The only reasonable thing Canada and Mexico can do is
RESIST

The attacks on our friends are clearly designed to weaken the US and it's alliances. The impacts on our economies will be devastating.

We're calling on the US Congress to impeach that madman and fast.

Just picked up this album yesterday from @laurajanegrace.bsky.social and Catbite. Proceeds are going to benefit victims of the LA fires, people and pets. Also, it's a great fucking live album!

@ripleylacross.bsky.social is nonbinary and loved to wear skirts and dresses because they didn't see them as gendered- but society sure does. To cut back on misgendering, they stopped wearing them... but at what cost?

Weathering the Storm by Ripley LaCross, January 21, 2025, for ohjoysextoy.com Ripley LaCross draws in a simplified-realistic cartoon-ish style, using a color palette of white, gray, black, and blue. The present-day scenes look digitally drawn, with crisp, smooth lines. The philosophical scenes have a much more watercolored look to them with softer, pencil-y lines. Page 1 From an overhead point of view, we see an office party taking place in a warehouse-turned-office building. Rain pelts down against the enormous windows that stretch up to the ceiling. Guests mill around tables of potluck food. It's an all-ages gathering, so parents try to talk with the other adults while simultaneously keeping track of their small children who are making friends with the office dogs. In the center of the hubbub stands Ripley who is talking with another person. Ripley's hair is bushy with the sides shaved down to stubble, making a relaxed mohawk or dapper mullet. They wear a black blazer over their collared blue shirt, with black pants and boots, with skinny glasses topping them off. They sport various facial and ear piercings along with a hint of mustache and beard against their white skin tone. Their conversation partner is shorter and plumper in a cute black mini cardigan over their blue patterned boxy dress that comes down to their knees. Underneath they sport black tights with their two-toned retro shoes. They wear slim glasses and theirs ears are full of many piercings that pop against their gray skin tone. They short black hair shares a cluster of big curls in front and then quickly fades into a buzz. "Some shingdig, eh?" Ripley asks their friend. "I'm loving your outfit, by the way."

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up
Soccer stadium, large fabric flag of Mae Borowski from Night In The Woods, holding an axe and wearing team colors. There is text in the Night In The Woods title font on the right and left. It reads "From Stonewall a brick and Portland an Axe, Respect our pride or expect our wrath." It's cool

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

given the arguments democrats just presented, if you have a republican congressperson calling them right now and saying, "my representative needs to vote no on the HR28 sports bill—because genital inspections for kids are sick" might be a really solid idea.
