they must be hurting because even tho I unsubbed from them (like three times) I got ANOTHER email a couple days ago.

no, sticker mule. your man tried to post through it and we all watched. no.
So Sticker Mule scrubbed all their pro-trump posts from their insta and they’re deleting comments that bring it up fast af. This is ur reminder they had a 100+ foot pro-trump sign installed on their building just 6 months ago. NO TAKE BACKS, ANTHONY. WE MEMBA.

so, stephanie turner—the fencer who took a knee & went on a media tour about it—cost a trans girl the chance to participate in society & did it for $5,000 cash, in addition to, i assume, paid speaking gigs with folks like riley gaines.

this is grifting. turner is a grifter. also a garbage person.

Lots more to say than would fit in this piece, but I hope it can help disrupt the stereotype of spoken word as cringey/corny because (1) a whole lot of it isn't, and (2) even the stuff that is reminds us of art as practice, as process, as community-building, not just "content." #NationalPoetryMonth
When the dominant culture actively discourages creativity and community, it is on us to keep building and supporting spaces that cultivate them.

i cannot believe youths are getting their misinformation from insta instead of getting their misinformation from cnn
I've been asking young people (18-21) what they think about current politics and how they get info, and it's incredible how they have absolutely zero input from mass media outside insta/tiktok and how that's driving their political and pop culture views

thankfully I'm the flavor of autism that when I hear someone complaining about hearing Spanish spoken at the grocery store I call people out on it.

Like no they're just talking about what to buy and family stuff usually, you're the one talking bad about the people around you.
I absolutely abhor and despise monolingual normative culture in the US.
Let me listen to Japanese rock, Russian post punk, German rap, and whatever tf else. I'm having a great time and you would be too if you weren't paranoid about diff languages bc "omg what are they talking about it must be bad"

People made fun of me growing up for listening to music in different languages, mostly for racist and stupid reasons. "How do you know what they're saying?" I look it up if I want to know, but you can get a feel for music even without words, and with them, tone and delivery matters.

This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

Happy Confederates Lost Day, remember Fuck the Confederates, slavery is bad, and they were all a bunch of racist white supremacists trying to keep the institution of slavery alive not just because of economic reasons, but because they truly thought slavery was a god given right for white people,

Also, maybe if the entire world were not directed at telling us that "sex is what makes us human" and we must want sex no matter what, we wouldn't feel the need to tell you that we don't want it. For me, saying I'm ace is no more oversharing than saying I don't like mustard.
The thing about some popular author insulting asexual people is nothing she said hasn't been said *directly to me* before by other popular authors. The hatred of aces isn't new.

Fix your hearts. We're not leaving.

This is an organised abuse ring, posed as raising concerns for children - in reality the concerns of violent and entitled adults who believe children are their chattel who they should be allowed to control and dominate, rather than have a responsibility to raise and support.

A top anti-abortion leader in the state says abortion patients should be prosecuted under his new bill to classify having an abortion as homicide: “Women openly boasting about abortions...those women are not victims. Nobody by nature of being a woman should be immune from prosecution.”

The problem is that historically, cis people have gone to tremendous lengths to destroy points of continuity in the transgender community (see everything I've cited and more), and particularly this has been an exercise in transmisogyny of grotesque levels.

The last time fascism gained power, the fascists were furious about Trans too.

In 1931 the first sex change operations were successful in Germany.

In 1933, Hitler begins his rise to official German government power, and laws banning transgender were strictly enforced.

Trump eliminated the CDC’s Child Abuse, Neglect, and Adversity Team, which studied the effects of childhood trauma and promoted policies to keep kids safe.

For a 'Pro-Life' administration, they don't seem to care much for our childrens' well-being.

Oh look, what started as “what about the parents rights?” Turned into attempted punishment of the parents for not agreeing with Republicans. Who would have thought?
