It's very simple.

You buy anything HP, you are funding her evil shit.

Keep your "yeah but no but" to yourself. I don't want to hear it.
A portion of every dollar spent on Harry Potter merchandise goes to anti-transgender campaigns.

Look, I know you guys are in all kinds of trauma right now but let's not forget all the Presidents who actively encouraged the eradication of the First Nations and supported slavery. America before Trump wasn't a freedom-loving egalitarian Golden Age. Myths like that are what got us where we are.
Before the horrific floods in Texas, 5 former National Weather Serice directors warned Trump that continued cuts to the budget would result in people's deaths.

All presidents have an ego, we've just never had one that required human sacrifice to feed his.

You know what to do.
1. The Department of Health and Human Services has launched a national "snitch form" to report gender affirming care providers.

The last few times state Republicans did this, they were overloaded with memes and Bee Movie scripts.

The latest from S. Baum.

The new HHS guidance encourages people to snitch on trans-affirming health care providers—including in instances that do not violate the law.

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.
2. A memo distributed by NSA leadership to its staff says that on February 10, all NSA websites and internal network pages that contain banned words will be deleted.

This is the list of 27 banned words distributed to NSA staff:

Incredible.
Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

“People in Scotland have a queer idea of the arts. They think you can be an artist in your spare time, though nobody expects you to be a spare-time dustman, engineer, lawyer or brain surgeon.”

—Alasdair Gray, LANARK (Book I, Ch. 20: “Employers”)

Not just Scotland: 👇
Let me tell you about the weird business that delivers art into our lives, and the impact it has on the long-term careers of artists. This is a thread prompted by yet another article on authors' incomes, and the inevitable reactions from the 'people-would-pay-if-it-was-worth-it-to-them' brigade. 1/

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

DEI does not mean hiring unqualified folks simply because their skin color isn't white or they don't have a penis.

DEI means reaching out and making sure that QUALIFIED folks from marginalized communities are given the same opportunity to fill an opening.
