Sad days indeed - these guys are not right in the head, and this stuff is provably untrue that they are saying and doing - which is it, the deadliest vaccine ever or what? Trump got his covid booster, goobers. 🙄 RFK Jr didn't stop him from the deadliest vaccine ever with extra chips?

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

guards ignore—but are trained—that withdrawal is a life threatening condition, and ignoring someone in withdrawal is both deliberate and indifferent

the fact that they were *wrong* about this person’s emergency doesn’t make their conduct any less deliberate or indifferent
