I believe that when I go to a medical appointment, I should expect, at minimum, clean air. I’m extra that way.

“It feels like I’m on an island by myself, on a different planet, because no one seems to understand.” Emily developed #LongCovid aged 9. Now 14, she lives with constant pain and struggles to fit in at school because she uses a walking stick. Clip from Channel 5 News.

Shoutout to the Seattle airport for having restrooms for all: men, women, all genders, families, and pets. But what is really amazing is that they had a restroom for those with disabilities and medical needs and companions that had a large table for changes. What a great thing to have. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
A restroom for pets at the Seattle airport. A restroom with an adult adjustable airport that can be used by those who need it and their companions. What an awesome thing to offer.

someone on Twitter once posted a breakdown showing how many gay men died of AIDS in various districts of Florida, overlaid with how many votes Gore lost those districts by in 2000, and I've genuinely never been okay since. there literally would have been no George W. if those men were still with us

Instagram stories
Isa Briones

„Hey hey hey! Once again Broadway is not a circus, do not yell whatever you want at the performers. Yelling „when are you going to finish your charts“ before I sing Who‘s Sorry Now is so f*cking disrespectful to the performers onstage and your fellow audience members. Yall are pissin me off. Love and light and please remember you are occupying shared space and watching art.“

As a rule, there is a reason why Black Twitter did not migrate over to Bluesky en masse. The reasons are not just cultural. They are also political. We are the bedrock of any politics left of center in this nation, and there is so so so much quiet resentment about that.

a light brown pit bull wearing a maroon shirt sits with her ears pinned back and looks up in our direction. a hand is holding a chewed up certificate in the foreground. the signed certificate is for completion of basic obedience, and it's filled out to Maya la Pitbull. in her obedience class she was taught not to eat homework, but no one said anything about diplomas.

The thing about there needing to be a path of redemption for people who have been “canceled” is: there already is a path to redemption and it’s called “redeeming yourself.” The path is open! No one is blocking that! You just have to do it!
