So, no thread on heat prep and response. More than anything else, this feels like the end of my Twitter era. Feels really strange.

[Thursday Bram @thursdayb]

There's a heat advisory for Portland on Tuesday and Wednesday. In years past, I've made threads of mutual aid requests, closures, and other important info. I can't do it anymore. One reason? I look at a hell of a lot more than 600 tweets to compile those threads.

I also used to rely on third-party tools to process all the information to put together resource docs for use outside of social media. I can't do that anymore either — changes to social media APIs (including Twitter and reddit) make those tools useless to me.

A little preview of what we got up to earlier this month! Artthew (they/he) and Hesadiah (she/her) gorgeously modeled some autistic and ADHD-friendly dating for #DisabledAndHere.

Interviews and photos to come in July, but in the meantime, have some behind the scenes captures!

Across the country, @shoeshine and @iff_or found thousands of women who were reported by hospitals – and investigated by child protective services – for taking safe, prescribed addiction treatment medications during their pregnancies.

This is not responsible communication, in case anyone was wondering.

On our updated Transgender Topical Guide: trans-exclusionary radical feminist.
We recommend avoiding the vague and politicized term to describe cisgender women or others who object to the inclusion of transgender women in women's spaces.

@Amandablum There's some material on Karnstein's legal career available online, but that's about it. He specializes in intellectual property, has run a couple of times for school board, but hasn't shared much about specific education issues.

It’s sunny in PDX and that means: time to start up #DisabledAndHere shoots for the year! We’re calling for disabled queer and trans BIPOC couples to feature in a park date photoshoot plus interviews.

Today is going to be a hard day for a lot of folks in Portland. Take care of yourself and our community. Support the people who were there. Feel what you need to feel.

At Ockley Green Middle School, students walked out of class to protest the school recently placing two Black school staffers on leave. Students also have concerns about the school's vice principal, who is currently named in a federal Title IX complaint.

@ClaudiaEBerger Thank you! And a samosa? That's such a cool addition!

[Thursday Bram @thursdayb]

@ClaudiaEBerger 💚💚💚If you're comfortable sharing, I'd love to see your adaptation!

It's just over two weeks until Pesach, so this seems like a good time to spread the word about A Haggadah of Our Own! It's a modern, inclusive haggadah that solves a lot of the problems with older haggadot, and I highly recommend checking it out. https://t.co/aFWyLbitHO

[Thursday Bram @thursdayb]

@TheSarahShay Aww, thank you! I had basically the same goal in mind when I created A Haggadah of Our Own.
