If you're in Illinois and:

- Palestinian, or protesting the genocide in Occupied Palestine; or

- trans, or protesting for trans rights;

and you are arrested or discriminated against, I can represent you pro bono. Please email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. I will take as many cases as I can.

This is why I don’t forgive

This lady is old enough to remember this country turning BOATS of Jews away to die at Hitlers hands while accepting β€œcontrite” scientists

She shouldn’t care about nothing but outliving these bastards and enjoying her time left

People are losing the spirit of the Ides of March. It's not about just stabbing. It's about coming together to stab in groups

What we are all experiencing is called "resilience targeting." It is a deliberate attack favored by many of todays shitlords, and is a fairly well known theory in disinfo and climate circles; it's just that everyone seems to be in denial that it's an attack. Today might be a good day to read up

A screenshot of text that reads in part: "Robert F. Kennedy Jr. [00:17:19] And we’ve in fact, said at the USDA, that they should consider maybe the possibility of letting it run through the flock so that we can identify the birds and preserve the birds that are immune to it. The vaccines do not– there’s no indication that those vaccines actually provide sterilizing immunity and all three of my health agencies, NIH, CDC, and FDA, the acting heads of those agencies have all recommended against the use of the bird flu vaccine for that particular genotype, because the vaccine could actually promote antigenic shift, which means you’re turning those birds into mutant factories. And that could actually accelerate the jump to human beings. There’s never in history that we know of, bird flu’s been around for a hundred years. There’s never been human to human transmission."

In a change from Biden administration

HHS Secy Kennedy told Fox this week that health agencies are now opposed to use of bird flu vaccine in poultry, citing antigenic shift worries

"means you’re turning those birds into mutant factories"

We simply do not have to sacrifice the rights of trans people to save rights elsewhere and anybody that tells you otherwise is a fascist

A Sensitive Complex Housing a CIA Facility Was on GSA's List of US Properties for Sale Plans to redevelop a Northern Virginia warehouse site have long been complicated by the area’s worst-kept secretβ€”the presence of a CIA facility. The GSA put the site up for sale anyway.

β€œI am not saying it’s CIA or not,” a former intelligence analyst who worked at Langley for more than a decade tells WIRED. β€œBut it’s reckless that this information is out there at all. It speaks to the fact that these guys have no interest in even understanding government operations.”

NEW: A now-deleted list containing hundreds of US government properties that the General Services Administration (GSA) plans to sell includes most of a sprawling, highly sensitive federal complex in Springfield, Virginia that also houses a secretive CIA facility, WIRED has learned.

Americans’ Complex Views on Gender Identity and Transgender Issues Most favor protecting trans people from discrimination, but fewer support policies related to medical care for gender transitions; many are uneasy with the pace of change on trans issues.

It's also REALLY notable that at least in 2022, prohibiting trans kids from playing on sports teams that aligned with their gender identity wasn't an 80-20, 70-30, or even 60-40 issue.

And broadly, the majority wanted to PROTECT trans people from discrimination.

cis folks,

please do not let us die. please stand up for us.

outside of contacting your reps, please say something when a family member or friend says something abhorrent about trans people (especially youth)

it starts by letting assholes know that everyone else does not think like them

please.

Last week, Republicans voted to gut Medicaid and take away healthcare from 8-year-old kids like William.

Don’t let them lie to you. This is what they voted for.

But we still have a chance to stop it.

BREAKING: A judge blocked President Trump's executive order targeting access to gender-affirming care for trans people under 19 years old nationwide.

This is the second time this discriminatory executive order has been put on hold in our legal challenge against it.

Measles is caused by a virus.

There are no antivirals for illness.

Treatment is symptom management & supportive care.

Treatment is NOT:
β€’ antibiotics (it’s a virus)
β€’ unproven wellness products
β€’ cod liver oil, β€œnutrition hacks,” or supplements.

We can prevent measles:
with the MMR vaccine.

A drawing of Toorurii’s ocs Platina (left) and Agape (right) in the form of their angel/demon counterparts. Platina, who was originally a goat-like Greed demon, is now a bird-like Saturn Angel. Agape, previously a Cupid, is now depicted as an Incubus. 

Beside each of them are tags identifying the switch they underwent. 

Toorurii’s signature is in the upper left. 

In the middle bottom, it says DO NOT USE. NO REPOSTS. I’m talking to YOU Pinterest user 🫡

We Interrupt This Transition by Kerry Ann Boyko This queer comedy novel is a darkly humorous satire of gender politics and the entertainment industry

Oh, hey #transwriters and #queerwriters - I wrote something! And it's on Itch (digital) and Amazon (hardcover)

And I'm shamelessly self-promoting my debut satirical trans/queer novel.
