If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

"You received without payment, now give without payment." Jesus, Matthew 10:8 "The Point is you can't be too greedy" Trump, "The Art of the Deal"

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

I love scary movies but living in one for 4 years seems a little excessive.

Good morning, Bluesky ☕🌞 Happy Sunday!

RFK Jr. is a fraud. Always has been.

we all need leslie jones in our life #happythanksgiving

My mom, as many know, has said some truly unpleasant things to me over the years, but this far surpasses that. While this mother has apologized for that letter, it sounds pretty truthful to me. I cannot imagine ever writing such a thing to my sons unless they deserved it, even at a tense time.

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

America fumbled so hard

Good morning, Bluesky! ☕🌞

It never stops being weird watching homophobes dance to YMCA, the most popular gay anthem of all time.

Bill H.R. 9218, aka the “Defining Male and Female Act of 2024” is the anti-trans bill that will endanger not just trans people, but women as well. Full text of the bill in this article. The part about “gender role” should sound every alarm. open.substack.com/pub/insaneth...

Those who believe that government funded religious schools will solve the problem of “religious discrimination” are going to get way more than they bargained for. Like they say: When you mix politics and religion, you get politics. open.substack.com/pub/curmudgu...

One man's delusional paranoid fantasies are another man's actual political beliefs.

Ending no-fault divorce is not "JD Vance's idea." It's been a major objective for Christian Nationalists for decades. If it succeeds, a lot of abuse victims will suffer, and some will die. No-fault divorces save lives.

Project 2025 would attack rather than protect transgender & LGBTQIA+ people from illegal discrimination, denying gender-affirming healthcare, banning use of preferred pronouns in school & erasing LGBTQ people from public view. Support inclusion/diversity. https://bit.ly/3OarO3n

Having civil listening conversations with real people (not talking about trolls) in our actual lives who are on the other side from us and listening to their concerns is the only way to move us all forward.

“Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to highlight the losses we face due to anti-transgender bigotry and violence…With so many seeking to erase transgender people…it is vitally important that those we lose are remembered, and that we continue to fight for justice.”–TDOR founder Gwendolyn Ann Smith🏳️‍⚧️

X: Blocked people can read your tweets Bluesky: We will send an agent back in time to stop the blocked person's parents from ever meeting

It's trans day of remembrance where we remember all of our siblings we've lost this year to violence and hate. We know we've lost at least 350 trans and nonbinary people have been murdered in the last year. We honor the dead and fight like hell for the living.

Hey all, we're launching the new legialerts bot that will track anti LGBTQ legislation. We're already starting with a massive drop of bills in Texas that includes a full bathroom ban in government buildings.

Where are all the teachers?
