A yellow, orang and red ombre infographic with a white box in the middle that contains black text. There are red hearts and flowers on the side of the text box. It reads: Fernando is a disabled Black transmasc trying to survive Long Covid without a proper support system. After developing long covid, fibromyalgia, arthritis and heart problems Fernando went through a period of homelessness that resulted in abuse and the lost of it's beloved cat, Indigoe. It was eventually able to secure housing but it's health continued to decline after Fernando developed a breast lump and extreme gastrointestinal issues. It was eventually  forced to stop caring for it's cats due to the lack of support while sick. Fernando is currently trying to recover while awaitng a consultation for breast removal in Feburay. In the meantime it needs help surviving because becoming  homeless while sick in Arizona is a death sentence.

Hey! If you gave money and effort to the definitely-not-a-nazi blackwater guy maybe next time you're tempted to give money to a politician give it to mutual aid, a Palestinian, a Black trans person, anyone other than a politician, guaranteed to not be accidentally making a nazi rich!

β€œIt takes a certain level of maturity to work in government…for instance sexual harassment is mature, and calling it out immature.” - Andrew Cuomo

wow. zohran brought one of cuomo’s accusers, charlotte bennett, to the mayoral debate. he asked cuomo what he would say to his 13 accusers of sexual harassment. cuomo said it takes β€œa certain level of maturity to work in government” and that the cases were resolved anyway. fucking scum.

I am grateful to Ezra Klein for demonstrating over and over how liberals got us here. The constant appeal to the right by throwing away both principles and the most marginalized. Constantly coming around to an issue too late & only after you’ve helped destroy actual opposition. He’s a case study.

A tweet, in which Noah Smith asserts, "Remember: Before social media, you would never have seen people saying things like this, or seen people approving of it. It would all be official condemnations and condolences. 

Social media is what unleashed the hate and chaos from the lowest depths of our society." in response to a tweet which says, "Maybe Charlie Kirk shouldn’t have spent years being a hateful demagogic fascist and this wouldn’t have happened. Maybe he should take some personal responsibility."

Unsurprisingly, the thing Noah Smith is saying is obviously not true.

Look at reports on the reaction to the assassination of MLK... "glee, satisfaction and weeping in equal parts" (www.nytimes.com/2018/04/02/r...) as the Smithsonian notes "some actually celebrated" (nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stor...).

Florida AG Subpoenas Venue For A List Of Guests Who Attended A Drag Show Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier wants to intimidate drag queens and gay bars. It’s not going as planned.

1. Florida has subpoenaed a drag bar for a list of attendees to a drag show, in what could be a new first for anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation.

Their goal is to end drag in the state.

To defend ourselves from medical gaslighting and bad treatment by doctors, patients are told β€œdon’t be afraid to speak up,” β€œstand up for yourself,” β€œadvocate!”

Have you ever had to advocate for yourself in a medical appointment, only to be treated WORSE because of it?

I agree, and human intuition is fallible too, as we saw in this debacle. The moderation features are driven by human actions.

According to @moderation.bsky.app real Palestinians desperate to survive are committing the crime of β€œdisrupting the user experience.” This is the type of dystopian shit we have come to expect from tech bros. Maybe they need to stop disrupting the Palestinians’ experience?

Racist cunt who forced Palestinians to jump through hoops to prove they’re real won’t subject himself to the same indignities? I’m so shocked. The hysteria around this was disgusting and in the same vein of β€˜Pallywood’ genocide denial. So many big accounts still follow and repost this guy too
