We got there! Together, we raised over $564,000 for @translifeline.bsky.social. 🏳️‍⚧️ Trans rights are human rights and all are deserving of equality and love. To everyone who was a part of this, from myself, @goberthicks.bsky.social, and all of us here at Tolarian Community College: THANK YOU. 💙💜🤍

“If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.” Damn. static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

My least favorite people are the progressives who jump to say “it won’t matter” every time someone makes a suggestion. “They won’t care.” Maybe that’s considered a good contribution to progress where you’re from but I actually think you’re more damaging than anything else.

In the grocery store asking the eggs why they aren’t cheaper after the president’s executive order on lowering costs. They aren’t answering. Typical.

My work computer has been installing an update for the past 30 minutes. The fan sounds like it’s about to actually explode. It better be able to make me breakfast or something after all this.

How do I tell BlueSky to just stop showing me anything Trump related? I’ve muted every single word I can think of, but that doesn’t stop the posts that are *images* of text.

I did some shopping on Amazon for a religious co-worker and wound up purchasing something faith-related. Now Amazon apparently thinks I'll be leaving for the seminary any moment.
