Every so often you work on a story and there’s like a giddy feeling you can hardly contain because you all know it’s just an absolute heater. That feeling is something I’ll be chasing for the the rest of my life. Glad to finally be able to share this one with the world.

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

@broomsticknpen.bsky.social Am I remembering correctly that you were recently wishing for the City Bakery Mint Cookie Shake? I just walked by the Kichijoji branch and they had a poster up featuring the shake, so maybe it’s back?

I’m constantly shocked and horrified how much anti-trans views are accepted, even by those that would not say the same thing about another marginalized group. And I think it’s telling. It ties into misogyny and gender equality and shows just how far behind we are in those areas too.
The "misinformation" in question here is that gender-affirming care reduces suicides among youth. It merely reduces depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal ideation.

Something that always bugged me about Garden State was that when she gives him the headphones New Slang is just starting. She was listening to Girl Inform Me. She thought Girl Inform Me would change his life.

Must listen to interview with @karenhao.bsky.social on the morality of AI. Kevin pushed back hard, but she ran circles around him!

I pre-ordered her book, and you should too: karendhao.com

It’s kind of funny? ironic? that Project 2025’s main thesis is “We need a King!” but now Trump is making one of the largest cases in the history of the modern world for why having a king is a bad idea.

We're all struggling right now. Collectively, our mental health isn't exactly great. But separate your catharsis and self-soothing from your *advocacy.* Think about what you're putting out into the public sphere, and be deliberate about venting/soothing in private. Not where we all can see it.

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!
2025 Trans Girl Scouts To Order Cookies From!
This year, consider ordering your Girl Scout cookies from a trans girl scout to make their day!
