OTD in 2015, same-sex marriage became legal.

#LoveIsLove became a mantra.

A decade later, many disabled people still cannot love freely.

A decade later, many disabled people have to choose between love and survival

Where is the outrage over Skrmetti? On the far right's campaign to create uncertainty. And the powerful institutions that helped along the way.

NEW: "Where is the outrage over Skrmetti?"

On the far right's campaign to create uncertainty over gender-affirming medical care for minors β€” and the powerful institutions that helped along the way.

Tonight, at Law Dork, my written equivalent of a direct-to-camera address.

I'm seriously considering ranking him. I want Adams out, and I don't want Cuomo. I don't agree with him on everything, as his stance on a green space dear to my heart is at odds with mine, but otherwise, he's a strong progressive bet

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

Well played! There really isn't enough coffee to help me wrap my brain around the sheer level of incompetence he displayed.

We laugh so we don't cry, yeah?

JD Vance has an agenda. Set up conditions to make war possible if Trump wants it.

AOC: Alina Habba said, β€œWhat intellectual thought.. you were in a bar AOC. Not to have a drink but to serve one.” I don’t care what this woman says about me but I want you to understand that she isn’t just talking about me, she’s talking about all of us.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

I remember Kent State Massacre. We marched at San Francisco State University in solidarity and revolt against those murders. Reagan was California's Governor at the time and he shut down all the universities and colleges...thus began the war on education and dissent.

Trump is the final product.

Also, SSA operates at ~1% overhead. Any MAGA Gooner who claims there's any more efficiency to be found is lying, stupid, or both.

Please listen and shareβ€”this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.
