This should terrify people in terms of what it means not only for teachers and librarians, but for parents. Once exposure to queer content gets classified as child abuse, that will be the excuse they use to remove kids from queer homes, or even just homes that teach acceptance.
Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

Just saw the head of a prominent nonprofit who has said NOTHING about Israel's ongoing genocide of Palestinians. NOTHING in 9 months. Posting their 'strong' opposition to political violence and wishing Trump well.

so if i understand this correctly democrats are establishing trump as somebody to have sympathy for and unilaterally suspending their campaign efforts while the republicans work to establish a new rule that calling trump a fascist threat to democracy is stoking political violence

Correction: Democrats are expressing sympathy and suspending campaign ads while Republicans are saying calling Trump a fascist is stoking violence . . . and also blaming Biden and calling for his arrest. Asymmetrical decency.

My condolences for the man who was barely injured despite his intentions to kill me. I hope he has a swift recovery so I can be killed faster and with vigor

New York Times Editorial Board: "Mr. Trump’s political agenda cannot and must not be opposed by violence. It cannot and must not be pursued through violence." Ok but to be clear Trump's political agenda *is* violence. We get that right? I dont want us to miss that www.nytimes.com/2024/07/13/o...

A lot of “Native territory” maps pin the Lipan Apache to a small region, but we were all over Texas (and elsewhere). Save this for your land acknowledgements in Texas, which actually do help us, IMO, since we’re actively fighting erasure and making strides in political rights.

The solution to the multiple crises we are facing isn’t “outlaw billionaires” - its restore Indigenous sovereignty.

Gaza City in the north is experiencing really horrific bombardments right now- while families are on the streets trying to go to a safe place that doesn’t exist 😢

The people of Gaza saying it feels like the first day of genocide. The airstrikes are everywhere and non-stop.

The perception of an inevitable fascist victory in Europe is largely just the wishcasting of mainstream media publications saying that fascist victory is inevitable. See how the BBC spins National Rally's loss.

The UN accused Israel of carrying out "systematic attacks" on hospitals as a British charity decried the killing of 500 health care workers since the war in Gaza began.
500 medical workers killed during Israel’s military assault on Gaza, UN sayswww.politico.eu “This equates to an average of two health care workers killed every day,” British charity warns.

Doesn't really bode well that neither the president nor the moderators nor the mainstream press have had anything to say in response to Trump's use of "Palestinian" as an insult

This is a chilling and deeply disturbing read about the conditions in Sde Teiman, "the death camp," an Israeli detention center currently torturing over 4,000 Palestinians. Strong CN for physical, sexual, and mental abuse, including of minors.

"Kill your darlings" only applies if you're holding onto something that actually hurts your story. But jerks sometimes use "kill your darlings" as a weapon to try to break you. Don't wantonly kill what you love the most about your story. That's why you're writing it. Make it work.
if u see this, quote-post with your tips for writers that no one gives anymore because they seem obvious (even though they're not)

Pikuach nefesh ("saving a life") is the principle in Jewish law that the preservation of human life overrides virtually any other religious rule of Judaism. Masks save lives. A mask ban is NOT battling antisemitism.
This is made explicit in convos about the suggested mask ban in NY, which is being positioned as a way to battle antisemitism. So protestors can be identified.
