I hadn’t even thought about how weird that is??? But yeah now that you mention it…. Your way makes more sense
Ariel voted today and said there were twice as many machines for the nonexistent republican line while he waited in a huge line for the dem machines 💀💀💀 early voting on Friday was also the longest line I’ve ever been stuck in
As hard as we are fighting, book bans are having an impact on the books being written and published. To put this another way, a very small number of well-funded people who don't write books, don't teach books, don't work in libraries are trying to decide what books are available for everyone else
Call your reps about this. Every time a book ban has been overturned or shut down, it's because the vast majority of people who believe in the freedom to read spoke up.
Find your reps' info at reps.fyi.
Following the lies and hatred targeting trans folks during the State of the Union Address, numerous republican House representatives introduced a bill that would create A NATIONWIDE BOOK BAN.
Here's what it is and what to do: bookriot.com/hr7661-book-...
This is so beautiful. Keep fighting. No concentration camps
1. Mayor Mamdani promised to hold hospitals accountable that capitulate to Trump.
He promised funding to trans youth care in the city.
There are very real steps he can take right now to maintain care for trans youth after NYU Langone's capitulation.
It's time for Mamdani to uphold his promises.
The need is bottomless, unfathomable, and our leaders do nothing to help. Tens of thousands of families are one breath away from disaster.
Call your house rep and tell them to support HB 2540 which will increase the amount disabled people can save from $2k to $10k and remove the marriage penalty where you lose your only source of income if you get married regardless of how little they make. Switchboard: (202) 224-3121
Of course possibly irreparable harm has been done to students, instructors, children’s publishing, authors of kid lit, etc. But this court-driven decision is a first step away from the abyss of institutional homogeneity, racism, queermisia, ableism, etc.
ice, still here. still abducting and terrorizing people. if you see anyone saying otherwise, please correct them.
That's 18 yo college freshman Jesse Jackson on the left & the seven hs students he organized for a silent sit-in at a segregated library.
"Although Greenville was not the first library system to integrate in SC, it was the first to do so as a result of public demonstrations by the Black community."
Dilley must be shut down and everyone inside must be freed and provided immediate medical care. www.sacurrent.com/news/two-mon...
A lot of folks don't have money to spare, but many of you have skills & time! There are so many ways to do the work, and I KNOW some of you can help with this stuff!
Henry Cuellar should never hold elected office again. Anyway in the meantime, make your Senators scared of you.
Honestly even Republicans can be moved if they get enough calls. So make sure to do so. Especially make Democrats terrified of their voters if they don't vote no with a bullet on this one
"Here, finally, is a worthy use of the NIMBY impulse that is so easy to activate for worse reasons." Friends, you can use that. I highly recommend going full Karen for the right reasons.
DID YOU KNOW?
If you have Delta Sky Miles, you can donate them to help a kidnapped-and-released person fly home!
They are set free on the streets of El Paso or another Texas town with no phone, no money, nothing at all. Your miles can get them back to their loved ones!
Maria is one of hundreds of children, who — like Liam Ramos — have been held at a Texas detention facility where parents say children languish as they’re served contaminated food, receive little education and struggle to obtain basic medical care.
Here's our attempt at telling their stories. 2/
They're trying to tell us that they always get what they want. That there is nothing so hideous that they won't do it, even if it's kidnap a five year old child and then, when they lose, really try even harder to make him suffer more.
Fuck them.
Whatever you think of the Washington Post at this moment, here's a chance to support the dedicated, hard-working journalists who were just laid off. If you have the means, your donation is most welcome. If you don't, a kind thought and maybe spreading the word to others is support enough 💙
🎉🎉🎉 it’s so good! 😊
I just got off the phone with Elizabeth's dad...she and her mom were freed tonight! Updated story: sahanjournal.com/education/co...
"My daughter is only 6 years old. She should not know chains or handcuffs or the terror of her family being torn apart. She should never have been...locked in a detention facility for 2 months. She should be in school in the US, playing with her friends and receiving the medical care she needs."
A stack of paperback advance reader copies of Being Aro sit on a black stool with small painted cherries. On the cover, the title is written in big black letters against a green gradient background. Interwoven with the letters is a person with green skin, short black hair, white clothes and platform boots. They kneeling on the ground and are aiming a bow and arrow to the upper right. They are wearing the aromantic flag around their neck and it is trailing out behind them like a cape.
Ohohoho ARCS have landed!
BEING ARO, my next book co edited with Madeline Dyer, releases in May from Page Street! I’m so hyped to share this collection with y’all and celebrate aromantic stories!
one way to avoid having a measles outbreak at the child concentration camp would be to not have a child concentration camp
BIG UPDATE: The State Board of Education decided NOT to vote on this awful reading list until April, pending feedback from teachers and community members. This is a temporary, partial, but very real victory! They listened to us!
Dems managed to get a 2-week delay on the DHS bill, so CALL YOUR SENATORS AND YOUR REPRESENTATIVE EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT 14 DAYS. Tell them you want ICE, CBP and all the rest of it defunded and dismantled. Tell them you will be voting against anyone who doesn't do this. This is our chance.
An extraordinary document. Read it.
“Attached to this order is an appendix that identifies 96 court orders that ICE has violated in 74 cases. … ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”
