UU President Rev. Dr. Sofía Betancourt joins faith leaders across traditions in proclaiming: transgender, intersex, and nonbinary people are holy, whole, and worthy of love. Together, we call out the misuse of religion to justify harm.

Per Kate Conger: "If you #Google "inauguration day," you're greeted with an animation of fireworks forming an American Flag. Google has never done something like this for the inauguration, sources told me, our of fear of appearing partisan. But that's changed now, with Sergey & Sundar attending."

Re: Trump's threats to criminally prosecute critics and networks that criticize him: on March 31, 1933, after taking power, the Nazi Government passed the Malicious Practices Act, making it a crime to speak out against the government, the party or its leaders, designating them "enemies of the state"

So many of the themes in my most recent novel, THE GLASS BOX, have been showing up lately: the power elite working to discredit and discourage the protest movement, over-reacting with charges, declaring protestors de facto mentally ill, and the importance of resistance by even one person.

Yeeeeeaaah, the doomerism thing is real bullshit. As a nation we were collectively stupid enough to let him get back into a seat of power, but it's now our responsibility to collectively put as many goddamn tacks onto that seat as we possibly can. Make Power Fucking Painful is the mantra for 2025.
a lot of you seem to basically believe that politics is over, history has ended and the absence of legal or electoral consequences for trump means that he is the only person with agency. you all are recapitulating the basic conceit of trump’s alleged invincibility, but from the center left

I've just learned that cranberries are not actual berries and GODDAMNIT why are berries so full of lies and deceit, how hard is it to have fruit standards

Fuck it, I'm making the call here

Nothing is a berry anymore

Everything is a fucking legume now

Cranberries are Bog Peanuts

Deal with it
