We can’t just spend the next four years in a safe space.
I’m going to spend the next four years getting outraged.
Every single day, let’s find a brand new way
To let the motherfuckers know that we can’t be swept away.
I’m going to spend the next four years on the barricades.

Some in Congress can’t muster maturity when they have a transgender colleague. But members of the U.S. Armed Forces can—and have.

My NDAA amendments repeal Trump’s cruel trans military ban & restore retirement benefits to trans veterans forced out of service.

life is about love,
last minutes and lost evenings,

About fire in our bellies and furtive little feelings,

And the aching amplitudes that set our needles all a-flickering,

And help us with remembering that the only thing that's left to do is liiiiiiiiiiiive

Shit like this makes me feel terrible!

This poor sweet girl deserves better.

Our world is a better place because of dogs.

I hope she finds the home she rightfully deserves.
Artemis- poor baby- stray- was kicked, had things thrown at her, abused on the streets of NYC- she’s terrified- trembles, cries in her kennel. @nycacc.bsky.social kills them for that! Can some1 on the East coast foster her? Transport/food/vet provided! This breaks my heart! Repost!

There is truth to this
Adulthood is mostly peeing preemptively to avoid future inconvenience.

Charlie KIrk believed that empathy was a "new concept" that shouldn't exist, so anyone who expresses condolences for him is being VERY disrespectful to his beliefs right now. please keep him out of your thoughts as he begins his transition into worm food. thank you

"Charlie Kirk spread infinite amounts of disinformation about LGBTQ people. Lies & vitriol about transgender people were a frequent part of his rhetoric & events. We need leaders & all those w platforms to prioritize safety over disinformation, irresponsible politics, & profit.” -GLAAD spokesperson

Nobody deserves a ten year compensation package if $1T. Yes T as in Trillion. That is absolutely sickening.

Not while every single nation in the world has starving children.

Two shows down and 5 left to go this year. Nine Inch Nails and Oasis were absolutely amazing!

Next is Ethel Cain on the 12th and then four @frankturner.bsky.social shows at the end of the month!

Can’t wait!!!

If you're really interested in lowering crime in DC, start with the place it's running rampant:

The White House.

Holy crap! Just saw #Weapons #WeaponsMovie.

What a fucking ride that was!!! I swear. Everything #JuliaGarner does is amazing. This movie does not disappoint!

Horror movies in recent years have been terrible. This one though, it is up there with one of the best I have seen.

NEWS: Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell, just revealed on CNN that she wrote a letter with her concerns to Deputy AG Blanche — and received no response.

She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.
