The newest episode of Shivam and Wheeler Love Magic came out today where we talk about Kaladesh. I think it’s our best episode yet, especially when paired with the upcoming Arther Revolt, and I’m so thankful to have Shivam to help guide me through it all. sites.libsyn.com/460224/sawlm...

full moons no excuse to skip lifting bro!

what brings ye campin out here this late at night lad?

For all the white folks asking what yall can do. This. Use the power you have that we don't. Say the things that you can when we can't. That's what's helpful. Not following random Black people and hoping for a protest playbook. "Allyship" is cool, but what we need is overt solidarity. Show it.

something artsy

Please read this story about a teacher’s extraordinary, unending service to her students as they try to heal from senseless trauma and loss. It’s equally devastating and beautiful, and makes me wonder how many additional stories like this go untold in a country poisoned by mass shootings.

It's my 36th birthday today. I don't really feel any wiser though, haha. But all I can do is keep on going, huh?

Seeing progressive activists and speakers follow me is amusing because like... hi, I also care deeply about the state of our world and want people to live safe, happy lives with real justice. But I'm also a big gay furry and you're going to get handsome animal-men on your timeline now. Whoops?

I know it's tempting to use "Boer" as shorthand for literally any white South African if you don't feel like reading up on the history, but there are significant cultural and social differences as well as different histories between English and Afrikaans white South Africans.

Don’t mess with me. (Art by Human on FA!)

Today is the last day to download ALL the books you paid for from Kindle, cos Amazon are about to pull a fast one. 😮‍💨 Spread the word! www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

Silly gay fox. He's got cups on his ears #nitw #nightinthewoods #art #gregg #nitwgregg #artist #digitalart #fanart #drawing

I think people have fundamentally misunderstood the multiple roles conspiracies fill in a fascist movement. The conspiracies are both a permission giving structure and a tool to neuter push back when they actually deploy their own agenda of industrial death. “Well the dems were doing it already”

major props to the associated press for not capitulating to trump. they're setting the standard for what news should be - independent, committed to the truth, and ready to stand against authoritarian governments.

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

This is a stunning betrayal by Whitman Walker in DC. You CANNOT jettison the trans community to protect yourself. It’s shameful. I got my name changed at WWH. I have promoted their research. Now they are capitulating to save gay people at trans people’s expense by trying to erase us.

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue: 1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance 2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion 3. Don't live post resistance meetings

an old photo of doggie kruger from his rookie days...? who knew boss was such a heartthrob back then!? 👀💦💦 #barawerewolfart

Go Zheng Lijuan!!

As i said the last time we had this guy, now is a great time to reconnect with your spiritual traditions, even if you aren't a believer. There is a calming power in ritual, and in making a slow space for yourself

I read this today, and I feel it in my bones. I hope some of y'all who are in a position like I am will choose this. Because it's only by growing that we become more understanding, and if we've outgrown people who keep us down? They're the ones who are afraid. Not you. :)

What truly fills me with despair is how Americans are fine with this — even happy about it, enthused at any degradation of immigrants. Is a Republic made up of such people worth preserving?

I am begging the media to put the focus on what was cut, and what the effects of those cuts are likely to be, rather than some nebulous topline number that implies to people that they’re actually doing what they say they are their “savings” will cost us far more than this, in money and terror

There’s a reason I don’t use the transphobia labeler. I’ve seen it weaponized against trans and nonbinary people who have spoken up about harassment, threats, doxxing, transphobia, and transmedicalism spewed by other trans and nonbinary folks. It protects a clique of serial harassers.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

ICE going door to door in LA starting Feb 23

What is happening to trans people is an extension of what can happen to all people who could be redefined out of existence. Which is all people. What is happening to trans people is a universal threat.

A bit of Queer History for your Valentine's Day. While not the only gay bar in New York in the 1960s, the Stonewall Inn's major draw was that it was gay bar that providing a dancing venue.

"My name's Wynd. Pot-Smokin' Long-Haired, Homosexual Hippie, at your service." a sketch commission I got of Wynd, the werewolf hippie from my current WIP novel #HairoftheDog Sketched by the talented @possessedopossum.bsky.social. Give some love to the original artist.

Roses are red May our bonds never sever To take down these fascists Solidarity forever

Genuinely wild how one kid was like "please stop killing the planet for money I literally don't think we have a future" and it made these people so mad they decided to burn down the United States

Undocumented immigrants with no other criminal record have been transferred to Guantanamo. Access to lawyers, denied. Their families kept in the dark. Why were they taken from the U.S. and moved to a prison designed for terrorists? Unclear. Evidence suggests it might be because of their tattoos.

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

hey guys. bit of an emergency. i might be homeless soon if i can make a payment to the irs. if anyone's willing and able to help, i'll link my kofi and remind u guys that im open for comms. i'm sorry to keep asking, its been a rough year ko-fi.com/wafflethekod...
