I dropped Spotify when Rogan was signed. NYT probably two years ago now? Follow me for early insight into corporations you should break ties with before they go full fascist!

Oh but keep posting your wordle everyday friends ffs

As a family, we have taken to ending group texts with THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. I’m happy to report that DO NOT REPEAT THIS INSIGHT will soon be joining. It’s how you raise teen antifa right!

When I say that I've learned a lot about the Holocaust by living as the parent of a trans kid in the 2020s, I don't mean that I think Republicans are Nazis. No. What I've learned is that Nazis were just the Republicans of their era, and of their system. #ProtectTransKids

Visible, yet vulnerable: What journalists can learn from how we covered the attack on trans rights in Trump’s first 100 days.
One big takeaway: Based on analysis of a representative sample of articles, 70% of stories about anti-trans executive orders didn’t quote trans people.

Would enjoy the company of my dog/lizard who must sunbathe and if he is forced to endure a Wisconsin winter would also like to sit on the heating pad please.

Not a thread, but just a point I’d like to make. I’ve run for office three times as a mom, including when I had four children 5 and under. No regrets.

A short story about @shaheen.senate.gov ~2004/5. She’d lost a race so joined the Institute of Politics at Harvard Kennedy School as a Fellow, as one does. I was a pregnant grad student. I asked her advice about running for office as a mom. She told me to wait my turn. I never sought her out again.

DAVIS, KIM V. ERMOLD, DAVID, ET AL. The motion of Foundation for Moral Law for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae out of time is denied. The petition for a writ of certiorari is denied.

New: The Supreme Court DENIES Kim Davis' request to overturn Obergefell, the marriage equality decision. No noted dissents. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

@ethicking.com I’m so glad to be wrong

No. Say it ain’t so, @baldwin.senate.gov

The fact that seven of us just walked into our pharmacy, asked for COVID and flu vaccines, and received them immediately and free after insurance, feels like a stroke of luck.

Actual, real, happy tears.

Where is said transgender coffee shop? Will they employ my trans and GNC teens? It looks lovely 💕

Here we go (again).

newsom *could* be taking this moment to leverage state funds and ensure that millions of california residents don’t go hungry when SNAP benefits (CalFresh in california) don’t renew on 1 november

instead, he’s doing this.

(authorizing a one-time cash influx to food banks doesn’t replace CalFresh!)

USDA Website Blames SNAP Benefits Expiring On Trans People And Immigrants During Shutdown The benefits, which are set to expire on November 1st due to the government shutdown, will lead to millions of people struggling to secure access to food.

1. As SNAP benefits expire, 42,000,000 hungry people may turn to the USDA website.

Now, the website blames their hunger on transgender people and immigrants.

It's a cynical ploy, an an indication that anti-trans measures are a Trump priority for the shutdown.

This is big (and deeply frustrating) news for the small nonprofits in your community with limited if any staff and probably even less comfort with digital tools.

No threatening divorce over BlueSky babe 😘 and also it sounds disgusting 💁🏻‍♀️

The oldest kid recently sent me a ‘pizza soup’ recipe that starts with blending a frozen pizza…

The @nytimes.com decided last year what the story was; Trump II was the righteous punishment visited upon their interns and junior staffers and grandchildren for being so annoying about MeToo and BLM, and once they understood that and repented, they could have democracy back.

Why Boston will always be home, no matter where I happen to live 💙

My 17 year old daughter, but she’s not on BlueSky. She just always deserves a mention 💕

Need to save this picture for the next time someone asks if Scott Walker is running for office in Wisconsin again…

There goes our plan B for my 17.5 year old daughter (currently receiving care in the Midwest but with generations of family in Boston). The amount of time I spend just tracking our options for safety and care…

do you guys ever think about how in a better world José Andres could just like. have some restaurants. and instead he’s consistently doing the work we’re supposed to have governments for

Pew Survey: Only 31% Of Trans People Report Being Accepted By Their Parents The survey comes as transgender people experience a legal assault from the far-right in the United States.

One of the most perverse ideas on the anti-trans side is that trans people are instantly affirmed and celebrated by everyone when they come out and that acceptance is driving a social contagion.

It's the ultimate form of gaslighting against our community.

The relative power Wisconsin has is especially scary when you consider how long we’ve been drastically underfunding public education as a state.
