.@JamesTalarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

[Prof. Stephen Whittle OBE, PhD, DLaws, FAcSS, @stephenwhittle]

I have achieved a good life in the social role of a man - exceptional really as I’ve never claimed to be anything other than a trans man

I have fought not just for the rights of TP but also for women in my work

You can never understand the person I am

But you cld try empathy

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too.

Anyone - left, right, or center - who has highlighted the importance of constitutional rights + free speech should be sounding the alarm now.

Knowledge is power. Truth is liberation.

Misinformation can’t stop a community rooted in truth and resilience. By learning how to spot and stop the spread of false narratives, we protect each other and build a future where trans people thrive. #CareIsOurLegact

IMPORTANT:

As a U.S. citizen, you are under NO OBLIGATION to comply with ICE agents, UNLESS they have a warrant.

AND that warrant must be signed by a federal judge.

@EpiEllie Sadly at my family’s holiday dinner table where my brother-in-law (a fire fighter w/o an advanced degree in any science) announces his million dollar idea to deal with plastics is to “ship it all to Hawaii and burn it in volcanoes using a conveyor belt”. I kid you not.

Americans, have you done your civic duty yet? This is a crucial moment for our country. We must continue our efforts to create change for ourselves and those we love, and I hope you will join me in casting your vote in this election! Remember that your vote makes a difference 💛

I want you all to have this.

“Punitive approaches are driving #LGBTQ+ people, sex workers, people who use drugs, and other marginalised communities away from life-saving health services. This is an injustice. Leaders, scrap these hateful harmful laws, now.” - @Winnie_Byanyima 🇺🇳 #AIDS2024
