This is all… terrifying. But it’s not predetermined. Dig in. Reach out. Hold fast to all you can gather to your heart and remember our greatest asset is each other.

For those unaware, in 1933, the first major Nazi book burning was of the first 30 years of research into trans and queer people, far before the concentration camps.

Medicaid didn't go offline because it was too "woke."

School lunch programs weren't put at risk because of immigrants.

Funding for cancer research wasn't on the chopping block because of trans people.

All of this (and more) was jeopardized because of one person: Donald Trump.

Art might sound trivial, but right now, the people have the most control over artistic expression than any other time in history. There's a reason why fascists censor art. Art is powerful, vulnerable, it forces a new perspective onto others. Make art, make it loudly. Good, bad, doesn't matter.

Bryan MacCormack, the executive director of a New York-based immigrant rights group, was pulled over by CBP with two undocumented passengers in the vehicle. He knew his rights, refused to acknowledge their "warrant", and despite CBP threatening him, the agents eventually were forced to let him go.

To my trans and non-binary friends, I see you and you are loved. Nothing Trump says or does will ever change that you are here and that you deserve the right to live your truth.

Yesterday I (the DM) called my party’s bard (who is also my wife) a honey-tongued motherf*cker.

She deserved it, too.

The things you like to laugh and joke about are very revealing of your sense of humour, which is even more revealing of your true values. It’s never funny when you’re punching down.

If you aren’t hearing people’s pain right now, it’s a very good indicator of who you’re not friends with. That’s a pretty good indicator to me that you’re not my friend, either.
