This isn’t my typical brand in the slightest but I have to share some of these pictures from the Santa Clara stop of the Eras Tour because it was incredible and because the seats we had will never be beaten. I do not know how we won the face value lottery on these seats.

This list doesn't even include our siblings who have gone missing, while our 'Justice System' does nothing about it.
I hope they are found and/or laid to rest in a dignified manner.
Not that most have been show enough dignity throughout their lives.

This is a case where a small donation makes a huge difference. A hundred bucks can buy food for days for many many people. If you care about LGBTQ rights in the US, you should care about them everywhere.

Had a weird fucking experience today on the 1 train…some old lady with a walker got on the train, I offered her my seat and then when I got out of the way for her to sit down she launched into a fiery condemnation of being gay and trans and how god was gonna punish us for sinning to the whole train.

Show up to school board meetings, and bring a bunch of friends who aren’t shy about speaking out against fascism. The playbook is clear - this shit only works if we allow it to work.

Wow I jumped on bsky for the first time in a few days at an interesting time. This shit is babytown frolics easy: apologize, make some basic changes to block words from usernames and, like, start working on hiring some trust/safety people.

As others have noted, this article may be studio propaganda to dishearten WGA folks, but a) it's just gonna piss them off more, b) it prompted me to donate to the Entertainment Community Fund. Fuck the studios, I'm paying for a WGA member's groceries today, gotta keep strength up on the picket line

Last night I learned that you can microwave corn in the cob (throw it in, husk and all, nuke for 4 minutes, grab it with a dishtowel, hack off the end, shuck [a five-second effort], butter and season to taste, eat), and I'm still agog with a sense of revelation.

I mean, surprising nobody, the guys who play consistently at this level look quite strong compared to the two way guys, who look quite strong compared to the folks looking for their big breaks. Some notable exceptions though.
