25 years is a long time. It’s hard for me to wrap my brain around that number, given how immediate it can feel when we let our brains take us back there. One image that got seared into mine from those first minutes:

AIDS Walk New York 2025 is coming up, and my team The Salty Bitches and I will be walking, again and always. gmhc.aidswalkny.org/fundraiser/6... If among all the other crises, you can find the time, heart, and some dollars to help us out, I’d be forever grateful.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

The entire implicit promise of the campaign was to put uppity libs, feminists, Black people, brown people, and queer people back in their place, and they’re delivering on that promise.

RIP Jules Pfeiffer. I have an awful, cringe-y, embarrassing story about meeting him when I was 12 years old, that I hoped one day to tell him. (In my adult life, we have some people in common.) I’m sad that I never got that chance.

In this coming age of fascism, it's going to be just as important to discover safe people as it is to discover unsafe people. Three simple principles I think may work. 1) When someone hurts you, tell them. See how they react. They'll tell you who they are. www.the-reframe.com/rules-of-eng...

I will never stop being angry about this. What the Republican ticket has done to these people is beyond cruel, and what makes it so much worse is they knew they were lying when they lit the torches and handed out the pitchforks. And they’re still doing it. It’s evil. #Springfield

Many Haitians Prospered in Springfield, Ohio. Then Came the Hate.

A young family came to love the city where they rebuilt their lives and bought a home. Since a false rumor spread, they have scrapped outings, even to the park.
