The Kyiv City State Administration has announced that the first dinosaur park in Ukraine will be reopening in Kyiv on Saturday, April 29. From 12:00 to 15:00, the grand opening of the park will take place in Hydropark, and the animators have prepared a variety of activities and entertainment for young visitors, such as games with props, relay races, contests, aqua makeup elements, dance battles, musical accompaniment, and a mini-bubble disco. All children will also receive balloon figures as a gift. The park will be open daily from 10:00 to 20:00, seven days a week. Free admission is provided for certain groups, such as children under 3 years old, orphans, children of fallen war veterans, ATO and combatants, children with disabilities with an attendant, birthday children under 12 (on the day of the holiday), and every third and subsequent child of a large family (provided that all children are present).

I don't know how to say this in a way that will matter, or even get noticed, but I really need cishet people to understand something:

The people labelling LGBTQ+ folk groomers and pedophiles know it isn't true.

They aren't spreading false information accidentally. Their goal isn't to raise an alarm about something they think is a legitimate threat to children. Their goal is to vilify LGBTQ+ people to set us up as targets for violence, persecution, and death. They are fomenting hate deliberately, because they know how to harness it.

By positioning themselves as the leaders of a violent movement against a manufactured enemy, they gain credibility, exposure, and ultimately control over large parts of the American populace. By pretending to be the vanguard of a defense against predators, they become heroes within their movement.

I know it's not the norm, but I hope a fight breaks out at Jerry Springer's funeral.

Ethics bill is good, but It's likely that the only remedy for a compromised SC is to #ExpandTheCourt. Biden & Dems should run on the need for a trifecta & 60 seats in the Senate: The King-Murkowski bill would require the SC to create its own code of conduct for justices *exists for other fed judges. +Require: court to publish that code, appoint someone to hear complaints about potential violations & mandate an annual report on such investigations & actions taken in resp-: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/04/27/clarence-thomas-trips-pro-publica-supreme-court-congress/

SHALL WE PLAY A GAME?

Realised I've never shared Napoleon the feral kitty's story here, so here we go.

This is Napoleon, and this is the story of his nine-month journey from a hungry, desperate feral street cat to snuggly duvet monster. /1 🧵 #cats

so, punch the bigots, fuck the police, pride was a riot and fuck capitalism

and of course
take care of yourselves

Do you draw stuff? You're an artist.

Do you write stuff? You're a writer.

Do you photograph stuff? You're a photographer.

Your level of skill or competence in those fields don't matter, and it certainly doesn't matter whether or not you've been paid to do them. You don't need to say you're an 'aspiring' anything - you *are* the thing.

Do the thing. #WormsOfAffirmation

Can we finally stop talking about that jagoff that was fired from Fox?

If you’ve been on social media for longer than 38 seconds, then you know that you control what you see by muting terms and hashtags and muting, unfollowing or blocking people.

But saying “I don’t want to see anything about [topic] so please stop posting it” isn’t okay. No one, on any platform, is going to tailor their posts to your liking, and they shouldn’t.

B/c it was not enough to silence her voice on the House floor, #Montana Republicans have banished Rep. #ZooeyZephyr from the state legislature for the rest of the session. She will not be permitted to represent her 11,000 constituents who elected her to speak for them. GOP lawmakers misgendered Zephyr & accused her of violating decorum by opposing their anti-trans bills & saying they would have “blood on their hands”. Protesters who supported her were arrested. This is what #fascism looks like.

I'm with Joe and Kamala.
BECAUSE of Joe AND Kamala.
No ifs.
No ands.
No buts.

Moved off mastodon.social today. Working on refollowing everyone. The import from my archive doesn’t appear to be working, so pardon my sudden follows and requests to follow.
