Today is world jellyfish day! And as such we are reminded that there's a thin semantic line separating weird and beautiful, and that line is covered in jellyfish.

In which a straight woman highlights a bunch of known anti trans activists and claims there's a divide in the queer community.

It's pure propaganda and gaslighting.

Alt text: Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article headline titled “The Growing Divide in the Rainbow Coalition.” The subheadline reads, “More gay people are speaking out against the gender ideology of trans and queer activists.” The article is categorized under “U.S.” and written by Pamela Paul, published on October 31, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. ET.

This goes double if you have any friends who are currently immunocompromised, for example, undergoing chemo treatment. They can't get the measles vaccine, because it's a live one, but you getting it helps keep them that little bit safer.

My good friends all did this for me during the 2019 outbreak.

Kate @knhannah.bsky.social · 7d

Please please folks check your vaxx status & that of your kids. Measles is not “just a childhood illness”; before vaccinations it killed and disabled millions of people every year. Remember, your vaccine doesn’t just protect you, but those too young or too immunocompromised to be vaccinated.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I really need people to understand that a government this antagonistic to its own citizens that has manufactured crisis after crisis is not a government that intends to honor democratic removal. Because they know what would have to happen for the nation to heal.
