In the age of performative cruelty, #kindness is #punk as fuck, be punk as fuck.

Oh phew, seems like they’re doing ok after all.. what a relief…

Heads up🚨 Coordination needed. The EHRC consultation on updated Statutory Code of Practice opens this Monday 19th May & will run for 6 weeks. The EHRC will be holding Q&A sessions with stakeholders representing affected protected characteristic groups. www.equalityhumanrights.com/media-centre...

The most bare bones honest assessment of the mess we are in. It's not IF. It's not WHEN. IT'S HERE WE ARE IN IT

ALA is alarmed by the termination of the Digital Equity Act grants program, a seismic investment in America's digital infrastructure. This abrupt & illegal termination is extremely concerning for the libraries relying on funding to connect their communities. More: www.ala.org/news/2025/05...

This morning, the Supreme Court hears a landmark case on Birthright Citizenship. At stake? The 14th Amendment. The right to citizenship by birth. Pay attention. History is being made, right now.

The state of Georgia is keeping a clinically BRAIN DEAD pregnant woman alive at 20 weeks pregnant AGAINST her family's wishes believing they've the right to decide for her and her unborn fetus. This is happening right now. They've made her into what they believe female bodies are: an incubator.

🔥 @alsobrooks.senate.gov to RFK JR: “You have been unable to answer specific questions. You are the wrong person for this job… and you just had the unmitigated gall to say China is ahead of 🇺🇸 in health care because they don’t have DEI.” (He denies it — so we included receipts👇🏽)

“As we continue to look at what is happening in the current government, we need to advocate for the needs of our sovereign nations. We need to hold the federal government accountable to upholding their trust responsibility.” — ALA President President Cindy Hohl www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

I am really, really tired of this attack on decency and the truth.

It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

Lost my last grandparent yesterday. Rest in peace Grandmama Olivet....

"My best advice for parents out there who feel berated or beat down by the world about their neurodiverse children: First: Believe in yourself, in your kids, & in your love for them." A whole bunch of good advice by @katiepryal.bsky.social: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/livi... #neurodiversity

"The local police arrived to prevent the community from protecting their neighbor from an unlawful kidnapping. They succeeded, and in the process arrested two of the people who tried to stop it." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The fact that the attorney general's last job before this one was lobbying for the Qataris is a little on the nose.

Happy Mother's Day

“Mexico has sued Google for adopting the name “Gulf of America” for users of Google Maps in the United States, President Claudia Sheinbaum said, making good on an earlier threat to take legal action against the tech company over the name change.”

She’s out!! They have released Ozturk from ICE custody!

🔥 Kimmel on @repstansbury.bsky.social gloriously trolling Marge for using a doctored photo to try to make a witness look bad

“We don’t have to worry about warrants..If deputized by ICE we can do anything we want. Every human is worth a dollar amount.” This bounty hunter stating ICE was going to hire bounty hunters & pay them 1k -1.5k per “illegal” is both chilling & believable based on what we’re seeing. #DueProcess

Hannah reached out to me a while back about this effort and while my spoons are low I am super stoked to potentially help make a difference in the diagnostic process. Any other Autistic diagnosticians out there want to join the effort! Check out Hannah's post below:

"The holistic medicine doctor has voiced anti-vaccine views and focused her work on treating chronic illnesses by focusing on nutrition" people.com/who-is-casey...

This is so beyond offensive, ridiculous, and scientifically unsound. Which is par for the course for this administration. Note the part about smartwatch data. For decades now, the FCC has been avoiding and fighting the regulation of digital information. This is beyond alarming.

Even the children know what's right and what isn't. The tribalistic manner that the reporter is displaying and asking questions in has never served humanity in a positive manner. Keep speaking truth to power Kaif!

The director of the FBI of the United States folks.... This guy's a weasel and a horrible human. Listen to him refer to all the people deported as "illegals." No one is illegal on stolen land. Also, is anyone else concerned that their lips don't match the audio?

My Mom's little dog Olive's tongue just hangs out sometimes now that she's had some teeth pulled... so cute.
