We can't just assume nonwhite people are homogeneous? We have to connect with a wide variety of cultures and groups and their needs? We can't just scold people into voting for us cause we are less bad? That sounds hard. /s www.politico.com/news/magazin...

You can tell how migraine swamped Ive been lately by how far I am into rereading Murderbot. I just started audiobook 6.

Have you watched this excellent intro to #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #MECFS #PEM by @scishow.bsky.social ? It's only 8 minutes long & jam-packed with important info (including helping folks with #LongCovid that matches mild #ME identify #PEM & prevent harm 🙏🏻) www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxSw...

I've worn this hand woven flag on my coat for years. I've made my clothes and done visible mending for years. They were always protest. #transmasc #transvisibility #ootd #fatfashion #disabledandcute #mask

I love video but hate scrolling. I want a pile of bits with torn edges I can stick together with glue. I want to tape your words to her photo of the ocean to that protest hymn to my last to do list. Chronological or AI. Both slide up and away and gone and new new and new and never again
