"That I’ll recognize you in the coffee shop after all these years, that you’ll see my long scraggly mop and pierced nose as the bell chimes over the door knowing it’s me, and you’ll stand from the loveseat and open your arms..." 🔥 👀 from Lauren Kardos https://www.havehashad.com/mcqgx

Ohio's Dem nominee for governor, Amy Acton, made very transphobic comments and refuses to acknowledge/apologize for them.
Taking women's rights away is always the goal (trans women VERY much included). Destroying oppressed groups is always the goal. Gaining/hoarding power is always the goal.
1. After pushing anti-trans laws to ‘protect women’s sports’, Project 2025’s Heritage Foundation now wants women’s sports gone to ‘assist fertility.’ Turns out it was about women’s sports all along—if getting rid of women's sports counts, that is.
Watching a new lit mag issue drop after your submission for it was rejected
I literally dreamed about getting an acceptance on a story I've been submitting for forever.
Memorial murals around the world for George Floyd, whose murder by Minneapolis police on 25 May 2020 sparked uprisings in cities around the US, and protests against police racism in various cities around the world.
I did not know—the founding member of Avalon, Christian singing group from the 90's, was kicked out for being gay. He re-released Testify to Love, this time in a gay way. I'm a queer ex-Christian estranged from my family because of their beliefs. I'm so fucking emotional about this story/song.
Wow we really thought we pulled that off. I can't believe I let the sharks see me like this.
The traditional seven year anniversary gift is copper or wool. Naturally, we took gummies and went to the aquarium. I found the meaning of life when I looked inside a lionfish's mouth.

Do urologists make cis men get naked from the waist down and sit with a thin, small, paper sheet over them while they wait and wait for the doctor to come in, or is that just gynecologists?
Men can & should be advocating for abortion. Saying abortion is a "woman’s issue" both excludes trans, intersex, & non-binary folks who get abortions, and ignores the reality that abortion access impacts everyone.
But what is rarely mentioned is the negative effect that this pinkwashing has on our LGBTQ+ nonprofits, Pride-goers and the entire spirit of Pride. The efforts of our nonprofits to keep up with the (Edward) Joneses means we spend money we don’t really have to compete for Pride-goers’ attention.
Three ways to immediately change corporate participation in Ohio’s Pride celebrations. Pride has lost its way, but we can restore the activism and community it was founded on (and lay off the swag). thebuckeyeflame.com/2025/02/04/t...
Yes, Trump should absolutely be disqualified from holding office for a LOT of reasons, including sexual abuse. Do you think putting someone else who commits sexual abuse in office would be better? If so, why do you even dislike Trump in the first place?
This is a great thing to say but it doesn't mean much when you look at the excessive wealth the Catholic Church possesses or remember the history of violence they've wrought. Not to mention the pedophelia, colonialism, and general religious trauma they've inflicted on the world.
Absolutely remarkable statement from Pope Leo today. One for the history books www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...
With lit mags, a kind, personalized rejection is almost as good as an acceptance.
I became a parent eleven years ago, and I'm weirdly proud, reading this. I try so hard to teach my kids kindness and empathy. I love that there's data showing our efforts are having a real impact. ❤️

This is like his final Pokémon evolution. Of course his final form is as a wellness podcaster.
It's cool guys, the destruction of a civilization has been delayed for two weeks. Everything is fine.
"I can not believe America has becom--" bitch, we have Andrew Jackson on our money. our default money. the only money the bank robot knows how to hand out.
Just watched my child put pieces of candy up his nostrils then take them out then eat them. Motherhood is beautiful. Happy Easter.
