While the media chums it up with Greene, reminder that she has a bill going before the House today to make it a *federal crime* to provide or advocate for healthcare for trans youth.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "What I'd like to see from the president is empathy for Americans. Donald Trump is a billionaire and he's the president. When he looks into a camera and says 'affordability is a hoax,' he's talking to Americans that are suffering and have been for many years now."

AP News: "Gaza families struggle to recover from days of torrential rains that killed 12 people."

The situation on the ground for Gazans is dire. They rely on donations to survive.

Please give to my friend Tasneem so she can take care of her family. And to others. 🙏💕

Rain keeps falling, and with it our fear grows. Odai is still suffering—cold, pain, and no medicine left. The storm makes everything harder, but your kindness can change this moment. Please don’t leave Odai alone. Even a small donation brings warmth, relief, and hope

Please help me, I’m truly struggling to get food.

I urgently need 10 generous people to donate $20 each so we can reach our daily goal and make it through today.

Your support means everything to us — you are our only hope 🥹💔🙏

My five children are freezing and homeless. Please show them your humanity and compassion before it's too late. Don't abandon them; consider them your own children. They only need $100 to buy a tent.
Protect them🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

The legendary Bob Burns passed away yesterday. The original Monster Kid, Bob was one of the greatest, kindest guys you could hope to meet. He also had a stunning collection of movie props, and many years ago I made a video touring his famous basement.

This isn’t even all of the AIDS quilt. It was so long they didn’t have room to display it all. Reagan flat out fucking murdered queer people

Greg Bovino is back in Chicago, and ICE has been spotted in the Evanston area.

The best way to keep our loved ones safe is to alert the community whenever possible. Whistles are one of the most accessible tools to warn neighbors and disrupt ICE incursions.

Come pick up a whistle, if you need one!

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

It was a beautiful tent that sheltered them, but it's now just a memory because it was lost due to storms and rain.Is it conceivable that you would begrudge them $150 to buy a tent that could save their lives from freezing to death?😭😭

"It's just concept art, who cares if they use genAI and not actual artists?"

Look at this concept art for C-3P0 by Ralph McQuarrie.

It's the very thing that inspired Anthony Daniels to go for the role of Threepio and perform him as such.

It is the first heartbeat of the art that now exists.

My dear friend Tasneem and her family in Gaza have lost everything; their home, their livelihood, their security. This is the case for thousands of Gazans. I support Tasneem, there are many more in need.

Please give to Tasneem so she can afford shelter. And to others. ❤️

Hey romancelandia and fandom peeps! If you live in the U.S. right now you should know that KOSA (along with a slew of censorship bills) are advancing through congress right now. If you care about spicy books and/or fanfiction you should contact your reps right now and tell them to vote NO on KOSA!

Travel bans don’t make us safer.
They make us smaller, crueler, and less free.

I'm very tired of repeating myself about this, but, as someone who works professionally on housing affordability, this is a disgusting lie.
Vance: "Why have rents gone down for 4 consecutive months? Because we're starting to get those illegal aliens out of the USA. Those criminals, those gang members, those people that are taking homes that ought by right go the people in this room. It's simple economics."

I know many things are awful but here is one genuinely useful and helpful thing you can do. No matter their party, your representative needs to hear that trans people and our families are not alone and this bill is an unjustifiable and extreme threat to criminalize the health care we need to live.
Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison.

Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.
Protect Trans Care Now
As wave after wave of extreme measures to criminalize and strip trans people of rights and safety continue, tell Congress to act.
