Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

Are we acting like he's gonna follow this court ruling... Because he's actually followed so many of them... Thanks #SCOTUS for your ruling on Trump V. USA...

It's almost as if granting a criminal blanket immunity was a bad idea.

Weeping and angry with my UK trans sisters, brothers, and siblings today. Their supreme court just stripped them of their legal rights, declaring that AGAB/ASAB is their legal sex. No trans person was consulted, and JK Rowling personally funded the group that pushed the decision through.

Take a white guy’s favorite team and pair them with a bad ref, and suddenly, that guy understands systematic injustice

A reminder.

Nope. Our trans kin are owed an apology by spineless sycophantic politicians. @democrats.org Do you know what we call the politicians who cozied up to the Nazis to stay close to power? Nazis... they are called Nazis.

Does anyone in the GOP have a spine?

It seems like the political elite are starting to feel like normal, everyday Americans... let alone those most oppressed and ostracized but society (whose very existence is being made illegal)...

I never thought I’d agree with Donald, but here we are. Impeach.

Just leaving the Illinois Fiber Festival with some beautiful merino/nylon and merino/angora bunny yarn by Carole Makes indy yarn dyer from the Indianapolis area.

#Knitting 🧶 #MenWhoKnit #KnittersOfBluesky #KnitSocks 2 knee high socks completed for my eldest. Two small skeins of merino in colorway "Dreamsicle". Toe, heel and cuff in Patons Kroy Sock yarn. It was only 215 or so rounds each sock... Toe up, short row heel, 2x1 rib for 20 rows, lace bind off.

Things I'm learning no one wants to buy: -bisexual pride hats -knitting patterns what DO you want to buy from my shop? what would you buy from me?

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Not ironic, however, is the safe landing of the US Air Force C-37B in Moscow...

I know we're all wrestling with the same fears and uncertainty rn and I just want to state for the record that NOT being okay right now is probably the only appropriate state of being.

#knitting 🧶 #Knit #MenWhoKnit #KnitterOfBluesky A rainbow knit bag for stashing knitting stash money. Worsted weight cotton yarn on 4.5 mm circular needles using magic loop. It was fun to knit! If you want, I'll give more details, but ⬇️

Yes folks please process that what’s happening right now is that Mr Nazi Salute has access to the personal information of every Jew in America, along with every person who gets/has gotten disability benefits, and so on The Holocaust was an administrative process that included lists of targets

Obviously, the removal of the T from the LGB at the state department has been much discussed, but the QIA+ part matters too. Intersex people have discussed that more eloquently than I could, but as a Q and an A…I’m worried. Small thread with tw for aphobia and queerphobia.

Turning off socials for the day. Can't deal with watching my faith be branded unconstitutional snake oil by the sitting admin... and the *gestures vaguely in the direction of the dumpster fire the last 2 wks has been* This is exactly what he wanted. Might see y'all tomorrow... Might knit instead.

If you support the current administration and their policies, your claims of supporting the people they target are... inaccurate at best.

Hope is the librarian handing the banned book to the queer kid.

At 78 years old, it is illegal to refuse to hire someone based solely on age. The #POTUS himself is a #DEIHire

One bishop, in one church, literally just asked the president to be nice and him and everyone in his circle been melting down for a week. These aren't strong people. They're very, very weak people. They can be beaten.

I liked Bishop Budde's homily enough, but it really illustrates how the Democrats and media and anyone who should be vocally opposing him and this administration are complete pieces of toast that an appeal as gentle as hers has sent the right completely over the edge.

It's been four days and I'm already exhausted...

An efficient facism does not require much direct state violence. It merely requires the assurance that private violence aligned with the desires of the regime will go unpunished.

These items are still available at 35% off! ko-fi.com/crippledcomm...

And Lord knows these fascists will say whatever that need to say in order to get power. That's been proven time, and time again.

Challenge accepted. When you know better, Do better.

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

#Knitting query My mom got my kids sock yarn. They are fun colors (Blue Lotus and Big Cyprus National Preserve colorways from Knitted Wit). I want to cable, but wondering what you think: c2, c4 or c6? I'll go cf or cb depending on how it points to the center. Thinking 2 cables on each side.

"Indiana University Football shouldn't have been in the CFP" Ok, then why are the ONLY TWO TEAMS that beat them this season the two in the championship game???

Any teacher who intentionally puts a student should not be eligible for certification reciprocity in states that purport to be safe for queer students.
