This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

I'm a trans person w/ a trans kid & we lose trans siblings every year to hateful violence. On Trans Day of Remembrance we're called not only to collectively mourn those we've lost, but to renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who are still here.

Maannn, I don’t like when people screenshot young people learning a thing for the first time. That’s a thing they get to be a little embarrassed about one time and then someone corrects them. That’s a normal thing.

PikaProgress Update: 95% complete.

Under 2000 stitches to go. I can see a few spots on Pikachu that I want to fix, but I’ve promised myself I’d finish this thing before I went back to fix things I hate. I’m so close!

Putting out the same batsignal on all my platforms: Are you an artist/graphic designer? Do you know some whose work you’d recommend? Ideally queer or trans? Do said artists want to potentially talk about designing a book cover? Message me! 🙏

So, just to be clear, in addition to sending queer people out into the cold to starve or freeze to death, the SA also:

- provides food services for ICE
- provides correctional services to the carceral system
- union busts

They’re almost comedically evil.
The apartment building my Grandparents were living in burned down when my mother was a baby. The Salvation Army assisted the other tenants with emergency housing. They wouldn't help my Mom's family because they were Jewish.
I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

Kids today may not know that insurance companies used to be able to deny care simply over a family history of illnesses like cancer or bc of issues that were fixed at birth and never a problem since
My personal worst story is the Reno VA refusing to test me for COVID in 2022 despite having 14/10 symptoms bc I'd been vaccinated, but that shit happens ALL the time under plans that people pay money for & for more immediately urgent shit

"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.
