i wish i had advice, but i relate to this thread so heavily. it's hard to find the motivation to do anything when every aspect of your life is on fire. it's okay to take a break from the news to rest your soul. you'll catch up when you can.

Donate to Help Cairo Finally Get Top Surgery, organized by Cairo Steele Hello! I'm Cairo Steele. You may know me from around the internet- I'm a 30-something … Cairo Steele needs your support for Help Cairo Finally Get Top Surgery

Alright, I've launched a GFM to help cover my top surgery costs. I've included a painfully vulnerable summary of my (long) transition journey so far, some of the hurdles I've faced, and what this procedure means to me.

Thank you 💜

jeffrey epstein is america's only five-term president, in addition to being the first individual to hold the office after dying mysteriously in a jail cell

and i know i'm not even going to buy the damn thing!!! because being without money is scary!!!! but y'all i cannot stop watching let's players playing these specific games that i desperately want to play.

there's a lot going on socially & medically that i'm just like. i'll be responsible & set alarms & reminders & calendar events for everything, but every waking minute between those events & tasks is spent thinkin about when my tax refund comes in & i get to purchase the ultimate escapism tool

i used to fantasize about future paychecks and tax refunds and other deposits to my account because i had bills to pay and it'd give me room to breathe. but i've become so insanely stressed with everything going on that i'm back to fantasizing about new game consoles and shit just for the escapism

i will never forgive the techbros for ruining computer
computer was the only thing i liked

This is just blood libel, which has been at the heart of all conspiratorial thinking in the west for hundreds of years. Millions of people believe some variation of blood libel (qanon and the satanic panic are the two most common modern versions)

Trans people should not have to suffer for the mistakes and shittyness of cisgender people ever.

Cisgender people who serve our population need to hold themselves, and be held, to the highest standard.

My condolences to all of Jess Ting’s patients. It appears his name is in the Epstein files many, many times and not in a very good light. I won’t publish specifically what is in there, but it’s important that his current and future patients be aware.

Sad to see.

well

well well well

well well well well well

A screenshot of the app Finch. There are two birds on the screen, and they are both too big to fully fit in the frame. (Context: the first challenge for this month required drinking a mysterious potion that ended up making your bird grow exponentially, just like in Alice in Wonderland.)

A screenshot of the app Finch. My bird here (named Jack) is dressed like a dapper little gentleman - well, he would be if he wasn't utterly GINORMOUS. His hat doesn't even fit in frame!!!! (Context: the first challenge for this month required drinking a mysterious potion that ended up making your bird grow exponentially, just like in Alice in Wonderland.)

hey finch? this alice in wonderland themed challenge is absolutely ridiculous lmao

this is up to 5,335,376. wow.

I am so glad that sweet little boy is home safe with his loving family, where he belongs, but devastated and furious in a way I cannot express that 3800 other little children are being starved, sickened and abused in ICE custody, many with no-one to fight for them.

I fully support the right to claim "slut" as a gender identity 🩷 and I say this with genuine love and appreciation.
I love my fellow sluts <3

Trump and his nazi minions are running a savage concentration camp here in Minneapolis. @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social details it:

On a job application, a checkbox labelled "I have a preferred name". The box is checked.

This seems like inclusivity, but all it does it force trans and non-binary people to out themselves. My dead name is masculine. My real name is feminine.

Just let me use my real name. We can put my dead name on the tax shit later.

An authoritarian bully with the thinnest skin imaginable

It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser.

What do you mean there was just a button that reversed wage theft? Why wasn't and isn't everyone hitting it all the time??

The Ancient War continues

Quote from article: "A major Somali shopping center called Karmel Mall closed for the day. Daycare centers were forced to close when their staff demanded the day off. Workers forced a major AT&T call center to close. The biggest nursing home in the Twin Cities metro area held mandatory all-staff meetings to threaten to fire employees who participated, but those scare tactics failed and they faced mass absenteeism. The combined population of Minneapolis and Saint Paul is less than 750,000; that Friday, we saw an estimated 100,000 people take the streets in sub-zero temperatures. It is safe to conclude that at least one out of every eight Twin Cities residents took part in the general strike."

"The leaderless character of the resistance to ICE in Minnesota is precisely what has made it effective. The everyday anarchism of the Minneapolis revolution is its greatest strength."

Amazing report from @crimethinc.com on the recent general strike in #Minneapolis. crimethinc.com/2026/02/01/c...

Omg what a great time to have always been a JKR hater! I didn't even consider that her hatred towards trans people was some sort of projection, but holy shit the biggest TERF is in the files??? Now the normie crowd might start hate her, too! Let's ruin her career and never hear of her EVER again 🤞🏻

We owe it to each other to be insufferable pains in the ass.

yup -- he's gonna tear it down.

'Reminds me of Anne Frank': Jewish seniors are offering to hide their Haitian caregivers as Trump's TPS end looms - Jewish Telegraphic Agency The end of Temporary Protected Status has Holocaust survivors offering to hide Haitian staffers, according to the CEO of a senior-living center in Florida.

“About 500 seniors live at Sinai Residences in Boca Raton, Florida, including many Holocaust survivors. Recently, some of them asked if they could hide the building’s Haitian staff in their apartments.” www.jta.org/2026/01/30/u...

omg thank u for reminding me to repost this comic today

he is an ACCESSORY. he KNEW it was a rape trafficking pedophile ring. he ASKED TO BE INVITED. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE EVER ACTUALLY WENT, HE KNEW THERE WERE YOUNG GIRLS ON THIS ISLAND GETTING ABUSED AND STAYED QUIETTTTT

can we PLEASE get the guillotines out now

Elon Musk expressed interest in visiting Jeffrey Epstein's island, newly released emails show Musk has denied numerous times that he ever visited the island and has said that he “refused” invitations.

elon musk himself said, "the acid test for justice is not the release of the files, but rather the prosecution of those who committed heinous crimes with Epstein."

so, in the name of justice, i'd like to ALSO include the prosecution of everyone ELSE in the files (excluding the victims, of course)

Like on the one hand, it's ... I dunno, reassuring? to have some confirmation

Ten years ago, it felt like things were getting better for trans folks. And then things changed. And we were like, this is coordinated. Someone *did* this, for their own evil gain

And we were right

“I hope everybody's inspired to join together as a community of artists and speak out against what's going on, and imma leave this and say fuck ICE.”
