I don't get to just declare myself an ally - that's something only members of the marginalized groups I support and defend can decide about me. And, if granted, that allyship can be revoked the moment I do, say, or advocate things that harm or erase them.

On Veterans Day, we honor those who put service before self.
To every veteran and their families: Thank you for your courage and sacrifice. Our nation is stronger and safer because of you.

All I see on Blue is..
"Tear down the Democratic Party."
No one is saying "Tear down the party that has ushered in Christofascism with their Project25 agenda, who has starved children domestic and abroad, who is kidnapping people, who has made life in the US unaffordable."
I guess the GOP is ok.

The English are profoundly and proudly transphobic.
For years, I’ve known that Maitlis was a key player in the institutional and orchestrated attacks on Trans+ youth
Now, emboldened and clearly unrepentant, she's flaunting her complicity
The world can now see her for who she is - someone willing to weaponise their power against the vulnerable

We need to raise $10k for everyone in my team to be able to pay their bills for the rest of the year. I’m going hat in hand.
I say pay bills, not be full time.

@starstryder.space How are Astronomy missions & research going to survive without U.S. funding, which seems to be getting gutted now? Or are ESA and other non-U.S. national entities able to make up for the loss of U.S. funding? Or perhaps the U.S. fraction isn't as big as I assume? Depressing time.

The absolute craziest part of the loudest people “angry” with the Democratic Party?
They are those same demographics, listening to the Exact Same people who had them vote suppressing the party for the last decade that landed them here.
It’s the definition of insanity believing in progressives. 😒

Bottom line: we wouldn't be in this position if the electorate, composed of vastly more of my fellow whites than anyone else, had simply chosen democracy a year ago.
Racism, white supremacy, and stupidity has led to our destruction, not the politics and shenanigans of the Democratic Party.

I can see now that a lot of “resistors” aren’t going to make it to the real fight at the end of year 4.
We aren’t even at the end of year one and you’re already crashing out.

Dust yourselves off.

I need everyone to take the time today to learn about incremental change and then consider how much incremental change was flushed down the toilet last November. It took DECADES TO GET WHERE WE WERE.
