Here is a great website, where you can put in your zip code and see what specific cuts in Social Security in your area Republicans are proposing and what that will mean for you specifically. democrats-budget.house.gov/house-republ...

"Debi Tirar Mas Fotos" truly feels like Lemonade for me: A watershed moment with a kick in the door from an established artist who has secured their position and is now like, "Let me introduce myself." A love letter to your people, your country, your culture, your art. I'm obsessed.

I’ve made jokes about this and oh my god it’s real

For our own safety: as the Frizz, I AM DECLARING THE AGE OF SCOLDING OVER We do not ask what protests we are attending We do not talk about organizing We do not talk about what resistance groups we may or may not be a part of THESE ARE NOT SOCIAL MEDIA SAFE ACTIVITIES

One of my faves, my friend & comrade Monica Trinidad has new art that can be freely downloaded. justseeds.org/graphic/be-l...

If you live in the NYC Metro Area, help spread the word about the S_onewall Action. Download, Print and Post the Action Flyer everyone in the NYC Metro Area (and don't forget LI, Jersey, Westchester and.. and...) #Stonewall See you on Saturday.

Another word for "regulation" is... "consumer protection" "environmental protection" "Regulation" means your milk is safe. "Regulation" means toys that harm your babies are removed from the shelves. "Regulation" means chemical companies can't dump waste in your river.

I think planes shouldn't crash

The cop fund suing Target is 🤌🏾

Laraine, Gilda, and Jane, together again.

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans. Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

I have four flights in the next 10 days and I'm deeply, deeply concerned about my safety on a plane for the first time since 9/11.

Replaying the Batman Arkham games and I'm so incredibly happy. Brilliant game design, writing and voice acting combine to make one of the great video game series of all time. Such a delight.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

The infrastructure of the Internet would run longer without electricity than without trans folks tbh

Just finished playing Disco Elysium for the second time and dear God, what a stunning piece of work. Just a triumphant novel of a game. Gonna keep looking at my writing, asking if it's hardcore enough or if I could make it more ultra.

I haven't had energy to write in weeks: I had a slew of travel, got hella sick + a stack of work a mile high. But, I miss it. And I can feel new characters sauntering through my periphery. And the Clarion application is due in four days. Gotta find my feet. #writingcommunity #bvm

SHUT IT DOWN SHUT IT DOWN SHUT IT DOWN

I love Donna Summer so much, I have "Bad Girls" on this playlist *twice*. Open both those doors, baby.

The best pole routine I've ever seen was set to "Somebody to Love" by Queen. It's been my north star ever since. We could build playlists but that's gonna be really hard to beat for me.

I just opened my Beyonce pre-sale options and Lord in Heaven deliver us from delusional. We... not when eggs are $12/dozen. No, ma'am. Let me know when that Vegas residency drops.

The furries and sex workers are essential to the good vibe of this place. Any place with full-time fur suits or people with well developed OnlyFans accounts will do so much better at keeping the Nazis at bay, it's not even funny.

I spent a significant chunk of my play time yesterday trying to figure out what the best background music would be for Disco Elysium: Kenny? Fallout 4 Radio? Skyrim's ambient soundtrack? Nope. It's Donna Summer and Slyvester. Disco Forever.

I'm on a serious Wild West kick right now, so hold my hand gently as I watch "Lawman: Bass Reeves". For reasons beyond comprehension, this show, which is on Paramount+, was made be MTV???? Did I think the home of TRL would be doing Civil War renanacments? Nope. Weirdest timeline.

gritty has seized control of the federal government

Within the first week of #BlackHistoryMonth: - Black people swept the top awards at the Grammys - Beyonce makes history as first Black artists to win Country Album of the year - Kendrick Lamar makes history as first rapper to headline the Superbowl - Jalen Hurts wins the Superbowl LOVE IT HERE.

The visuals from Kendrick’s halftime show reminds me of Gordon Parks work I can’t put my finger on the connection but it’s something

THEY’RE CLIMBING THE POLES IN TOKYO GO BIRDS🦅🦅🦅
