The Human Rights Campaign joined the NAACP and other civil rights groups in issuing travel or relocation warnings for the Sunshine State. #Florida is a piece of shit.

@JonKramer As a Jew, I spent my entire life wondering how Germany got to that point. Now I know. But the ghetto uprisings didn’t work either.
@JonKramer Can’t argue with that. I’m just hoping it can all be done peacefully.
@JonKramer Only for protection, not as an aggressor.
@JonKramer They didn’t understand what was coming then. We do, today.

How many books does it take to make a kid gay?
Only one. But the kid has to really, really be gay.
@JonKramer No. We continue to put down violence and insurrection.

@AlliFlowers , I am at a loss on this. What can an individual do? My state is currently fairly safe for trans folks, Kentucky. But we may slip into darkness here too. So offering shelter to people from other states may not work. But I strongly advise people to flee those states that are falling, now. It's 1930s Germany in Florida and Texas right now. Just being noisy isn't enough, I don't think.
@JonKramer It’s the poem. First they came for the trade unionists. We cannot allow it to begin this time.We are all Other.

Yesterday I made a wee loop of some figures dancing by a river, & only realised after posting that I'd made a #RiverDance and should have, you know, done the *proper* dance.
So I decided to give it a go.
It did not go well, but it made me laugh so...

This is good! You can't address systemic racism without first admitting its existence.
A Black professor has long said what the IRS now admits: The tax system is biased
