We’ve had enough. We’ve joined over 100 organizations and leaders to demand that @nytimes stop printing inaccurate and harmful misinformation about transgender people and issues. Today we are outside of the Times building to send a clear message. glaad.org/nytimes

Saying “this doesn’t happen to people like me very often” when a Black woman hasn't won that award since 1999 is crazy lol

I clicked the link to the leak and the first song on the Beyonce album is just her saying "So, you just couldn't wait, could you?" And then she read my address back to me before the song started. I'll see y'all in prison

Wasn’t ready for this today—today we lost a titan, an icon. She was a writer who made us feel seen all the way down to our bones. When I say rest in power, it’s with the knowledge of all the power she’s given to the rest of us. Keep empowering, empress. 💔🙏🏿

Millennials hold 4.8% of all wealth. There are now 40-year-old Millennials. At the same age, Gen X had 9% of wealth. Boomers had 21% The largest generation in history did what the system told them to do and became the most-educated in history. Now they're the poorest in history
