Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

The logic that change comes using the politics of a particular government is inherently flawed. Lasting change *has to* come from drastically ending an order that no longer serves the People, & instituting a new one. Legislation improves or erodes conditions, but cannot fundamentally alter them.

Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.

Hand soaps are now being recalled because they can cause serious infection including sepsis and death.
In “healthy” individuals with minor cuts they will likely cause localized infection, but in immune compromised people it could be fatal.

3D printing. It’s great! So many applications.
But also nobody is sneering at you for not having or utilizing 3D printing. Nobody is trying to sneak a 3D printer into your garage without your consent

Hello Bsky! Help me crowd source a thing.
I am looking for an artist to do both a portrait (for use on social media), and a logo (for my newsletter and website). I’d love something whimsical and witchy, with big Pre-Raphaelite vibes (think Rossetti or Waterhouse).
Throw me names! (No AI please)

Well, on the bright side two of the three work meetings I had today were canceled. On the… less than bright side I’m now playing the waiting game re: an unofficial meeting with my boss (and thus no scheduled time), which is making it hard for my brain to focus on anything else… 🧠

Remembering this trans man for Pride. Mexican Revolutionary Amelio Robles Ávila, who threatened to shoot anyone who misgendered him and said "he did not want to die without being known as a man,” lived his life as a man after transitioning. One of Zapata’s top commanders.

Mask 😷 the working class because we have no national health care, c19 never went away, and they won't tell us what's coming next.
Unmask 👀 the Proud Boys bc we need to know who they are so we can ostracize them like you're supposed to with Nzi fucks.

Hey folks,
I have a huge request for Pride:
Trevor Project is recruiting for a landmark new study. If you are LGBTQ, in the United States, and between 13-24 or know someone who is, pass this along to them.
Trevor’s research has led to meaningful defenses of queer and trans lives.
Take the survey

My god. This sounds f*cking amazing. Happy Pride month indeed 🏳️🌈
Happy Pride month!
I'm so glad Lessons in Magic and Disaster is the GAYEST book I've ever written. It's about a trans witch who teaches her lesbian mom to do magic. It's about the struggle for queer liberation from the 1990s to today. It's about an 18th century transmasc icon and Georgian lesbians.

It is a de facto international war crime to block aid. Netanyahu is committing war crimes. And the US Govt just sent him another $12B in arms. This violates our own Leahy Laws as well as international human rights law. This is fascism.
Today is day 12 of a total blockade on Gaza. No electricity, no food, no medicine, no water. This is US-backed mass slaughter.

Major entertainment corporations don't want to make challenging material, they want to make the cheapest, blandest product imaginable in hopes that they can maximize profits by appealing to everyone.
But when you try too hard to please everyone you end up pleasing no one.
