On February 3, a horrifying railroad accident took place. A Norfolk Southern freight train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. You might've seen images of the flames, but you probably haven't heard that unions were trying to prevent this exact accident. 🧵

@Tom_Hazelton I'm so glad he's been a blessing to you 💗

[Bethany D. @Bethany1775]

@Tom_Hazelton It really is! I laughed, I cried, I loved it.

The comments on this are so wholesome ❤

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender I agree and I think you'll find that pastor who's channel I included to be of a similar mind. I was raised right-wing conservative evangelical and the Bible did more to get me away from that than it ever did to make me agree with their politics

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender Philosophytube is a good one too, though well over half her content is from before she transitioned, which has led to some people thinking it's two different channel hosts: https://t.co/27ILZzLilX

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender This is his primary one: https://t.co/YTNyZ0BZth

[Bethany D. @Bethany1775]

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender Will do! He actually interviewed Jessie on his second channel: https://t.co/pnjf4bM247

[Bethany D. @Bethany1775]

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender Also, if you haven't run into his channel yet, Beau of the Fifth Column is another one worth checking out. He and Jessie are two of the most hopeful channels I've found as far as looking towards a better world while still acknowledging the one we've got now

[Bethany D. @Bethany1775]

@Tom_Hazelton @jessiegender I've had my own fight with learning to check privilege & listening to others, so I know it takes work. I'm still learning every day, but I believe that people can grow & change, so I try to encourage others too. If enough people try, maybe we can leave behind a better world

@kevin_h86 @jessiegender I honestly view it as meaning, you are not going to be able to completely avoid evil when consuming because there is no ethical consumption, so do your best, but put the blame on the system, not the individuals forced to live in it who are just trying to get by

India is home to some of the most beautiful and diverse architecture in the world. Here's just a few of the best:

Have you ever noticed that the save icon is a floppy disk, even though they became obsolete twenty years ago?

That's called a "skeuomorph" - when something new takes on the appearance of what it replaced.

And once you start to look, they're everywhere...

@v8_venturi @zuza_real I sometimes use Rainbow Mafia when I don't want to say LGBTQIA+

@And_Dream_Big @lisafleisher @CheapoCrappy Inside is actually pretty nice

Megan Mullally telling Nick Offerman to choose the role where he does gay stuff… she really is our biggest ally
