If any of these Senators 👇👇👇are yours, CALL NOW and tell them not to cave. On the heels of Tuesday’s election results, literally thinking about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. This is why Mamdani won.

Who's this guy getting Mira Nair to direct his music videos

I like to think none of them were sexually enslaved or brainwashed. They simply voluntarily decided to reorganise as sex traffickers, and their unfree labour also mediates a profitable sideline in sales of badge engineered power tools. The “Brainwashing” is unrelated.

Good Game: Spawn Point but it’s entirely concerned with weird indie games

Hey gamers, without access to food stamps this month is going to be harder than it usually should. If you can share and donate I would greatly appreciate it. ko-fi.com/dare2dream

nobody here is gonna give you permission to kill yourself dummy. and if you’re online asking strangers for permission then I don’t think you want to die as much as you say you do.

if you go online and request suicide by cop and then you get really steamed that nobody wants you dead and they just find you annoying then I don’t think you’re actually suicidal I think you’re probably just lonely and understimulated. Join a D&D group?

And if the House comes back into session, Johnson will be pressured to seat Grijalva or deal with a public grilling on why he won't. And once she's seated, we're back to the Epstein files. Or they can try to keep the government closed indefinitely and eventually crash the stock market.

An “ally” is something you let *other* people label you.

They want to eradicate trans people. Denying their humanity is a step in that direction. Any elected who doesn't take a stand to protect the trans community will have blood on their hands. Anyone who calls this a "purity test" is complicit. That this is even being debated is monstrous.

Well that's a dramatic non-sequitur

Magnus Carlsen press conference, announcing his intention to capture a king by the end of the year. No mere checkmate, full capture. The holy grail of chess. The four minute mile.

It was inevitable that the 2024 electorate would choose a Republican president even though the 2020 electorate chose a Democrat president. Older people are more conservative.

I need for Andrew Cuomo to follow in the footsteps of prominent right-wing French philosopher Dominique Venner, who got so mad about the possibility of same-sex partnerships (not even marriage!) being recognized that he went to Notre Dame and shot himself in the head.

I'm calling it now. Zohran will be mayor of New York within a year, perhaps even earlier.

The last time New York had a decent mayor was Giuliani, over two decades ago. Say what you will about him (you younger people only know what's become of him after leaving office), but he really did clean up the city. He oversaw the removal of its two biggest eyesores.

my hot take on GTA vi is that it's not going to be different enough from previous rockstar games to be meaningfully new and people won't like that. also it's going to be flamed for a bunch of culture war reasons and not valid ones like "rockstar hasn't done anything new since 2014"

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

Lawyers make fun of juries as much as politicians make fun of voters but when the time came to push back against autocracy guess who folded immediately and who hasn't

Apparently one of my senators, Pauline Hanson, skipped parliament to go speak at CPAC US at Mar-a-Lago. Dear US Americans, please keep her

Truly blessed that this post has broken the immediate heritage bubble we're in and is now doing the numbers in the trans and furry communities. We know our audience.

SCOTUS has granted a stay in Trump v. Orr, the trans passport case, meaning that the government will be able to once again deny gender marker changes to trans passport applicants. This is a terrible decision with horrifying consequences for trans folks. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

It’s the same reason the shutdown has now hit a record 36 days— there was no plan for this other than “and then the Democrats cave.” They never considered something as simple and obvious as “well, what if they don’t” because, well, why would they?

Ok did Vance grope Erika’s ass onstage or did I see a deepfake

and now it’s time to see what Charlie Kirk has to say about Zohran Mamdani winning the NYC mayoral election. you’ve been awfully quiet, Charlie! something stuck in your throat?

A court in Brussels recently ruled that fairness in sports includes being fair to trans women. www.google.com/url?q=https:...

LRT me (Communist girlfailure, dialectical materialist, theorypilled as fuck, pathologically morally obsessive, drained of all humanity) and my girlfriend (socdem white lady with an abiding dislike of injustice and the capacity for empathy and love)

Communist hunks - it is your solemn duty to introduce liberal white women to the Immortal Science of Marxist-Leninism.

they call it jury nullification and you’re hearing it more and more. people say you can’t, you can’t nullify, but juries say, stop us. it’s incredible really. can you believe it? jury nullification.

straight-up jury nullification. this guy did it, confessed to it, and the jury instructions explicitly said that if he did it intentionally, it was assault.

Disagree that Teen Vogue's politics coverage wasn't focused on investigating the administration.

Why do I get the feeling that this particular AI will find Lidia Thorpe less lendable than, say, me

As always, Nora is a delight

someone got indicted on the basis of “transporting antifa materials” for allegedly transporting a box of ZINES THEY’RE PROSECUTING PEOPLE FOR DOMESTIC TERRORISM OVER ZINES

I was acting as a union member and concerned employee when I questioned Stan Duncan, well within my legal rights. I don't love pointing to my identity, but the company saying that I was behaving "aggressively" when I was calmly asking questions feels like a clear transphobic dog whistle.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

When I talk about relationship OCD, I don’t just mean with my girlfriend. It affects all my relationships. I find reasons not to be close or intimate. I silently judge many of you for being openly the person I actually am on the inside, not the person I pretend to be on the internet.

Has this been done yet?

It true (stolen from Facebook)

I keep saying!!! Mike Simmons rules!!! If I were in IL-9 he'd have my vote.

Russ Douthat being thrown out of polite society onto the sidewalk with a push just slightly harder than necessary; he doesn’t quite fall but he stumble-runs for 3-4 steps. “Watch your step, sir,” the guard murmurs in a slight mid-Atlantic accent.

Posing the question should get you politely but firmly ejected from society by a large man dressed like an usher at the opera. He just appears with a tight smile and quietly suggests that it would be best if you don’t cause a scene.

Extremely desperate for help, please help if you can

shares on this would be a tremendous help!!!

v*nmo still giving me trouble and i still need $25 in the next 10hrs to keep a roof over my head another day, and tbh don’t feel safe sleeping until i do! can two people give $12-$15 so i can safely clear this and get some sleep? 🤠 ko-fi.com/katimcf

Hey friends who have Crohn's, ulcerative colitis or coeliac disease: did you find that treating your physical health symptoms also relieved your mental health symptoms? I'm getting screened for an IBD and I'm wondering if it's also affecting my OCD
