!! there's now a wiki page for reactionary centrism en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactio...

The recent trans rights cases--Skrmetti on health care, the shadow docket passport order, and the pending athletics cases--should be seen in this context, as vehicles for chipping away at the promise of equal protection

Oh, it's just incredible and effortless how Kristen Stewart dismantles and diagnoses the pathology and ego of Brando (and... well, all the dudes in Hollywood) here. www.youtube.com/shorts/_h-iK... There's just so many parallels to tech in this. And I'm so glad she's solid in herself to just SAY it.

He's trying to butter them up for when he asks them to do something unspeakable down the road.

Attention! We found a scrivener's error in Brown v. Board of Education. It was supposed to say: "in the field of public education the doctrine of 'separate but equal' has A REALLY GOOD AND IMPORTANT place." We have now corrected the typo. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

You can walk away. Before the shame follows you home. #StopICE

Our first foray into messaging research for trans folks, we did focus groups asking all sorts of people: have you ever felt trapped/expected to act certain way bc of something about you? This opened the flood gates. /1

Great article on the sprawling web of AI generated nonsense that pervades the publishing world and our internet generally.

This is a district court at its best. Taking extensive evidence and weighing it. Cutting through the BS to find actual facts. And here, making the government put up or shut up.

Lindsey Halligan should be immediately disbarred.

If the Flock camera data is public record, then Seattle's police surveillance camera data is too. If ICE wants that video, they won't have to do anything fancy to get it - all they'll have to do is ask.

This is the future US centrists want

My girlfriend is named Alexa too

I still think about this tweet.

Absolutely fitting coda to the whole Epstein horror show is that the brave testimony of dozens of women could not be credited and we need the emails of men to deem it credible.

Yup, pretty much sums it up

if democrats want to retain any amount of integrity they need to immediately vote out chuck schumer as party minority leader

Makes me so happy to see these plutocrat assholes get ignored.

Chad’s wife is a federal judge who was appointed by Trump and confirmed despite a Not Qualified rating from the ABA. She issued a nationwide block on Biden’s public transit mask mandate and also struck down a ban on guns in post offices. No complaints about activist judges from Chad then?

“However, when candidates inoculate early and respond directly, they recover those points and sometimes gain additional margin by demonstrating their values and strength,” the memo continued.

unpopular opinion but passports should reflect historical facts, i mean what even is the point if you can just change biometric data at will, anyway that’s why every passport photo should be restricted to a cute baby pic taken a few weeks after you’re born

The majority's reasoning is abysmal. Another casual hand waive to indicate that trans people have no legally cognizable rights as a group.

Jeanine Pirro tried to make an example of Sean Dunn. She ended up delivering a hero to Washington, D.C. www.huffpost.com/entry/dc-san...

Good luck to everyone who is campaigning on their belief that a better world is possible! Jeers to all candidates promising orderly management of the decline!

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’

Should have done these things when Biden was first elected. If Dems get a trifecta in 2028, they should do them then too.

Run of the mill Kavanaugh stop. Nothing to see here. Figuero will definitely not have nightmares about this shit for the rest of her life.

Teen Vogue had some of the best left-leaning political coverage around. Like they were genuinely good, and not just for a teen magazine. No doubt another casualty to the right-wing billionaire project to reshape the media landscape in their favor.

Please Eric Cantor this guy.

We had a billionaire give $130M to help pay U.S. soldiers during the shutdown. We have billionaires buying fleets of cybertrucks for the police. Who's police are they? Who's soldiers? They're supposed to be funded by and work for the people - not a bunch of deranged oligarchs.

every news outlet and journalist who calls trans rights a losing issue should be forcefed soap and their own regrets

it's heard not to see that we have an obvious police problem in this country

Once again, how is the public supposed to respond to people who are obscuring their identity and presenting themselves in a way that isn’t markedly different than what might be in an average closet? It is asking for trouble. The public should have a reasonable way to identify law enforcement.

conspiracy to make a cop go slow

Gutter racism. The Vice President of the United States explaining that it is totally reasonable to not want brown people living in your neighborhood.

Actually a good take. Correctly points out that Harris (and Dems broadly) *never* focus on "identity politics" and support for trans people. Harris, for example, mentioned trans people *one time* during the entire campaign. It's the GOP that spent hundreds of millions on trans ads. It's their issue!

Centrists like to yell at me when I say that Dems let Republicans define them, but then the same centrists turn around and state against evidence that the problem is that candidates are talking too much about, say, climate and trans issues when every single campaign is talking about the economy.
