hey I like that we're all posting thru it but I also wanted to say, in case anybody else is feeling it, that I'm pretty scared and genuinely think that we've passed a real rubicon in the past week or so and that being at the mercy of a handful of dumbfuck lunatics really does a number on your soul.

I thought this was, idk, some sort of vibes based shitpost for about ten posts. does anyone else feel like the whole world is just melting? everything is wrong lately. everything is getting wrong and I'm simply not sure what, if anything, we can do about it.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Remember right after ICE murdered Renee Good when they shot a second person, this time in the leg? They put out an elaborate story about the man assaulting ICE agents, ramming them, etc.

Only one problem: it was all a lie, as shown by multiple videos and the transcripts of calls to 911.

ICE lies.

Our fundraiser is off to a great start, and I have just the thing to keep up the momentum: A crudely drawn graphic that is definitely NOT phallic.

I want to encourage folks to support @assignedmedia.org, an independent outlet doing *crucial* work. Sure, I am biased somewhat because I do write for them ... but I'm also just an AM reader, reliant on their coverage to navigate this horrifying world.

We're not the only trans news site, but our niche of diligently following all the old school journalistic ethics while still being absolutely committed to serving the trans community is a special one, one that deserves to be funded.
