AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

You only have a few days left to tell the FCC that they should stop trying to force broadcasters to classify trans and nonbinary people as inappropriate for children to see on TV skepchick.org/2026/05/the-...

1. A Kansas Judge has struck down the anti-trans "experts" the ADF parades. "Cherry-picked information, conjecture, and research taken out of context," ruled Judge Folsom III. He then established 349 facts that support trans care and reversed the Kansas ban. Subscribe to support our journalism.

1. California has reinstituted its anti-trans athlete policy. In track and Field, the California Interscholastic Foundation will force trans athletes to share the medal and podium with the next highest cisgender athlete. We talk to A.B. Hernandez in our latest piece.

Horrified by the attack on the mosque in San Diego. We live in times of deep political tension. Islamophobic hatred and violence are a reminder of the responsibility on all of us. We need leadership that brings people together, and stands firmly against hatred in all its forms.

The climate crisis is now a public health emergency, according to WHO-backed experts. The science is clear. The consequences are impossible to ignore. Action cannot wait any longer.

I really don't want to center myself around the tragic murder of Juniper Blessing, but I've had so many experiences that, in retrospect, feel like precursors Like, I did the laundry for a trans friend last month, because they were getting targeted threats from someone around their apartment

The Seattle Times published a full obituary for Juniper Blessing. It's a moving tribute to a life well-lived. May she rest in peace, and may UW honour and carry on her legacy. Scholarships named for her might be a good start.

The new Health Secretary, despite previously saying ‘trans women are women’, stood by the line that "the provision of single-sex spaces is on the basis of biological sex."

As a queer who grew up in the 90s, when it was completely normal to call everything you didn't like "gay," I'm begging y'all to push back on the use of homosexuality as an insult, even when it's leveled at people you hate. No, it's not more fitting because they're homophobic bigots. It's never cute.

It took me a year to come to this conclusion, but there is only one word to describe those who spend their lives stoking hatred towards trans people, to distract and draw attention away from their own selfish ends; Evil Rest in Power Juniper Blessing youtube.com/shorts/3qTKS...

Black people are 33% less likely to be hired for graduate-level jobs than white people from a similar background. Now a far-right influencer is suing the charity 10,000 Interns, claiming their schemes supporting Black people are “anti-white”. Help us push back https://goodlaw.social/zlpp

Major news! A state court in Kansas has just blocked the states gender affirming care ban! Nobody is at our desk right now so we can’t draft up a story but you all deserve to know this incredible news. assets.aclu.org/live/uploads...

A toxic combination of low wages and high bills is crushing this country. Today is Starmer's last chance to set out a plan that will end Rip-Off Britain: rent controls, nationalising water, freezing energy prices, and taxing wealth. No more half measures.

I’m a big supporter of trans actors playing Achilles and this book specifically for uhhhh reasons Unrelated, does anyone have 120 million dollars? 👀

John Oliver on the Supreme Court: "It was a 6-3 decision in the case of White People vs. Everybody — and you’ll never guess who they ruled in favor of”

Friends I'm dropping the video about my arrests in a few minutes, which lays out the case that I have been specifically targeted by SPD for exposing systemic corruption, which aligns with rightwing extremism Join my premiere now, or check it out later, ~53m www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vp8...

I don’t care if it’s corporate marketing, I like that the cunty murderbot said trans fucking rights

I was floored when it tried pawing at the cats on the screen, thinking they were real.😂

so cool when you’re just sitting in a place and then your cat comes over to purr and present their tiny little forehead for kisses, that’s what life is all about

There are survivors missing from the public Epstein narrative. People speak about “the victims” as though the public has seen the full picture. They haven’t. Some names were elevated. Others disappeared from coverage almost entirely. That is worth paying attention to.

People in the US really need to pay attention to what's happening with Palestine Action in the UK. Even if we get out from under Trump, we should expect to see these tactics deployed in the US, unless something truly transformative happens.

Reform want to round up migrants and detain them indefinitely in areas that don’t vote for them. Yet for most of our media, it’s those marching for Palestine who are creating hatred & fear. These disgusting plans are an affront to democracy — and must be fiercely opposed.

I have referred Sky News and GMB to Ofcom over disgraceful and baseless smears that have been made about me. There is nothing antisemitic about supporting the people of Palestine. I will continue to speak out against racism, apartheid and genocide. novaramedia.com/2026/05/05/j...

Starmer's resignation is not enough. What needs booting out is the politics he represents: corporate greed, anti-migrant rhetoric and endless war. My piece for Tribune. tribunemag.co.uk/2026/05/star...

Palantir has been granted “unlimited access” to NHS patient data. This is the same company that is involved in mass surveillance and genocide. We did not consent to this. Get Palantir out of our NHS, now.

"In an unprecedented move in a criminal damage case, the judge, Mr Justice Johnson, ruled before the first trial that there appeared to be a “terrorist connection” to the offences – even though the protest took place before Palestine Action was proscribed – but this could not be told to the jury."

I don't have a lot to say about this one. Cain's little heart was cute. People are weird as fuck about trans people. It was something the world needs at this point to bring everything back to reality. Just let people have bodies. Let people be beautiful. Confident. Artistic. Vulnerable. People.

Well this is... an odd take. The Greens, famously pro-war?! He's resisting moving to the left by pretending that Greens are actually dreadful hawkish right-wingers?

A far-right influencer is suing the charity 10,000 Interns, claiming their trailblazing schemes supporting Black people are “anti-white”. We’re pushing back:

Once again, Keir Starmer used his family for cynical purposes. Nobody cares, Keir. Stop telling us about your family - and go and spend more time with them instead. Which you can achieve by resigning as Prime Minister.

Well this aged terribly

While the Seattle Police Department is laser focused on traffic crime unhoused sweeps, and ‘Antifa’, a Trans student was murdered I’m so tired of being the focus of the supposed ‘Public Safety Experts’ while the community around me is being targeted for death @throughthestatic.bsky.social

People cannot afford babies. Make survival and raising a family affordable, and more people will choose to have children. It really is that simple.

Keir Starmer thinks his problem is communication. The style isn't the problem (although that is crap, to be fair). It's the substance.

If that's the speech Starmer needed to save his premiership, he is sunk. Equating the Greens with Reform will infuriate voters who abandoned Labour. The man who kicked pensioners and disabled people says: "We got the big political decisions right". Incoherent and dull.

Ofcom’s finally investigating GB News over its failings to challenge Donald Trump’s false claims about climate change, Islam and immigration in an interview last year. But if regulation takes this long to come, is it really regulation? https://bit.ly/4u6jN2I

Someone describing themselves as a "debating champion" is not, in itself, evidence of being well-informed. It is unsurprising to see another resignation from Reform followed by a move to a similarly incoherent, shit-show party. Political Custard is a top-notch channel 👍

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

🎉 398 new Green councillors over the weekend. 💚Across the country, people are voting for change. 🫵Help us build on this momentum - join the Green Party today⤵️

Yeah, a real fucking MYSTERY how Reform managed it, isn’t it? The press CONSTANTLY lap at the balls of that dodgy prick. The result? His billionaire funded online psy op goes mainstream, the illusion of mass consensus is created and then idiot voters feverishly kiss the hand that will beat them.

👀 Pretty remarkable stat! The Green Party got 1.95 million votes at the local elections (excluding mayoral!) Approx 1 million more people (!!!) than best record in 2023. Join.greenparty.org.uk
