Happy trans day of visibility! I’ve been on t for ~4 years; I’m probs best categorized as a nonbinary woman. idk if that’s trans, but I also gleefully do not give a shit about labeling my body, gender, or sexuality! my ideal answer to all of those is Forever Furious About Arbitrary Categorization 🤷🌈

To do this, anti-trans lawmakers in Kansas moved fast to change the law, overrode the governor’s veto, and pushed for the legal changes to go into effect nearly immediately. That kind of power—to void gender on official documents, to compel gender conformity—is terrifying and it will not stop here.

how much more actual nazi shit has to happen before people are ready to wake up and fight back? immigrants, houseless people, disabled people, and trans people can’t wait any longer!!!

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

We are at a crossroads. The Police Union can choose to stand with Portlanders, to stand against fascism, or they can continue to obstruct policies that would reign the feds in because they see a kinship with corrupt law enforcement and not with the good people of our city. There is a choice here.

The force that teargassed workers, families, children, and elders who were peacefully protesting is the same force that has kidnapped sick kids and murdered two Minneapolis neighbors on our streets. We can’t appeal to the moral conscience of a system that has none. We have to win.

This isn't getting enough national attention with everything else going on: ICE deploys tear gas on a peaceful march in Portland which included many children. This outrageous behavior prompted the Portland Mayor to call on all ICE employees to resign. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

RFK Jr. Demonstrates How To Remove Tapeworm By Scooting Ass Across Carpet

tbh i’ve never really recovered from the stuff a few years ago that jaded me about wrestling, but once a year i set my bitchy feelings aside and pay attention to wrestling, so I can have some betchy feelings instead for @lgbtringpod.bsky.social !!! it’s wrestle kingdom babey! #njwk20

Another good time to remind people that “tear gas” is a term of copaganda that police, the military, and its manufacturers use to obscure that it is a dangerous chemical weapon internationally banned for use even in warfare.

italian americans need to learn history: Columbus Day was a bone thrown to Italian immigrants so they wouldn’t protest anti-Italian violence. the choice of a genocidal monster was meant to include us in whiteness/white supremacy as an italian american, fuck columbus, fuck columbus day, & fuck y’all

I keep seeing videos of violent arrests and police actions in Portland on social media. All of them have been from 2020. 💥Please, for our safety, if you see some violent shit from Portland, check the date. The admin is trying to build a case to invade. That shit has NOT been happening in 2025💥

Not only does this story get a number of basic facts wrong, it doesn’t take time to actually explore why Portlanders elected these folks. Coming in with a pre-baked PDX story to fit a NYT narrative about NYC is harmful, especially at this moment.

general strike now! we have to start thinking of ourselves as americans for real— we cannot accept this happening to our fellow americans

When your custom character appears in a cut scene

Liberals on the internet will really be like "you believe in direct action? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, winning an election," and then not win any elections.

I have been saying this!!! notably, franco used the military to attack Spanish citizens in Spanish urban areas, which were more liberal/resistant to his fascist takeover. he said of Madrid that he would rather destroy it than allow leftists to have it, and ultimately besieged the city for 3 years.

I don’t want to hear anymore “Portland is dying” narrative or vague complaints about “ANTIFA” as the clarion call for action in the city. All of that led to Trump targeting us. Groups like People for Portland, associated right-wing media ecosystem, and political opportunists own this.

We don't have 500 followers on here, yet. But we're breaking our silence to alert all the cool kids that we'll be screening this as a special late night show on Thursday, Oct. 2. Tickets on sale soon at cstpdx.com.

again, what is interesting to me about this stuff — beyond the obvious fact that what trump wants is propaganda — is that it is grounded in a political theory which holds trump to be the sovereign will of the nation, who can impose his demands on every aspect of the nation's society

MARTIAL LAW INSTATED IN THE NATION’S CAPITAL, PLUS TIK TOK’S FAVORITE SUMMER SKINCARE ROUTINE !!!! ┻━┻︵ \(°□°)/ ︵ ┻━┻

i want to say something to all my haters: i’ve since grown as a person

i only use chatgpt in professional contexts, but sometimes i just free associate about unrelated topics. just like ‘this is like that one episode of m.a.s.h.!’ with zero context. if i gotta be free labor to train this thing’s concept of human intelligence, i’m giving the fuckin computer my adhd too

Everybody knows what’s happening, everyone can see what’s happening, and everybody can see who the people are who are trying to make it happen.

what’s the best half-step key-change in popular music and why is it the one in “man in the mirror”?

"For those corporations, it pays to create an impression that AI is now a fact of modern life and to get states to adopt that mode of thinking." That AI is inevitable, is "a discourse industry is saying about itself.” - @matthiasellis.com

The opening of concentration camps on US soil, along with building cop cities and the ICE gestapo, will be used to imprison large segments of the population who resist the fascist coup. People are not reacting fast enough. Urgent disruptive direct action like general strikes required now.

the right hasn’t forgotten how stephen colbert used his platform in the past—maybe that has something to do with cbs ending the late show. but it seems like the media has forgotten that when given a platform, he also dunked hard on the dc press’s utter spinelessness. 🍿 www.c-span.org/clip/white-h...

what the fuck are we doing if this is the state of ICE “protest”?? I’m beyond angry that the takeaway from 2020 seems to be “show up at the same place every night to get tear gassed.” why do you think we did that? if we aren’t useful/listening to directly impacted people, we are part of the problem.

if andrew cuomo hates socialism so much why did he choose to be publicly owned

damn, the news is so bad and so constant that i hadn’t even heard that ppb murdered another black man. article notes that this in-custody death will not be investigated. fuck each and every officer and employee of ppb. i don’t call cops pigs bc it’s insulting to pigs.

I know this because I DID the research and reported on it for LCRW (@lcrw.bsky.social) this past March. The fact is: Resch directly oversaw the PPB's response to the first weeks of George Floyd protests. Do you know what she authorized her officers to do? HIDE THEIR NAMES AND BADGE NUMBERS.

NEW: Bishop Rojas of San Bernardino has dispensed his Diocese from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass due to ongoing ICE raids.

i’m no boat expert, but my armchair theory is that when you have more money you can buy more things.

idk a ton about the stock market, so how ISN’T this a pattern of naked market manipulation??? he announces threats—> markets dip —> rich people buy more stocks —> he announces “”””deals”””” —> markets recover —> rich people make hella money are there reputable outlets writing about this?

lmao @ the times publishing a Serious Economy Understander chart with one column labeled “previously threatened”

Please do not meme yourself into thinking that communist countries defunded their police forces.

back to fascistposting i can’t wait to march these motherfuckers out their mcmansions in the dead of night to face the people 🥰😊🥰

I think I may just post about wrestling today, since we’re getting a freaking G1 final/Wrestle Kingdom main event on a Wednesday night! #AEWDynamite #wrestlesky

"SCOTUS allows Trump admin to deport people to random countries with no notice" Honestly still can't believe that I wrote this headline today, let alone that the U.S. Supreme Court's majority did so.

This is why, when it comes to politics, cultural studies and political psychology are basically the whole ballgame. We have a huge number of people who are socially and emotionally incapable of being comfortable in a free and open society and we can't solve that by capitulating to their comforts.

If you were too young in 1993, here is what Clinton told the American people: 1) Iraq attempted to assassinate an American president 2) His missile strikes were only against military targets 3) That we are "sending a message" to Iraq, and this will prevent any further escalations. All lies.

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot. They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

No one should be silent right now. I do not support Trump’s reckless, escalatory strikes on Iran. They endanger millions and push us closer to a global war. We need elected leaders who will say it plainly: we do not consent to endless war. We choose peace, justice, and diplomacy.

Scientists and researchers understand that sex is a multidimensional category. Donald Trump’s rigid definitions undermine their ability to do their jobs.

HEY! take a few brief minutes to sign this and share it around! it’s so very close to meeting the 8,000 signatures needed but let’s go WAY beyond that. come on portland! show our councilors how you really feel and tell ice to get the fuck out of our city. campaigns.organizefor.org/petitions/re...

this bizarre fiction that urban/rural america are nothing alike has always been a right-wing wedge. it’s ridiculous to most americans—the US is huge, and we have loved ones/roots all over. but it’s especially stupid to keep banking on after the reddest red places turned out to protests this weekend.

Please keep your eyes on Portland Oregon right now There's a riot declared near the ice facility in Portland and DHS agents have pulled lethal guns on protesters with live ammo at least four times the last half hour

It was never about going after “undocumented criminals” and “undocumented illegals” and people who didn’t come here the ‘right way’. They are removing LEGAL DOCUMENTATION from immigrants, who did go through the process. The “right” way. It is racism, and always was, racism.
