right now we are at "first they came for transgender people"

One of the best things I ever did for myself was stop comparing my life trajectory to people who have support systems. I won’t say I never had help, but I’m just now truly understanding the difference between “assistance” and “support”.

As promised, updated scripts here for HR 9495, which will be headed back to the floor around Wednesday. Yes, this is the bill that gives the Sec. Treasury powers to strip non-profits of their C3 status. 1. For House members, 2. For Senators, 3. For New Yorkers to call Schumer. Please call.

(keep calling)

Seriously though. The notion that you can win votes from people who say “pronouns in email signatures made me mad so we should leave NATO” by trying to please them is ridiculous.

“behind the avatars and cartoon profile pics are very real people. “ This is a great essay. Thank you.

Best take I've seen.
