It costs money for GB News to pump hate into Britain's homes. Much of that money comes from Sky, which also makes much play of being a force for good. We've made it so easy for you to write and politely ask Sky's Chief Executive to stop funding hate. action.goodlawproject.org/sky-stop-fun...

I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe. She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today. RIP Elisa.

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I am the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Major breaking trans news: The ACLU has launched a lawsuit on behalf of 7 transgender people affected by Trump’s passport ban. Incredible filing. The Trump admin is now swarmed with lawsuits over discriminatory and illegal executive orders.

"A Portrait of Ga": Pretty lovely in the constant linkages that Tait strikes between her mother and the countryside that surrounds her, never simply quaint but always intent on capturing a few of the elements that make up a life; lots of vitality to these images.

LGBTQIA minors make up 40% of the endangered minor runaway population. They are 120% more likely to be unhoused. They are also uniquely at risk for exploitation and trafficking. This is breathtakingly evil.

This same lady was in New York on V-J Day and slapped the shit out of a soldier trying to kiss her in celebration, and used to watch James Bond movies with me, and would complain about how terrible a spy Bond was. She was so cool. I miss her a lot.

There's an extremely expensive all-natural grocery store next to my work and yesterday they had a "day without immigrants." There was almost no staff or any of the tons of house-made food they usually sell. One of my customers commented she thinks people in Mill Valley already "get it."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

The great thing about Know Your Rights trainings is you can print out a card with Your Rights, or even multiple cards in any languages your neighbors might use, and tuck them into your wallet or phone case, just in case you ever need them! It's legal. In fact, it's Your Rights!
