I hope you all read this from me.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.

However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.

I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.

Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Trans rights are human rights. Gender affirming care saves lives.

You could get good info from @laughterinlight on Tiktok
I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.

the message isn't "you're bad" the message is "you have to be good like everyone else"

ICE says it’s just doing what it’s told. The president of El Salvador says he’s powerless. Trump officials are acting like they’re not responsible. But the monster’s already been unleashed. And when a modern-day Gestapo like this is allowed to thrive, where will it all end?
The ICE Man Cometh
Trump’s Gestapo is here. It operates throughout the country. It can suddenly arrest anyone, with no crime alleged, and deport them for permanent imprisonment overseas. Will anyone stop this?

The case for Trump becoming a Forever King is being made by his fascist lackeys brick by brick, day by day, lie by lie.

Another day, another lie. Another brick.

This is leadership.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in his final days in office asks Canadians to ask WHY.

Why does the leader of Canada’s conservatives REFUSE to get security clearance?

Why does he REFUSE to put Canadians first? It isn’t a slogan when it’s not backed up. It’s a lie.

having been in many rooms where protests are initially orchestrated, i can say sights like this are a highly desired outcome. protests are inherently theatrical & part of that is triggering state actors to unwittingly adopt the role they were born to play.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

A decade ago, I went on book tour with Sybil Lamb. We did 32 cities across the US/Canada, read with dozens of writers and met hundreds of people.

So many of them are now dead. All of them are transsexuals. The oldest didn't make it to 50. I say this because I want you to live and I'm going to too.

The Nazis arrested, imprisoned, and often executed those who helped Jewish people avoid capture.

Just a reminder in case that little fact gets stripped from school textbooks over the next few years.
