My goal is to be as kind as I can, but still curb-stomp racists, bigots, sexist, & anti-LGBTQIA+ jerks, & fight for abortion rights

Yep.

When you start bargaining which percentage of the people you can sacrifice to stave off fascism, you've already lost to fascism.

A tremendous benefit of being an inclusive trans person is that I don't have to waste any more of my precious time on this planet policing Other People's gender or sexuality.

As long as everyone is consenting, you do you, boo.

there are *so many* big number accounts on twitter saying "we can't leave, we built a community here and-" sorry pal, you're anchoring smaller accounts to a site which could deposit illegal imagery directly into their timeline. the only sensible move is to tell them to leave, and you with it

Not realizing that when you raise someone as if they're an unwanted burden, they feel that way every day for the rest of their life. This is one of the innumerable reasons why people who don't want children shouldn't have children. Whether or not you want to admit it we could feel we were not wanted

The surge is surging today. Many ppl taken. This is with roughly 500 agents on the ground.

This also means CBP is coming. Extremely bad news.
