Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

Disability is not a personal or moral failing. Everyone is one accident, infection or stroke of bad luck from becoming disabled. When someone asks for help, give it freely and without strings. Don’t judge them or tell them to “try harder”. One day it’ll be your turn.

"But how am I supposed to find time for my art when I'm working full time?" Time theft. You commit time theft. You're already getting screwed by your employers. They're not paying you enough for the time you give them. Do it on the clock. Even if it's just a few words on a scrap of paper.

Listen friends - gather your hope where you can. People showed up in all 50 states on a moments notice. Voicemail boxes of senators are filling up. Lawsuits are being filed. Look at all the good people. And do not forget to take care of yourselves. Seriously. This is a long haul.

The GOP majority in the house is 3 seats. There are two special elections in Florida coming up and one in NY. With a few bucks to donate to those efforts, we can shave or even erase that majority. We don't have to wait two years.

Resistance starts with rhetoric. We can always pivot back to stronger language. Segregation Anti-integration Racial purges Ethnic cleansing I’ve always called corporate DEI stuff “racial integration programs”.

My latest. As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality. I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI. Let’s be clear. We are facing racial purges and re-segregation. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

How’s everyone doing today? Make sure you do at least one of these self-care things this week: • scream into a pillow • question the status quo • sign a petition for political change • vent with a friend • hold space for a venting friend • have a lil treat • spend time in nature • smoke some weed

This crisis has been overwhelming in so many ways, esp for our toddler. Our family is so grateful for the assistance. I try to keep my child and their life offline as much as I can, to protect their privacy and to keep them safe, but this emergency (and asking for help) requires full disclosure.

If you're feeling weird going to work today and having to conduct business as usual while a Nazi executes a coup on the federal government... ...it's not just you. This is an objectively weird situation and it would be weird not to feel weird about it all.

If you're calling your Senators about confirmations, don't just ask them not to confirm RFK Jr. Also ask them not to confirm Russell Vought for head of the OMB. He's a Christian theocrat and architect of Project 2025, and in that position he would have immense power over Federal funding.

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

What Donna didn't say is that because of our lost employment/insurance situation, not only can I no longer try to help her but she's been trying to help us. Having your insurance tied to employment remains a scam. Thanks everyone who has helped or who has shopped: thebrokencircle.etsy.com

for everyone else: buy trans literature & art NOW while you can. there’s a non-zero chance that queer and especially trans voices wind up being temporarily silenced at some point over these next 4 years. support trans people now while we can still ask for help & make incredible art in public.
