Just want to gently throw it out there that if you are feeling overwhelmed right now it’s ok to log off. Everyone is emoting deeply onto the timeline and you’re not obligated to witness it in an endless scroll. Take a break if you need to. Protect your heart. ❤️

Miss Major, one of the mothers of the trans liberation movement, has been in the hospital for 10 days with sepsis and a blood clot. She has looked out for us for generations, now it’s time to look out for her. Donate if you can: fundly.com/missmajor

There’s food in the markets in Gaza and more merchants are taking electronic payments so it’s a good day to donate

Given the current emergency situation, we must keep our comments brief and focused. We kindly request that you and anyone who sees this share our post on our page. We are struggling with fundraising and are now confronted with an urgent need to ensure the safety of trans women.

Ra’il is an IRL friend of mine whose work I’ve witnessed *in real time* over the last decade-and-a-half. This thread honors them and their work properly.
dopegirlfresh.blacksky.app Lenée (she/ her) says #ProtectJhordin @dopegirlfresh.blacksky.app · Jul 23
- because of all these things and more, Ra’il hasn’t been able to get a solid foothold in the very spaces built on their fucking back. this is untenable. if you have access to share with them, DO THAT SHIT.
- if someone asks you about Ra’il, point them here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%27il...

One thing you can do Right Now is be extremely vocal when you have librarians stocking inclusive collections. Call and tell them how happy you are, show up to board meetings. Bc the other side is *always* complaining and doing it in an organized way.

also you can donate to Lavonnia Moore here:

🇰🇪 What’s happening in Kenya isn’t just protest!
It’s a cry for dignity.
A teacher dies in police custody. A year since 60+ were killed for opposing unjust taxes.
Today, youth were back in the streets mourning, marching, risking bullets for a future worth living.
#KenyaProtests #JusticeForOjwang
Woman Standing in Protest Before Flames A fearless Kenyan woman (Hanifa) in a black abaya stands tall with her arms raised in an X symbol of resistance, as thick black smoke and flames erupt from a burning barricade behind her during the June 25, 2025 protests. Her face is painted with the national flag, and her eyes radiate defiance against state violence, economic oppression, and police brutality. The haunting backdrop of Nairobi’s chaos marks the one-year anniversary of the deadly finance bill uprising. #KenyaProtests #DefendDemocracy #JusticeForOjwang #625NeverForget #AfricanResistance Protesters occupy Nairobi’s city streets and sit defiantly under a crowded highway overpass as part of Kenya's June 25, 2025 demonstrations. Blue plastic chairs dot the road—an eerie calm amid rising tensions with police forces nearby. Above them, more demonstrators line the bridge, silently watching, demanding accountability, justice, and reform. #OccupyNairobi #KenyaRising #EndPoliceBrutality #JusticeFor625 A powerful aerial view of thousands of young Kenyans marching down a tree-lined road in Nairobi on June 25, 2025, marking the anniversary of deadly anti-tax protests. United in silence and defiance, the crowd demands justice for police brutality victims like Albert Ojwang. The peaceful protest symbolizes a youth-led revolution against government oppression, economic injustice, and state violence. #KenyaProtests #YouthUprising #JusticeForOjwang #254NeverForget Kenyan youth with Kenyan flag standing on top of road signal post during the Genz remembrance protest against corruption,police brutality and high taxes as Iran and Israel tension escalate,the Kenyan youth are on the streets to remember those brutally killed the same time last year under hashtag #wantam Today is today #naamdamano and so on they showed up in large numbers to match for their fallen comrades

Artists and small business owners who use Stripe- there's a new "AI" feature for payment disputes, it's auto-enabled and will charge a 30% fee if you win a dispute using it. You might want to turn this off. I personally don't trust a slop feature to handle disputes for me either.
screencap of an email that reads: Hello, We’re excited to share that you’ll get early access to Smart Disputes starting July 2025. We’ll automatically enable this new product on your account DeviledDobes. Smart Disputes will help you save time managing eligible disputes on card transactions and recover revenue - with no action needed from you. Benefits to you Managing disputes is time-consuming, and it can be difficult to know what evidence to submit. Smart Disputes helps: Save time: We automatically compile evidence and respond to disputes, so you don’t have to spend time fighting them. Recover revenue: Our evidence is compiled using AI trained on real dispute data from the more than $1 trillion in payments Stripe processes annually, to help you recover disputed revenue. Get started with no integration required: Unlike other automated dispute management solutions, Smart Disputes is built into Stripe so there’s no extra work to integrate. Part 2 of the email which reads: How it works We’ll notify you when you receive an eligible dispute on a card transaction and automatically compile evidence for you. If you don’t take action before the dispute deadline, Stripe will automatically submit this evidence on your behalf. You can always choose to accept the dispute or counter it manually before the deadline. Only pay when you win If you win a dispute using Smart Disputes, you’ll pay 30% of the recovered disputed amount. If you don’t win, then no fees for Smart Disputes apply. The fee for receiving a dispute still applies to all disputes, including ones countered with Smart Disputes. How to turn off auto-submission If you don’t want to use Smart Disputes, then you can turn off auto-submission in your Dashboard. If you opt out, you can still manually submit evidence generated by Smart Disputes once it is enabled for your account. Questions? Please visit our support site—we’re here to help.

@erinchack viral tweet: america is wrong about everything except fahrenheit. farenheit is the correct way to measure temperature. fahrenheit is like "man, it's so hot out. it's gotta be like.......100 hots."
