I want to start giving shout-outs to local game stores who are (re)stocking Coyote & Crow Games. Today it's @geekyteas.bsky.social! I got to visit their store a few years ago, and it's among my favorites. Great people, a great FLGS. And, they have KITTIES! Go support them!

What a shock that California and Gavin Newsom is still on the trans athletes bullshit. If a trans person wins, the cis person who was next will also get the medal. And as noted in the story, there is ONE trans person this applies to. ONE FUCKING PERSON!

I'm not trying to start a panic or fear monger but the moves California is making feel similar to what Florida did in 2020 just before going full blown transphobic hellscape in 2021. Keep an eye on it because if/when the shift comes it will be blindingly quick.

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

"Just show them your ID, if you're here legally it's not a problem." "Everyone is exagerrating. As long as you're a citizen, they won't bother you." *sigh*

On May 2, agents followed Leonardo Garcia Venegas back to his home because they didn’t believe his claims of citizenship or that the REAL ID he showed them was legitimate. It was familiar territory: He’d already been detained twice. 🔗 Read more: propub.li/3Ppaufa

Alien: And how did you run out of water? Earthling: Machines drank it. Alien: Machines. Earthling: We had to feed machines the water. Aliens: So the machines were holding your planet hostage for water. Earthling: No, we made the thirsty machines. They worked for us. Alien: End communication.

I do not understand how people are okay with this. His people are the ones that spent 5 years freaking out about a laptop and emails. This is a straight up grift. I mean, I do understand, but....

Donald Trump thinks the U.S. Treasury is his personal piggy bank. Let's be clear: the President is trying to steal $10 BILLION of taxpayer money - before a court rules. This is a massive, unprecedented scandal. Congress must stop him. I have a bill for that.

Anyway, get to ground. It's always my *advice* [when I offer any]. Get hyper local. Find your people and fight where you are. This is where you can make the most impact and a real difference. Do this as much as you can, take care of yourself, and take care of your people.

Them: "Hey, y'all, you're overreacting. There's no 'trans genocide' - that's absurd. The government would never." The government: "We're going after radically pro-trans groups." So, like, trans people? And the government is actively stating they will use every constitutional power to find them.

Today the US federal regime released a 16 page "counter terrorism strategy" that includes this. Trans pogroms begin in earnest soon. Please save trans lives in any way you can think of. Please.

"In addition to cartels and Islamist terror groups, our national CT activities will also prioritize the rapid identification and neutralization of violent secular political groups whose ideology is anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist. We will use all the tools constitutionally available to us to map them at home, identify their membership, map their ties to international organizations like Antifa, and use law enforcement tools to cripple them operationally before they can maim or kill the innocent. We will do the same with the state sponsors of such groups and those governments undertaking lethal plots on U.S. soil or against Americans anywhere."

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

Ida Bae Wells@nhannahjones.bsky.social · 3mo ago

We must understand the racist political rhetoric, the erasure and attacks on Black history, the reinstalling of Confederate names and monuments, all go hand-in-hand as the Court and Congress legitimize the taking of political rights and the end of multiracial democracy itself.

So, with the new passport stupidity we're doing the "Let's just take the blue states away!" Reminders: 1. If we're changing the US, let's just give it back to the people who were here first, eh? 2. Red states have blue people. More Black people live in red states than blue.
