Thank Julia for filing this suit and getting the tool shut down almost immediately 👏🏽👏🏽
Me neither, but they’ll learn this war won’t end just bc Trump decides he doesn’t want to play with this toy anymore. Why would Iran reopen the strait with the threat of renewed attack hanging over them? Or with Israel continuing to bomb? They killed or discredited the pro-negotiations faction.
Real talk, I can't be a firefighter anymore because of complications from a bad round of Covid-19. It reduced my lung capacity and essentially gave me exercise induced asthma. We are just now starting to come to terms with the long term consequences of this illness. "It's just a cold" nah dawg
are you still trying to make up for liking that other series more than LOTR
Y'all listening to a rhop's ex-husband about when boycotts are over? Yikes, couldn't be me.

Democrats have now flipped a district in a special election for the 10th time since President Trump returned to office. If alarms weren’t already going off for the GOP ahead of this year’s midterms, they certainly are now. trib.al/khUTH4V
I’m my head canon Grammarly’s lawyer just got back from leave for hernia surgery and checked their email.
I post for the people who still have to whisper "i-ss-i-ss-i-pp-i" after typing the M
Exactly so!
"one eye on the flapjacks, one eye on the bellhop" is just solid advice
POSSIBLE NEW IDIOMS:
sharpen the zig, sharpen the zag
staircase full of petticoat fluffers
chest like a pillow & a face like a wolf
& THAT’S a Bratislava goodbye
one eye on the flapjacks, one eye on the bellhop
g-g-g-g-g-gong it!

hi if you're a cis person thinking of screenshotting a trans woman as a way of doing discourse:
- don't do that
- ever
- you look like a fucking asshole
I've taken to saying "no, thank you!" and walking away. That's only three words!
The absolute most disgusting, eliminationist Islamophobia from multiple members of the House Republican caucus continues to spew forth without acknowledgment or censure
The biggest way this is like Covid is that Trump has no idea how bad he’s fucking up. And no one he’s listening to will even try to tell him.
So please, if you can, I’d love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activists…if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?
Post links if you can.
Buy stuff if you can.
They hate when people stand up.
No one cares what a comic book writer thinks but if we all stand up and say this is wrong, we have seen that elections can be won, and a lot of people are fed up with Transphobes.
So please, let’s do that and not just shrug this off as another shitty thing in a long parade of shitty things.

Even worse, a lot of Trans people are not in a position to leave financially and otherwise.
I would rather be talking about happy things. But this is an insidious campaign of misinformation and cruelty, it has no other point except distraction from the actual criminals.

I never thought I would see this. States are legislating unenforceable laws that violate privacy and decency and basic human dignity, targeting Trans people over a bunch of horseshit lies and ignorance.
So some of the best people are leaving because of the worst, and the silence of the rest.

Three different Trans friends, all creatives, productive, well-loved people with years in our communities told me they feel they have no choice but to leave the USA for their safety.
They have to start again because of bigot scum, the worst people in our country.

ECCC was fun and I had a wonderful time.
But there was a storm cloud. When I complained about Trump with my white straight cis friends, we were all sincere and concerned.
But I talked with many Trans friends, and it’s so much worse. They are in fear for their lives.

Not sure what you're trying to say to me, but I'm a kosher-keeping Jew who believes in God and lives quite well with her atheist Jewish husband (plus, bc I'm actually p sure what you're trying to say, I'd never go into anyone's @'s to mock them/anyone else for their faith, so. Here we are.)
I sure am :) *passes the tissues*
Yesterday, our volunteer observers saw 13 detainees board an ICE Air flight, which flew to Alexandria, LA.
Since January 1, we've noted 79 such flights at MSP, which have carried away an estimated 3,127 people to detention centers in Nebraska, Louisiana, Texas, and beyond.
"As a whole, the rabbinic discussions about Sodom demonstrate that, for the rabbis, the true definition of 'sodomy' is toxic selfishness combined with an extreme devotion to property rights."
ALWAYS here for rabbis explaining Sodom...!
Who amongst us?
