Less than ONE-TENTH OF ONE PERCENT of the past decade's mass shootings — were committed by trans/nonbinary people. Singling out trans people is nothing more than fascist scapegoating and a pretext to state violence.

In the past five days, I have seen more Monarch butterflies than I've seen in four years. There is so much milkweed in the yard for them. It's fantastic they've finally found it!

Trump has radically pushed the idea - as a government policy - that to be against Israel and Netanyahu, is to be antisemitic. This makes a very large number of Jews - and many, many rational observers of Israel - antisemitic
