For those accessing the "Contact the Governor" site, remember to select "An Active Bill" as your Topic, then select one of the bills listed on the transnews article page to disclose your concern. I recommend doing this for each bill individually if you can!

CALIFORNIANS!

you can help make our state better and safer for trans people RIGHT NOW by telling Newsom he needs to sign these bills!

We need you!

A puppy with rollerblades skedaddles across the screen. The text is written in alphabet fridge magnet letters and reads NOT THE BEST, BUT HAVIN FUN

to be honest I've always found it kinda fun to end up being a little bit crappy at whatever I try to do... Takes a lot of pressure off, and I feel like everyone can tell when you're doing something just for the love of the game

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist): the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much. you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Go in: Settings > Languages> Content Languages and make it *unset* !

Croix, a fat rabbit, laying on his side facing away. text says "no talk me, i'm tired".

Piss is negative, urine is positive

This is just me talking to my many forms on the daily

Looks like it’s my time to shine! (Hugs incoming)

I feel that too!

You have a lot going for you, so don’t beat yourself up over your self-doubt!

Needs to be said way more in the furry art community, too much of y’all see each other as competition and its gross. Uplift each other, we’re all stuck on the same smell speck boat at the end of the day

Folks with autism: You are not broken, despite what this administration is saying. You don't need a "cure." You should be receiving love, patience and understanding -- something the rest of us should be giving everyone: trans folks, immigrants, refugees, and everyone else under attack right now.

Meme from Parks and Recreation of Ron handing a paper to an officer and saying “Not to worry. I have a permit.” Followed by a closeup image of the paper being held by the officer, edited to read: “Every fictional character I’ve drawn and will draw having sex, has consented to being drawn that way. They told me themselves.”

Anyway, here’s your form of consent, Bluesky.

Would?

Y'all, please call, email, and/or write your representatives, then share WIDELY what this administration is doing to scapegoat, oppress, and violently erase trans folks. We need EVERYONE in on this.

Meanwhile, "many in Maga-land are working very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk" On Monday, JD Vance, who once called Trump "America's Hitler", , hosted Kirk's podcast from the White House and blamed the left, without evidence. Said Vance: "While our side of the aisle certainly has its crazies, it is a statistical fact that most of the lunatics in American politics today are proud members of the far left." "And by 'statistical fact', ' he means 'complete bullshit'" Kimmel corrected. In fact, the Department of Justice removed from its website a study finding that violence from far-right groups is the greatest source of domestic terror and extremist violence in the US. "Here's a question JD Vance might be able to answer: who wanted to hang the guy who was vice president before you?" Kimmel said. "Was that the liberal left? Or the toothless army who stormed the Capitol on January 6." "The president and his henchmen are doing their best to tan the flames, so they can I guess attack people on the dangerous left," Kimmel added, noting the incongruence with the right's former vision of so-called "snowflake" liberals. "Which is it?" he wondered. "Are they a bunch of sissy pickleball players because they're too scared to get hit by tennis balls? Or are they a well-organized army of commandos? Because they can't be both."

This is all he said?! This is why ABC (in response to threats from Trump's FCC) is taking Kimmel off the air?!

as times grow more severe y'all are gonna have to re-learn the advantages of not using your resl name on socisl media.

Furthermore you do not in fact have to yap about your job using identifiable information.

Flat illustration from 2022 of owls perched on a branch at night against a dark blue sky. The owls decrease in size as they get close stacked in front, while also growing bright orange. The effect resembles a flame. The owls, back to front (large to small) are Great Gray, Great Horned, Long-eared, Screech, and Saw-whet.
