6 years ago, our Nusayba rang the bell and was officially cancer free.

She's now a 9 year old diva. A stage 4 cancer survivor with a full liver transplant thanks to once anonymous donor Shawn Zahir who donated a piece of his liver to save the life of a girl he never met.

God is great.

There honestly cannot be a satire cutting enough to make fun of Americans. What the fuck do you mean the highest colonial ideal you could imagine was a parking lot with McDonald's on both sides

We gathered to remember Renee Nicole Good.

To grieve. To bear witness. To hold one another.

Thank you to the 40th Ward and Pink Poster Club for organizing last night’s vigil and to everyone who showed up with care and love.

We keep us safe.


Justice for Renee. Abolish ICE.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

This. So much of the site was on board with "Let's fight censorship of pornography and age verification!" and then the moment a furry made a mod that wasn't even pornographic, suddenly the Very Serious Liberals decided that queer people were actually degenerates who needed to be purged.
feels like there was a moment where people were like "let's fight against paypros by being openly supportive of all queer and kink art" and then world war III started so everyone started looking around for a bathroom to trash or a trans person to strangle.

Transphobes need to be removed from the democratic party. Supporting that trans people like me should have rights. Is the absolute bare minimum. No compromises on human rights
2. Gor reasons that have left trans youth and their families feeling betrayed, nobody seems sure if it will happen, as Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin, a Democrat, refuses to put it to a vote—even with about half of the legislature, including the majority of Democrats, already signed on as sponsors.

Still shocking to me how many self-professed progressives turn into raging queerphobes when they come into contact with furries.

These people's brains would explode if they saw actual furry porn. Hell, there's literally a mod that makes all the villagers nude.

Our first ad of 2026! Because politics stuck in 2006 won't meet the moment.

It's time to stand up to ICE, white supremacists, and the billionaire oligarchy.

Stuff like this is designed to make legitimate complaints from staff who have been exploited by these companies seem fake to laypeople. Its one of the many reasons I fucking hate AI.
We’re entering the age of AI slop that people believe en masse.

This post is 100% fake and probably AI generated. All made up. Yet massive number of upvotes, views and shares.

Journalist @caseynewton.bsky.social got in touch with the “whistleblower.” The guy faked all “evidence” with AI…

This is a hill I will die on. Furries are unambiguous allies of queer folk and we are shooting ourselves in the foot by attacking them. People need to get over their ick about the animal stuff. Stop doing the bigot's work for them. Do not let the right turn us against our allies. Now more than ever.
I, for one, do not think furries should accept being called pedophiles over a G-rated mod, and the discourse about that should last as long as it takes for Bluesky normies to admit that’s bullshit.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

The only criticism of the finale I have found in good faith is the concern about Eleven's ending. The show, whether intentionally or not, made the point that abused people can only end the cycle through death or disappearance. I do not think this was intentional but its worth criticism.
Stranger Things finale was pretty good imo. A nice send off.

I think Stranger Things has always been a show haunted by the idea of what people think it could have been. But the last season was a great cap to the show that it actually was, and had been since like season 2.

No more strongly worded letters. It’s time to draft articles of impeachment.

I have a REAL ID driver's license but I have for the better part of the decade kept a US Passport Card in my wallet, not only due to paranoia but because sometimes you need two forms of ID for things. That said, I wouldn't bet on the sort of chud who works for ICE these days to know what one is.
As the article points out, the entire supposed point of REAL ID was that it would prove you were who you said you were, and that you were a citizen or legal immigrant.

It's invasive, requires A LOT of documentation & admin burden on both people & states, and is apparently... worthless to DHS.
the latest example of ICE claiming a previously recognized government ID (issued by its own agency no less) is no longer valid

You are objectively right but I HATE the cut away gags so much. Maybe I just need to watch his space show. Maybe its better.
I think there are a few reasons Seth MacFarlane's animated shows are (sometimes) regarded more positively than SOUTH PARK
