It's not a coincidence that B&N scheduled their pre-order sale right when indie bookstores are trying to promote Indie Bookstore Day. Anyway, shop at indie bookstores! B&N doesn't even let their retail employees sit down!

Ruchell Magee was unjustly captured in 1962 and given trumped-up charges. He is now 83 years old, forced to suffer mentally and physically due to the poor conditions inside CA’s prison camps. See our link to provide support and action so that he can be released! #freeruchellmagee

I've been tracking anti-transgender legislation for 3 years. I often get asked in DMs, "I live in x state, should I flee/transition/come out?" So I've decided to make a risk assessment for future anti-trans legislation. Here is a map, with an explainer thread. 🧵

Abortion bans aren't pro-life. What is pro-life is investing in child care, health care, affordable housing, and so much more.
