Fuck the GOP, people are going to die from this shit. "Help Not Harm" my ass

It's 3 degrees outside and the furnace at my house is broken, great

The Kansas City Chiefs suck. Three straight years with no players playing in the Pro Bowl, smh my head

We're about to get some really good albums in March: spiritbox, lucy dacus, whitechapel

1. Happening now, the Montana House of Representatives will be hearing HB121 on the House Floor. This bill would ban transgender people from bathrooms across the state in many buildings, and would hold those who let them pee liable. Follow along with me. sg001-harmony.sliq.net/00309/Harmon...

people will go on the internet and say anything “you should be respectful when people die no matter how horrible they are” no you shouldn’t. that isn’t true.

RIP Bozo lol

Ok, this fire seems bad, hope everyone in socal is alright

It's crazy that we get a new ethel cain album and a new uscsb video on the same day

Once again, we need anti-SLAPP laws in every state and a federal anti-SLAPP law. You shouldn't be able to sue a publisher because you disagree with the framing of their accurate story.

Welcome to the public domain, THE SKELETON DANCE (1929). 🎞️ 🎶👻 Walt Disney Studios' first Silly Symphony cartoon is a wordless masterpiece of synchronized animation & music featuring dancing skeletons in a graveyard. ➡️ https://blog.archive.org/2025/01/01/welcome-to-the-public-domain-in-2025⁠

Happy New Years!!

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

seems a bit dramatic

I just finished listening to the audiobook of The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. I really liked it, 10/10 recommend

Ashton Jeanty was robbed

A Florida woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call with BlueCross BlueShield with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.” She was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, and her bond was set at $100,000. www.wfla.com/news/polk-co...

in hindsight the NYT anti-trans crusade is one of the most despicable things that any big time journalism outfit in this country has ever done. a perfect and clearly intentional layup for the fascists on the Supreme Court

pretty grim when health insurance company executives have to try to hide their identities online like they're public school history teachers, government employees or doctors who care for transgender people

I think the difference between these two months is funny

I am your favorite midwest princess' favorite midwest princess

Happy Henry Kissinger Is Dead Day to those who celebrate.

I hope it’s remembered that the first trans female member of Congress was almost instantly targeted individually by half of Congress and then abandoned by the other half. This is life for trans women even in one of the highest offices in the world! This is standard transmisogyny!

It's all tied together and don't let them trick you into thinking it's for safety

On this TDOV please remember my girlfriend Eden Knight, who took her own life after being coerced into being taken back to Saudi Arabia where her parents forcibly detransitioned her. Not a day goes by without you in my mind or heart. I love and I miss you so dearly. I wish I could hear you again. 🔆

Trans day of remembrance. Don't just focus on those trans people who have been murdered by strangers in public. Also remember the trans people who were denied healthcare, allowed to die in prison, encouraged to kill themselves by their loved ones, buried under the wrong name by their families.

10 years ago a single bathroom bill passed in north carolina received so much pushback from all angles that the fucking NBA boycotted the state btw. that’s where we were then versus now. cool cool cool

This is an echo of the general election. The trans Democrat is blamed for "sparking" the crisis despite the fact she did nothing beyond be herself. Before she arrived to DC, or made any demands, the GOP preemptively turned her identity into a political issue. So, who is doing identity politics?

it disgusts me the national democratic party barely pushes back at this attempt from the right to wind back LGBTQ rights decades after claiming to be the party of LGBTQ rights

This is such a dumb move on Sarah's part. She's condemning all trans people to horrible fates by not fighting back. open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

fucking hell I was really hoping that the pharma folks could successfully shiv RFK now that Trump got what he wanted from him (his voters) there's no sugarcoating this one: it's going to be a complete disaster for public health, and if you rely on medication you can stockpile, you should

Well I'm fucked.

If scotus gets a 7-2 far right majority because of trump winning, then obergefell is gone (probably already gone with 6-3, tbh), a bunch of 1a, 4a, 5a, 8a, and 14a rights are gone, bostock is probably gone, maybe even windsor, johnson v texas, lawrence, griswold/eisenstadt. This is going to be bad

Welp, we're fucked
