GY's entire job has been to give nonstop interviews on f0x and tell laid off federal workers in NoVa that they just have to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. He came in as an "education" gov, but the only thing he's done is terrorize queer children and cut funding. He'll be gone in 2 months.

Header text in all-caps: "A Letter To The Trans Teen Thinking About Giving Up". Text in smaller font below: “There's a future you who is surrounded by meaning and connection and beauty and who has people around them that will catch them when they stumble and hug them when they get up. There's a future you who doesn't depend on the state for anything because they are seen and held and loved by community, who can reach out their own hand to the next generations of queer and trans people and pass along some of this stuff to them, just like I'm passing it to you now.” Behind these, aqua, pink, and white background and on the bottom right corner is Scarleteen's logo and tagline "Queer Sex Ed for All since 1998."

The U.S. v. Skrmetti decision was devastating. It will do harm to many young #trans people in the United States. But please don't interpret this decision as a death sentence, or believe anyone who tells you that without the government's support, all young trans people in the United States will die.

Happy Pride.

No matter who you are, how you identify, you are valid and loved.

Now just hang on! ;) When you're at a Niagara truck stop in January, and it's balls cold outside, and all you and your friends got is a bowl of quality poutine made by a guy named Vinny next to a cartoon badger... well, that's a fine meal right there. Sticks to your ribs! :D

Hope it was worth it to stop a few of us from peeing.

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn’t a selfie.

Wow!

Called it.

Even worse, they claim that no one saw it coming, which is an absurd rewriting of history to prevent criticism of their approach.

Particularly wild for that to happen in the media, since it is their job to report the truth. It indicates imo that they actively spread disinfo to protect themselves.

Some of yall act like you didn't grow up as a latchkey kid, in a bad neighborhood, in a navy town, with parents that actively looked for ways to hurt you, and it shows.

A wild bear.

Today is World Bear Day.

Oh, I sense punitive f1rings and loyal7y purg3s are coming. [sarcasm]That would be such a shame. [/sarcasm]

Dire warning from Canada MP: "I urge people not to travel to the United States" (video) Dire warning from Canada's Prime Minister Angus: "I urge people not to travel to the United States" (video)

The United States is no longer a nation under the rule of law.
I urge Canadians to avoid travel. Illegal detentions and kidnapping by ICE have become all too common for travellers and those with working VISAs.
Stay away at this time.

Canada must speak up against the arbitrary detention of travellers. Canadians and other nationals have been kidnapped by ICE.
These are not the actions of a democratic nation.
This is the creep of fascism.
I am calling on Canadians to avoid all travel to the USA.

France leads, MAGA seethes

I'll believe it when I see it.

The d3ms wants to present the image that they are the steady and reliable hand on the tiller of the economy. They just wait things out and not take chances, because that's what they've done for 45 years. Their one-trick doesn't work anymore, and they've got nothing else to fall back on.

@parkroseperma.bsky.social Those electeds (most of our electeds) don't represent we the people. Much like social media, we're not the customer, we're the product. Their customers are the pacs and big corporate doners.
