“Just leave the country” is not an option for most disabled people. Many countries won’t accept high cost health users. Many have income and savings requirements before they will even consider you. Leaving is in many ways, a privilege. Fight for those who have to stay behind.

Despite the proclamation in 1865, the last folks to be freed from slavery was in the 1960s. In that century, we saw the mutation of peonage into sharecropping, then its further transformation under the 13th amendment. Slavery, for all intents and purposes, is still here.

“you’re going to die because of this” is not a thing i’d ever say to a trans kid, whose life is hard enough as is. i didn’t get the care i needed. i survived. “some trans kids will die because of this” *is* a thing a lot of cis people need to hear. the ones whose “reasonable concerns” led here.

conservatives: children are property of parents. children do not have autonomy. children do not have a choice if their parents wants them to do something. parents who don't suck ass: what if i want my child to do the thing that makes them happy? conservatives: no that's illegal

It was always about, “‘Medical freedom’ for me but not for thee.” Supplements, refusing vaccines, and quackery Freedom! How dare anyone tell us what medicine we can and can’t use! Women’s health care and gender-affirming care for trans youth? Now wait a minute! It’s wrong, and you can’t have it!🙄

it brings me no joy to announce that another scammer in the same ring has decided to start running their scam again. "vico-trans" was a well known scam and you'll notice that the scammer wiped all their posts, changed their name a few weeks ago and immediately started posting under the new alias

It’s instructive about where we’re at that the right likes to accuse people of virtue signaling, where people talk about seemingly positive or noble personal virtues, while this guy sends out a tweet saying “no one asked but I feel the need to tell you all that I don’t care about emancipation”

I see a lot of people backing the Trevor Project this year. While they do good work, management does not do good by their employees. They are known for union busting. Please check out Friends of Trevor United and give directly to trans people instead.

See also the (imaginary) 1000 families suing the Tavistock. Cass, even though she was given free run over all of GIDS records (4000 or so) could only find fewer than 10 detransitioners, being rushed into surgery and hrt wasn't mentioned by them, in fact, AFAIR, one even said the process was too slow

In libraries, we call this vocational awe. The idea that if you are invested in your calling, you should accept low wages/inhumane conditions is a nasty little trick of capitalism. I’m an author, I’m hungry, I care deeply about my work, AND I deserve to be paid for it.

If you're cis, I strongly recommend reading this. It was part of what cracked my egg, but the reason I think you should read it is because you have no idea what this is like and too many of you think it's just about liking pink and skirts

Also: this kind of stuff is why you can't just fucking use an LLM to do research for you. There is no easy way around rolling up your sleeves and doing original research.

Me and @zachrabiroff.com have discovered that a gay, disabled, pill-popping Yale Drama grad likely ghostwrote many of Stan Lee's most famous comics Marvel Comics and Disney don't want you to know about Ron Whyte New from @flaminghydra.com below "Face it tiger ... you just hit the jackpot!"

Just in time for that protest y'all went to unmasked.

The international fruit industry, and sugar (they tend to go together) is one of the biggest and most powerful colonial empires in history and have subjugated and oppressed more indigenous communities globally than almost anybody other than the Catholic Church. They're in the genocide business.

This is a joke of course but also it's not, the whole chud philosophy at this point has masculinize the concept of "suffering" such that any attempt to alleviate suffering is perceived as feminine and therefore gay.

“I have shot video all over the U.S., all over the UK, and in Japan. I’ve never seen anything that bad,” Wilson said. “The amount, the size of the plume…it’s really, just horrible.”

"I told you so isn't helpful!" I'm not trying to be helpful. I was being helpful when i told you. I was being helpful when i showed you the videos, shared the reading materials, and the studies. Now im being an asshole because you didn't want helpful.

Also: these "alt" fake government accounts have definitely dabbled in Q-adjacent conspiracy fodder posts, skeeting shit like a series of numbers, followed by "please ignore." What the fuck even FOR, fuck outta here with that shit. Whoever's running these accounts are grifter assholes.

So ask yourself, did you see anything about this in the initial coverage of Brian Wilson’s death? And if not, why not? Its not coincidence. uk.news.yahoo.com/brian-wilson...

"deeply religious" is usually a euphemism for the kinds of views that, if he wasn't a white Christian, would lead to politicians calling for wiping out an entire other country

DID YOU KNOW: you can just say this, you don’t have to game out shadowboxing with someone who isn’t trying to take away your right to exist, like the people who *are* trying to do that hope you get stuck on

And 44 of them will tell you they're not Christians while they do it.

This is beautiful: denied art supplies, incarcerated artist Juan Hernandez learns to make his own canvasses, and then creates an instructional zine to teach others to do the same. "As the Illinois prison system continues to take away resources from us, we must find creative ways to undo their harm."

Not many masks at all in the photos from yesterday. I know, I'm a big SCOLD (the only thing worse to be in America than a fucking racist, apparently), but there were people who wanted to be at those protests yesterday and if you didn't wear a mask, you, yes, fucking you, excluded them.

Concussion protocol at protests is important these days. Victims try to tough it out, but their decision-making is impaired. Please understand that the lucid interval of epidural hematoma can range anywhere from 30 minutes to a full day after initial unconsciousness. Learn to spot obtundation.

Here to be a bummer and remind folks that it was under Obama that Water Protectors came under attack by federal & multi-state LE agencies, roads blocked off to cut off supplies, attacked by dogs & water hoses in freezing weather with Obama saying he just wanted to "wait" and see how it panned out

There’s a growing trend of big “left wing” influencers/journalists mocking BlueSky for talking too much about ableism, attacking disabled activists, etc. It’s extremely reactionary and insidious to do as eugenics is being full on normalized and our healthcare/public health is being dismantled

every time I have said this on here I have had people [usually the same ones who cite Chenoweth's 3.5% statistic (which she points out isn't to be interpreted in the way many people interpret it)] screaming that this isn't true. It isn't true 2 them because it doesn't FEEL like people are protesting

i feel it is worth pointing out that Christians United For Israel, a single maniacal christian zionist organization, has more members than there are jews in the united states

Most Zionists aren't even Jewish, a fact that gets glossed over when critics of Zionism get called "antisemitic" almost kneejerk by MSM mediocrities Christian Zionists 'support' for Israel is support in the same way the noose supports the hanged man

"When Harvard treats criticisms of Israeli violence as antisemitism or of Israel as a state for Jews above the other people who live there, it reduces Jewish identity to a political litmus test – one that erases the rich diversity of Jewish thought and experience."

So qualified immunity needs to end and we need to go ul against it with "So what if a burglar sues." Cops right now are told not to risk their own lives to catch someone. They need to learn not to risk the suspect or bystanders lives either, and getting sued is the only way to learn.

My essay about the brilliant, pioneering & shockingly forgotten showrunner-pioneer Gertrude Berg, who invented the family sitcom (pre-Lucy!), then got eaten by the blacklist in the 1950s — a story with disturbing modern parallels www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.

Big shoutout to the people in power who said "Kids don't catch it" "Kids don't spread it" "Kids don't get sick from it" "When kids get sick from it, it's mild" www.newsweek.com/why-are-so-m...
