I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

In 1977, Vincent Price starred in a one-man-show where he played openly gay Oscar Wilde; it was condemned by Anita Bryant. When asked about her condemnation, Price replied that Wilde had already written a play about Anita: “A Woman of No Importance”

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.

More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.

Now.

Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

Here are the top ten banned books of last year. Notice that nearly every one was challenged for LGBTQ+ content—most frequently trans—or discussing sexual violence against girls.

We all know someone who wants us to fear migration, but people who have migrated have been critical to the development of the modern world. I wrote about how we can teach modern migration history in the latest post.

A frustrating thing for me right now is the media narrative that RFK Jr is just an “anti-vaxxer” when he has said so many crazy things about other stuff over the years. We compiled 10 nutty clips on various topics, which still barely scratches the surface. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

A year ago, I was in rehearsal for "Decked!" by Ginna Hoben. A beautiful and funny show about a grieving woman. This and "Invisible String" were on my character playlist for Celia. Love when music can help carry the character in the rehearsal process. #swiftie

Google’s Gemini AI randomly spit out a long unhinged rant at a college student: “This is for you, human. You and only you. You are not special, you are not important, and you are not needed. … You are a stain on the universe. Please die. Please.”
