i will never not be militant about trans rights cis people: demand nothing less than full, unequivocal rights for trans people and do not accept from anyone the idea that it is naive to demand it we deserve what you have

I like to point out that the segregationist KKK wives in the 1950s were being truthful when they said they would be uncomfortable sharing a restroom with a Black woman. The solution to this is that "uncomfortable" does not justify discrimination against other people.

Once again: Dude-hearsay is NOT EVIDENCE. They can make up any bull they want and attribute it to any girlfriend from Canada we don’t know. It is creepy to be interested in other people’s pants parts in a restroom no matter what gender, and the person being creeped on IS THE VICTIM.

Went ahead and confirmed with an onlyfans link. Looks like Bluesky decided sex work isn't something they want seen now that they have a user base. SW and furries were a lot of the early user base because they weren't censored. Now they aren't appropriate for bsky's ai bro culture goals.

Hey friends - there is a whole lot of nonsense going on in Toronto with the province removing bike lanes against the will of the city and a massive police presence at the construction site and thus far four arrests. Support protesters by donating if you can and sharing this post.

Interesting hearing this week what 200-250 million can pay for -- one uptown theater renovation, 1 L stop at State and Lake, an entire new Amtrak route from Milwaukee to Madison, or CPDs liability this year so far in misconduct suits.

Today is a good day to pause, close your computer, open it back up, and tell people who make a positive difference to you that they are doing good jobs.

Made these today! Took me forever to find red cabbage sauerkraut, but quest has been completed, and honestly - not bad! Sriracha is much better than ketchup (don't need the extra sugar). When I cook the next batch, I'm chopping the peaches.

“If you don’t like public executions just don’t watch it” says the crowd trying to ban drag shows and books

This year’s #BannedBooksWeek coincides with ALA’s official 150th anniversary. To mark the occasion, ALA has released a list of the 150 most challenged books documented from 1990, when ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom began tracking book challenges, through 2025. ala150.org/150books

It's Banned Books Week. My fellow librarians, listen carefully: your book displays should be almost exclusively writers who are alive. Yes, I know classic literature is also being banned, but most of those authors are dead. They aren't suffering financially from bans and challenges.

Had a LOT of fun designing these Ivy and Harley costumes for Poison Ivy in Briarwood (coming out this November of DC Go!) #art 🌹✨

Get rid of that hero fantasy and eradicate the causes.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

also thinking a lot about how #MeToo apparently went too far, when it’s quite obvious now that it didn’t go far enough. it didn’t really go anywhere. there were no lasting consequences of that cultural moment beyond people making jokes about it.

Everywhere I look lately a cis-Male comic creator is announcing a female-led project whilst my timelines are flooded with accounts of SA, both adult & minor, and I’ve never been more aware of living in a Patriarchal society.

First week of e-bike: 71 miles replaced. Way less than some people but I haven't found a safe route to work yet. Got some bike shop help so should be able to install the rear cargo holder now.

Blow it up, BlueSky. $9.25 pays for months of books for a kid.

Don’t give enough of a fuck about trans people or Jewish people to quit substack over monetizing transphobes and Nazis? Is this cool with you, too?

Rebecca Solnit@rebeccasolnit.bsky.social · last mo.

What gets you booted from Substack? Andrew Tate still seems to have a newsletter there while charged with: 10 counts of rape, 3 of trafficking for sexual exploitation, 3 of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, & making/distributing indecent images of a child. possessing extreme pornography.

Positive: 12 miles of car replaced with bike! Negative: Can't put on any of the attachments. 5/8 bolts needed taken off were stripped on delivery (you can see the scalloped markings where they torqued too hard into crappy bolts). We'll see if their (lectric) customer service is worth anything.

Yesterday, put together our new e-bike and was pretty discouraged (one of the bolts was stripped and couldn't install the cargo/cage on the back). We could put the pads in without though, and today, replaced 7 miles of car errands with biking! And kiddo loves it, and was showing it off to friends.

OMFG WOMEN: IT'S OK TO AGE AND GAIN WEIGHT COMPLIANCE WITH FASCISM WON'T LET YOU LIVE LONGER OR BE HAPPIER FUCK ALL THE SYSTEMS THAT WANT YOU TO HARM YOURSELF FOR THEIR APPROVAL (this psa brought to you by *the emmys*)

i am incredibly excited to share our research about how paying people’s rent through mutual aid made an impact on minnesota this year we accidentally collected more data than anyone ever has for an effort like this, and can very seriously say we prevented an eviction bubble that everyone expected

It's World Suicide Prevention Day. I've been there. If you need help, PLEASE reach out and seek help. There's no weakness in that. I'm glad I did. We're grateful you're here. You ain't a burden, you ain't alone. You're valued and loved. It gets better, one day at a time. You got this. You matter.

Don't forget that you may know people going through it & burying their struggles deep. There's so much stigma surrounding mental health issues. Breaking down that wall of stigma is EVERYTHING. Start a conversation. Show folks they matter. Listen to them. You could make a life-changing difference.
