CONGRATS TO THE OVERWATCH TEAM ON UNIONIZATION!!! #ABetterABK 💙

Absolutely chilling and infuriating. The government kidnapped this man from his home and refused to share basic information with his family or lawyer, as punishment for his free speech. This is a blaring sign of authoritarian takeover and we've all got to recognize it as such.

Dignity by Veruschka Zarate, a quilt of a powerful and colorful indigenous woman

This week, there’s a big modern quilting convention happening in Phoenix (called QuiltCon). Look at this stunning quilt that won best in show. I did NOT make this, but I wanted to show the incredible art that is made by quilters.

can't stress enough how much I support Donald Trump receiving the fruits of this Musk/Boeing collab without further delay, they should absolutely deliver this sooner, move fast and break shit, by all means

Trump administration killed a research program for disabled students The Department of Education had awarded a grant to survey to research how to help students with disabilities transition to adulthood. Eric Garcia reports how the program was then stopped

NEW: You may have seen that screenshot of a program for students with disabilities transitioning to adulthood being canceled under the Trump administration. The real story is so much deeper. 1/

i missed the new eden articles and doc, i’m just catching up now. why did it take so fucking long when we were spreading 2 of the lawyers names the day after? its upsetting

DOGE Has ‘God Mode’ Access to Government Data The president’s special commission now has an unprecedented ability to view and manipulate information at many federal agencies.

NEW: Two weeks ago gov't IT experts warned us that the worst case scenario would be if DOGE got full admin access to agency systems. We can report at at least one agency DOGE has unfettered "god mode" access. Our latest: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

Lawyer in Saudi trans student's suicide note had embassy links Eden Knight had wanted a new life in the US but was persuaded home, according to her final X post.

I hope the inhumans who caused Eden's death know how many people will not tolerate what they did, I hope they spend every day from the moment they wake up looking over their shoulder in abject fear and knowing there's a good reason they do. Justice for Eden Knight 🔆 www.bbc.com/news/article...

Lawyer in Saudi trans student's suicide note had embassy links Eden Knight had wanted a new life in the US but was persuaded home, according to her final X post.

It's so, so late it's heartbreaking, but this is very good reporting by the BBC identifying the Harvard-trained Saudi lawyer responsible for the forced detransition and eventual death by suicide of Eden Knight.

i’m going to sneak in so many r76 and moicy crumbs

this is our chance yall. lets get hired #owlore

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

sewcialism ftw

Yesterday I decided that instead of other despairing shit I was going to take the next few years to learn how to do more stuff. Repair, clothing mending, more types of cooking and baking, first aid, woodwork, whatever. Practical and universal stuff to lean into being part of a community.

it is never okay to misgender someone no matter how much of an asshole they are

look at what’s happening right now - if you make your acceptance of someone’s gender conditional on how much you like them, you are contributing to the attempted eradication of trans people
