It's our Trans Day of Remembrance showcase with @poeticunderground.bsky.social This showcase is close to my heart. I feel like it's a love song of resistance for my community...but I also feel a deep sense of sadness--the emptiness due to those we lost. Maybe tonights poetry will help with that.
Hello everyone! To everyone in the #kansascity poetry scene, we have a great event coming up at Blip Roasterie. It's our Trans Day of Remembrance showcase, and food drive. It's this upcoming Wed and we would love to see you at this community event

*me looking at the blue election results in Virginia* Y'all. What if Missouri was NEXT? What do you think @piperformissouri.bsky.social ??
In this turbulent time...this is HUGE. A bit of hope. Sparks in the night. Let this be the turning point. Let this be the turning point.
A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

If you’re seeing a surge of MAGA accounts commenting everywhere, take a closer look. Bot activity has spiked since Saturday evening the goal is to sway tomorrow’s elections. Click on their profiles and you’ll often find the same accounts posting identical comments across hundreds of posts.
David Byrne has always been a punk and a great ally. This is one of the reasons I love this man as an autistic icon
lmao david byrne showed the video of the ice agents tripping over themselves while trying to run after a biker on wacker drive during the “life during wartime” segment of his chicago show tonight
Honestly these kids are braver than many of the adults. I will say this: I have always loved Gen z and Gen alpha, and it's because of stuff like this. They stand on business and protect each other. The older generation could stand to learn a thing or two from them
In the US, school children are distributing whistles and information on how to resist the Trump regime’s ICE ethnic cleansing operations.
Hi I would also like to mention the Three Meal Rule when it comes to unrest. This is the idea that it takes people missing three meals, and being hungry, to overthrow governments, participate in mass protests, and/or general strike. But if these evil fuckers want their own downfall, 'kay.
To all those “Let them go without food for a month, maybe they’ll get a job” people: Most SNAP recipients have jobs. Exploitative jobs that keep them living just below the poverty line. — Should they starve to death? And then what?
Btw. When someone in your life has been victimized in such an awful way, this is the energy you bring against the predator. This. This is a masterclass on standing up for those who have been silenced
In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government. She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her. So I confronted him.
So gang, I completed my first #fallout fic featuring The Ghoul! It was supposed to be a quick short story, and ended up being over 60 pages. 🫠 However, I hope y'all enjoy this spice with WAY too much plot. Honestly...jokes aside, I am pretty proud of it. archiveofourown.org/works/72936656
