Mamdani standing up for transgender people living in America is a huge part of why he is dominating the mayor's race in New York City.

Giving a shit about trans people, immigrants, and the unhoused is a winning strategy. I hope that reminds you of what Trump wants you to forget:

People are good.

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.

I am very glad Discord gaming wasn't a thing when I was a teenager or in my 20s. Because the groups I had the bad luck of playing with...it would've been this. Or the one from the previous comic.

An appropriate song choice too considering it's precisely eight lines long with zero subtlety yet people STILL seem to miss the meaning of

Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

Those who died
Are justified
For wearing the badge
They're your chosen white

Philip Purser-Hallard @purserhallard.com · 1d

It occurs to me that the Doctor's polyethnic identity in recent times recontextualises Peter Davison's casting in quite an interesting way.
(For context, although you'd be unlikely to guess it by looking at him, Davison's paternal family is Guyanese. He has close relatives who are visibly Black.)

Peter Davison, a fair-skinned blond man, as the fifth Doctor, circa 1982.

Coal thinks the noise from me brushing my teeth is UNDIGNIFIED. 😾

practically heard him clearing his throat behind me to let me know he was there and monitoring my activities.

Coal, a black cat, stands on his back feet on a light wood floor. he has his front paws, with claws out, on a white doorframe, and is looking around the doorframe at his mom in the bathroom with a slight look of reproach.

people are going to post AI slop...sometimes they just do not realize it at the time and have the good graces to delete it

but if they are told and keep posting it your safest action is just to block them because they will continue to spread it

One (1) good thing about AI is that it’s clearly delineating journalists and people who pretend to be journalists.

Lot of “journalists” sharing things that are clearly AI cos they don’t take a minute to look to verify what they’re seeing/hearing - they’re in it for numbers, not truth.

This is not my best shot of Kitsune, but you can see his tail here and why we went with that name. 🙂

Light orange tabby is sitting up straight in his shelter kennel, on a grey towel. His face is a little goofy and looking down, I'm both petting him on his shoulder and trying to gently hold him still with one gloved hand. His tail is resting on the ground, it is long and floofy and a little bit lighter at its tip.

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Its almost like anti-porn laws are never actually about porn. 🤔

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · 1d

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

A good time to remind people that Clinton was gearing up to run in 2020, and the only thing that stopped her was people were so uninterested in seeing her on her tour with Bill that one of the Clintonland people got her to realize she'd lose and it'd be humiliating:
