we spend too much time on β€œthe trans girls weren’t even good at the sport” because i don’t think it would be good to ban trans people from sports even if trans women started dominating sports. i think they should be allowed to see how good they can be at sports and not worry about the rest!

the former host of celebrity apprentice and the former host of fox & friends weekend are launching bombs and destabilizing the world for generations all because voters decided their biggest issue was a trans kid playing jv tennis with their friends 4 states over

How many times do we have to say this but: dead people do not come back. Dead children do not come back. Death is permanent.

What happens in 3 months means fuck all to the deaths happening RIGHT NOW

A lot of Democrats view the LGBTQ+ community in general, and the trans community in particular, as an arm of the party.

That is likely because many of our orgs have acted as if they're an arm of the party.

But we're not an arm of the Democratic party, and no one should act like we are.

Dan Simmons, noted racist, has died. He wrote Hyperion, which contained a good short story and then a lot of other words, which many of us read anyway because it was the Nineties and Waldenbooks had a limited science fiction section.

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

a digital collage with a pink, purple, green, yellow, and teal gradient overlaid on all the images. the images include a horse carrying a bucket, a cluster of mushrooms, a grub, a birds talon, a cicada, five spiders, two flower buds, a hand with an eye over the back of it, and a microscope slide of atoms. there is white text that reads "get weirder or die miserable." the background is black and there is a slightly grainy texture

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

β€œHey boss, are you sure Flamigo is more popular than Charizard, and people aren’t just misspelling β€˜Flamingo’ on Google?”

β€œDon’t be ridiculous. Of course Flamigo is more popular than Charizard, Mewtwo, Eevee, and Snorlax. Send the email.”
