One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts." Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them. This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall. They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+. Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them. I think about it a lot in moments like this.

This is a great piece. "As deportations ramp up again, we have a choice: We can watch as our neighbors disappear or we can build on these proven strategies to protect the diverse communities we've built together."

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is well protected in a fabulous Cowrie shells neck piece. The National Museum of African American History and Culture notes that, in America, the shell is thought to be a totem used to resist enslavement. #Addtoblacksky #Blacksky #Inaugurationday2025

Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah @regenceutah.bsky.social is still denying coverage for a life-saving oncologist-prescribed FDA-approved cancer drug, Perjeta, for my wife Raven's breast cancer treatment. And I will post about it every single day until it is covered. Every. Single. Day.

CNN is hopelessly broken. 1. This "expansion" would require military invasions of several allies in violation of international law. 2. It would violate several treaties. 3. The Louisiana Purchase was the sale of land by a colonial power (France). These are sovereign nations.

Every book lover dreams of a secret library—not just for the aesthetic, but for the joy of being left alone. No interruptions, no small talk. Just peace, quiet, and the thrill of getting lost in another world!

when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment even after the schools ended any racial preferences then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"

Past week is cursed. Grandfather had a heart attack; my father was rear-ended so hard car is totaled; and today I slipped off a stair and sprained my toe and hurt my knee. And that's on top of all the other stuff nationally and globally. I don't believe in the retrograde stuff, but...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok? Signed, a librarian.

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Writers: yes, you are still a "real" writer if you - have never published anything - have no readers - didn't write anything this month - didn't write anything this year - can't articulate words anymore - can only float and mournfully wail - were murdered ten years ago on this very spot

Getting a REALLY good idea for the plot AFTER finishing your outline is great except if you've already started writing several chapters that are all now barely recyclable with the new idea. Goddammit. #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writer

Thinking back to, just after the election, when a friend told me he put a 'Housing is a Human Right' bumper sticker on his Tesla so people would stop assuming he was the enemy and flipping him off.
