1/8 Trump just told Americans who have bodies that sometimes get sick (and prefer not to die) to #GoFundYourself!

So we did.

We’ve launched a $723B GoFundMe to replace what he’s stealing from Medicaid.

Every $10 cancels $1K in medical debt.

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']:

Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.

Assuming all fanfiction is written poorly really just shows you've never been caught in the chokehold of a 150k slowburn that changed the course of your life at 2:40am written by someone whose username has 4 Zs in it and they only wrote one fic and then vanished like an ethereal legend.

Students protest movements are often dismissed as “entitled kids who don’t understand.” It’s a bad take. Just consider their historical track record of getting it right:
Abolition ✅
Civil Rights ✅
Vietnam ✅
Feminism ✅
Anti-Apartheid ✅
LGBTQ+ Rights ✅
Climate Change ✅

I read this piece from @bridgitaevans.bsky.social last year and it still sticks with me.

"We need to challenge our impulse to change 'the narrative' on a particular issue, and instead embrace the work of transforming whole narrative oceans."

Dear Editors — If you’re considering publishing an article about issues related to transgender people, then perhaps you should consider assigning that article to a transgender journalist. Don’t have any transgender journalists in your newsroom?

@transjournalists.org has several valuable resources:
Trans Journalists Association
Promoting more accurate, nuanced coverage of trans issues and communities in the media. Supporting gender-expansive journalists in their careers.

*I’ll post later for everyone*

The #blacksky shifts are as follows;

Morning: positive affirmations/ praise & worship

Afternoon: news and updates

Evening: comedic relief/ venting

Nights: spicy time/ Adult content

I trust everyone knows their roles & the responsibilities that come along with it

A good antidote to all of the bogus post-election analysis is my deep dive with political journalist @transscribe.bsky.social. We unpack why blaming trans people for the election result will get the Democratic Party no where and so much more.
