The next Supreme Court term, there will be a case from a shop owner who refuses to serve Black customers.

The far right is trying to undo the entire Civil Rights Movement. All of it.

So forgiving PPP loans is capitalism — but forgiving student loans is socialism?

If you're cis, I'd like you to read this article and learn that Missouri is about to enact a full ban on transition healthcare for transgender people. The deadline is April 27.

No cisgender person I've shared this with has had any idea that this is a ban, not a regulation - the requirements are impossible to meet.

I would also ask that you share this information with three other cis people today, preferably ones in or near #Missouri .

Thank you. (Update: The ban is temporarily restrained until July 24, with a new hearing about a preliminary injunction on July 20. The ban cannot be implemented until then. But the Missouri GOP is determined to ban youth trans care and sports participation, and keep allowing literal children to get married.) (Update late May: The Missouri legislature ended trans healthcare coverage for ALL minors, all people on Medicaid, and all incarcerated people. This is an absolute disaster - it means that all anyone needs to do to restrict trans healthcare for paying adults is to declare us criminals - but it is at least not a flagrant violation of the lawmaking process like Bailey's "emergency rule" was.)

Emergency Rule Seriously Restricts Trans Health Care For Adults, Minors in Missouri

Via a sweeping emergency rule, the state's Attorney General has made it nearly impossible for trans people in Missouri to receive standard medical treatment.

Those were the days.

Today is the Day of Remembrance for the Japanese American community. 81 years ago today, when I was just a boy of four, FDR signed Executive Order 9066, setting in motion the evacuation of people of Japanese descent from the West Coast and our long years of internment inside ten barbed wire prison camps.

We must never let such a thing happen again in America, and and we must strive everywhere to prevent the forced relocation and mass incarceration of innocent people. #NeverForget #NeverAgain
