The Gaineses donated to the “anti-CRT” school board campaign of Chip’s sister, and once elected, she voted to adopt a sweeping policy that bans discussions of LGBTQ identities, limits lessons about racism and permits teachers to deadname trans children against parents’ wishes.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows.

Don’t you dare act surprised.

stop telling your trans friend that she’s so brave. she didn’t sign up to be brave. it’s time for you to be brave. you can start small - push back against transphobia everywhere you see it, even if it makes people uncomfortable. especially then.

Qatar has banned alcohol sales and also "bring gay" and you get one guess which ban people will be more mad about. https://t.co/xfDUMg5vvS

important to add that part of being able to love surprise is not to always operate at max capacity. my therapist taught me that 80% of your full capacity *is* your max operating capacity. then 20% is left for when you get surprised.

Matrix multiplication is not easy to understand.

Even looking at the definition used to make me sweat, let alone trying to comprehend the pattern. Yet, there is a stunningly simple explanation behind it.

Warnock needs to make decisions on staffing and ad buys this week. If you haven’t given yet, today is the day. If you’ve already donated, can you do one more?

Looking at the summary, it appears that what this bill would do is mandate federal recognition for marriages performed in states where it remained legal, but NOT codify the federal right to marriage set out in Obergefell.

This is a big, ongoing challenge for a lot of folks from minoritized communities. How do you speak up — sharing your experiences and leveraging your privilege — without being branded as “the person who always brings up X?”

[Molly Shack @mollyshack]

Getting a lot of questions asking why Ohio is not performing politically like other Midwestern states like Michigan. The Ohio GOP has been completely rigging the rules, undermining the strength of our votes and systematically suppressing votes since Obama won the state twice. 🧵
