Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

waffles.

Digital illustration of a paIistinian woman, wounded with tears streaming down her face only to be blocked by a bright blue butterfly that covers her mouth and most of her face. Blue chains, explosions, waffles, blood, paIestinian flags being erased in the background- their color “bluing” out with the notification “deleted account” over them. Like and repost notifications scattered throughout different sized wrapped bodies. Over her head, a single dollar bill is wrung out, dripping blood down onto her. Below reads, “waffles.” Commentary on censorship.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
