Trump yesterday, repeating something he’s been saying for years (re: tariffs, which he said would make the US “rich’): “it’s going to stop us from being a laughingstock all over the world because we have been taken advantage of like no country has been taken advantage of.” Let’s unpack this a bit./1

do wanna point out that this is fringe even for texas and has no companion bill in the Senate, which would be necessary to actually have this as legislation. still terrifying, worth keeping an eye on, worth making a BIG deal about. (and i say this as a trans texan.)

Tonight's @equalityarlington.bsky.social rally to keep Arlington Public Schools inclusive even though state and national leaders are leaning into anti-LGBTQ+ positions. Respect for everyone and DEIA are the true American values. Many of us in Arlington are proud to be on that side of the issue.

This evening, I addressed the importance of ensuring LGBTQ+ students and staff feel safe, respected, and supported in their educational environment. APS maintains an inclusive space where every student can thrive. I commend the Superintendent and School Board for their stance on this matter.

Join us and AGIA tomorrow afternoon at the Keep APS Inclusive Rally! We're meeting in front of the Syphax building to tell APS to keep defending the rights of trans students and to not back down to the illegal pressure to erase transgender students coming from the Trump Administration!

"Leaders... said they’d fielded numerous calls from the parents of transgender youth worried about this legislation. Senate Majority Leader Jamie Pedersen, D-Seattle, said his office had gotten over 500 emails and calls from constituents about the bill." Your voice matters. ❤️👊☎️

It's funny how, living in the DMV, family used to call to check on us if it rained too hard in Baltimore, but now their politicians are ruining the lives of my entire community and I'm publicly posting about trying to figure out if I still have a doctor... not a peep.

Affordable housing is nice, but have you considered that everything I have to look at that is not myself, my house, or a tree is actively oppressing me?

People good at history: is it good when the leader of a country blames one particular group for the nation's economic troubles? Trying to think of any examples.

Vance is really just posting "don't you hate how Jews are always telling you shit like 'wahhh, stop being evil' like, what's up with that, right guys?"

Inova Pride Clinic has also scrubbed references to trans people and removed Gender-Affirming care from its list of service. Will have some questions at my upcoming appointment... this is not good.

It's ironic given my upbringing that it's far more likely to be Republicans who take my guns away and imprison me for saying I have no king but Jesus

This is backwards. I think the idea of "distractions" is mostly people arguing themselves into thinking not objecting to a thing is wise and smart and not justifying to themselves not objecting to it. But either way: This is the whole fight. bsky.app/profile/dani...

I’m so sick of people saying this shit, especially elected officials. He’s the president. Declaring himself a king after issuing an order just the day before that says he’s the final authority on all laws isn’t a goddamn distraction.

If marginalized people's safety and the free press and our cultural institutions and the concept of democracy itself are all distractions then what the fuck is actually important?

I did it I refused to volunteer for a role and we just sat in awkward silence and the role is just not filled. There's like 10 people on this call and none of us volunteered and I'm only sort of feeling like this is my fault, so... yay?

Donald Trump is pressuring Prince Edward Island to punish Anne Shirley for breaking the slate over Gilbert Blythe's head - said she was being "very nasty" and that there is nothing wrong with calling red-headed girls "carrots"
