Good US news because I think we all could use some of it:

The Marines are to be withdrawn from LA. The extreme escalation many of us feared did not happen thanks to the people of LA and the soldiers themselves who said "no".

The "Good Trouble Lives On" protests may not have been as big as the previous "Hands Off" and "No Kings" protests (likely due to heat + being planned on a weekday), but still 1.6k protests were held across the USA with thousands joining in with the peaceful protest.

The Trump administration has been ordered to restore $6.2 million in grant funding to nine LGBTQ+ and HIV-related nonprofits. This is fantastic.

Pittsburgh City Council has passed bills to protect its LGBTQ+ citizens.

California has stepped up to partner with and support The Trevor Project. Let's go, Cali!

Another win for California: Reports show that California is powered by two-thirds clean energy. This is a historic first and it keeps getting better!

The ACLU of Louisiana has secured the release of two wrongfully detained Iranian LSU students.

The Republican governor of New Hampshire has defied her party and shot down a book banning bill.

Shareholders have pushed back on corporations' anti-DEI proposals, forcing companies to face the fact that diversity is good for business... And reminds us that the majority does not agree with the removal of DEI, no matter what MAGA wants us to believe.

Since November, 69 of the 110 Supreme Court lawyers tasked with defending the Trump admin's policies have quit.

Don't let anyone tell you that there isn't hope, that there aren't people fighting and working and just as scared and angry as you are. You are not alone. Peaceful protests, contacting reps, and simple non-cooperation is how we sustainably and successfully push back against authoritarianism.

"We're cooked" is the devil talking. Giving up, rolling over, and perpetuating the idea that we've already failed is exactly what MAGA wants. Don't give them the satisfaction. Don't make it easy. Continue to look after each other and support your communities where you can. Keep protesting, keep calling, keep writing, keep loving. The heart is a muscle the size of your fist; we can get through this as long as we continue to stand up and say "no".

For that matter, first degree murder charges also are not determined by how upsetting you personally find the murder but by whether or not it was premeditated. Which is why someone being killed by police during a traffic stop or other interaction is never going to be a first degree murder.

Every 6 months or so the whole internet has to learn all over again that a coroner ruling a death a homicide has exactly zero to do with guilt or the ability to charge someone with murder and only means the death was caused by another person.

I feel like there is just so little consideration for me in every facet of my life that it feels like I’m one particularly bad day away from killing myself

love the library. there's no risk. you can take out a book and go "wow this sucks" and just give it back. and when you do that you're still making the library's Number Go Up so you'll be able to roll the dice on even more books. all for the low low price of free/you already paid for it with your tax money so you might as well use it

OH

Ok you know what? Well played. Might be the best “this character has been a hallucination the whole time” that I’ve seen

Yes this aired 8 years ago but I still don’t want to just blatantly spoil so spoilers for Slasher: Guilty Party

I’ve been really on board with this season right up until the Owen reveal because what do you mean not a single one of these people recognized him

Some observations on book covers

Edit because apparently this needs to be said: the point of a book cover is to tell you what you're about to read and whether or not you want to read it. Following trends in cover design doesn't mean the book is bad or had a bad cover designer. It's visual communication. I've read and enjoyed about half the books featured here.

Man I’m so sad, he was such a talent

Oh my god

Pink News just having to put in that bit about Oliver not being opposed to buddie in an article about Ryan falling down an alt right pipeline is so goddamn stupid there aren’t words for it. I don’t even fault them for bringing up buddie’s popularity, because it is worth mentioning that he/the ship have so many queer fans but like. You could just stop at that!

My mom’s just not gonna do jackshit anymore but smoke cigarettes and fuck around on her phone I guess
