Some of us are willing to sound like a crank if it will save the goddamned country
The number-one problem in major media over the last decade has been journalists deciding not to do their jobs rather than risk sounding like a crank in front of their colleagues
We needed loud voices _ten years ago_

honestly think some of the hesitation here is that no one wants to sound like a crank. i was talking at an event last night and even i felt like a crank while i was speaking!
What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

Billionaires work very hard to keep the peasants distracted and divided so they never notice how badly they’re being SCREWED and unite against the billionaires.

For those of you that are afraid to put up a tree because you live with a cat, I just tested an idea that works for my tiny apartment: A stepladder, 3 pieces of 9' garland, and a ton of decorations. It's wedged between my bookcase and my computer so it can't fall, and he can hide underneath, too.

Cis writers: if you’re writing about trans people, you can just use their current, correct pronouns, even when discussing their life pre-transition. Unless the person asks you to do otherwise, you can just gender them correctly in all time periods. No one will be confused. I promise.

A beautiful, amazing woman bought my groceries for me tonight because she had a bad week and wanted to do something that made her feel good.
So when in doubt, remember that there are some truly good people in this world, and they may be standing right next to you at some point.
