Texas becomes the latest State to propose a mask ban. These are ugly laws. They’re discriminatory & push disabled people further out of society. They increase the likelihood of police harassment. They paint maskers as “bad”. There’s an excellent document with scripts for how to call & fight back!

Masks are great, tell TX legislators to eat shit and die

The entirety of the anti-woke crusade can be boiled down to one proverb: “Where knowledge is a burden, ignorance is bliss.” The opposite of “woke” is “sleep.”

They’ve changed it to LGB without the TQ, as if you can talk about Stonewall without Marsha P Johnson

"There is a wide body of evidence that Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) maintained a special interest in and appreciation for homeopathic medicine. It is therefore not surprising that many of Lincoln's advisors were users of and advocates for homeopathy."
