Whelp. Here it comes. I guess I'm going to brace for impact, and hope I have a job in the next few years. But it's not looking likely.

I've been at this for a while. A punk weirdo in the 90s & we saw all of this for what it was. Homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, racism, religious persecution, atheist bashing, anti-abortion, science denying. All for a goal of wedging people into homogeneous streamline. Easier to control the masses.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

A couple years ago some simple minded fool tried to tell me that gays are protected and we don't have to worry about anything. What's it like to think that way? Is your life better? Happier? Do you have a sense of peace?

Taking away rights from trans people isn't stopping the crimes you "claim" it's stopping. It's fostering hate crimes against innocent trans people with your animus. And it's unnecessary. We already have laws against those things & this is a way for the powerful to control, hurt & exploit people.

If we give up on our values we give up on everything. Values are very much worth holding onto. Big hugs to everyone who is at least trying. ♥️

Uh. Am I back on Twitter. WHAT YEAR IS IT?! @gailsimone.bsky.social ❤️

Let me get this straight... the dismantling of government by billionaires sounded better than simply taxing billionaires in an equitable way? Yeah that's why I've always said, "if they're telling you to look down at the little guy in hardship, look back to see who is picking your pocket."

This is amazing news for sexual and reproductive health. Too bad the US is burning all our goodwill towards Mexico. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I voted for Kamala & am extremely disappointed in our reps who are distracted when they could be out causing good trouble. Not this BS from Jefferies stating that "I don't swing at all the pitches". Well, swing at SOMETHING! Have a single seat alone, my dear.
