An illustration…Surreal monochrome with bands and textures resembling flowing fabric. Stars pepper the background.
A false color image of the actual Orion nebula, where you can see many of the features from the illustration, but without the foldy fabric bands.
Absolutely obsessed with this late 19th century illustration of the Orion Nebula by Otto Boeddicker.
"A screenshot of an NBC News article headline. The headline reads: 'Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail.' Below the headline, a subtext states: 'The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years.' The NBC News logo is visible at the top, along with a navigation bar that includes a 'WATCH' button and a user profile icon."
I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.
This is a campaign of eradication.

Fuck Gavin Newsom. I’m so sick of people jettisoning trans people from their platforms to court bigots to their side. #transequalitynow #transrightsarehumanrights #transwomenarewomen
The amount Musk and Trump are boasting about regarding federally funded research aimed at studying health outcomes in transgender people (the $8 million)? Just out of the research grant budget for the U.S., it would be the equivalent of if you had a $10,000 budget and spent 86 cents on something.
I just spoke to a rep from Bernie Moreno’s office who told me, “Medicaid is not getting cut, anyone who needs Medicaid will get it” but when I asked where the $880 billion tax cut was coming from he just repeated the quote to me like a parrot over and over again Call your senators Demand a town hall
I mean, are we just numb to the insanity ? The president of the United States yesterday called for arresting American students protesting at campuses (they pay to attend) 😂
What is Congress doing to protect trans and non-binary people and support them during this time?

Watched Sugarcane tonight. The atrocities committed against indigenous children by the Catholic Church is entirely revolting, and the lack of accountability and justice too. Required watching. The struggle is intersectional, no one is free until we are all free from white supremacy.

I love these characters and the world and their stories, the pacing is just a bit slow for my taste.

Me too! I am so eager to see what happens next!
This book is so good!
We are here and we’re not going anywhere. Our queer forbearers were beat and arrested and harassed and murdered by cops and citizens alike, we won’t go back.

This book is so good!
That is a hazard of the practice unfortunately
This is the beauty of audiobooks, I can close my eyes and rest while listening to my books!
I think y’all were in the same seats that me and Verdi were! What did you think?
