This is why I push my teens to write fanfic! They just need to write, and this is what they /want/ to write.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

It does feel like I only post on here when it's a timeline. But it's important to share the changes, not just physically but everything else too. It's hard to even say I'm the same person from before I felt comfortable enough to come out, but I get to be me because of the people who went before me.

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.

You're acting like these aren't perfectly respectable choices or something, all I see is a group of plucky, doomed adventurers.

"Democrats want transgender operations for everybody" is something the president says frequently and that no mainstream media source (to my knowledge) really highlights or presses him on even though it's batshit.

Trump cancels his meeting with Democrats ahead of a potential government shutdown.
A post from Donald Trump saying "After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open, I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive. They are threatening to shut down the Government of the United States unless they can have over $1 Trillion Dollars in new spending to continue free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!), force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors, have dead people on the Medicaid roles, allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits, try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World, allow men to play in women’s sports, and essentially create Transgender operations for everybody. These Radical Left Views and Policies is what allowed me to win the Presidential Election, including all seven Swing States, and the Popular Vote, IN A HISTORIC LANDSLIDE. There are consequences to losing Elections but, based on their letter to me, the Democrats haven’t figured that out yet. They are trying to eliminate the popular $50 Billion Dollar "

It's not *me* who made my very existence in the world a matter of political controversy. They're the ones who don't want me to exist or to suffocate in the closet. No matter how empathetic I try to be, I can't put myself in the shoes of someone who is so needlessly cruel to harmless people. Why?

in fairness, I also know more cats named Juniper than people. So the odds of cat or trans are good.

both! there will always be a need for the physical materials, bc there are inherent barriers to access for digital, but at the same time libraries have shifted to resource centers. at the same time, we need to be providing resources to do that instead of assuming librarians can just take that on.

It’s actually super annoying that my purpose in life is to be joyful, raise kids in a gay ass household, and do live art but now I’m forced to care about geopolitics because of like 5 fucking white men in a group chat. I should not have to care about men who don’t wear heels.

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.

Passports didn't have a gender marker before 1978 when the UN made them mandatory because of "the rise of unisex fashion and hairstyles." Removing them would require a change in rules from the UN's International Civic Aviation Organization.

Maybe they should just remove gender from passports altogether. 🤔
