I cannot emphasize enough how we are in an era where everyone is to be treated like disabled people have always been treated.

They are now actively removing portraits and erasing mentions of women - including white women - throughout the entire federal government while a convicted sexual abuser occupies the White House with the support of tens of millions of people. But that Barbie movie sure was something!!

Ah, my sibling singing a beautiful rendition of Liquid Smooth through the wall on their birthday. Today, they had a really hard bday and I love that they know how to pick themselves up with the help of belting out Mitski in the night.

Tuberculosis killed 1/4th of Europe not too long ago. We are now in the largest TB outbreak in U.S. history. A man who doesnt believe in vaccines is now the head of our country’s public health.

This is a hell of a crowd size for a protest at the Treasury Department.
People do not like Elon.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

If you’re an individual among the most highly affected by this administration - yes, self-care and rest are forms of activism.
If you’re not in that group, PLEASE take some of the labor on for the people who should be resting but know that we can’t rest.

The only problem with the book I just read was that there wasn’t a thorough exploration of the world. The author jumped right in, but I wanted more. So. Much. More.

In my years of reporting on LGBTQ news this was by far the hardest.
But we are still here. You made it to Friday. You lived. Good job. That wasn’t easy.
Through a diversity of tactics, we will continue to live.
Rest up, drink water, find community, so that we can all be here tomorrow too.

Essentially it’s fruit of the same tree. They’re still using ableism and applying it to trans people. Anyone who defies “normalcy” is considered disabled by their society whether they have a disability or not.
hi Imani! do you have an explanation for why trans people have become *the* scapegoat for this administration rather than e.g. disabled people? (since eugenics/fascism rise during a pandemic, I thought more backlash would be against disabled people/those who the RW think "make the nation weak")

I spent this morning in the ER with severe pain in my abdomen. Turns out that I have cysts! 🫠 this on top of all the worldly turmoil from today is so much, but hey, I’m still doing research on how to find ways to protest and reach my reps.
