I feel like less than 5 years ago I had to introduce Ray Bradbury works with a whole thing about “we can learn about the fears and anxieties of his time by how he set up his dystopias” and now my student’s first response to Fahrenheit 451 is just “yup, that’s the world.” 🙃🙃🙃

Thumbnail image from Adri's latest YouTube video. In the photo, they're smiling and holding up a stack of eight books in front of their chest, spines aligned vertically with the titles facing outward. From left to right, the books shown include' "Now I Surrender", "The Red Winter", "Hot Girls with Balls", "Make Room for Love", "The Body Builders", "Kill the Beast", "Riley Dare: Slightly Witchy Sleuth", and "Bat Eater". Two additional book covers have been edited into the thumbnail, one over each of Adri's shoulders, and those titles are "Seasons of Glass and Iron" and "Project Hail Mary". Adri is wearing a lightly purple sweatshirt, a silver chain necklace, a silver hoop earring in their left ear, a silver wire cuff on their right ear, and a silver barbell with a tiny heart-shaped stud in their right eyebrow. At the top of the thumbnail, the word "March" is written in bold, white text, and edited to appear behind Adri's head and shoulders. End description.

Anyone involved in STI awareness knows how "clean" is weaponized (especially queerfolk), so… no, won’t be okay with using the term as a virtue-signal for YA. Nuh-uh. No how. Do not pass go, do not throw entire groups of people under the bus in the name of pearl-clutching gatekeepers.

The President is threatening genocide and possible use of nuclear weapons against Iran.

It’s clear the President has continued to decline and is not fit to lead. The members of his Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment immediately.

I am here for messaging that the THREAT alone - regardless of if it's carried out or walked back - should end his presidency.

The die is already cast. You cannot wield the power that man has and say that kind of shit.

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

YOU: Hi my name is [name]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].

YOU: Today, President Trump said that “a whole civilization will die tonight” if Iran does not meet his deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. That rhetoric is extreme, dangerous, and disqualifying.  

FOR THOSE W/ DEM ELECTEDS: I’m asking [ELECTED OFFICIAL] to publicly condemn this rhetoric and use every available procedural tool to stop further escalation, including support for impeachment and urgent public pressure on congressional leadership.

FOR THOSE W/ GOP ELECTEDS: I’m asking [ELECTED OFFICIAL] to publicly condemn this rhetoric, press the administration and cabinet to treat this as disqualifying conduct. 

YOU: Calling this what it is matters. Even if removal is difficult, elected officials should treat rhetoric like this as unfit and dangerous.

YOU: [OPTIONAL COMMENTS]

I know this and you know this and we all know this but sometimes you gotta say the obvious thing out loud (so to speak) just so you don’t feel alone or crazy: our president is a deeply unwell and utterly vile man who shouldn’t be in charge of driving a golf cart much less the free world.

As the Comets return, Houston's girls and gays couldn't be happier "This resurrection is gonna be a beautiful experience for our city."

New - LGBTQ+ fans and women (especially women of color) have been the WNBA's biggest fans. So, in a city as diverse as Houston, I spoke to a few people ready to embrace the return of the Houston Comets:

a digital illustration in the style of a relief print depicting a black cat in a defensive pose holding a torn and tattered transgender pride flag in its mouth as it looks directly towards the viewer. the background is purple with some specks of blue and pink showing through, and behind the cat is a black midground resembling grass or flames. the top right corner features a box with a caption reading "T.D.O.V."

On this TDOV, please visit this link and tell the Mayor to make good on his fine words, fine Mt. Sinai and Langone for denying trans kids health care, and direct NYC Hospitals + Health to provide those kids care.

An illustrated image of a white tween with wavy blonde hair that falls past her shoulders. She's wearing a cream t-shirt with turquoise stripes and is standing in front of a row of bright blue school lockers. In her hands are pamphlets that read "Elsie's Puberty Zine" with smaller images floating around her including a bumblebee, green owl, LGBTQIA+ rainbow flag, and bunch of cherries. Above the girl's head are the words "32 Most-Anticipated Middle Grade Books: April-June 2026" in bold white and blue text.

From spooky mysteries to contemporary coming-of-age stories, there are so many awesome middle grade books being published in the next three months!

I don't even know what to say about how bad this is. People have been denied due process by not being able to attend court hearings for fear of being kidnapped; other people HAVE been kidnapped for showing up to do the exact thing we say we want.

It's been a month since NYU Langone ended care.

Letitia James deadline came and went, NYU still has not restarted care.

Mamdani refuses to answer questions from trans journos over the real steps he can take, like directing H+H to absorb patients or enforcing human rights law.

Important thread.
