hey I am posting this because I didn't know it, and so others might not either: but the BBB has NOT PASSED YET-- it's passed the senate & now it must pass the house. It's time to call reps RIGHT NOW. Johnson is going to push the vote ASAP before backlash can form so the calls need to start NOW.

The path is very clear: Republicans are creating a system to allow anybody—you, me, whoever—to have their citizenship revoked, sent to a prison camp in the Everglades, then exported to a labor camp in a third-world country. That entire pipeline could be in place in 24 hours.

the stories that come out of the ICE camps are going to look like the stories that come out of every camp system; rampant corruption, epidemic disease, physical and sexual abuse on a vast scale, a death rate far higher than normal, and medical abuses.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

I’m afraid that when I say “my butch,” people, especially straight people, are hearing “my daddy.” That’s fine for many. But when I say “my butch”, what I mean is:
a drawing of my butch, peaceful and happily sleeping in a critter keeper while I hold aloft while making ominous eye contact with the viewer.

HR 9495 will go to a vote this week, likely Tuesday or Wednesday. Again. It's called a "nonprofit killer," a "threat to free speech," and will give Trump unprecedented power. Tell your congresspeople to vote "no" on this bill. See how your reps voted the first time Find your rep's info here.

the Democratic Party spends each election cycle courting the right, and every time they lose they create a fictional leftist version of the Democratic Party and claim that’s the version that just lost.

For years I’ve watched feminists try and raise awareness about the unrestricted mass influence of incel culture, Andrew Tate, and reactionary misogynistic rhetoric. And now some Dems are saying the problem is identifying “toxic masculinity” too much. I actually think it’s the opposite!
