1/8 Trump just told Americans who have bodies that sometimes get sick (and prefer not to die) to #GoFundYourself!

So we did.

We’ve launched a $723B GoFundMe to replace what he’s stealing from Medicaid.

Every $10 cancels $1K in medical debt.

WaPo quote: β€œA Washington Post review of Kennedy's public appearances found he also promoted these centers as particularly beneficial for
Black youth.
"Every Black kid is now just standard put on Adderall, on SSRIs, benzos which are known to induce violence and those kids are going to have a chance to go somewhere and get re-parented, to live in a community where there'll be no cellphones, no screens. You'll actually have to talk to people," Kennedy said in a June 2024 episode of the 19Keys online show”

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get β€œre-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Assuming all fanfiction is written poorly really just shows you've never been caught in the chokehold of a 150k slowburn that changed the course of your life at 2:40am written by someone whose username has 4 Zs in it and they only wrote one fic and then vanished like an ethereal legend.

Students protest movements are often dismissed as β€œentitled kids who don’t understand.” It’s a bad take. Just consider their historical track record of getting it right:
Abolition βœ…
Civil Rights βœ…
Vietnam βœ…
Feminism βœ…
Anti-Apartheid βœ…
LGBTQ+ Rights βœ…
Climate Change βœ…
Gazaβ€”the ICC seems to think so

Trans Journalist Imara Jones: 'There's Something Wrong With the Character of This Country' "There’s something wrong with the character of this country." Trans journalist Imara Jones on why a small population was put at risk to win an election.

. @imarajones.bsky.social: "America likes to forget its history to see itself as innocent. But if you don’t reckon with the dark side of the national character, it will reemerge. And we never do that. That’s really sad and it’s really tragic."

To change the world, transform narrative oceans by Bridgit Antoinette Evans

I read this piece from @bridgitaevans.bsky.social last year and it still sticks with me.

"We need to challenge our impulse to change 'the narrative' on a particular issue, and instead embrace the work of transforming whole narrative oceans."

Trans Journalists Association Promoting more accurate, nuanced coverage of trans issues and communities in the media. Supporting gender-expansive journalists in their careers.

Dear Editors β€” If you’re considering publishing an article about issues related to transgender people, then perhaps you should consider assigning that article to a transgender journalist. Don’t have any transgender journalists in your newsroom?

@transjournalists.org has several valuable resources:

*I’ll post later for everyone*

The #blacksky shifts are as follows;

Morning: positive affirmations/ praise & worship

Afternoon: news and updates

Evening: comedic relief/ venting

Nights: spicy time/ Adult content

I trust everyone knows their roles & the responsibilities that come along with it

Unpacking the Republican Victory Podcast Episode Β· TransLash Podcast with Imara Jones Β· 11/07/2024 Β· 40m

A good antidote to all of the bogus post-election analysis is my deep dive with political journalist @transscribe.bsky.social. We unpack why blaming trans people for the election result will get the Democratic Party no where and so much more.
