So once again, Paramount not understanding the very franchise it Shepards. And I fear this will lead to less queer, which has already dwindled, representation in #StarTrek. More white leads, which has been happening. And a Trek more chaise than SNW and the Berman era.

Like many born into slavery, abolitionist Frederick Douglass never knew his birthday.

His mother called him “little valentine” and so he chose to celebrate on Valentine’s Day.

Happy birthday, Frederick Douglass 💜

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration to block its executive order attempting to restrict access to gender-affirming care for transgender people under the age of 19 nationwide.

The reason pro-Palestine voices may not be "keeping the same energy" for Trump (whatever that means) is that we're not the GOP base. They don't care what we say.

It makes Biden's failures worse: The shameful support for genocide & the political malpractice of ignoring his base.

Great post by @trekkiebill.bsky.social

As someone growing up in Ireland in the 90s, Star Trek showed me the diversity that I didn't see in my everyday life.

A world where everyone was equal is normal in #StarTrek - it felt right to me too.

Thank you to Trek for opening my eyes to a wider world

Most immigrants Trump targets have been here 10+ years, paying taxes, raising families, contributing to our communities.

Mass deportation would devastate our economy and tear apart the social fabric of America.

What a disgrace to Nichelle Nichols legacy of diversifying the space program.

“These programs divided people by race.” What grotesque boilerplate language. White supremacy disguised as equality.
Hoping it wasn’t real, or somehow modified to be worse. But nope.

Today, President Trump rescinded Executive Order 14087 signed by former President Biden in October 2022.

What did Executive Order 14087 do?

It lowered drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid—working class Americans.

This only benefits big pharma.

Who gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund?

-Each of the 5 biggest tech firms
-The CEOs of Uber & OpenAI
-Auto giants Toyota, Ford, & GM
-Drugmaker behemoth Pfizer

Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.

There's nothing they won’t do for a tax break.

3 things about this message that greeted millions of Americans on TikTok today:

1) the shamelessness of Trump who just U-turned on his opposition to TikTok.
2) the shamelessness of these tech companies, sucking up to Trump.
3) the fecklessness of Biden who gave Trump this win.

My thoughts are with the Palestinians as they begin to return home in Gaza.

More than 46k people have been killed, including lives taken today, while so many voices deflected with 'But Hamas started it!'

May the hostages come home safely and may we never forget this was an attempted genocide.
