My sister is in New York and she sent this picture from outside Stonewall

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

We are stronger than the haters and bullies.

I think we don’t give ourselves enough credit for not giving into temptation. Always focusing on how much we messed up by eating a donut or sneaking a smoke. But you know what? Almost everyday we walk past places like this and DO NOT look inside. Give yourself a break.

Imagine still believing that America is the land of the free when they’re doing this to a journalist at a press conference

I post lots about alt text as disability justice. You should use it on all images and enable the “require alt text” setting. But if your username uses a fancy font, is full of emojis, or has other tedium for screen readers, all your posts are inaccessible, even if you use alt text. Listen to it:

Call to action 🚨 Persuade journalists to cover the attack on ASL interpreters. This isn’t the first time it’s happened. It’s on a much larger scale right now. SEVERAL massive accounts are advocating against on X.

these guys really loathe the idea of any language than English being spoken is part of this. they don't actually get that ASL is its own language, but if that possibility arises, they don't like that, because their bigotry extends to anyone not exactly like them.

I think if you’re a young person (or an older person frankly) considering some kind of creative project, the state of the world is more or less “fuck it we ball” like, you might as well

We shouldn’t accept that a CEO killer must get a national manhunt when cops don’t solve most murders at all. A migrant teenager was just murdered in NYC, cops just killed a guy here — the lives of these other people are worth just as much as that CEO.

I am begging the Liberals to understand that people who cannot read with proficiency and ease cannot effectively access information. 50% of Americans read at or below a 6th grade level and the other 50% ain't doing so hot. That's not an accident. There's a reason commies put literacy as a top priori

Thinking today of Carrie Ann Lucas, a shining light in the world of disability justice who died at 47 from a preventable series of infections because UnitedHealthCare needlessly denied her coverage. www.forbes.com/sites/sarahk...

aspire to live your life in such a way that 40,000 strangers don't 😂 react in the comments of your companies memorial post

Co-signed. If you are cis, even if you are really nice, even if you genuinely are an ally, you are going to believe things that are glaringly wrong and not know some crucial things that are true. I have never met even a single cis person to whom this didn't apply.

If you see this post, can you please help spread this information? #ASafeChoice is a referral network of physicians who provide medication abortion services ACROSS THE US. People everywhere need to know about this option. These doctors have capacity to help more women! Let’s spread word! ❤️✊

it is a WILD day for health insurance providers in new york to openly declare they're going to be worse to their customers

Irreparable damage of puberty blockers but half of American boys get concussions from repeatedly running into each other and call it “football”

Chase Strangio, first trans attorney to argue at SCOTUS, walks out to cheers.

Anyone else squeezin' every drop of joy outta each day before 2025? #BlueCrew #joyfulwarriors

America's problems with urban planning go way back. for instance, Cowboy Architects were famously so inept at building towns that hardly any of them were big enough for as few as two (2) people

Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who agrees it's absurd that MAGA criticized former DA, former Attorney General, former US Senator, and current VP Kamala Harris as "a DEI hire..." ...while an adjudicated rapist, convicted felon is appointing a cabinet full of unfit, unqualified clowns.
