Also, a crisis line replacing real human support with a chat bot??? Good lord.
Last year, Washington state enacted a wealth tax on capital gains profits of the richest .2%. It was fought tooth and nail by billionaire-funded groups & passed by one vote. In one year, it's raised $850 million for child care & school construction—triple what was expected. 🧵
Seeing people call bills protecting the bodily autonomy of people who can give birth as well as ensuring gender affirming is available to those who need it "hyperpartisan" gives me a headache.
Oregonians said 🗣️ “FIND OUT, Republicans!” Banning state senators from running again for unexcused absences was not on my BINGO card but I’ll take this unexpected win for Oregon, well done voters! Now enforce it 👏👏
In my first video interview documenting Queer Elders in Africa, I sit with Wofa Yaw, a 60+ years gay man who has lived as gay in Ghana for about 30 years.
Consultation and collaboration are imperative to telling stories like this in a good way. If they weren’t intentional in their approach to work with Indigenous folx & community I doubt it would have been the same calibre of film or received the 9 minute standing ovation it did.
Osage Nation Chief Standing Bear consulted on "Killers of the Flower Moon" and joined Martin Scorsese and the cast at the #Cannes world premiere: "I asked Mr. Scorsese: 'How are you going to approach this story?'" bit.ly/3OvwMJo
It just feels so utterly hopeless. I know that queers & feminists in China know how to work a loophole, a cat door, a hairline fracture, a whisper, a metaphor, but soon that's too subtle and quiet to reach the people who need it. A secret handshake can't replace a lighthouse.
this is exactly what it is so much of the economy is based on work done by exploited neurodivergents and if all of us actually knew who we were & what we’re capable of? that’s where we’re going—together

“I went to THREE private clinics, paid out of pocket & was told I have ADHD, which I refused to believe, so I…” <checks notes> “used my status as a journo to jump people waiting 5 years for an NHS evaluation” you couldn’t pay me enough to admit I was this terrible a human
are struggling to survive. How long they can hold on for (or, rather, be allowed to hold on for) is unclear. For more on the closing of space for LGBTQ expression and advocacy please see: outrightinternational.org/our-work/human… 5/5
The Center’s closure is another gut punch for China’s beleaguered LGBTQ movement. Shanghai Pride & LGBT Rights Advocacy China closed in 2021 under pressure from authorities cnn.com/2021/07/09/chi…; apnews.com/article/techno…. While not officially closed, many orgs are inactive or...
The Center also focused on developing LGBTQ-affirming health professionals so LGBT ppl could find appropriate care (rather than, for eg, encounter a therapist who would push them to pursue conversion therapy). English-language state media often highlighted the Center's work. 3/5
Due to political sensitivity, LGBTQ-related research is very limited in China. When times were better, the Center was able to work w/ forward-looking scholars to conduct large surveys, which have since been cited in countless media & academic articles. A few examples: 2/5
The Beijing LGBT Center announced its closure today. Founded in 2008, the Center was a vibrant community space & a groundbreaking advocacy organization. Their team spearheaded pioneering research, and built networks of LGBTQ-affirming health & business professionals. 1/5
I haven’t talked about it much here, but the employees at Powell’s Books (yes, where I work) are fighting for a living wage and better healthcare. Powell’s isn’t keen on giving us either. We’re asking folks to read, sign, and share this petition 💖 bit.ly/tell-powells
NEW: Ronald Reagan learned his disastrous "trickle down" economics from a man named Milton Friedman. We're still suffering the consequences today. @FDSignifier breaks down the most notorious right-wing economist and how he broke our economy.
