Seahorses: Trans, Nonbinary, and Gender-Expansive Pregnancy A new collection of trans joy and resilience that will stick with you and inspire you to love a little deeper.

There is a really great kickstarter that needs a bit more to get funded. If you can help, that would be amazing. As someone who has researched and teaches about the anthropology of reproduction we need more gender expansive perspectives on pregnancy.

Woman who called kid n-word raises over $300,000 to relocate A Minnesota woman seen using a racial slur against a child in a video has raised over $300,000 through a crowdfunding campaign.

@givesendgo.bsky.social Your Christian platform is allowing a fundraiser by a racist white women who bullied a Black child. Does this align with your values as Christians? Do you support racism?

Over $400k raised from racist Christians. Absolutely Shameful.

β€œExclusively to Twitter” - just makes open corruption and conflicts of interest with the Trump administration and Musk.

What they imagined about Soros is real life on steroids with Musk.

It’s a miracle any non-white, non straight, non-citizen person in America is getting any work done right nowβ€”

β€”While the regime is actively trying to purge us from government, workplaces, universities from its websites, and from society in general.

Our 6-yr-old kitty Eris got diagnosed with FHV & she has a severe eye ulcer. We're struggling to keep up with the ongoing bills for her care. I'm trying to do everything I can to try to save her eye. She's the sweetest spicy kitty. If you could help out, I'd be so grateful.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a β€˜DEI hire.’

Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

A reminder that fiction β€” books, film, games, what have you β€” is always political. The willful absence of β€œpolitics” in any work is itself a political choice and a political act. Who gets to tell (and sell) stories is political. It might be an undercurrent β€” covert, not overt. But it’s there.

I know. I was there in those camps.

It has just been reported that a transgender person committed suicide today wrapped in a transgender flag in Syracuse at the VA.

These attacks are killing us.

This must stop.

So a white guy flying a plane crashed into a white guy flying a helicopter because a bunch of white guys decided to gut air safety and none of them could communicate with each other.

But it's Black peoples fault?

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on β€œDEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
