Finally seeing a geneticist tomorrow after waiting a year for the appointment and my whole life for a diagnosis. Kind of exciting! 🥲

“In trying to protect ourselves as individuals, we were giving the homophobes exactly what they wanted: for us to disappear…” Great read.

I keep seeing this. Guys, their literal job is to figure out what to do. They are not helpless even if they are not the majority. I really hope we can stop treating some of the most powerful people in the world as helpless and without sentience.

In addition to everything else that needs to be dealt with, are the Democrats going to do anything about the planes crashing or are we just gonna ride this additional crisis to the end of the line?

Americans don’t agree on much, but nine in 10 endorse childhood vaccines, Caitlin Rivers writes. Emphasizing the popularity of the shots is not just about correcting the record — it’s key to protecting them.

This has been 4 years in the making at least. Nobody should be surprised this is among the first actions taken in this new administration. Nobody better think book bans are a badge of honor anymore. Nobody better say "book bans sell books." We have been warning you. This was a long time coming.

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990. One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS. #LGBTplusHistoryMonth

Don’t let them tell you boycotting companies that help Trump and DOGE doesn’t work: we took Tesla stock down from $480 to $355 when people stopped buying his cars. Boycott any companies affiliated with this cruel oligarchical regime!

Two calls to action: 1) Contact your reps and urge them to press Dem leadership on forming a Shadow Cabinet 2) Email the @5calls.org team at "hello AT 5calls DOT org and ask them to make this part of their topics. That will get this message out to people who aren't on Bluesky.

This isn't due to anything specific, but I do want to say; If you are telling artists or creatives to make weirder and more unmarketable art, it is in fact your obligation and duty at that point to promote/pass around/support those creatives when they do make that weirder art. Otherwise we can't!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

It’s important to pay attention to them trying to take over art and artists. It means they are powerful tools for influence. Use em to fuck this guy up.

I get the instinct to say "it's too late" in response to calls to action (call your reps about thing x, show up to protest thing y). I do. But here's the thing. These are the last tools we have to preserve democracy, short of some very messy options that I refuse to romanticize. Too early to quit.

I have to wait a week longer than usual for my next botox treatment (on V-day), and between that and the weather, I am barely alive. And work has been too busy for me to take a proper sick day. Just have to get through tomorrow, Monday, and Tuesday, and then I’ll have almost a week off. 😓

Before folks start comparing this to European autocracies, pause and ask why so many folks - Black and white - didn’t know about the Tulsa Race Massacre. Or the Wilmington Coup. Or the Colfax Massacre. Or the Elaine, Arkansas massacre. Erasure has been a key tactic of white supremacy. Right here.

If you haven't seen this movie yet, do it. A groundbreaking, no-nonsense depiction of the hardships that migrants go through and a savaging of the American Dream, told by Latinos for Latinos.

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they literally whispered, they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.
