I have no patience for "that's what they get" replies. I don't care the fuck anybody voted for or didn't vote for. The people whose lives are being destroyed by Trump are not my enemies. Period.

I don't want anyone harmed. I want the harm to stop.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Can't stand that the animals on toddler boy clothes are all predator species. On the girls clothes the animals are mostly prey species (except cats) and usually have their eyes closed.

I asked the introducer of Nebraska’s anti-trans bathroom bill how she knows I was assigned female at birth. She conceded that she doesn’t know. The reality is, this bill would turn every public bathroom into a battleground where ppl are harassed and reported based on stereotypes.

New act of microfeminism: my kid said it must have been hard to get a baby out so I told him that when he was born I flexed on everyone in the delivery room and yelled "IRON PARADISE"

They seem to think that by going back to only white men having positions of power we can heal our divisions. But that’s just an admission that the core division at the heart of it all was white men resenting no longer exclusively having positions of power.

You know what happens when you take expired drugs, right?

The drug companies don't make any money.
don't throw away "expired" medications! almost all of them except aspirin are still fully viable for 28-40 years after being packaged, according to this study: www.tesble.com/10.1001/arch... also it probably feels powerful to take barbiturates or amphetamines from 1985. "time capsule"
