There’s so many more, of course. Feeling particularly grateful for each of these today.

Chapter 3: The Beginnings of the Religious Authoritarian Parenting Movement How the 1960s and social progress movements sparked a long-term backlash that continues on to the present day.

James Dobson is finally dead and I have been trying to besmirch his legacy for the past few years! If you want to understand how he targeted strategic developmental stages in childhood to create people ripe for authoritarian abuse, start here: strongwilled.substack.com/p/chapter-3-...

How to publish a Podcast on Ghost — Resources Publish podcasts using audio embeds and native membership features.

I’m so sorry. I find your work indispensable and wish you didn’t have to worry about this part of it. I’ve seen @anildash.com, @angryblacklady.bsky.social and others recommend Ghost, which supports podcasting. ghost.org/resources/pu...

So grateful for the work @erininthemorning.com has been doing the past few days, breaking down each anti-trans executive order. Please stop and take a few minutes to read this thread and then (at least) a few minutes more to take action to protect trans young people.

No joke sometimes on first or second bite I start crafting a rationale for why a second sandwich will be necessary.

We do a few small things each year to “shop” local, knowing there’s always more to do. One of my favorites: our monthly donation to @blockclubchi.bsky.social. I love knowing we’re helping support neighborhood reporting + a remarkable team of local journalists. blockclubchicago.org/cye2024/

As someone who was born in Green Bay and has been a lifelong Packers fan, I am (without any irony) so happy for Bears players and fans today. The Packers/Bears rivalry is most fun to me when both teams are great. This Bears season has been painful to watch + I’m excited for them with this change.

This is a fantastic thread with a lot of helpful links. I just called my representative. Took less than two minutes. Thank you @threnody.bsky.social for this!

There are a lot of great starter packs you can easily search for to find trans and nonbinary writers, artists, organizers, and more. Also will say I’m particularly grateful for what @emilystjams.bsky.social, @dlmayfield.bsky.social, and @transscribe.bsky.social are up to here.

During my first real week on Bluesky, I’ve found so much joy and learned tons from the trans voices that have literally shaped the experience of this place and continue to do so.
