I am honestly upset by this.

I want you all to understand how very deeply conservative both Fitzgerald’s and Grothman’s districts are, and have been, for decades. I know these people well. This is no small thing.

"No kings, ___" is a good template if we need a catchy slogan format No kings, save Medicare No kings, protect trans kids No kings, fund science research No kings, hell yes functioning democracy Etc

I’m a trans man in Maine— please let Gov. Mills know that we need her continued leadership to protect our trans youth 🏳️‍⚧️⚧️ and keep Trump's authoritarian ambitions in check ✊!  Please add your name & repost ! www.change.org/p/gov-janet-...

folks who have wanted to donate to the families impacted by the water main break in southwest detroit but couldn't get down there with physical donations, there is now a fund you can give $$ to: www.flipcause.com/secure/cause...

"Idiot Quickly" made me laugh.

Okay, that's pretty good.

Yes, it is entirely correct to point out that ICE officers do not have any legal authority to break into somebody’s home unless they get a judicial warrant; which they generally cannot do, because judges only issue warrants for probable cause of crimes, not immigration law violations.

hello this is your friday reminder that the link between autism and vaccines was fabricated fraud for financial gain from the start & that being Autistic is way fucking cooler than any preventable, disabling, and potentially fatal disease

It would really help if the cisses spoke up for us! If nothing else, it helps with court challenges.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

ko-fi.com/dreamingnoct... Hi everyone! I am still job hunting, but as I do so, I also need to pay rent, and buy food and pet supplies! It is due on the 1st of March, sooooo about 11 days. Thanks! Anything at all helps!

Bumped into Wallace Shawn on the street in New York City right after the election and struck up a convo and he was ABSOLUTELY GREAT and it was like we were neighbors and he'd known me for years and New York is the greatest city in the world and Wallace Shawn is fantastic and he's my favorite Bond.

Imagining Wallace Shawn as Bond is just the cheering up I needed today.

SB104: Bathroom Ban What do you need to do? - You don’t know if your school has trans students. - You don’t see if trans students use the bathroom. - You don’t need to report or tattle on trans students. See nothing, Say nothing. THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN ALLY.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional. This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on! Huge win for trans people in MT!

New Twitch email scam. It's pretty convincing, tbh. The only real tip-off is that Twitch would NEVER be this generous. Oh, and it comes from a Gmail address. Anyway, don't be fooled!

As my rep, @repshontelbrown.bsky.social, I am asking you to do this. This is actual action that would show you're on the side of your constituents.

Trans friend and family, just scroll right past this and know that you are loved. 🩵🩷🤍 Now cis people: let this story be seared into your memory and understand why we must FIGHT FOR TRANS PEOPLE. No one deserves this, least of all someone who was just seeking love. R.I.P. Sam Nordquist

I recommend bsky.app/profile/xblo..., a labeller that helps you avoid screenshots from other platforms (or even from Bsky). It has helped me learn that I'm not missing out on a damn thing if I don't see that Twitter screenshot, even from posters I respect.

There is a litany of platitudes - like this - that comfort the listener, not the struggler. (Worst IMO: “Everything happens for a reason.”) Better options, context dependent: “I’m so sorry to hear.” “Shit, that sucks.” “Thank you for telling me. Do you want to tell me more?” “How can I help?”

As I just shared this in a comment, I will also share it here. We made a free workbook associated with Let This Radicalize You. We included a bibliography of organizing resources pp. 100-109 - books, podcasts, curricula, articles, etc... www.interruptingcriminalization.com/resources-al...

I can never get very far through these EOs because they make me apoplectic "Autism spectrum disorders had the highest prevalence in high-income countries, including the United States, in 2021." You know why that is? Because getting an autism diagnosis is EXPENSIVE.

Protests beget more protests as people see that its ok to express frustration openly.

Woke up mad! So I folded the laundry, did the dishes, and added more helpful links to my gregpak.link old school directory page. Check it out!
