I want to send a special shout-out to my very VERY patient, chill livestock guardian dog Jack: every single baby goat we've had on this farm has to check and see if maybe, just maybe, there's an udder with milk hiding somewhere on the dog.

And Jack just patiently lets them all learn he does not have an udder. He's a very good boy.

As a long-time ally of the LGBTQI+ community, I am honored to join the Congressional Equality Caucus to ensure equal protection under the law for LGBTQI+ people in #OH11 and across the country.

Iowa high school student Clementine Springsteen got up on stage to be recognized for academic honors

Calmly shouting “trans rights are human rights!” right next to republican Governor Kim Reynolds

The same governor who signed bills banning gender-affirming care for people under 18 and restricting bathroom access for all trans folks

Get busy on restricting voting access republicans. Because kids hate you.

After months of darkness during the Danish winter, entering the garden to see the flowering Marguerite is such a joy. 😍

Watch the video attached to the story at the link below: White supremacist activities are on the rise in Columbus, Ohio. If we don't nip it in the bud and take a stand now, we are headed for disaster. And while you might think "hey, they're only protesting drag shows," I encourage you to revisit the lead-up to WWII in Germany in the 1930s.

I knew that "Strange World" was an eco-parable but I did not quite understand just how radical it was. I love animation and I definitely want to watch it now.

I've often thought that at the root of the Climate Crisis is the crisis of narrative or storytelling. We only can conceive of a new future by playing with the possible through the imagination.

...think I'll pass.

I’ve diligently worked my entire life to cultivate the grace with which I was not born. Only in granting myself compassion did I truly find it.

Learn more about my journey with #EhlersDanlos and #hypermobility in today’s @Huffingtonpost. I hope it helps someone else find an answer and perhaps hope for the future.

This makes me sad, it implies the increases in people being diagnosed autistic aren't "real" and such people aren't really autistic 🙁

It's also strange this is the takeaway, not that people weren't spotted earlier as #ActuallyAutistic.

I am reminded of this graph of left-handedness. There aren't more left-handed people than before, they're just being correctly identified (and not made to surpress their left-handedness):

How can democracy self-correct if the public does not understand where the problem lies? And where will the pressure for change come from if journalists do not hold the responsible parties accountable?https://presswatchers.org/2023/04/republicans-threaten-to-tank-economy-media-blames-biden/

From now on, anytime someone asks me why I put so much time and effort into this arguably dumb account, I will simply tell them that I do it for Tim.

China just voted for a UN resolution that calls russia the aggressor in Ukraine.

If you’re an old rock star who has scolding, uninformed opinions about trans people, ask your kids if shutting the fuck up is right for you.

Guy kills five neighbors including a child because they ask him to stop scaring the kids with his machine gun. My brother is at Safeway yesterday and a guy pulled a gun on another guy inside the store because of a parking lot beef. Like. This is terrorism. I am terrified. No one wants to live like this!!!!

People are calling Moms for Liberty National Socialites but I really like Klanned Karenhood.
