    I am so grateful that I saw Dolly perform once. She was absolutely incredible. One of the most amazing concerts I have ever been to. I think she changed into at least 2 different bejeweled crystal-spangled outfits during the show, played many instruments, and had more energy on stage than I have ever had in a single day of my life. Her voice was ethereal. What an icon. 80 was too young. ๐Ÿ’”

    We built a new website for a small, under-resourced global nonprofit, and the site launch is delayed because the U.S. state department flagged them for violation of the DEI executive order. They have to remove all &quot;Diversity Equity and Inclusion&quot; language from their site before we can launch it. THE FASCISM IS REAL &amp; BEING ACTIVELY ENFORCED in case you weren&#39;t sure

    why no, we will not support your transphobic conversion-therapy-adjacent WordPress site, no matter how much you attempt to obscure that content absolutely no

    Happy Trans Day of Visibility! It sucks so much to be trans and/or nonbinary in This Time! If you are looking for a trans woman to whom to gift a pizza in honor of the great Mira Bellwether, then I suggest my wife @cass because she is hella trans &amp;amp; does so much for others &amp;amp; she fucking loves pizza. (I&amp;#39;m an enby but I promise I won&amp;#39;t eat any of it, it can all be for her.) #TDoV #TDoV26 #MiraBellwether ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ๐Ÿ•

    RE: https://front-end.social/@hanabel/116323901322417140 Also, it&amp;#39;s entirely okay if you aren&amp;#39;t comfortable being visibly trans or nonbinary right now. It&amp;#39;s completely understandable. Sending love to the trans and nonbinary folks out there, whether you&amp;#39;re out, or not, or somewhere in between. #TDoV

    Once again LinkedIn, I would sooner spend the rest of my life in a dark, dank cave than use Clear to verify myself on LinkedIn

    The number of verified profiles on LinkedIn amazes me, all those people used Clear to get a verification badge!
