Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

This will especially hurt rural folks

Never.

Considering at least one of 45's impeachments was related to his efforts to blackmail Ukraine into rolling over, this seems a rather apt analogy, yes. #WeRemember #HistoryLived #FightMisinfo

This was my former grad student. I'm in a state of shock. We didn't end things in a good place, but this is not what I would want for anyone. www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2...

Never hurts to remember that the current administration seems to only be working for people who can AFFORD medical tourism. If you can't toss out thousands of dollars to leave the country for medical treatment of a loved one at the drop of a hat... they're not working for you. #healthcare

Couldn't think of a better way to start the day with some good trouble for some great kids! #TransrightsRHumanRights Where governments fail, communities must rise 💖 #lgbtqia #lgbtq #diversityandinclusion #dei #diversity

For my mutuals in SD County, we have a jackass County Supervisor trying to run up a ban on trans athletes. Oppose this bullshit and reject this proposal! Took me less than two minutes and that's with leaving an angry comment. Hit the link and speak out against this! tinyurl.com/SDTransAthle...

We're currently working on a new format to make our site posts more accessible. Thank you for your patience and any sharing in this time. We hope to have constructive news soon.

Right now, the U.S. is in a media crisis. Just in the nick of time, I'm starting a newsletter series about understanding media in the twenty-first century. I'll teach you how to challenge and change the messages that our media carries. Let's go. buttondown.com/thehypothesi...

Gee, being hauled off the street for nothing other than not having the "right form of identification on you" sounds suspiciously familiar 🤔 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_...

Gender legislation is feminist inclusive. It seeks to protect ALL genders, their autonomy, their access to healthcare & civil services, and their humanity. 80% of Indiana's top headlines, and for the cases listed here, we know there are dozens that aren't; so, who ARE you protecting with your vote?

Silence is construed by history as affirmation. Do not go silently. Be loud. Be proud. We love you. #diversityandinclusion #diversity #inclusion #lgbtqia #lgbtqplus #mentalhealth

Democrats fears of appearing "combative" in any capacity continues to knee-cap, UNIRONICALLY, democracy. 😣 It's the only reason we can guess that their election campaign continued to rely on snide remarks regarding decorum rather than "don't vote for a man formally indicted by the law," full stop.

I'm just referring to the statement his administration made in its announcement TikTok was shutting down here to some phones, which I saw with my own eyes on a phone, about how diligently Trump will work to restore it. If he's had a role in banning it, he will still take credit for restoring it.

SAY IT WITH YOUR WHOLE CHEST, YES! 🥰 If you have questions about the current state of the US economy, incl. wealth disparity & increasingly poor labor rights protections, this is where to start!

We need to break the billionaires’ grip on our democracy — and that starts with loosening their hold over local media.

This is the perfect analogy. If you want more people to run, you don’t give them mopeds. If you want more people to make art, you don’t give them image generators. This doesn’t “democratize” anything

KOSA is deliberately designed to, and will be used to, ban all queer content online as "pornography" including helpful orgs such as Trevor Project and Trans Lifeline. Tell your reps to vote NO on this monstrosity.

The day Sesame Street is cancelled is a dark day indeed..

Our staff literally have PARENTS who've lost siblings and other relatives to this disease; how can you THINK to SUGGEST reintroducing it to the US, even for some stupid political maneuver? If this is razzle dazzle, it's truly grotesque and perverse theater.

BREAKING: Federal judge rejects a challenge to the use of race in Naval Academy admissions policies. The lawsuit was brought by the group that successfully sued to end race-conscious admissions policies in colleges. In that opinion, SCOTUS noted that it was not ruling regarding service academies.

Today is Bandcamp Friday, where they waive their share of revenue & artists get all the $ when you buy downloads, discs, merch, etc. If you're sharing your Spotify wrapped & it includes indie artists consider actually throwing some $ their way (here's mine) sarahpinsker.bandcamp.com/album/someth...

When asked which news outlets we follow, we've always said AP, but we've been increasingly recommending Teen Vogue and Teen Cosmo as well. We've seen articles from both suggesting a commitment to research, veracity, and education that's heartening considering their target demographic.
