Prices are rising nationwide and Trump’s gaslighting everyone about why. His tariffs and failed policies are driving costs up. He’s spent $200 billion more in his first 100 days than the same period last year, delivering less to Americans at a greater cost.

It's Trans History Week! Meet Dr. James Barry.

This week marked Donald Trump’s 100th day of his second term, and even as he tried to spin it as a triumphant first act, reality tells a different story. For Trump's latest plummeting poll numbers, legal losses, and more progressive wins, look no further.

A reminder for this Transgender Day of Visibility: Trans people have always existed, and we always will. No president, politician, or court can change that.

TheHill [Mar 18] -- Fed judge indefinitely blocks E/O barring trans people from military, staying order until Mar 21 so the administration can appeal. “The ban at bottom invokes derogatory language to target a vulnerable group in violation of the 5th Amendment,” [@rikiwilchins.bsky.social‬]

Canadian friends, when the war starts, how should I secretly signal that my home is Canada friendly — paint maple syrup above the front door maybe?

Thinking of other ways to be impactful but not go broke- i disabled chrome and maps and replaced them with Duckduck Go and MapQuest. Any other recommendations are welcome

Having to fight Elon Musk at DOGE before we’ve even battled Trump feels like having to defeat the forces of Saruman first at Helm’s Deep.

All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.

Donald Trump is really trying to insult our intelligence by blaming the collision between a commercial airline and a military helicopter on "DEI hires". This blatant yellow journalism isn't the sort-of thing that can be easily undone.

If you are a straight, cis person and you feel that fucking knot in your stomach about what the administration is doing right now to trans people and trans children, you have to at the very fucking least say out loud in front of your friends and peers in real life "this is fucked up."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Listen to me. You need to take a break. If you don't, this will all break you, and we cannot lose you. The fight will still be here when you get back. I know this is especially hard for some groups, but you must. There is no other option. You have to take a break. You have to experience joy.

It’s okay to step away for the day. It’s okay to take a breath and steady yourself. Keeping up-to-the-hour with the news right now can (will) create despair if you don’t, sometimes, step away.

Not nearly enough businesses / non profits etc are fighting back against this anti-DEI crap. If everyone would just take a stance we'd out number him. It's disheartening to see so many places roll over on command like this.

After being disowned by my entire family I guess it only makes sense to start fresh with a new social media platform too. Creating circles with only safe people. Feels right.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we must recommit ourselves to educating each other about the horrors of the Holocaust — and fight back against authoritarianism. There isn't "too much focus on past guilt." There's a blatant attempt to rewrite the atrocities of the past.
