For those freaking out about Project 2025 now and how the word pornography will be weaponised to silence and imprison people, spare half a thought for the sex workers who have been ringing the alarm bell on this for decades.

Be kind to your local cartoonists. SDCC new project announcement week is tough on them. If they show signs of distress, bring them inside.

I made this into a proper response to the absolutely misplaced calls to "turn down the heat": newrepublic.com/article/1838...

My first thought this morning after I remembered the news was how many people over the last few years have put their bodies between armed far right guys and kids going to the library or a bookstore

Just a reminder: Trump inherited the lowest homicide rate of any president in 50 years. He was the first president in 30 years to leave office with a higher homicide rate than when he entered. And the rate has dropped every year since he left. www.foxnews.com/video/635815...

also and I feel like I buried the lede here: it calls for the people who CREATE queer media to be imprisoned. That'd be people like me. Or any other queer creator you love. Any queen who's been on drag race. Chappel Roan. Janelle Monae. Anyone who's made a piece of queer media. Imprisoned.

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.

If you’ve written a TV show or movie that includes trans or other LGBTQ+ characters, Project 2025 wants to send you to prison for being a “purveyor of pornography.”

under trump’s project 2025, a middle-class family with two children would pay $2,600 in additional federal income tax by comparison, a married couple with two children and earnings of $5 million a year would enjoy a $325,000 tax cut

Political scientists call this agenda setting. When the SCOTUS public approval rating is at a historical low, the Prez should talk about it in the election--loudly. Let people know you heard their anger. Even if Biden fails, put the GOP on record with votes against Court reform. tinyurl.com/yc7h7xsr

Maybe VP Harris told a crowd that Trump said he would terminate the Constitution because Trump said he would terminate the Constitution.

It also outlines the need to cut off federal funding for any school that teaches "critical race theory," in the same breath. So, teach history the jingoistic way we demand or don't get funding. And erase queer people or we will pursue legal action.

if you’re trying to engage with politically disconnected people about project 2025, identify a specific part that you think will resonate with them. i just told my friend who’s a public school teacher about the plan to abolish the department of education and that got her hooked.

Mostly agree except on reflection I feel like the three-day combo of the shooting, the Cannon decision, and the Vance pick was a powerful reminder of how miserable and exhausting it was to live with one goddamn thing after another when this guy had the spotlight for four straight years

I think Trump getting shot and being photographed with a defiant fist in the air, bloodied and unbowed, will actually lead to zero changed votes. He might be the only person in the universe that would be true of.

JD Vance is an abortion extremist, voted against protecting contraception and wants increased birth rates Ask him why he and his wife "only" have 3 kids. Do they use contraception? DC punditry would get the vapors if anyone asked, but he's got no problem delving intlo our private lives Fair play
