There is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, that I would accidentally almost paste in the search field of Google maps that justifies my iPhone asking every single time if I would like to allow paste. Yes, allow it today, allow it forever, stop asking me for the love of God

🧵 Big-tent insight from my friend @blairhodges.bsky.social on how and why James Talarico is using progressive theology to sell progressive policy in Texas. Context is a debate on whether this blurs the very church-state separation Talarico says he supports. /1

lol

Teeth

I hope every single fingerprint of any change he makes to any national building is erased as soon as he's out

I thought DEI was supposed to be real bad too

Lyrics of the song

RIP Ozzy! 🪦🤘

YouTube video by Ozzy Osbourne - Topic See You on the Other Side

I learned that I shouldn't be so quick to categorize and dismiss media based on such a rigid and stilted moral calculus as "good versus evil." The world is much more rich than that.

I couldn't help but think of it, and my brother, when Ozzy passed to that other side.

(It also didn't hurt that the drum beat was catchy AF, and being a drummer myself you better believe I loved to figure it out and play it...)

"See You On The Other Side." He turned it up loud one night, driving me home from his high school band concert. It was dark and raining. I was shocked because the song gave me chills, in a GOOD way. The way I associated at the time with a spiritual experience—a goosebump-inducing warmth in my body.

A white Honda cr-X car.

The cover of Ozzy Osbourne's album. It shows the dark outline of a man, and covering his body are disturbing images of eyeballs and teeth and other things.

Sometimes when Spence would give me a ride in his Honda CR-X he'd blast the Ozzmosis album through his enormous sound system, exposing my virgin ears to greater and greater danger. I saw that album cover. It was clearly demonic!

But then there was a song on that album...

I must have been like 14 years old when I became aware that my older brother Spence had started listening to the devil's music. Our basement bedrooms were directly across from each other, so I could hear his CD player blasting someone called "Ozzy." Satanic stuff!! 1/x 🧵

I do not care that you are not “surprised.” Please. You have no idea how tiresome it is when you post that something horrible, fascist, authoritarian is “not surprising.” Nothing is “surprising” anymore. But a lot of it is horrible and frightening. Let’s deal with it together.

maybe he's dyi*g quickly

It's a person who never has time for a wife

Birds of a feather etc

Time to look into Greg's history

If this is true this is yet another impeachable offense. Unbelievable.

YES read the whole mini thread

This was where I worked. This was where research showed that BPA harmed babies, Pesticides created 6 legged frogs and PCBs cause cancer among other things. The EPA is a superhero from protecting human health and the health of our water and air. Ask WHY they would shut this down?

Amazing, Biden can’t forgive student loans but Trump can dismantle a cabinet department established by law

Ready for her to DISRESPECTFULLY dissent

hey! question for fellow trans people especially:

what are the *worst things* that (cis) therapists / doctors / other such gatekeepers have said to you? in clinical settings etc.

signal boosting encouraged. i'm curious to hear your ... nightmare stories. you can also email me through my site ...

Yep. They continue to demonize it in this very article. Compare how much space is given to the transphobic ideologues to the people who are on the side of actual science.

Azeen's reporting, yet again, rhetorically favors the anti-science anti-medicine anti-trans ideologues. This is just more transphobic shot from the Times.

It looks interesting. But honestly I can't stand the NYT anymore. Its coverage of trans folks is inexcusably terrible and dangerous

Such a jerk

I hate the times so much now
