Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever
BTW:

When you make purchases on Itch, the files are yours to keep forever. You aren't "licensing" it; Amazon can't delete it from your library.

YOU are part of preserving transfeminine literature, YOU are part of the movement preventing digital book burnings. YOU are fighting censorship & erasure
For absolutely no reason at all, here are some awesome transfeminine lit books you can get DRM-free on Itch. Many of these books were nominations for the Transfeminine Review Awards or were written by authors who had other books nominated!

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital.

You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library.

You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library.

You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library.

You want sourced info? Library.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

The Art of War is so funny when you realise it's basically a very frustrated Sun Tzu writing The Absolute Dipshit Entitled Brat Silver Spoon Nepo Baby's Guide to Not Immediately Fucking Up A War, which also explains why CEO's like it so much

When bsky finally opens up next year, PLEASE keep blocking the right-wing weirdos instead of interacting with them.

Do not interact with them, do not give them a stool to preach from. They are counting on this reaction.

Deprive them of what they want most - attention.

I think the fact that we did fix these things and it didn't make it into collective memory is a big part of the apathy toward climate change now. A lot of us remember being warned about all this stuff as kids only for it to go away without much discussion - *because we fixed it*.
we fixed acid rain! we fixed the ozone layer! we beat polio! we’ve rescued scores of species from the brink of extinction! the despair many of us feel about climate change isn’t that it’s too big to fix. it’s that we know it is fixable but we’re being thwarted by greedy ghouls at every turn.
The other day I was like “you know something we heard a lot about as kids was acid rain, why don’t we hear about it anymore”

TURNS OUT we fixed it???

Annual reminder that Thanksgiving has nothing to do with pilgrims and natives; it was instituted by President Lincoln in 1864 to celebrate Union victories, so if you really want to observe it properly you should burn a Confederate flag.

Seriously, vote those stupid little positions nobody really cares about because that’s how the GOP gets in. They go for school boards, town councils, county clerks, etc. Then they work up.
Election day is today USA

If you haven't yet voted, this is your last chance this year.

Voting is the first means as a citizen to have your voice heard and it's especially important for your local and state-wide elections. I encourage everyone to get involved and do their part.

Scott Cawthon is a pro-life, right wing christian that used his profits to support people like Trump and Mitch McConnell and wouldn't apologize and saw no wrong in doing so. Please be a proper pirate and don't give him any more money.
Just a reminder that Scott is still involved with FNAF and the movie and he's a shit human.
