John S - He/Him🩷💜💙 🏳️‍🌈

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously

But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

Keep that same energy of support for her

Are we acting like he's gonna follow this court ruling...

Because he's actually followed so many of them...

Thanks #SCOTUS for your ruling on Trump V. USA...

I feel like some important context is missing...

Is #3 a meeting to view or create?

Rule of law is ‘endangered,’ chief justice says Speaking at Georgetown Law, Chief Justice John Roberts denounced “ad hominem” criticism of the justices.

It's almost as if granting a criminal blanket immunity was a bad idea.

Weeping and angry with my UK trans sisters, brothers, and siblings today. Their supreme court just stripped them of their legal rights, declaring that AGAB/ASAB is their legal sex. No trans person was consulted, and JK Rowling personally funded the group that pushed the decision through.

Take a white guy’s favorite team and pair them with a bad ref, and suddenly, that guy understands systematic injustice

A reminder.

Nope.

Our trans kin are owed an apology by spineless sycophantic politicians.

Do you know what we call the politicians who cozied up to the Nazis to stay close to power? Nazis... they are called Nazis.

Does anyone in the GOP have a spine?

It seems like the political elite are starting to feel like normal, everyday Americans... let alone those most oppressed and ostracized but society (whose very existence is being made illegal)...

That is exceptionally rude...

Completely unnecessary...

One picture contains helpful material for the entire food chain... and the other is a bunch of MAGAts...

I never thought I’d agree with Donald, but here we are.

Impeach.

2 knee high socks completed for my eldest. Two small skeins of merino in colorway "Dreamsicle". Toe, heel and cuff in Patons Kroy Sock yarn.
It was only 215 or so rounds each sock...
Toe up, short row heel, 2x1 rib for 20 rows, lace bind off.

Things I'm learning no one wants to buy:

-bisexual pride hats
-knitting patterns

what DO you want to buy from my shop? what would you buy from me?

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Not ironic, however, is the safe landing of the US Air Force C-37B in Moscow...

I know we're all wrestling with the same fears and uncertainty rn and I just want to state for the record that NOT being okay right now is probably the only appropriate state of being.

So... I'm interpreting that to also show that DudeBro had gender affirming surgical care...

I thought they were against that...

Just catching up and only a couple minutes into the most recent episode.

REALLY glad y'all got to go to Boston!

They would cheer...

Yes folks please process that what’s happening right now is that Mr Nazi Salute has access to the personal information of every Jew in America, along with every person who gets/has gotten disability benefits, and so on

The Holocaust was an administrative process that included lists of targets

Obviously, the removal of the T from the LGB at the state department has been much discussed, but the QIA+ part matters too. Intersex people have discussed that more eloquently than I could, but as a Q and an A…I’m worried.

Small thread with tw for aphobia and queerphobia.

Turning off socials for the day. Can't deal with watching my faith be branded unconstitutional snake oil by the sitting admin... and the *gestures vaguely in the direction of the dumpster fire the last 2 wks has been*

This is exactly what he wanted.

Might see y'all tomorrow... Might knit instead.

If you support the current administration and their policies, your claims of supporting the people they target are... inaccurate at best.
