Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment. In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community. You have a home here always.

They're wrong. They're wrong about you, and wrong for trying to harm you. So, so many of us know that - and we can help you. You're so much stronger than them. 🏳️‍⚧️

They don't care if it's legal, if it's justified, if it sticks - the humiliation, the physical assault, is the point. The ones giving the orders are emotional children who just want to hit and push people they hate. Legal fees and fines are the trivial price tag they've long accepted for doing so.

Don't look to Trump or his lackeys for reactions to the weekend's protests. They'll lie, threaten, belittle, punish - the usual. We'll never humble them, and they'll never take accountability. That's not the goal. Fuck them. Our goal is to unify. Mitigate loss. Build community & coalition. To hope.

When we are organized, when we are motivated, when we are together, we are stronger, we are louder, and we are greater than the sum of the threats, violence, and cruelty.

They have no culture, no platform, no unity, and no opinions unless they can be outraged. So many things - Pride, green energy initiatives, protests, social service programs - are provocative to them because their entire philosophy falls apart if people aren't selfish, greedy "sinners" at heart.

We finally know how much it takes to humble a narcissist.

For those lucky enough not to have lived through one, this is how an abusive relationship works. You can be in the right, you can be defending yourself, you can be staying perfectly still, and they will still make THEIR violence YOUR fault. And the violence is guaranteed.

I unironically listened to Pure Moods on cassette on my little Walkman while riding the bus to elementary school. That (and a loose, dusty James Brown tape) was all I had! Anyway, "Return to Innocence" still slaps.

We need art. Loud art. Loud art in the street. Loud, inclusive, feel-good art in the street. Authoritarian art sucks ass - it needs to. Whimsy is rebellion. Carry sidewalk chalk and scribble happy bees on buildings. Make joy. Give hope. Create art - especially if you aren't an artist. You matter.

I shopped around for new glasses and now every website capable of supplying glasses is screaming at me to buy their glasses but I already bought glasses. Guys help.

You can't wean my entire generation on the urgency of environmental protection, the detrimental effects of GHGs & fossil fuels, and the personal responsibility to fight for the natural world, and then expect ANY OF US to believe that this is a decision based on anything but idiocy and greed.

There are lots of misconceptions I would love for everyone to understand about eating disorders but first and foremost I wish people understood that they are incentivized by a society that chooses to model and reward extreme thinness as the beauty standard in a million little and big ways

I really do not give a shit about trans solidarity from cis people unless you are actually do something. "Protect trans kids" "Trans rights are human rights" Sure, that's lovely but what are you actually doing aside from belching out T-shirt slogans. Actually do something. Literally anything!

The amount of work and level of skill that it takes to spot this as AI is cumulative. If you took Fox News or Bonsai Kittens at face value? You'll believe this, too. The average person doesn't have the discipline, time, eyesight, or patience to question every instance as thoroughly as it requires.

Two days remain to comment on the US FWS and NMFS rule change that undermines the Endangered Species Act (ESA). This proposal rescinds the definition of “harm,” limiting protections to actions that directly injure or kill listed species, leaving their habitats vulnerable. Please submit comments! 🧪
