So true!

Cities and states really need to start passing laws that payouts from lawsuits against police come out of their pension funds, rather than municipal & state money. Shit would clear up real quick.

Going to the theme parks is supporting anti-trans legislation. Buying the books is supporting anti-trans legislation. Buying and playing the games is supporting anti-trans legislation. Talking up the franchise in any guise is encouraging others to fund anti-trans legislation.

For all the US-folks that follow me. Please do this!

It's hard to explain how, in the 80s and 90s in NI, pre internet, as a kid, unless you had a queer person in your immediate family, you just didn't even know queer was a thing. And yet I'm still queer. You can take away the words kids can use to describe themselves, but they will always be queer.

As @garnettillie.bsky.social & I have been saying for a while now: It’s a death cult.

Watching MSNBC today I noticed that they had hired former MT senator John tester as a paid analyst… My immediate thought was “wow off the top of my head I can count 3 old cis white Guys named John (tester, kaisic, heilman) and yet they still “don’t have the money” to pay any transgender analysts” 🤔

every gender transition is a statement in favor of human possibility and freedom and i’m tired of hearing it talked about like it’s some kind of disease

I would love to see coming generations of queer and trans kids not have to spend their adult lives working through the trauma of being queer and trans kids. I wanna sit in my rocking chair and marvel at their lives.

Oooof. Keeping all the trans ppl in the UK in my ❤️ today. This is brutal

The takeaway here is that they'd rather let your kids go hungry than let trans kids be themselves

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Farmoony www.kickstarter.com/projects/ehs... I’ve been really getting into board games lately and am backing this one…maybe you can too? See the second thread of this post for alt text of the image attached to the kickstarter link

I made this political ad and will make more in the future to support grassroots socialist political campaigns globally!

This is my life now lol

One of the journalists I pay because of the incredible work that she does…maybe you can throw a few $ her way too?

Excited to spend the whole day playing board games at @terminalcitycon.ca today. Woke up suuuuuuper early cause I felt like a kid on Xmas! #TCTC2025

We don't all have to be focused on the same fights right now. There are many fronts & fights. The most important thing is that each of us take up one or two. That's really it. Get to ground, find your people, and fight like hell.

Reminder: it was never about sports. It’s about wholesale elimination/eradication.

For some reason, Prince's followups to "When Doves Cry" didn't go over quite as well. Nobody bought the singles of "When Geese Poop" and "When Crows Cuss People Out"

bookshop.org/p/books/wood... Sat down to read “just a couple pages” from “Woodworking” last night and now, 24 hours later, I’m 250 pages in and knee deep in all the queer/trans feels! Thank you for breaking, & then repairing, my heart with such beautiful finesse @emilystjams.bsky.social

In case you were wondering about the ABC's party's effects....

Mon & Fri at 12 pm ET, I co-host DEMOCRACY-ISH with the fabulous @daniellemoodie.bsky.social. We're 100% independent. We keep it real. We don't kiss the ring. We call out all sides. Try us out with today's episode if you've never seen us, & give us your feedback. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1HY...

We need to trust our eyes. Nazi salutes, racist purges, an ambush on the Ukrainian president by a far-right regime. If what we see aligns with what we know and is also in line with an established track record, our default assumption should be that what is happening is actually what it looks like.

Does anyone else bank with Vancity and have a budgeting app that connects to yr personal chequing account? I’ve tried monarch & pocket guard and both don’t connect 😞
