Artists, as ever, are braver than politicians.

the government can try to erase us but immigrants, people of color, queer people, trans people, WOMEN make the world beautiful and they can’t take us away

“DEI IS NOT A THREAT, IT IS A GIFT” Alicia Keys, the artist you are ✨💓

The Grammys this year is like the best evidence that queer people create the magic that shapes our world. Queer art is transformative. And no attempt to erase queer and trans people will ever stop our art from reaching you.

Chappell and Doechii being queer and eating the MOST is not a fucking coincidence

“I know there’s some black girl, so many black women watching me right now. And I wanna tell you, you can do it. Anything is possible. Don’t allow anybody to project any stereotypes on you”

— Doechii accepting her first #GRAMMYs  award.

Seeing a lesbian be recognized like this at the Grammy’s makes me so emotional. We are the most beautiful, powerful, loving community

in the face of this administration’s commitment to hate and bigotry, to see women and especially black and queer women dominating the grammy’s tonight is a reminder of our power and impact.

Trans folks have always been here (and have always served in the military). Albert Cashier was assigned female at birth but lived as a man. In 1862, he enlisted in the army and fought in multiple battles in the Civil War. 1/2

is there already a u.s. boycott divest and sanction list or app somewhere to help us avoid pro-fascist companies?

How a Queer Couple Masterminded a Nazi Resistance Campaign Creativity may be hard to define, but it’s sometimes even harder to attribute. The museum mistaking a minor work for a masterpiece or the collector discovering a forgery may measure provenance in m…

Thinking a lot about Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore right now ❤️‍🩹

one day when this is all over — and it will be — i will personally never forget the people, famous or otherwise, who jumped on board with fascism because it was the easier thing to do at the time

Where's the lie?

Conservatives are afraid of nonbinary people because they can’t use gender violence to control women if gender is made up.

does this work here too? #transrightsarehumanrights #protecttransyouth #queerjoy #queerartist

I just found out that Octavia Butler 1) read mostly nonfiction to inspire her work and 2) often listened to audiobooks instead of reading and I feel SOOOO validated

Make sure you buy banned books. Get a library card and borrow banned books. Read banned books.

To be absolutely clear, anti-trans discourse is “not-see” discourse

queer existence is resistance

For folks in the US, I can't emphasize enough how important it is to support queer art over the next few years. Project 2025 seeks to label queer art pornographic and those who make or distribute it pornographers and sex offenders. We can't roll over and accept that. Queer art will live forever.

Buy queer books. Support queer creators.

Now, more than ever.

ACT UP, 1990

The most important thing we need as queer folks to survive this shit is joy. Joy is resistance. Joy and community. We need to center queer joy. And I promise I’m going to remind you often in the years ahead. But before we can do that, we have to let ourselves weep. Please, grieve.

Reminder for everyone: Get a library card. Visit your local library. Check out books (especially banned books). Use the other resources. Attend library events. Utilize an important part of your community that is FREE! Don't let them forget its importance. #booksky 📚💙

hey just wondering is it normal to feel like you’re on the verge of a panic attack for more than 24 hours straight

No, really, it’s FINE, I’m doing great, I really want to keep making accounts on new social media platforms and doomscrolling until my watch gives me a heart rate notification I love it

where all the tiktok refugee starter packs at

Only in America do you get a ban on an app before you do on assault weapons.
