Two days ago I posted about how many folks said disabled people who can’t cook for themselves should be institutionalized.

Today Trump signs an executive order permitting the arrest and institutionalization of homeless people & those with mental disabilities.

Eugenics.

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK.

America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor.

He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down.

The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him.

This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

Oh yeah, horror has never had a message. Frankenstein, Night of the Living Dead, Rosemary's Baby, no politics just scares

Or are they just naturally apolitical when white people make them?

MUST WATCH: They didn’t just burn Tulsa — they burned proof.

Black wealth. Black futures. Gone.
And now they’re banning books so you never learn it happened.

📚 ERASED tells the truth they’re scared of.

Read it before they erase that too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Can we have healthcare?

“That sounds expensive, I’m going to spend a quarter billion dollars to reopen a prison that was considered unsustainable 62 years ago when it closed.”
US President Donald Trump says he has directed officials to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz prison, the notorious federal jail based on a small island in California that closed six decades ago ➡️ u.afp.com/Sq45

Major good news for my transmasculine readers.

The Washington State Democrats have informed me that the bill will cover 6-month supply stockpiles of testosterone as well.

They were unable to get 12-month supply stockpiles due to its controlled status, but it WAS upgraded from 3 to 6 months.
1. A major bill protecting trans people just passed in Washington.

It makes insurers cover 12-month supplies of HRT which can be obtained at pharmacies, allowing trans people to stockpile medication to outlast supply disruptions.

The Department of Homeland Security denied Mahmoud Khalil permission to attend the birth of his first child, who was delivered at a New York hospital on Monday, according to emails reviewed by The New York Times.
