One of conservatives top priorities is denying kids the message that they have control over their own bodies and their own sexuality because that makes it harder for pedocons like Trump to get away with raping them

I think all the time about the interviewer who asked Meryl Streep “how did you not know about Weinstein” and she was like “I didn’t know because he NEEDED me not to know” it isn’t a character flaw to have been deceived by someone who is a deceit expert cultivating the cover of your faith & goodwill

and even if someone thinks "well I don't like/look at porn so why should it be a priority for me?" it's important to remember that when christofascists say "porn" they also mean age-appropriate comprehensive sex education, media with queer/trans people in it, and picture books about gay penguins.

Hey! Remember Republicans saying "Obamacare will make death panels to kill your grandma!"? Then you should probably go check out chapter 14 of the Project 2025 manifesto. Because every Conservative/Republican accusation is a confession.

Hello social medias...
You may not be aware a major Cat 5 hurricane struck an area that normally doesn't get them. The eye passed directly over Carriacou and Petit Martinique.
The devastation is tremendous. The need is great.

Focusing on presidential swing states is good and all but crucial shit is happening all over the nation at the state level and it is nearly impossible to go wrong getting involved anywhere a trans care ban or abortion ban has come down.

This is correct (from @melissagiragrant.com ). There's a bunch of stuff about "helping the poor poor divorced fathers" and outlawing the word "caregiver" and punishing single moms (as well as people living with a partner, another abolished word). WOMEN (a monolith) are to be at home baking bread.

reading both abbott and patrick’s comments closely, neither are really denying biden’s claims. the state has to declare an emergency first, it’s not the white house’s responsibility to chase them around to make them do it, which is what both abbott’s and patrick’s comments suggest

Trump doesn’t want Americans to know what Republicans stand for. Finally, reason from the Editorial board.
The former president wants the 2024 GOP platform to be anodyne, but don’t be fooled. He has an extreme agenda.

Project 2025 deportations will require violence. Period. The agencies involved are staffed w/people who will either 1) enthusiastically do so, or 2) go along w/no protest. We know this bc when told to take kids from parents & deport mom/dad w/no way to find kids--horrific--they executed seamlessly.

Full quote from ex-ICE director Tom Homan: "Trump comes back in January... I will run the biggest deportation force this country has ever seen. They ain’t seen shit yet. Wait until 2025.” Tonight in Florida Trump pledged to bring Homan back. Homan, BTW, is a listed Project 2025 contributor.

That was the question I was actually trying to ask (clumsily) by saying they might be "produced" - thanks for translating! Since they're open pseudonyms, it may not matter. I'd be buying those tickets under any of those names, since I know who they are. 😁

Only one? What happens if you've already published under multiple pseudonyms? @seananmcguire.bsky.social has books under Mira Grant and A. Deborah Baker in addition to her own name, and I can see all of them potentially being produced. Does she have to discard one pseudonym?
