I read that the only way we will get through the loss of SNAP is through community support. People are sending me WishLists for food and other needs. Feel free to send me your own and I will share them.

THIS IS THE THREAD WHERE I WILL SHARE REQUESTS.

Please repost.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

I won't use any organizing energy opposing the criminalization of feds, but I really think people should be focusing on restorative initiatives for victims / communities first. We already saw the results of Jan 6 prosecutions---they're already back on the streets.

I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.

The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

2024 Holiday Requests 2024 Holiday Requests *WishLists with an asterisk next to them could use extra love, as others are getting more attention. Thank you. K is a 7.5 year-old trans child who is Latine. Their extended fa...

Every year I run a Holidays WishList Request program.
Everyone on the list is multiply marginalized (BIPOC, LGBT+, disabled) with little family.

Some get no presents for holidays.

I've compiled a list of all of the WishLists. Please help if you can! Pls share.

I thought Nessarose’s character was a bit more developed and ableism (esp infantilization) is actually recognized which was cool to see on screen. I am veryyy interested to see part 2 and if they change her narrative (and the very thematic ableism) at all from the original show!

While I miss the overconfidence of my youth (knowing everything simplified matters significantly), seeing folks my age and older whose egos have run amok is a grounding experience. I am grateful to people who were patient with me back when I knew it all and who helped me realize that I didn't.

Hello all of you new people especially disabled and trans people. And gamers and actors and screenwriters

One bit of advice: you can best support others by re-sharing things they post/skeet.

Reminder that any “men are inherently bad” “women are inherently good” rhetoric can very easily lead down a TERF/anti-trans pipeline! no one is inherently anything! we are all humans with free will! I will not let trans people become scapegoats on this page!!
