I'm a trans person w/ a trans kid & we lose trans siblings every year to hateful violence. On Trans Day of Remembrance we're called not only to collectively mourn those we've lost, but to renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who are still here.

This is frankly one of the worst things Donald Trump has ever posted, which is really saying something
Hegseth is now the Secretary of War, which is fitting I guess as RFK jr is basically the Secretary of Pestilence. We just need Famine and Death to round it out.
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment.
Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.
F*ck‼️
Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.
just saw someone sincerely arguing that they need AI bc they don't have "natural" artistic talent and idk how to make you understand that nobody comes by this shit naturally. it's just...work. it's being bad at it for a really, really, really long time. it's intention, pursued over time! wtf!!!
We could have had cancer vaccines, and instead the United States will contribute nothing whatsoever to mRNA research, condemning millions of people worldwide to unnecessary illness and death
A lot of people are learning that cowardice won’t save them in real time. Might as well be brave.
im serious here, you really do need to find the things that make you happy. You cannot sit there and consume the horrors on a daily basis. Its not healthy. You are not wrong for taking the time to do the things you enjoy

“Improper ideology”? Get fucked.
This is becoming more and more relevant by the day.

The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt
“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”
Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Thank you!
No one elected you to enable Donald Trump
An open letter to my US Senators—Gary Peters and Elissa Slotkin of Michigan.
One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them.
Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is.
Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙
Pay them.
