It is possible to be outraged about many things at once.
It is not possible to be *performatively* outraged about every individual issue at once.
Someone not screaming about the thing you're angry about doesn't (necessarily) mean they don't care. /thread

Protect trans kids. Support trans teens. Show up for and with trans adults. Treasure trans elders.
And just in general, don't make a big friggin' deal out of anyone else's gender identity.
This has been: TDOV with a cranky cis librarian who is going back to bed. Peace, y'all.

Week and a half ago: "sign up for our emergency management system, we're testing it for a flood evacuation drill." Message never goes out.
This evening's message: "LOOKING FOR CSI FOR HOMICIDE" followed by "internal communication, please disregard."
Go home, emergency message people, you're drunk.

Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

Yes on 50, of course; fight unfair policies with unfair policies. But if Johnson is refusing to swear in Grijalva, what's to say he'll swear in any of the newly elected representatives either?
