Why commend such folks? Because they have a lot of social capital, and we need them to be outspoken about trans rights, if we have any chance.
Otherwise, the list of straight cis male celebrities getting an A rating is officially*:
- Dwyane Wade
- Pedro Pascal
- Don Cheadle
- Nick Offerman
- Michael Imperioli
- David Arquette
- Will Ferrell

*accordingly to me, a random trans man. If others want to nominate more or correct me, feel free.

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

Stop letting unfunny men tell you there’s something wrong with you for not getting their “jokes”. Stop fake laughing. Let their reality reflect the truth of how fundamentally they misunderstand humor. Neuter their ability to use “it was a joke” for emotional cover. Make them see nobody laugh.

Quokkas are THE best. As y’all know, Australia is none of my business but if I ever visited, seeing a quokka IRL would be a top priority. I’d also like to meet a wombat.
Do you know about my friend the quokka -

Dr. King spread a message of justice and persisted in the face of hatred.
 
His legacy calls us to serve each other and to continue striving towards a more inclusive and united Minnesota.

I may be cool, but I am not the kind of cool that knows any of the top 10 albums on @vulture.com or @pitchfork.com. I’ll keep trying.

Read every word. And share with the men you love. We need them to start / keep speaking up.

I watched Saltburn last night and … really liked it?! But I also watched The Substance two weeks ago, so maybe my disgust threshold has increased. Yay? Love, a Midwest Maximalist

Fun at 45 yo is … puzzling. I never puzzled as a kid, but this gets me in flow and gives us a good use for our dining room table. #TVDinner
