The 988 suicide prevention hotline's Press 3 option — which provides specialized services to LGBTQ callers — has been restored more than a year after the Trump administration shut it down. Confirmed by HHS and the office of Senator Tammy Baldwin, who led on legislation that forced its restoration

Maintaining a strict separation between government and religion conflicts definitionally with Christian White Nationalism.

Hey so, if you’re not willing to be arrested, then you are not “protesting” the violent govt fascism that Project 2025 outlines. I have studied and briefed Project 2025. Please understand, #Project2025 fully anticipates way more opposition than this these quarterly “No Kings” gatherings I’m seeing.

Angelenos don’t take kindly to the government terrorizing our friends and neighbors. What will YOU do when fascism comes for your city or town? Will you stand up and fight for your fellow Americans? Will you put your bodies on the line? #ICE is hoping you won’t. #LosAngeles #NationalGuard

My fellow patriots! Join me, @Governor.CA.gov and the rest of California, in the fight against fascism. Ours is a nation worth fighting for. A unified, intentional coalition is necessary to defeat fascism. History confirms this. Join us! 🇺🇸

After Trump used taxpayer money to air one of his literal campaign ads, FCC Chair Brendan Carr shrugged off the scandal, saying the propaganda was just a “normal PSA.” It’s ridiculous to the point of being insulting. It’s as if these guys think Americans are idiots. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

FCC’s Carr brushes off concerns about Trump’s taxpayer-paid election ads
To see literal campaign propaganda as “normal PSAs” is obviously preposterous — except to Trump’s FCC chair.

So we’re clear, I’ve been hoarding so, sooo much tiny twin kitten content, since these two found their way into my life. I suspect I’ll start sharing more of it, now that things are horrible 😇✨

I’m a Black lawyer, true crime enthusiast and as such, an avid police/prison abolitionist. I absorb TONS of case law, watch even more “true crime,” and now maintain a list of words most cops can’t pronounce, for example: - corroborate - subsidiary - asphyxiate ..lemme know if you have additions..

No. And generous? Choose another word. These settlements are insulting attempts to repay higher ed professionals for something priceless—blatant violation of our First Amendment rights. Had the cases you’ve read about gone to trial instead of settling, the jury verdicts would’ve been much bigger.

Most handsome cat on Bluesky?? I’d say so.

Trump’s meeting with the nation’s A.I. leaders. I clock Zuck, Elon Musk and at least one other billionaire, all of whom play leading roles in the Epstein Files. I will *never* not call this out when applicable. The United States and much of the rest of the world are run by racist rapist pedophiles.

Charlie Kirk was not an actor, but he was certainly paid. Kirk meant every heinous, racist, violent word he uttered about Black people.

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.

Never intended to adopt two (2) cats—but once I met them, I couldn’t bring myself to separate these closely bonded littermates. Brutus and his sister Nero have been inseparable, lovingly tussling daily, ever since. Can’t even imagine one without the other! ✨
