When we fight we fucking win never let them convince you otherwise. A tiny group of trans people did what Gay Inc. couldn't and you can fucking do it too

I write whole books, yes. But I also contribute to other books! Here's a few books about art and literature that I've contributed to over the last few years ♥️

I'm grateful for every invitation.

Washington, D.C., has a population roughly equivalent to Alaska's.

And it has zero senators. If D.C. had senators, the GOP megablil bill would have failed today.

Instead, Murkowski got carve-outs and money for Alaska, and then voted to subject DC to the bill

This bill is going to harm millions of Americans right now but we won’t know the true toll for years.

It’s time for Democratic leaders, donors, and organizations to use their dollars to fill the gaps Trump is creating: fund clinics, stock food banks, protect communities.

I don’t even have words for the evil that has been and continues to be done by the state…

…well actually I have words, they’re just not words I can post on here.

One of the bluest cities in Florida and it constantly gets some of the worst republican political representation in the state….ill be happy when I never have to hear her name again.
Republican women would rather die than admit they were wrong on abortion bans. It's mind boggling.

We are getting reports of clinics shutting down that provide care to trans youth over the latest CMS letter threat.

If your clinic has shut down or you work at one, or your child's clinic has shut down, please send us a DM - we are putting together a big story on this.

Chat, is it good when your military in a liberal democracy is talking about Tiananmen Square
"They are also worried about a potential Tiananmen Square moment where you have a protester standing in front of a tank. That is not what America is supposed to look like."

I mean speaking as a geriatric millennial, algorithmic feeds have always felt distinctly UNnatural

I originally left Facebook when they switched the main news feed from chronological because it felt so viscerally awful
i’d be curious to know whether any of the journalists who have taken to bluesky had prior experience in an earlier internet age with forums. for me at least, my acculturation into the social internet was by way of forums and so the lack of an algorithm seems natural to me.
