We have actually had this talk in our house and so should you. The best leaders usually don't want to lead. Half of you are influencers. Turn your followers into constituents.

Hey there. If you're lucky enough to have queer and trans friends, please reach out to them. Just text: "Hey, things are scary right now, but I want you to know I love you and I've got your back." It means a lot if you do. And it's absolutely noticed if you don't.

It's depressing that when I say, "If Michelle Obama was pulling this, under a Democratic president, we would be just as upset," conservatives and especially MAGA folks legitimately believe I'm just lying to look good. That is an insurmountable fundamental difference.

I have thus far avoided actually hearing any official say the name of Edolf's memelord coup department out loud (in favor of only reading about it) because I would take too much psychic damage.

You don't have to say you were wrong. Say you were lied to, and then roll up your sleeves.

I'm upset but I will say this: our history isn't reliant on a .gov site for preservation. When has the US government EVER accurately represented the queer experience? What they're doing is performative cruelty. But most of them think "GOT EM!" because most of them can't competently use the internet.

There needs to be some kind of penalty for representatives dodging questions in official interviews, debates, etc.

I want to stay in the country and protect my community for as long as I'm able. That said, my grandpa traded away the family cow to get tf out of Stalin's Lithuania on a vegetable cart, so I trust his Force Ghost will let me know when it's time to leave.

Something that really resonated with me as a kid and shaped my worldview was Looney Tunes cartoons. The way they mocked and fought the axis powers, corporate greed, and pretention served as a real demystifying and defiance of authority, and challenge to power. I loved them for that. So I made these!

I don’t have to fend off the desire to comply in advance. Anyone who knows me knows that, fortunately or unfortunately, I would rather die than let someone I don’t respect tell me what to do.

Should I be concerned that nearly every internet service I use is asking me to agree to updated privacy terms? Or is this all chill?

Not irony. Not "Republicans getting what they deserve." Not a sunk cost. Not lost income. Not comeuppance for shutting down federal services. They dream. They reason. They solve problems. They care for each other. And they're in a lot of trouble. www.avma.org/resources-to...

All of this racism and homophobia directly reflects the world that MOST of our government officials knew when they were 10 or 11. Geriatric nostalgia run amok. What will our generation be pushing for in those positions in ~40 years' time? Incandescent lightbulbs? The return of SD and analog media?
