This cannot be forgotten amidst our enthusiasm. These anti trans measures cannot wait to be overturned next election. State leadership and courts must challenge, defang, and nullify these fascistic new rules immediately.

voters across the country voted for several ballot measures that amount to "torture trans children", absolute shame on the democratic party leadership for abandoning our community and allowing this

I’ve been excited for this film since it was announced years ago, but I was also a bit nervous since sometimes LAIKA’s stories don’t match the level of craft. I can happily say that both the story and craft surpassed my already high expectations. GO SEE THIS MASTERPIECE.

Thrilled to rave about one of this year’s best films on NPR’s Pop Culture Happy Hour www.npr.org/2026/10/27/n...

AI is the Human Centipede of culture

NEW: The Grand Illusion Cinema lives! The single-screen movie house that'd been in Seattle’s University District for more than 50 years before closing in January 2025 is coming home. It will be now taking over at the Varsity Theatre 📽️ My story @seattletimes.com: www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...

Every now and then I see myself referred to as an "AI Denier" and I want to be clear I acknowledge "AI" exists, it's just I think it's a massive energy drain, created from theft, implemented poorly for inappropriate tasks by loathsome tech executives who get hard at the idea of the rest of us dying

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

@jamieloftus.bsky.social, woman that you are. I admit I doubted how interested I would be in a book about hot dogs, but goddamn. Raw Dog is fantastic. Your narration of the audiobook makes it even better. I am now on the hunt for the most passable vegan dogs, so far Field Roast is the best.

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched TSADACM - Amazing, showstopping, flawless, innovative, best of 2026 Austin Powers - Nostalgic and iconic but oof there are some jokes that DO NOT hold up Bouchra - Gorgeous and avant garde. Lesbian furries. Au Hasard Balthazar - A classic for a reason

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! Time to post your #LastFourWatched 👠

Jane Schoenbrun hits it out of the park once again with Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. I expected a love letter to campy slashers, and I got that. I didn’t expect a meditation on the queer experience of dissociating during sex and learning how to embrace your body and pleasure. Perfect film.

In 2025, we planted the seeds. In 2026, we watered our tender shoots. Now our wee buds are bloomin’ wild and they WON’T be contained! Join us for the Bloomin' Edition of Sea Slug Animation Festival on Feb. 26-28, 2027! Stay soft. Grow wild!

Kids need/deserve traumatic films. Films that show death or lasting consequences that aren't resolved almost instantly. Fear, anger, grief and frustration should be part of kids movies. Kids arent stupid, they feel big emotions just like adults, they deserve to see those experiences reflected back.

unless you’re cis, then picrel picnicmagazine.itch.io/picnic-mag-s...

The sentences handed down today in Texas are a threat to the possibility of a democratic society. The prosecution is rife with constitutional violations, but 30 years in prison (more than anyone for January 6) for moving some magazines? 50 years for those not involved in even planning the protest?

get in girl, we're pointing and laughing at at expensive cars as we cross the street in front of them

Do cis white dudes need to be patted on the head and told what good special boys they are all the time?

I often forget, as I live in a transgender hub, that most cis people live their entire lives without encountering a trans person. What an unfortunate way of being.

"Just because you're not using A.I. doesn't mean it's not being used by a lot of other people, and that's something that you have to reckon with" COUNTERPOINT: no, no I don't

"Why don't Americans..." they do. There's brave acts happening out of sight everyday. Why don't YOU support them when they get arrested or provide material cover for them?

So many cis people, only some of them professional transphobes, are so convinced that their narrow, unscientific and unethical views on gender, sex, and trans people are so foundational to reality itself that they're willing to raze all of society to ashes instead of admitting they were wrong.

Imagine if instead of spending $1 billion a day on forever wars, we actually invested in one of America's oldest and most popular public services. https://www.npr.org/2026/03/17/nx-s1-5750419/usps-running-out-of-money-postal-service-david-steiner

The Postal Service may be out of cash in 2027 without Congress' help, postmaster says

The U.S. Postal Service's leader says it is set to run out of money in less than a year and may have to stop deliveries

Major props to all the reps throwing down for economic justice. Makes me proud to be a Washingtonian. I’ll be even prouder when we tax the rich. ✊

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.

disturbingly plausible

Well at least if the US causes WWIII, they won’t draft my transgender ass ✌️

this is all it’s really about for them. Not domestic policy, not “economic anxiety”, just an endless desire to punish stand-ins for the Mommy who forced them take a bath, even if it tanks their own quality of life.

In this clip from a longer interview, she says while she was in detention, agents called Renee Good a “lesbian b*tch.” This video belongs to @statuscoupnews.bsky.social and I’ll take it down if they want me to. 2/2
