Call your senators and your house rep. Make a stink by being clear that abandoning trans adults and children is a no-go. Cis people, call and be loud for us. We are tired.

This last month had been a lot and I just realized that in the chaos I missed the application deadline for my biggest winter show 🤦‍♂️

I want a Star Trek series about political drama around the founding of the federation with the andorians and telluriuns and Vulcans and humans while earth recovers from nuclear winter and people leave on cobbled together spaceships forming wildcat colonies like the ones they constantly find in TOS

Unreal: The US attorney for the eastern district of Virginia has now resigned after Trump threatened to fire him for failing to find sufficient evidence to prosecute NY AG Letitia James. Reupping this piece/thread on how appallingly corrupt this all is:

is this good

Something to keep in mind if your threat model includes the possibility that your phone will be seized by ICE. techcrunch.com/2025/09/18/i...

Elderly family could maybe not all get cancer at the same time. This is getting out of hand

In case some have forgotten. A sign from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

if your mental image of the word "wizard" is anything that would NOT be airbrushed on the side of a kickass van, someone has failed you

Every time I see Trump claim vast powers over economic policy that the Constitution does not give him, often only for the Supreme Court to step in and go 'seems legit,' I can't help but think about the Court carrying on as if canceling some student loan debt was shocking executive overreach

I believe this to my core. They're using trans people as a test case to dismantle individual rights in the US.

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

It tried to warn us and we didn’t listen.

Yeah, hard nope on this.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Oh look, the thing everyone said would happen is trying to happen

one of the clearest signs you're dealing with a strong and principled political movement is when they want to make it illegal to make fun of them

The Dept of Education is now accepting comments on a proposed rule that would overhaul Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and make it too expensive for students to go into work that threatens the Trump administration Folks have til *Sept. 17* to oppose the changes ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

As I've said before, pre-Discordian images of Eris are varied, interesting, and more numerous than you might think. But are they hot?? A special conclave of Erisian monks spent five days and nights callously objectifying OVER 20 images of Our Lady of Confusion and THE RESULTS ARE IN A THREAD 🧵⬇️

Welp this is horrific. "Data broker owned by major airlines sells passenger info to US govt for warrantless surveillance" is already a sentence where each 2-4 word phrase is worse than the last, but then fuck knows what other shit said govt is going to get up to *w/* that data now that they have it

Democrats could easily capitalize on this, but I fear they’re too afraid of being seen as “on the same side” as culturally-conservative farmers.

www.wired.com/story/charli... Shout-out WIRED for actually reporting on all the people finding out that jokes are illegal if you make them at the expense of Charlie "Stone Gay People To Death" Kirk.

I for one am shocked, shocked I say, at the idea that the fascist regime is trying to take the biggest authoritarian cookie out of the authoritarian cookie jar, especially after they were repeatedly told that they were at risk of spoiling their dinner.

This is an archived government report that found that “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists.” It existed yesterday and is gone today.

Happy Friday 🌭 #haileris

What will happen is the same thing that happened when it turned out the Trump shooter was a disaffected young white man. No corrections, no apologies, and within a month at most, they’ll be back to pretending that it was a radical trans leftist. Kirk was only ever a tool to them. So is his death.

become friction like a single grain of sand grinding mechanisms of hate to their halt flow like a single drop of water corroding its very gears to their stillness burn like a single flying ember starting the smallest fires bringing down the whole wretched works

Let the record show that @tinakotek.bsky.social coulda done this, and Oregon could've then been the one to set this benchmark, but instead she spent the summer trying, and failing, to kill Multnomah County's voter-approved Universal Pre-K program.

Y'all need to start respecting the quirked up white girls casting hexes. www.jezebel.com/we-paid-some...

please do not post things you don’t want to see on The Free Press and Fox News later this evening

rewatching this episode of the Twilight Zone where a man becomes obsessed with getting advice from a demonic fortune telling machine until he can no longer make any decisions without consulting the machine. for no reason in particular.

still a better pick than Newsom

The belief that poverty and homelessness are about "individual choices" didn't arise on its own. It was manufactured through decades of messaging designed to protect the policies and interests that create mass precarity. As this new poll shows, that propaganda campaign has been wildly successful.

It’s really interesting and disappointing to see the way that certain people react when I put up boundaries around myself being the recipient of their anger and hard feelings about other things.

The playthrough should be harder. Like the Legend of Zelda.

#BREAKING - Major development in #StopCopCity case

I'm a grown-ass woman and I don't ask for much out of life, just a comfortable life, a safe world to live in, and to find a Fraggle hole in my wall

Captain Ahab: All men live enveloped in the whale-lines. All are born with halters round their necks; but it is only when caught in the swift, sudden turn of death, that mortals realize the silent, subtle, ever-present perils of life. Dr: Do you think the Zoloft's helping?

Tested the scrying milk last night, all ready to strain and bottle.

"I got Ghosted!" "Oh someone never texted you again?" "No but I did feel a loving presence while Iwas making pottery and also Whoopi Goldberg showed up.”

Okay, I showed up. Can work be done now?

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

I keep seeing kids in their late teens and early 20s romanticize the year 2016. “It’s 2016 and you’re listening to this song…” Guys, nobody liked 2016. Until 2020, it was considered one of the worst years anyone had ever seen. Everyone cool died. It was fucking miserable. Stop it.
