Just for old times' sake, my petition to allow US and UK trans and nonbinary people fleeing transphobic laws and a potential genocide to claim asylum in Canada? Well, it closes in just under one week. At the moment, we're about sixteen thousand signatures short of the second-most signatures on any Canadian petition to the government. Ever.

So I'm gonna send this around one more time, with the hope that Canadians will see it, sign it, and pass it along. You will need a Canadian address (a real one) to fill out the form.

"The fight between DeSantis and Disney illustrates the dramatic ideological change in the Republican Party in the last two years. No longer committed to keeping the government weak to stay out of the way of business development, the party is now committed to creating a strong government that enforces Christian nationalism.

This is a major and crucially important political shift."

So nice to see the Indigo Bunting, a stunning finch! Usually hard to photograph because they tend to sit in the highest tree tops, against a blue sky. Not today though.

If thoughts and prayers did any good, all of mine would have seen Ted Cruz lose his job long ago.

Over the weekend, white supremacists were out in force in D.C. and internet hero Joe Flood heckled their hate rally with the most on-point taunts.

The video is absolutely priceless. Way to go, Joe! 👏

Oh, this is rich. Hawley's latest solution to the so-called "masculinity crisis" in America is...checks notes...the Bible.

Apparently when I said I wanted to see Les Misérables someday, I should have clarified that I did not mean "unfolding on the streets around me in real time".

#Today is another opportunity for an adventure. It is cloudy so it's a good day for a nice early walk around the neighborhood. It will be a short walk so as not leave new housemate alone too long. #SheltieLife #DogsOfMastodon

We obviously need an aggressive policy response to the gun violence emergency. But a society in which this kind of behavior is widespread, and one major party’s political elites as well as millions of their followers regard it as somehow acceptable, also needs to look much deeper. 1/
