"When they push, when they pull, tell me, can you hold on? When they say you should change, can you lift your head high and stay strong? Will you give up, will you give in when your heart's crying out that it's wrong? Will you love you for you at the end of it all?" — XTina

Reminder to the folks with uteruses: tear gas can really fuck up your reproductive system. Even minor exposure can offset your cycle and do some other nasty things to ya. I bled for weeks after prolonged exposure to tear gas in 2020. If you plan to exercise your 1st amendment rights, wear good PPE

can't believe this even needs to be said but you don't have to be queer OR Indigenous to mourn jonathan joss's death or talk about it or advocate for those communities amplifying marginalized voices is important, yes but using your own voice is important too

I have no interest in shaming anyone for arriving late to supporting Palestine and opposing the genocide Especially Americans who received a propagandized education I don't understand all the infighting I also arrived late Didn't even know what Israel was until the war

Did you see the tons of aid that were destroyed at the Rafah crossing yesterday, while people here are dying for a piece of bread? Isn’t this injustice? Isn’t this cowardice? Isn’t this a disgrace?

As someone who lives in Waterford City... this really puts it into perspective. Free Palestine.

If the question is "how can this be happening? How is this legal?" then the answer is "illegal =/= impossible, and laws aren't force fields."

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

@jay.bsky.team @moderation.bsky.app Please please change your approach to Palestinian accounts. It’s increasingly difficult to see it as anything other than a deliberate attempt to silence their voices.
