Just got the notification that my new orchid is on the waaaaaaay! It’s already in spike so I’ll get to experience the full spectrum of blooming in the next couple weeks.

hateful people don't have complex reasons for doing the things they do that we need to sit down and have beer therapy over. They are either scapegoating their misfortunes selfish or uphold their sense of self by a very rudimentary concept of what I am is god and people who are different are garbage.

Fantastic protest organized by @genderlib.com to protest NYU Lagnone's deal with Trump to end gender-affirming care for trans youth. Big 🧵 of photos for ya!

Protestors march down the street holding signs/banners reading things like HONOR YOUR OATH / PROTECT TRANS KIDS, PROTECT THE DOLLS, and TRANS LIVES ARE NOT BARGAINING CHIPS

Hey, cis ppl in the NYC area: NYU Langone just made a devil’s deal with DOJ after patients & families fought AND WON in court. Trans youth are watching their “allies” abandon them. Liking & reposting is nice, but they need you making noise and they need it right the fuck now:

thank you The New York Post for what may be the funniest image of all time

a picture from the NY Post titled " today’s leftists are possessed by the spirit of France’s 18th-century guillotine-loving revolutionaries" (way too long) that shows Mamdani (the specter haunting Europe) smiling in the sky as a bunch of French people goof around

Pessimistic tip for writers trying to publish work that feels socially and politically relevant: make your story's real-world-adjacent dystopia about 20% worse so that it'll feel especially timely by the time it gets published a few years later.

there's been a surge in support for the death penalty again, but people forget that we're not against the death penalty because we think evil people don't deserve to die, we're against it because the government having the power to kill someone they deem guilty can be abused by whoever is in power

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

Seen some talk of unethical fiction, so here’s my take

Three panel comic titled Unethical Fiction:
1. Made with AI
2. Printed on human skin
3. The author uses their profits to fund a hate group.

everybody really needs to learn that all intellectualizing of transphobia is post facto transphobia is just an "ew, gross" feeling about people who don't fit into gender norms they come up with the rationalizations to explain a feeling they're already having about non-compliance with gender norms

Loved the New York Post article claiming "it's over" for Mamdani as if there isn't an entire cultural touchstone on powerful or leading men getting wet in their (regency) white shirts when overcome with emotion.

Zohran Mamdani in a grey suit, yellow tie, and white shirt wet in the pool, laughing and looking incredibly happy

Colin Firth from the BBC's 90s Pride and Prejudice, hair wet from the pond, shirt clinging to his chest

Jonathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton erupting from the water with the most diaphanous white shirt of the bunch
