To everyone in the trans+ community: your existence is not something to be debated. These words come from cis women who simply want you to know that your lives matter, and that you deserve joy, safety, dignity and belonging. Love is a doing word. All our love, NION women 💜
I am so sorry that life is so tough right now.
Sadly it seems that the world has become filled with hate and division. People who have never had the wonderful opportunity to meet you or any of your trans siblings are only hearing from the noisy, hateful ones.
I want you to hear from some of the other people on this planet who don't use social media to shout and spread hate.
#WithTheTDear beautiful you...please know that in this crazy world there are folk who cheer you, love you and embrace you.
Hold tight to who you are, and know that you are beautiful, are worthy, and are seen and heard. May the winds of time bring quietitide to your world and fan the wings of peace so that you can keep being you... beautiful! Xx
#WithTheTThank you for enriching our world and teaching us that there are many ways to be fully human. I'm sorry you have to endure the misunderstanding & mistreatment of those who can only imagine life in narrow lines of conformity. I remember, not so long ago, those of us who knew we were lesbians were afraid to say it, watching in silence and fear as we were punished for our difference.
I promise you, these times will pass. The LGB community survived - we are here and proud.
For the T community suffering right now - you already belong with us, and I know that broader acceptance will follow. Until then, please know that you have our love, acceptance and support.
- MD
#WithTheTI want you to know that I support you unequivocally and you must believe me when I say that there are many many people that share this view. Put simply - YOU matter, YOU are loved and YOU are supported.
Please, if you can, turn down the volume on those negative voices and amplify those who want you to hear messages of love and support. YOU are enough. YOU are valid.
YOU matter!
Best wishes,
Jacqui

No doubt this has occurred to other bystanders as well, but it would seem that a handful of billionaires dropping $150 million into a single state's election in an attempt to defeat a wealth-tax initiative just about makes the entire case for a wealth-tax initiative.

Hinging your opposition to ICE shooting people in front of their kids on how "ham-fisted" they are in doing so rather than acknowledging they shouldn't have been there in the first place looking to punish someone over and above what our criminal legal system already does is a bad argument imo.

There's no reason, no excuse, no logic, nothing that justifies a filmmaker using generative A.I. It's just bad. decider.com/2026/10/09/a...
DECIDER

LOG IN

Directed and produced by DuVernay via her
ARRAY production company, 74th is a companion
piece to 73th, DuVernay's Oscar-nominated
documentary about the prison industrial complex,
through the lens of the Thirteenth Amendment to
the United States Constitution. Similarly, 74th
examines the Fourteenth Amendment--which
addresses rights related to citizenship, voting,
insurrection. and more-and the Reconstruction
era following the Civil War, connecting it to the
current administration's attacks on those rights

There's an extended portion of the film that--
while explaining the rise of Black Americans in
politics and civil life following the end of slavery-
features black-and-white, archival photos that
have been "brought to life." The subjects of the
once-still photos blink, laugh, and fidqet, iust as
they might on film. Anyone with a Facebook feed
will recognize the eerie, uncanny vibe that
indicates the use of generative Al.

An element of publicly agitating against intimate violence that’s hard and painful to manage is that no matter how carefully you communicate your story or feminist perspective, you’re doing so in a media environment that relates to intimate violence exclusively on its value as entertainment content.
