You know the fact that they're spending so much time, effort, and money into catching the guy who killed the United CEO really goes to show you the outsized value the police put on the lives of the wealthy and powerful.

Does anybody have any books recs for ppl/parents in your life trying to wrap their heads around transgender stuff for the first time?

Going back through some old quotes from my sister and "I just want to go down to the underworld and never coming back up except on Saturdays to play D&D" really slaps.

This whole thread. One of the drums I consistently bang on is the idea that the majority of “civility” requirements is code for “the way we hurt you is polite and therefore allowed and you may not complain; the way you hurt us is rude and boorish and therefore you do not matter.”

I don't mind Biden using this last part of his presidency to pardon his son. I do mind, however, him doing that and not using the opportunity to pardon others who almost certainly deserve it more.

When I hear people talk about deregulation, what I'm really hearing them say is: "any limitation on harming people is a limitation on profits".

Ahh, why can't I have more followers so I can validate my existence with likes? 😫

I bought a women's multivitamin for the first time and I opened it and immediately went "awww" cuz the gummies were in heart shapes.

Well I took a social media break for a few days and now I'm back. Hopefully this time around I don't get eaten by existential dread and trapped in notification addiction, but, hey, what's life good for if you can't fuck around a little 🤷

Interested in a Sci-fi story about capitalism, finding meaning, and figuring out who you are, written by a disabled, trans writer with queer characters whose queerness doesn’t define everything about them?

I'm finding it increasingly difficult to distract myself from the hell coming our way in January. Or to find a way to say it'll be alright, because honestly I'm really not sure it'll be alright.

Any tips on curating the blue sky feed? I've become attached to threads because my algorithms gotten pretty good, but I'm worried about the future of the platform with meta running the ship

Why does it feel like the more practical I'm being in my life the less inspired I feel as a writer 😫

The time's approaching when i'll finally be able to publicly be myself, and quite frankly I'm terrified. I've been hiding this for so long now, the idea of not hiding feels almost unimaginable 🫣

Am I in the good place yet?
