folks really need to accept that "lawful" and "lawless" don't matter, what matters is being able to marshal and deploy force (force of capital, the force of arms, the force of a crowd...) none of the people running the country right now give a good goddamn about the law

Maybe if we tell them there’s a student encampment inside the White House democrats will spring to action.

Just in case: If you are in the Seattle-area and need a document notarized to protect yourself and your family from this fascist regime but are too afraid/lack the funds to go to a UPS store or similar, I am a notary and I will notarize your documents *for free*.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

The Transgender Law Centre works on supporting trans rights in areas like healthcare, employment, and immigration. They're trans-led and provide legal assistance, policy advocacy, public education. I've just donated and, if you can, I would recommend you do too <3 transgenderlawcenter.org/donate/

if it helps - and it genuinely has for me! - try thinking of everything you do to take care of your heart, mind & body to ensure your own well-being as a tiny way to steal his life force, eat up one of his last days on earth and give it to yourself, because you MUST OUTLIVE HIM to dance on his grave

Yeah, I don't think this is the fault of folks who skipped voting (many of whom had family being massacred). I think it's actually the fault of 1) the people who wanted this and 2) the "opposition" that failed repeatedly to put up a fight, to the point that it kinda looks like they wanted this too.

There Is No Mary Problem in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ George’s vision of his wife without him is essential to the film, but critics continue to miss its true—and profound—meaning.

Speaking of It’s A Wonderful Life, there were a few years there where “The Mary Problem” was an annual tradition, and I feel like Clare Coffey single handedly put it to rest, with this smart piece about the character.

It's like how The Wizard of Oz's last song is "If I Were King of the Forest".

11 was the Doctor that made me a fan of the show. Now I think 12 is my favorite modern Doctor.

But after watching the classic series, I've found that 7 might be my favorite Doctor of all.

Israel has just committed a horrific massacre in northern Gaza, bombing a building in Beit Lahia where more than 70 people were sheltering, killing 50 of them, with the read injured or missing.

I wish more movie nerds talked about films made before 1980. Here are some of my favorites: HÄXAN (1922), A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH (1946), BLACK GIRL (1966), and WHAT'S UP, DOC? (1972).

1. If you’re Trans/Non-Binary and you haven’t gotten the gender marker on your passport updated to match with your identity, please immediately go for a renewal and get expedited service.

If you’re Trans/Non-Binary and have never had a passport, please apply for one ASAP and get expedited service.

Suicide Prevention is a very important cause to me and based on multiple skeets on my skyline:

📞 988 - National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (has text chat, too)

🏳️‍⚧️ Trans Lifeline - 877-565-8860

🏳️‍🌈 Trevor Project - 866-488-7386

Or if you are in immediate danger go to the closest emergency room.

somehow ive found myself in a position where folks come to chuck in times of strife for encouragement. lets get the big part of this conversation out of the way LOVE IS STILL REAL and that is the thing to remember. that north star remains. today there is more to talk about though

They're crucial pieces of advice if Harris wins too. There are states/counties/cities where patriarchal authoritarianism is ascendant. There are and will be so many vulnerable people who will need our help no matter who wins the presidency

Regardless of the outcome at this point, I really hope this outcome ends the idea that Trump's first term was some sort of fluke, that we as a country are 'better than that.' Naive, see-no-evil ass position that self-sabotages the work of building an holsitic alternative vision for the country.
