This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards
robert f. kennedy jr. submits his application to harvard university. his application is, in its entirety, a single page with his name "Robert F. Kennedy Jr."

he is accepted immediately.

Well this explains all the “people” with no followers or posts annoyingly responding to my post about watching Veep instead of the news.

again tapping the sign: please support Wikipedia and other quality information sources - especially local news, double especially newsrooms that are worker owned and reader funded
it’s becoming increasingly clear the goal of the far right is to defund and buy up every source of reliable information until there is no more objective reality to counter them

I spent basically the entirety of the ages 9 through 12 mainlining end times prophecy books, and I never thought that knowledge would come in handy, yet here we are. I feel like Gaius Baltar saying "I know a lot about farming" in the BSG finale.
"Evangelicals get the broad strokes of the antichrist eschatology correct but worship the antichrist" would be the darkly funniest timeline of all time

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Major news breaking from NOTUS on Trump’s trans passport ban:

It will not be retroactive.

Very glad I and others encouraged people to get their passports in the lead up to Trump’s inauguration.

Now hopefully this EO is defeated in court.

Trump’s Gender Order Won't Affect Existing Passports — Unless They’re Renewed
“They can still apply to renew their passport — they just have to use their God-given sex, which was decided at birth,” the White House press secretary told NOTUS.

TLDR: There is nothing enforceable for the immediate future. It will take months or years to implement this via rulemaking or bureaucratic changes which are then subject to legal challenge. While it's worrying, there's no immediate change yet for most trans people. Do not comply in advance.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

For the record, if I accidentally did two Nazi salutes back to back, I’d probably be using the social media company I bought to say “holy shit I’m sorry, I did not meant to salute Adolf Hitler twice on my big day.” In fact I think this would be the response of most people
