Don't give your government issued Id to YouTube.

can't emphasize this enough! don't let peer pressure or anything else stop you from starting to mask as soon as you can! Covid is still a tremendous health emergency so if you want an easy way to protect yourself and your community/disabled comrades from preventable disabling, find a local mask bloc
It’s not too late to start masking.

You don’t have to do it alone. You won’t be the lone masker.

There’s an engaged Covid cautious and disability community who will help you.

There’s local mask blocs who provide respirators to those who can’t afford them.

Covid is still here, and masks work!

The hidden path of a buried creek becomes visible in the snow at Wyman Park Dell. Sumwalt Run’s waters flowing through an underground culvert warm the surrounding ground just enough to melt the snow above it.

A memo from the acting head of the Department of Health and Human Services said that the communications pause will end on Feb 1.

It's Feb 3, and no further updates. This isn't a communication "pause," it's outright censorship.

You don't have to like each other to do community with someone. It helps, but it's not a requirement.

Pouring one out for TikTok. There are a lot of people, including queer and trans people, whose lives will be wrecked by the decision to ban it. It will also significantly reduce the ability of young queer people to see positive representations of themselves.

It’s a sad day for many.

Personally, the best way to gauge someone's political alignment is to determine their opinion on libraries without calling it one.

An unfettered system of access to resources to use and learn from, with no identification required, based entirely on a system of trust, funded by everyone.

the fact that the ceasefire kicks in sunday, the day before trump's inauguration is not an accident. the optics and theatrics in there are deliberate. I'm thrilled if this lasts, I'm just saying Trump is a snake.

HB121 passes the Montana House of Reps 58-42, the first bathroom ban to pass in 2025 a legislative chamber.

The bill would ban trans adults from state and local owned bathrooms of their gender identity.

By virtue, it would also target rep Zooey Zephyr in bathrooms.

Sad day for trans Montanans.

amidst this whole tiktok ban, it’s especially weighing on my heart how many thousands of stories of our collective existence as trans people being erased because of the heartless decision of this government (screenshots are just a handful)… may we continue to survive past whatever the future brings

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.

Congress: Protect The Right to Dissent
Congress is considering a bill that threatens free speech under the guise of national security - and we can’t let it pass. Take action against this harmful reaction to pro-Palestinian protests.

coming to the realization as a disabled person and just a Black queer person in general that you don’t need the external validation of encountering role models that look like you (bc you very rarely will) to dress & exist however tf you want is honestly so liberating

I’m asking you to listen to disabled people. We’re often the most ignored minority and also the only one you can join at any time. You want to be prepared for a revolution? Listen to disabled people because we know how you’ll be treated once you become one of us.

genuinely did not expect that all of my 1 million and one hobbies and side projects that resulted from growing up an only kid and homeschooled would end up being so useful for the amount of organizing and activism needed today 😭🥹🙏🏾
