“But there are carve outs for health necessity” y’all a woman was just arrested at the No Kings march because she didn’t have a doctor’s note confirming her medical exemption and refused to take her mask off. Literally the mask bans turn into “show us your papers” evil.
New York City (and state) have both expressed interest in mask bans.

These discriminatory ugly laws put lives at risk.

They exclude disabled people from public spaces while increasing police harassment of marginalized individuals.

Everyone deserves the legal right to mask up!
Reminder: Zohran is one of the few NYC mayoral candidates who is outright opposed to a mask ban

The right love restricting freedoms after spending years screaming about their freedom to NOT wear a mask

Carve outs for health don’t work

We don’t carry papers around. Many disabilities are invisible

Some of us can’t convince doctors of how sick we are, what chance do we have with cops?

For years economists told us that the country would face a recession under President Biden. It never happened.

Just six weeks into Trump's term, however, we are now on the verge of economic turmoil.

cis folks, please read this hideous thing. if you didn’t believe it was all one fight before, they snuck in some “fetal personhood” here. we’re in this together.

and remember: if you know a trans person, *no, you don’t.*

*we* get to decide when/if we disclose. don’t put your trans friends at risk.

trans folks, i don’t have anything useful to add that someone smarter or more eloquent than me won’t say. it sucks. it’s degrading.

please take care of yourselves. we fought hard to become ourselves & i’d very much like all of us to survive in more than a “we’ve always been here” geological sense.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Using the NYPD’s billions to house students who are sleeping on the streets would do infinitely more for the real safety of our kids.

If you’re new to BlueSky: just block trolls and MAGA accounts. Don’t engage, just report and block. We all learned the hard way back on Twitter that there’s nothing to be gained by engaging, not even dunking. Just blockity block block. Starve them out.
