Every dollar JK Rowling makes from Harry Potter is going into bankrolling an extortion racket issuing legal threats to organizations across the UK to purge themselves of trans people or face ruinous lawfare.

hate the fact that this art made me realize that everyone would know when Glob Herman has to poop.

File footage of me last night

"But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you, I love you. With all my heart, I love you."

I’m very sad today. Thank you to anyone who is doing the smiling for me today.

September reads. big month for audiobooks and the start of spooky szn 👻

the soundtracks for each of the twilight movies truly had no business being that good

I wish people cared about the first amendment rights of authors and artists who are getting their works banned in schools and libraries across the USA as much as they care about the rights of white male comedians to be on national TV

Thank you for this book <3

i am not surprised to see authoritarians and fascists take aim at hollywood specifically because they understand its power, and i am pained to see this happen, but i can also say this: CREATIVITY and STORYTELLING and ART cannot be stopped, not on a small scale, not on the large scale

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

A lot of you are dooming, and I get that. But it just makes me defiant AF.

They literally can't do logistically what they're trying to do unless we all acquiesce to it.

YWMTBH is an INSTANT BESTSELLER!

In this day and age, a horror novel BY and ABOUT a disabled trans man - tackling pregnancy as violence, the necessity of abortion, and the right to CHOOSE - hitting a list? It feels like a miracle.

Everyone, thank you so much 🪱

I recognize this is the LEAST important thing on the planet right now, but on top of *gestures to everything*, I can't even be excited that the Muppet Show is coming back because Disney decided to cave to authoritarianism.

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

YouTube video by Star Wars Unlimited Universe Andor: Maarva Andor tells all of Ferrix to "FIGHT THE EMPIRE"!!!!

“If could do it again I’d wake up early…“

It's so so helpful to get involved with local projects in your city and town. I can't recommend it any more highly. You meet new comrades, you get to focus on specific goals and you might even win your demands.

important to remember that you could just choose to keep your thoughts to yourself

Couple of days behind - but here’s August’s reads

Had a librarian dream come true today & got to see a drag story time that I organized come to fruition with great success at our local Pride Celebration. It was magical & impactful. Thank you Tenacious Eddie for reading!

wild when the NRA comes out against trump and starts defending trans people.

but also, the NRA is still trash.

!!!!!!!!!!!!
