You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?
On the plus side that's kind of their whole thing, but on the minus side, I've definitely been kidnapped by something horrible.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

Your regular reminder that Bibi Netanyahu is about as religious and theologically serious as Trump is.
That is to say--
yeah.
Exactly that much.
In both cases, *fundamentalist zealotry* animates *one or more factions* of those they're trying to appease, but not all of them. That's it.

I keep thinking about how the misrepresentation of the McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit convinced Americans that it was too easy to sue corporations — a laughable idea if you think about it for 10 seconds.
It's the same with trans kids: The scandal is that care is too hard to get, not too easy.

10/n To sum up:
1. The moral panic was gibberish. Only a tiny proportion of kids have ever been diagnosed with GD, and very few of those got drugs in the UK.
2. Services in the UK were TERRIBLE before the Cass review. Less than 1/10 ELIGIBLE kids were prescribed medications!

truly I think it’s a shame that A Knight’s Tale doesn’t have the cult following it deserves. it’s got charm, it’s got heart, it’s got Heath “she’s not the target, she’s the arrow” Ledger. it looks camp in the eye, and asks if camp changed its stars and followed its feet. also, Alan Tudyk is there

My latest thing in this vein is joining my local Friends of the Library, both because I support libraries doing critical work and also to gain new relationships with people in my community. I feel isolated - gaining new connections is how I can learn where to contribute locally.
Another great way to resist is
Don’t
Don’t center resistance , center competence and effectiveness
I’m feeding kids/ clothing folks/ securing communications translating
Build structures Not focused on being oppositional

LIVE 👏 TO 👏 SEE 👏 THEM 👏 DIE
Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
