I think people who think that way should probably be honest with themselves that delivering "hard truths" to people who didn't vote Democrat in 2024 is more about making themselves feel better, not about trying to get those people to vote Democrat in 2028.

I assure you that telling someone "The truth hurts sometimes, but it's time to pull up the big boy and girl pants and start adulting" will make them want to do the polar opposite of whatever it is you're asking them to do. It's a truly insane strategy.
"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism—because pursuing an identity based on dominating others is self-isolating."

Man I thought Republicans would turn the racism up to 11, not 111. This is what it would sound like if Hitler spoke English.
I’m interested in creating a writing crit group for trans femmes that will meet regularly online. Comics and prose, generally. Genre fiction, mostly. It will be a small group, 4-6 people or so. This is a group for serious trans lady-types who have professional writing goals. DM me if interested!
I've always been respectful and admiring of nature, but I do think understanding and empathy with all living things is something that flourishes and deepens in middle age and maybe it never stops.
If you voted for Donald Trump in 2024, I will never forgive. If you used a large platform in 2024 to encourage people to vote for Donald Trump, you should be shunned for society. Our MAGA policy must be zero tolerance.
it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit
really love the first round mock draft we just did on the @footballabsurdity.bsky.social podcast 👀👀

Our latest paper is out today in @jamapediatrics.com - discussing:
(1) How structural and mental health disparities can lead to competitive *disadvantages* for trans youth in sports
(2) The negative impacts of exclusionary sports policies on mental health

1. This weekend, a federal judge permanently blocked funding threats to providers and hospitals that provide trans youth care.
The judge also blocked "any similar policy."
Hospitals have NO excuse and must return to providing care under many blue state laws.

This would be a perfect excuse for Mamdani to provide leadership and issue a demand to NYC hospitals that have withdrawn from gender care for youths.
mini koi pond sculpture with resin "water" and lots of moss and flowers there's a frog on a lily pad and some leaves on the water, two fish, and a robin on a big rock with the kanji for "peace" very crudely carved into it
I made this for my mom and it lights up from underneath with a little led and I'm so stinking pleased with it
I can't wait to show it to her in a few days
if I made these for sale would there be interest? here's another shot where you can see more detail
it's approx 5.5in in diameter and about 4in tall
Oooooof. That's certainly not what you want to see when you're in a distant third in your senate primary.
This is as good as everyone's saying it is. The anti-corruption message is a good one, imo

Fun in the sun - Part 4
Comic. I’m at my desk, leaning over to the doorway, saying “Hey! Foghorn! Foghorn Leghorn! Get in here!” Foghorn Leghorn is walking past the doorway, “Boy, I tell ya, I tell ya, not so loud, boy. What, I say, I say, what d’ya want?” Next panel, I’m gesturing to my computer. “How do I find that really good manga you recommended? It’s an anime now? I keep getting Halloween costumes.” Foghorn leans over my chair, “well, boy, I say, I say, you ain’t typin the entire title.” Last panel, I turn around- “you said ‘witch hat.’ Foghorn gets in my face- “open your ears, boy!! ‘Witch Hat Atelier, I tell ya! I tell ya ‘Atelier,’ I tell ya’”

This is bullshit. It’s buying into the right’s framing of liberalism. Very, very few people talk like he’s saying. It’s not a real issue.
Hi Kara! Always nice to get a wink and a hello from Supergirl. You and your cousin had a big day yesterday. Why don't you take the day off? Go do something super!
❤️💛🩵 Have a super day! 🩵💛❤️
Hey this is very cool actually!
Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded.
“This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.”

Wanna see a judge tell RFK, Jr. to go fuck himself?
Imagine you're about to rob a bank. You have guns and a plan and you're steeling your nerves. And then, as you're about to do it, a giant smiling alien approaches. It picks you up. "Gloo bork blag bleep!" the alien exclaims as it kisses your forehead.
This is what it is like to be a cat.
Drawing of Kamala Kahn (aka Ms Marvel!) going on an embiggening run. Hope she survives the X-perience! And I hope YOU have a great weekend. ❤️
