Some real tough love for ya'll coming from a Native person: he is making America 'great' again. This is what *made America great*. The misinformation. The terror. The breaking of laws. The cruelty. The genocide. The slavery.
What we - need - to do is make "America" Turtle Island again.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a “miniaturist” when I grew up. I thought it was a job. My mother told me that it wasn’t, that it was more of a hobby.

Just a little reminder that the Association of German National Jews and The German Vanguard: German Jewish Followers supported Hitler and the Nazis . . .
until those organisations were outlawed in 1935 and the leaders of those groups were arrested or forced into exile.

1) such important insights about navigating the alienation that comes with naming a problem
2) oh god, I can see how this is CATNIP for folks who don't want to be accountable for the conflict they generate around them.

democrats and republicans don't have to matter anymore if we don't let them.
if they're unweaving what it is, it's our duty to weave another future. those in power do not see a true way forward. it is our duty. all we need is each other. they need us. not the other way around.

Not saying this out of anger, but as a fact: when high-profile actors like John Lithgow take roles in the Harry Potter series, they’re saying their fame matters more to them than trans people—right at the moment when we need real allies willing to risk themselves alongside us more then ever.
