To all the haters out there, the student loan pause was GOOD for the economy. Proof of what we knew all along is in the data. Loans were NOT being paid in normal times. Resuming repayment isn't going to change that. It's going to cause harm and default. 🧵⬇️

current and recent #queer / #trans law students: can you share what kinds of experiences you’re having at your law school? what are the issues? what are the ways your administration or student body is showing support? what’s the vibe? what would help? dm is fine!

People think that being trans in a Blue state means you're safe. But no one is safe when there is rising authoritarianism with a focus on gender identity. Thanks to @NPRMichel for having this important conversation on @AmanpourCoPBS @translashmedia

The NWS has confirmed that only a trace of snow fell at Central Park (NYC) today before the changeover to rain. This does not qualify as measurable snowfall. As a result, today will be the 322nd consecutive day without measurable snowfall in NYC.

"Would this ban pride? Probably." Arkansas SB43 has passed the Senate 29-6. It would ban "drag" but also defines drag as any transgender person performing. Even dancing at Pride may be considered illegal under this bill. Subscribe to support my work. erininthemorn.substack.com/p/would-this-b…
