these are the sentences for 8 of the Prairieland federal trial defendants Judge Mark Pittman: Benjamin Song: 100 years Maricela Rueda: 70 years Elizabeth Soto, Meagan Morris: 50 years Judge Reed O'Connor: Zachary Evetts, Savanna Batten, Autumn Hill: 50 years Daniel "Des" Sanchez Estrada: 30 years

they're imprisoning people for decades over a noise demonstration. this isn't getting anywhere near the attention it should be.

Nicole is such a compelling character precisely because she is both pretty sympathetic and absolutely sucks. I think she would be much worse if either you couldn't see how she ended up as toxic as she is or the text tried to brush her horrible toxicity under the rug.

If humanity ends because of a reduction in rape and an increase in women's autonomy then let it fucking choke in the dirt for all I care.

every single person who says incels "need a girlfriend" to "fix them" is saying "women should be sexual resources owed to men" i don't care what they say they meant by it. that's what it means regardless of intent.

This flight made yet another stop, to the Republic of Georgia, that I hope was just for fuel but was probably also a deportation. Meaning people would’ve been shackled for 50+ hours. Longest one I’ve recorded this year. (The longest I’ve ever recorded is 82 hours, in December.)

NEW: Following in Louisiana’s footsteps, Alabama tries to suspend its May congressional primaries to pass a new gerrymander before the midterms. Both states’ response come after SCOTUS ruled to make it far more difficult for minority voters to prove in court that a map is racially discriminatory.

There was a saying in the 1930s labor fights (wobblies, iirc) that ran something like "roll with the punches but never snitch for the guards." It remains the best summary of the very important line between "I have to do this not ideal thing to survive" and "active betrayal for one's own gain."

I saw it noted on Twitter that much of the most repulsive discourse arises from the fact that even among ‘allies’ it is commonly assumed that cis women do not have power over trans women

Another person has died in ICE custody. 33-year-old Denny Adán González died on Tuesday in Georgia. Authorities claim he died by suicide. González is the 18th person to die in ICE custody this year—this is also the 18th week of 2026.

Baldur's gate 2 asked me what my gender was and I decided to go with female

Some people find it very hard to understand the fact that colonialism is innately a genocidal system. There is no “good” or tolerable amount of colonialism. You can’t justify such a structure of violence, exploitation, and eradication. Doesn’t matter where it happens and who does it. It’s genocidal.

This is the single funniest thing I have ever seen Bluesky staff do.

This is such a monumental success. I have tears in my eyes.

Nuremberg 2 Nuremberg harder!!!! Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Anyways the US doesn't even bother to do this shit anymore they just bomb school girls in broad daylight Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

And so they fucking hide it by leaving just enough forest intact so you can't see they're killed the rest of it Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

One of the most hideous things you learn in Oregon really quickly is thar logging companies maintain a buffer along roads so that when you're driving past you can't see the damage they're doing to the forest. Shit looks like a wound on the soul of the world Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Complex speculations about Trump's foreign policy miss the point. On all fronts, at all times, Trump aims to do just one thing: to continuously project strength via violence. He aims to normalize extrajudicially murdering people so that he can eventually kill *you,* as well, should the need arise.

If they are hitting water infrastructure in Iran, that’s a crime against humanity on an enormous scale. I planned to publish something on Iran’s water crisis this week but it obviously got bumped. Iran was already in a critical state pre war, destroying water infrastructure will kill innocent people

Today, US & Israeli forces bombed the Gandhi Children’s Hospital in Iran’s capital of Tehran. Nurses supposedly risked their lives carrying newborns to safety from the rubble. I’m having trouble finding more reporting about this, but here is at least a blurb from Reuters:

For people in Denver who dislike the murder of civilians and children in a pointless war, there is a protest at the capital at 5:30 today. Regardless if you go or not, this war is evil and I implore you to take whatever action to fight against it you can.

Anyway I hope I see this energy for ICE agents soon. Or is terrorising civilian populations suddenly bad when it's happening where Real People (you know, US-Americans) can see and be affected and be harmed?

PSA to y'all: People from the global south can read your soldier knobslobbing and loud insistence above all sense and reason that the people who sign up to operate the orphan crushing machine are not morally culpable for crushing orphans because the wealth of empire was unevenly distributed.

Goalpost already moved from "the military is comprised entirely of the starving orphans from 'Oliver Twist'" to "50k annually isn't middle class, the cost of college justifies bombing people way poorer than that", so that's good to know. Everyone in the US is one bill away from bombing a school!

If thousands of my neighbors just died at the hands of their own government and then my daughter was blown up by some chucklefuck on the other side of the planet claiming to help, I would walk into sea. It is hard to fathom the suffering innocent Iranians are enduring. God have mercy.

Historically, these are TERRIBLE polling numbers for day 1 of a major US use of force, particularly against a well known and disliked adversary. Usually it only goes down from the start

It is horrifying how syncophantic mainstream media have been... WaPo, NYT, where ever you look, nobody calls this illegal war and already committed warcrimes "illegal" and "warcrimes" illegal = "war of choice" "dispute over warpowers" "saw a chance to push" warcrimes = "students under rubble"

Footage from Minab, Iran, shows the aftermath of an Israeli-US strike on a girls' elementary school that reportedly killed more than 50 people.

It feels like the United States has the most solipsistic culture imaginable, with a populace unable to parse global events through any lens other than how they are personally affected.

Columbia student detained today is a day-in-the-life influencer with 100K followers. Her stories right now go from her studying for a Genetics exam in a nicely edited "ten hour study with me at Columbia" video, to a photo of her knees with the caption "dhs illegally arrested me please help"

Begging my comrades in IL to stop this.

"he told me he was afraid he would lose his job if he didn't do this." The banality of evil right there. Someone engaged in the torture and experimentation on another human being doing so because they don't want to lose their job.

This is what the Trump bureau of prisons is doing to trans people, putting them at immediate risk of medical emergency to forcefully detransition them. Unimaginable levels of cruelty.

The following is a thread of people who have volunteered time or resources to help trans folk in Kansas and have consented to be included in this thread If you are trans and in Kansas or if you are helping people who are trans and in Kansas, look through the following quote posts

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

Thread of volunteers and volunteer offered resources here bsky.app/profile/hyen...

Here’s two posts, both Mekka’s and the post he is quoting, discussing how the Nazis used the same document-revoking tactics against trans people, and then ultimately Jews, in the 1930s Also a good opportunity to inform cis people that we were Holocaust victims as well bsky.app/profile/mekk...

If you need help convincing a cisgender person that trans people face a serious threat, here’s a good statistic 400,000 of us have moved to a different state in the last 1.5 years There are maybe about 3-5 million transfolk in the USA? So between 1 in 8 and 1 in 10 of us bsky.app/profile/rach...

Another good resource if you are looking to flee your state is Trans Resistance Network They are privacy conscious and operate nationall www.transresistancenetwork.org

Another good trans relocation org in the Seattle area is Project Open Arms under Traction As with KOI, they are looking for funding and volunteers, especially people willing and able to lend couches for folks If you are fleeing Kansas or Idaho to WA state, try them tractionpnw.org/open-arms/

If you are #trans and looking to flee to the Seattle area from Kansas, I recommend KOI, a 501c3 running out of the state of Washington that helps refugees fleeing to Seattle find temporary housing and resettle koinitiative.org

Finally, a message to PHAROH TRUMP, Gavin Newsom, the owners of the NYT and The Atlantic, JK Rowling, Jesse Singal and all the other bloody handed bandits who sacrifice trans children upon their altar of tyranny for money and power LET MY PEOPLE GO!

If you are trans and in Kansas, @ me If you have resources you think might help, @ me If you want advice about something you are thinking of doing to help, @ me I’ll either help you or try to direct you to someone who can

Trans mutual aid networks are already overloaded and need additional volunteers, not just money If you are have a spare couch to lend please get in contact with Trans Continental Pipeline They may also need cis drivers to extract people safely, so if you are cis and nearby consider offering

Cisgender media institutions currently aren’t covering this crisis. We die in silence I am calling on all trans people to go agitate directly at cis social media influencers, cis institutions, and orgs like churches to get attention on this, surge housing capacity, and just get help in general

I don’t have legal advice for trans people in Kansas yet, but the 14th amendment is supposed to prohibit having a DL seized without due process If there is an injunction, surrendering their DLs could be a mistake. I don’t know though If you have legal advice please reply
