The best, most hilarious, most appalling and terrifying summary.

[fooler initiative @metroadlib]

I LITERALLY stopped working on my memo so I could read this indictment.

I am on page 24 and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST.

HOW this man still has the capacity to shock me after everything that's happened, i'll never know.

but I am sitting here *STUNNED*.

Wow: Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones, one of the Dems that the GOP is trying to expel from state legislature to protesting gun violence, calls out his colleagues on the floor

‘For years, one of your colleagues, an admitted child molester, sat in this chamber – no expulsion’

1. Zoe is an Orangutan who lives at a VA zoo.

She was orphaned when she was 9 months old so she never had the chance to learn how to be a mom or breastfeed

So when Zoe gave birth to a boy, a zookeeper brought in her own son and breastfed him in front of Zoe so she could learn.

Happy thread and an excellent reminder that little acts of kindness make a huge impact.

[Jasmine('s boobs hurt) @Ranting_Trans]

Any trans people have nice little stories of gender affirmation or just being a good ally from cis people?

One of my faves is when we had a work retreat with my office, and the plan was to have a house for the boys and a house for the girls.

So lovely to read this story-- great books plus some recommendations for me.

[The Readiatrician- not here anymore @readiatrician]

I said goodbye to a patient a few years ago. She didn’t die, she just got old. I treat patients to age 21 and they move on. When they do, I joke, “well, I did my job! I kept you alive until adulthood!”

With this kid, it was not a joke. 1/

City & State thinks we’re going to beat Jim Tedisco — and so do we!

If a public official states that they are concerned about climate change, ask them what they are doing to make our communities more walkable & bikable.

For a progressive state, New York isn't very bikable.

oh my lordy, she is just so cute, LOVE Lizzo!

[Library of Congress @librarycongress]

Hearing @lizzo play some of the Library's priceless antique instruments on Monday was such a gift, and we were honored and happy to help her share that gift with her concert audience Tuesday night. Here is some more behind-the-scenes footage of her Library tour. #LizzoAtLOC

This is just so terrible.

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

Hey everyone! If you have ever asked "what can I do to help trans rights," I have something.

Biden's title IX change protecting trans people in schools is open comment for 4 more days!

It is FLOODED by TERF comments.

GO MAKE A COMMENT IN SUPPORT!

Cards Against Humanity is donating 100% of their profits to the National Network of Abortion Funds if the order comes from a state restricting abortion access.

If someone selects “I didn’t agree to this” an additional $5 donation is added to their cart. 😂
