Sanders: Look at what Mamdani is doing and contrast that with Trump. Trump cuts funding for child care. Mamdani thinks we should have free, universal child care. Who do you think is on the side of the American people on these issues?

Diversity is beautiful. It is not just “of” it is also “in.” Diversity of and in all species. …of and in gender. …in every aspect of development. etc. etc. etc. 1/3

From someone who was born with multiple intersex differences, I ask that you read all of this thread. Biologist, Rebecca R. Helm laid the info out in a way that highlights how difficult it can be, to determine sex from chromosomes. Be sure to expand the thread when you get to that point.

Friendly neighborhood biologist here. I see a lot of people are talking about biological sexes right now. Lots of folks make biological sex seem really simple. Well, since it’s so simple, let’s find the biological roots, shall we? Let’s talk about sex...[a thread] (Reposted from the other site)

As a follower of Jesus, and an exvangelical, I still find it hard to fathom that those who claim to follow such a man would support a government and a president that consistently and continuously promotes hatred of others. This is not the Christ I know. Ask yourself, who’s teaching do you follow?

All over America, MAGA Republicans will stream into churches this Sunday. They will do so joyously. They will do so confidently. They will do so believing they are righteous... ing what it means to love people as God does. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-maga-ch...

A Black trans teen was shot and killed in Florida. Almost no one reported it. Police misgendered Jayla McGee, local media overlooked her homicide, and her community was left to make sure she was not erased. www.advocate.com/new... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

The International Olympic Committee abandoned universal chromosome screening in 1999 following sustained criticism from researchers, clinicians and athletes. Now, more than 25 years later, broad genetic screening is returning to elite women's sport. www.thefirstserve.com.au/post/the-ove...

I have been called an alarmist and worse by well meaning people who want to think it will just all be ok. The truth is it doesn't always end up ok and we can't pretend it will. Donald Trump is targeting Black voters and women to rig this election. We need to stand up, call it out and take action.

So we're all agreed that donald j trump, who pled the 5th over 400 times in his deposition in 2022 regarding the NY fraud case against the trump organization, is a fucking lying pos.

I’m angry with everyone who isn’t angry. I’m having a hard time with the unbothered people, the “everything is gonna be fine” people, the people who are acting as though they are above those of us who are blowing gaskets, breaking down, and freaking out. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/im-furious...

I'm Furious With People Who Aren't Furious Right Now.

I’m just gonna come right out and say it: I’ve had it with people right now.

Outgoing Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are reportedly undecided about Todd Blanche's nomination for AG. A single GOP "No" vote in committee this Thursday could tank Blanche's nomination entirely. Call and tell them to reject Blanche: (202) 224-3121

This is for all the #poets and #writers of Bluesky. I did a search for an image, to accompany my latest poem, and these were the actual results. Enhanced by me, for humor’s sake. …and, yes, I purchased every one of those images, just so I could share this with you. See, you’re special. 😊

An image of an image search, on a stock photo website. Most images are of books and nature. The main caption says, “How people see poetry.” A second caption reads, “How people see poets,” and is accompanied by an arrow pounding to a photo of a person lying on the ground. Their dirty feet and jeans are all that is visible of the person. a lighter, and a burgundy towel lie on the ground beside and under them.
