now we’re talkin.

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

I’m going to really try not to post when I am in an active fear response. A scary story about dangerous events doesn’t need my personal fear injected into it to enhance its capacity to terrorize . I want to help us (myself included) feel braver in those moments.

i have been waiting YEARS for this to come out, and it's finally here! can't wait to boot up this chill, queer af, puzzle dating sim 😍

The fifth horseman of the apocalypse is Misinformation and it rides a zebra

the reason I don’t say I’m an “ally” in my bio is because it’s not up to me. marginalized people aren’t looking for declarative statements, they’re looking for action & evidence. they know who their allies are.

BREAKING: everyone

Happy Black History Month! Here is my favorite story about a Black American you may not know about: Robert Smalls. He commandeered a confederate ship and sailed himself, his family, and the other enslaved crew and their families to freedom. THROUGH waters controlled by the Confederacy.

To clarify, Lawson is the engineer who made, while working on the Fairchild Channel F, led the team who put the ROM files onto a cartridge. Video games as we know them would not have been possible without this man's work.

Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.

i’m all behind the message, but like… what’s with the Jeopardy!-looking color and font lol

“trans rights are human rights!” yeah we know. what are you materially doing about making sure that’s not just a mantra? how much money have you given to trans people? are you telling your family and friends about our suffering? your coworkers? your congregation? we need results

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...

Me all goddamn day today under my breath as my coworkers applauded this shit

I strongly advise you to get this into your mind and then to try and drill it into the minds of everyone you know. Do not comply in advance. These hateful authoritarian lunatics are incompetent and stupid. They are relying on you treating them with respect and compliance to achieve anything

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

this one has me real close to tears.

A lot of people learned about Dr King through the lens of white people as a great moderate unifier whose greatest dream was for his children to befriend white kids. Let me remind you they don’t assassinate great unifiers. Dr King was a radical.

That TikTok stunt pissed me off

i’ve made it an annual tradition to order from trans girl scouts every year (except one year when i bought from troop 6000, comprised entirely of unhoused girls). i hope you do too!

So today I learned that Gerald Ford’s name at birth was Leslie King. That means it is entirely possible acknowledge and respect the name and identity of someone who decides to change it.

HELL yeah. i’m so ready to abandon Meta like i did with X. now i just need a decent replacement for Amazon…

hear me out: a scholastic book fair for adults that comes to your work. so those that couldn’t afford books as a kid can redeem themselves with adult money 😭 📚

“get his ass” is so hilarious. it's like the modern version of “seize him”

remember the reason for the season

Hey it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog! Nancy Mace is a bigoted transphobe, and that's no good! I'll always stand with our friends in the trans community. It's the right thing to do!

The moon, in your eye: like a big pizza pie The moon, in your iPhone: that’s abhorrent

Seems like the vibes took a hit in the last hour

ONE (one thing wrong with me) TWO (two things wrong with me) THREE (three things wrong with me) FOUR (four things wrong with me)

Can we have an eclipse every Monday? I’ve gotten so much less email today.

Watch it!

Here’s the deal: We stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential.

when you have an exactly 9 minute long dream after hitting snooze, that's DLC

The first few notes of Yeah are like sleeper agent trigger words that activate older millennials

This. There's this misconception that if you're not posting about it, you're not doing it, which is false. Posting about things helps motivate others, but it can't be the sole measure. It's also a recipe for burn out.

these are the same image

Hey it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog! RFK Jr is an anti-vax conspiracy theorist whose campaign is bankrolled by the far right to serve as a spoiler candidate in the general election! His entire family has disowned him because even they know: he's no good!

Destroying your hope is how they win. They *want* you to think they are inevitable. They *need* you to become cynical so you stop fighting back. Hope is literal power, something that keeps you energized and focused. That's exactly why they want to take it away from you.
