with wild abandon, defying the recipe with a mix of audacity and playful disdain.

Hard to process the devastation I’ve witnessed in the last two days. Still in a state of shock for those who have lost so much in such a short period of time. #NoWords 💔

I LOVE seeing other ATWWD fans 💜
