Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh filibustered every bill in this year's session in opposition to a bill that would ban medical care for transgender y

Nebraska hasn't passed a single bill this year because one lawmaker keeps filibustering in protest of an anti-trans bill: 'I will burn this session to the ground'

Damn. I thought she was just gonna up and make a fuss and her swearing to protect trans kids was a bunch of empty words (again).

But no. She's one-woman filibustering the entire Nebraska legislature into a complete standstill until they agree to protect the rights of trans kids.

She was 100% serious when she said she'd make it as painful for everyone as it is for trans kids. Gahddamn.

This is why small elections matter. She's not a country wide senator or president or shit. She's just a local official representing District 6 in Nebraska.

This is why the "smaller" elections between the presidential elections matter.

Look, I want to believe that Hanamusa Shipping taking off the way it did wasn’t 100% due to the good art and the fact that an animation professional started it, but because it feels so effortless and comforting.

Lots of ships want to focus on the drama of the relationship, or the youthful aspects of them, but this ship that literally had no chance at screentime speaks so much about what we value in a relationship.

We have two adult women, with their lives made, getting together over a happenstance. One of them has known nothing but heartbreak and loss, but she remains confident and hard-working, another one is a single young mother, who hasn’t been presented as something other than a mom, but we can tell her values by how she raised the lead character of the show. Their energies compliment each other because they both nurture each other’s needs: Jessie needs stability and healing, and Delia needs a partner who can spice up her life.

They’re characters we judge by how they revolve in Ash’s life, but bringing them together is not just funny at thought, but it allows them to reclaim their narratives and exist and expand outside of their initial roles.

I want to believe this ship took off because it made us want closure for these characters, and because it illustrates perfectly the goals of a working relationship: Growth and Comfort 💝

Rewatched The Good Place for the first time since s4 dropped and. Oh my god. The Good Place said "people are a result of their environment but we always have a moral responsibility to be better" and The Good Place said "every day the world gets a little more complicated and it gets a little harder to be good" and The Good Place said "even in the face of total nihilism, when nothing you do will matter, you still have to at least try. Because trying is better than the alternative" and The Good Place said "if you have bills to pay and shit to deal with you don't have time or energy to become a better person" and then The Good Place really said "people get better when they get external love and support. How can we hold it against them when they don't " and THEN The Good Place really said "no one is irredeemable. Everyone can try to be better today than they were yesterday" AND THEN! The Good Place said "Heaven is just enough time with the people that you love" OH MY FUCKING GOD.

Good Morning! I’m Salty.

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

eventually you realize you don’t want to die. you just don’t want to live the life you’re living. and slowly you try to create a life you want to live. just gotta start there.
