Repost if you support trans people and think we're neato

oh so now it's illegal to put on a little play with your friends

I thought hell would freeze over before I agreed with the pope. But in a world riven by cruelty, that day has finally come | Rebecca Shaw It’s a relief to see the pontiff decrying brutality, because it seems most current world leaders lack the necessary spine

Ok that’s better, anyway i had a little rant www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I had the same thought about the song name

"Thanks Dan Savage"?!? 😬

a screenshot of the "New Bestsellers" list from Substack, with Andrew Tate in the #1 position

Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

What do you recommend for soundtracks while watching silent? Sometimes whatever audio is attached to the film just seems so incongruous

Re-upping my Free Stuff Thread. Lots of free, RESTORED silent movies! Also read the replies, there's even more free stuff there.

The meme where two astronauts are on the moon with one pointing a pistol at the other's back as the first astronaut gazes off at the earth. The first astronaut is captioned "Wait the moon isn't haunted?" The second astronaut is captioned "It is now"

This is really all they have left. "We have a pointless and criminal war pushing gas prices through the roof and the global economy to the brink but at least the government isn't treating trans people like they're human beings" will be the entirety of the midterm message.

Your regular reminder that dehumanizing the people who are dehumanizing others isn’t how we’re gonna get to liberation.

We have to live into the world we want to create.

If anyone on here works at one of the 57 forest service research stations that are going to be closed and you want to tell me about your work there and why it's important, reach out: jmckenzie@thebulletin.org

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.

If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.

Everyone give this a share after.

Hind Rajab was trapped in a car for days with her dead family members while snipers shot hundreds of times into the car.

She was 6 years old.

The fact that the best accountability that we have even attempted is so narrow is an abject failure of our collective moral conscience.

The War That Still Haunts the United States Remembering another war America was unable to extricate themselves from.

"Reagan initially said that he would not be cowed by terrorism, but an attack of that magnitude and a death toll of that scale was enough to change his mind." www.liberalcurrents.com/the-war-that...

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video.

“It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?”

This lady’s response is🔥

"The IOC already tried mandatory sex testing. For decades, every female Olympic athlete was screened. In all those years, it never caught a single person deliberately misrepresenting their sex. What it did was destroy the careers & lives of women with intersex conditions they didn’t know they had."

I don't think people fully appreciate how apocalyptic things are for US science. I haven't had any new funding since 2024, but I'm still ok since typical grants are for three years. This means next year I will be completely out of funding and will have to fire everyone in the lab. It's not great.

My more nuanced take is FUCK J.K. Rowling.

Our trans brothers, sisters, and siblings need our love and support more than we need another Harry Potter. Read and adapt books by better humans. Especially trans ones.

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

the girl guides in the UK just kicked out all their trans members specifically bc they were threatened with a lawsuit from a rowling-funded group

Uncanny. The only way to tell them apart is that Patrick Bateman has killed fewer homeless people

Never fund DHS again. Abolish it completely.

If someone wants to moan about "but but we have to ____" yeah fine we can discuss a new department, but *this* department has to go.

regular reminder that people who live in republican governed states still deserve human fuckin rights

It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.

1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
