Some beautiful work from my favorite artist!

WHILE I'm ranting.... I am also irritated AF about these bills and shit to end SW in the name of "protecting women" from "exploitation. If they really gave a shit about that, Epstein's list would be public. All names on it would be in prison. The woman in Georgia, ANY abortion bs. ALL EXPLOTATION.

There's a straight line from the normalization of harassing queer people online as a right-wing sport, to politicians replatforming violently queerphobic agendas, to the emboldening of those very right-wingers in moving their stochastic violence from radicalization chambers to offline.

No Pride this year, folks. It's Wrath now.

This was a hate crime in a series of hate crimes Jonathan and his husband Tristan dealt with. Neighbors said he was behaving "erratically" but who wouldn't react with such extreme emotion in this situation? He was murdered on the first day of Pride. Indigenous people are not numbers. Say his name.

This is a really good thread. Having been...not in the middle of but adjacent to a lot of conversations in transmasc spaces, sometimes involved, I do have a lot I want to unpack, so I'll come back and do that in the replies soon.

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

My “you’re over 30” advice is to never let go of passion, who you are, or your convictions—no matter what anyone or any entity says to you.

Screw a comfort character, who's your CONFRONT character? I recently did a Hannibal rewatch and I just want to beat his ass.

“Leftists are mean” dude, the other side wants us in camps. Sorry we hurt your feelings while fighting for the right to exist

I leave you with this before sleeping. This line gets me every time in the movie. Citizens are the real countries. Not those in power of those countries. Not those in them that raise wars. Not those screaming for boarders. But the ones who love, weep, laugh and see themselves in their fellow man.
