So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

The secretary of wrestling education, Linda McMahon, sent a “scathing” letter to Harvard, telling them that they were no longer eligible to apply for grants, blah blah blah. This is Harvard‘s response. 😂💀

I HATE clocking dolls based on their sweet vibes and curly hair alone! Like I’m sorry bestie I didn’t mean to make extra eye contact with a knowing smile you’re fish I promise it’s a me problem.

The state of USA tech workers the last 5 decades

They’re taking people off the streets

I know those ai message reply suggestions aren’t for me because tell me why this suggestion was “Sure.” when I was about to type “bb you know I would do anything for you”

And also to so miss the point that this attack on us is about constructing norms of sex and power that will affect everyone. The positioning of “trans issues” here ranks among the worst Times offenses and that is saying a lot.

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.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall. They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+. Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them. I think about it a lot in moments like this.

Introducing two trans women is like introducing two cats.
