"I am not involved," Trump said in relation to Kilmar Garcia's case.
It would seem as soon as it finally sunk in that he could be impeached for violating the US Constitution's due process clause, he has suddenly decided he had nothing to do with it.
I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.
It’s disgusting and dangerous.
If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.
Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.
To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.
🤣😂😭
This whole saga is kind of weird, and I'm rather confused how a publisher that crowdfunded its expenses has managed to go into administration.

DRUMS! DRUMS IN THE DEEP (Throat)!

I kept meaning to click the link you sent me - but that's a computer action, and bluesky is on my phone. And I kept getting distracted.
Thank you for finding me!
Fuck civility. It served nobody at Gettysburg.
A two-panel meme. The top half shows a scene from the movie The Mummy where soldiers are running away from the main characters. It is captioned "In a world full of 'allies'" The lower half shows three of the main male characters, two standing with rifles and one with a lit torch, looking ready for a fight. It is captioned "Be an accomplice."
Current Mood:

(11) General Interference with Organizations and Production (a) Organizations and Conferences (1) Insist on doing everything through "channels." Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite deci-sions. (2) Make "speeches." Talk as frequently as possible and at great length. Illustrate your "points" by long anecdotes and accounts of personal
Simple Sabotage Field Manual experiences. Never hesitate to make a few appropriate "patriotic" comments. (3) When possible, refer all matters to committees, for "further study and consideration." Attempt to make the committees as large as possible— never less than five. (4) Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible. (5) Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolu-tions. (6) Refer back to matters decided upon at the last meeting and attempt to re-open the question of the advisability of that decision. (7) Advocate "caution." Be "reason-able" and urge your fellow-conferees to be "reasonable" and avoid haste which might result in embarrassments or difficulties later on. (8) Be worried about the propriety of any decision-raise the question of
whether such action as is contemplated lies within the jurisdiction of the group or whether it might conflict with the policy of some higher eche-lon. (b) Managers and Supervisors (1) Demand written orders. (2) "Misunderstand" orders. Ask endless questions or engage in long correspondence about such orders. Quibble over them when you can. (3) Do everything possible to delay the delivery of orders. Even though parts of an order may be ready beforehand, don't deliver it until it is completely ready. (4) Don't order new working materials until your current stocks have been virtually exhausted, so that the slightest delay in filling your order will mean a shutdown. (5) Order high-quality materials which are hard to get. If you don't get

I love that one method of simple sabotage is being Colin Robinson
I said I think I remember that film...
Even in the incredibly unlikely case that trans rights in the US stop getting worse, judges grow a spine, whatever miracle you want to imagine—
You should still go out of your way to support trans folks because every fucking thing is harder for them. Work. Family. Housing. Walking down the street.
Trumps a joke. Trudeau: SO I OFFERED HIM WHAT WE'VE ALREADY BEEN DOING AND HE DROPPED THE TARIFFS!! Sheinbaum: OMG...SAME!
Raise your hand if you agree that tRump is a joke. ✋
(albeit a very bad joke)
And if another trans author who might be struggling happens to be reading this: remember that your story matters, there are readers out there who want to read your trans book despite what some people in this industry might think, don't lose hope.❤️

If there’s one thing I want trans writers to hear is never compromise.
Don’t give those fuckers a single inch.
Your vision, your ideas, are scared. Preserve them in all their glorious strangeness.
