They think we hold our leaders as sacred as they do theirs. This is one of the worst, but in a similar vein is "but Bill Clinton is in the Epstein files"...Like so what? If he's in there we hold him accountable too. Truth is my first loyalty, justice and equity my second.

The layers! The layers! It's probably because I occasionally get caught on those finding your relatives videos and that one ex-mormon influencer who is super interesting.

Just got deseret Book ad. An app that promises no surprise spice and curated "clean" romance. Tag line "join your proper romance era".

Slut shaming is in I guess.

just call them close door romances and stop defining your romance as the morally correct type.

Same! I started it earlier in the year, but wasn't where I needed to be to read it. When it came around again, I was ready and seriously probably going to be in my top 5 of all time if it keeps it up.

My content’s going to be obnoxious today & tomorrow, fair warning. I’m trying to hit my goal of 500 paid subscribers in Bindery for my birthday tomorrow and I am 115 away. So I will be obnoxious as I try to make that happen over the next 48 hours. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have a few books I'm reading for an upcoming author conversation I get to HOST. (Still not over this) But Luminous by Silvia Park has me by the throat so I'm reading that instead.

The human on robot crime has me hoping for an unusual robots win storyline over a Black Beauty ending.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

You might like it. It's a hard read for me. It's def set in a world where the transphobes, homophobes, and racist nationalist win.

I could see this for sure. Honestly, it needs to be taught with the Giver and 1984. Amongst many others.

Gliff by Ali Smith is a stunning dystopian. I am clutching nearly every sentence to my chest. Honestly, this is a classic in the making. #💙📚 #📚📚

If we're doing groceries and take-out discourse, here's my take:

Man-made famines are crimes against humanity.

If you can help the World Central Kitchen in Gaza, please do. Donate dollars. Call your reps. Share their story in your communities to invite help.

Someone will probably call this hyperbole. To which I say, you've been calling every true prediction about this hyperbole for years.

Jessie Gender @jessiegender.bsky.social · Jul 25

So the executive order today that not only criminalizes but institutionalizes mental health disabilities is not only super Nazish- but also can be used to easily set up legal pretense to label folks like trans people as “mentally ill” so they can round us up into prisons or camps.
