It's very important for leftists in the U.S. to understand that this woman, Erika Hilton, was key to Lula's success in the second round of Brazil's presidential elections yesterday. Hilton, a Black trans woman who became the most voted for congresswoman in Brazil's history this month, 1/2

I love sex workers and I love furries and I love trans people and I love nsfw creators and all the people that first came to bluesky and made this site into what it is. The same people the devs of this site actively hate and keep trying to get rid of. May they never be swept away. Give them hell.

It's so funny that MapQuest was all but counted out on the mat after taking a beating from Google Maps and Apple Maps but they navigated (lol) this current fuckshit political climate like a fucking boss. Kudos to whomever decided they should position themselves as WokeMaps

If you're on a budget, learn how to shop for second-hand clothing through eBay, Etsy, and local thrift shops. For instance, shopping on eBay can be aided by checking for country-specific eBay sites (e.g., eBay UK) and utilizing Boolean searches.

BASIC BOOLEAN OPERATORS ON EBAY
1. To search for an exact phrase, use quotation marks.
For example, searching for “Polo Ralph Lauren” will pull up all the auctions that have “Polo Ralph Lauren” in the title, not just stuff that says “Ralph Lauren polo.” The second does not have the words in the correct order.
2. To search for multiple things at once, use parentheses and commas.
For example, searching for (Gucci, Hermes, Louis Vuitton) will pull up all the auctions with Gucci OR Hermes OR Louis Vuitton in the title. The listing only has to meet one of those qualifiers. This saves you from having to do three separate searches.
3. To exclude a certain word, use the minus sign.
For example, searching for Gucci -cashmere will bring up all the auctions with Gucci in the title but exclude any that also have the word cashmere.
4. Note, you can combine these techniques.
For example, searching for (small, medium) Gucci -cashmere will pull all the auctions that have “small” OR “medium” in the title, along with Gucci, but does not contain the term cashmere.
