The superintendent they just kidnapped is a former Olympic athlete who runs footraces with the kids from his schools while wearing a maroon suit and a bowtie. This is quite simply about the people in power feeling threatened by Black excellence.
This is the man that ICE just detained. This isn't about catching criminals, it is about Ethnic cleansing www.iowapublicradio.org/news-from-np...

Most cats don’t even like going near open water but a cat named Unsinkable Sam survived three warships sinking in WWII, one on the German side and two on the English side.

No amount of better messaging, being nicer on social media, or having modest political goals was ever going to work to stop this backlash because the world's richest and most powerful people have all decided they don't want us to exist.

Political violence also includes stripping trans people of their rights, killing innocent people in Palestine, rounding up and deporting people with no due process, systemicized racism. So if there’s no room for political violence you better be talking about ALL political violence.

Whether or not you support political violence won’t change where we’ve come to, nor where we’ve been for some time in this country. I am quite taken aback by how many people only invoke the term ‘political violence’ when it happens to a person with power. It’s political violence the other way too.

Pro tip! If you mask on an Amtrak train with no assigned seating, no one will sit next to you bc they’ll think you’re sick. Instead they’ll sit across the aisle next to the poor girl who is literally hacking up a lung and looks like she has a fever 😷

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people.
These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.

I will never vote for Gavin Newsom. He's throwing the trans community under the bus.
Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader?
I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.

Do book pirates realise that when they post a book to a pirating site, Kindle Unlimited books often get pulled as their system views that as a breach of exclusivity? Then the authors are banned? So not only did you not pay the author, you facilitated the loss of their livelihood.

The military and federal law enforcement are occupying our nations capital in a brazen display of petty authoritarianism and no one is doing anything about it. There are no protests, there are no politicians or institutions speaking up.
We're cooked. There's nothing stopping this fascism.

Can’t stop thinking about You Weren’t Meant to Be Human. It was a 5-star read for me and I will be recommending it like crazy BUT it’s not for everyone. As someone who would probably have a meltdown if life was growing inside of me, it RESONATED. Just check those content warnings! #booksky

The media is completely ignoring that Brown University just agreed to a full bathroom ban and defining trans people out of existence. Even worse, when they mention it, they're describing it as a sports ban. This is not just a sports ban.

Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard.
These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

Digital distribution platforms Steam and itch.io have tightened their rules about adult content – under pressure from payment processors. Why has this happened and where will it lead?

It was never going to stop at trans people. They want to control everyone's Healthcare and dictate what you can take and when.
Mental health conditions, like suicides & overdoses, are the leading underlying causes of maternal deaths in the US.
Antidepressants save women's lives—& they're safe.
So why is RFKJr's FDA hell-bent on undermining their use among pregnant & postpartum moms?

Is the FDA about to keep pregnant women from taking antidepressants?
A panel of experts repeated what one women's health expert called "MAHA talking points."
