Someone was finger wagging about "people being tired of incrementalism" earlier tonight and...I don't know what to tell you but the patience and resilience of Black people during the Civil Rights movement and well before is the reason there have been progress at all.

Thank you!! BTW I just read Eric K Ward’s Skin in the Game Revisited,” in which the white nationalist project centered on antisemitism (Jews destroying whiteness) explains the chilling next step, that inclusive leftist politics are not democracy, they are conspiracy. Fascism is no longer abhorrent.

White text on black square: “For Andrea. I am watching nearly every queer and trans person I know share about how you shaped their lives, how you gave voice to their pain and pride and discovery and angst. I think as queers we have so many beautiful languages that we share with each other - and for many of us, there were periods when those languages were known only to us. Secret survival maps where we wondered whether we would find our way through and other people giving voice to that pain and fear increased the chances that we would. You, Andrea, are a deep connective tissue of queer love and you live within us. May we honor your singular beauty every day. I know I will try.”

Thank you, Andrea. ♥️🫂

I stopped even my personal blog in 2016 for exactly this reason. There was nothing to say but “white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism.” Anything else had stakes too low to bother with. But high stakes stuff—no analysis necessary.

Butches are magic!! For being butch. That is all it takes.

MOBY DICK IS GAYER THAN ACTUAL OSCAR WILDE

My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.

"You rely on Medicaid? If you lose your job, Republicans in Congress want to rip your healthcare away too. We're going to say 'hell no' to a Medicaid job loss penalty"

This is high art

Courage is contagious!

Thirty years after its passage, TABOR has mutated into something unrecognizable, warping state finances and acting as a shield for the wealthy who avoid paying their fair share. If we had our druthers, we’d rename it Tax Avoiding Billionaires Openly Rejoice. What would you call it? bit.ly/4k0kdmt

Today’s truth. Hashtag no time for (most) dads. Hashtag not all dads.

YES YES YES! Fascism and also P2025 goals to erode public education in order to foster fewer dissidents that learn enough to know they can refuse the white cis hetero baby factory norm and pursue their own lovely idiosyncratic well-informed goals

A highlight: details about how difficult it is for actually working people to prove it in the system, given how so many low-wage work arrangements are informal. Also so much money on advertising, seems counter to Republican taking points about cutting government waste #Medicaid #HealthCarePolicy

Remember the quaint old times when we really really wanted Obama to hold W Bush and Cheney accountable for lies that led to the pointless war in Iraq? Ha ha ha ha has ha ha ha ha ha ha
