If you want to stand up against fascism, then you have to defend trans rights. It’s nonnegotiable. We all lose otherwise.

If we’ve learned anything from the pandemic, it’s that minimum compliance is not the same as safety. #ClinicallyVulnerable pupils cannot “choose” lower exposure if the baseline standard is poor. 3/

Flavor Flav supports women's sports, and seriously, who is going to miss the chance to go to a Flavor Flav party?

A man of the people.

I wanna see every white person who suddenly cared about disability justice because it meant they could say slurs caring about justice for us disabled people, all disabled people not just white ones, 24/7 from now on since y'all talk a big game.

Mayor Brandon Johnson announced “Abolish ICE” as the winner of a citywide snow plow name contest. He had earlier given it a “full and complete” endorsement.

Well this story blew up. Went to the front page of reddit, hacker news, Gizmodo. People donated thousands of dollars to the legal fund of Jeff Sovern, who dismantled 13 Flock surveillance cameras. The response was near-universal enthusiasm for the project of smashing invasive, exploitative tech.

The Senate confirmation hearing for Casey Means (Trump's pick for surgeon general) is on February 25th. She is pretty much standard MAHA - vaccine misinformation, autism misinformation, raw milk & supplement promotion. But I think what worries me the most is her rhetoric about birth control.

In South Carolina you can be arrested for pregnancy loss. The right claims that abortion is “murder”. But doing this to your child is fine? This 7 year old is fighting for his life from a completely preventable illness. His mother says she still won’t give him vaccines.

My aunt, the doctor, told me a new joke. She asked: Why are so many people eager to become robots these days? I said I did not know. And so she answered: Because they believe once they are robots they’ll finally stop getting sick all the time. And then neither of us laughed.

Grad school is hard enough without a supremacist government kidnapping you for weeks & then trying to deport you for months. A heroic accomplishment! Congratulations, Dr. Öztürk! 🥳

Hmm. The US is giving $10 billion in taxpayer dollars, not appropriated by Congress, to a fake board set up by the President and which he put himself in charge of *for life*... seems very, very illegal.

Says the rich guys. 🙄

Canada letting down world citizens in foreign aid: thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

I've been saying it a lot, but these deaths line up with what happened in early concentration camps during other regimes: Deaths from poor conditions, disease, or abuse. These deaths are not accidental. They are the direct result of a camp system that is designed to harm those being imprisoned.

James Marion Sims, known as “the father of modern gynecology," achieved his breakthroughs by experimenting on Black girls and women, without anesthesia or meaningful consent. It’s an origin story the US medical establishment has spent almost 180 years trying to reconcile, whitewash, or ignore.

This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades. It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.

No. What people on the left need to see is journalists informing the public rather than performing press release as a service.

Hey folks! Street Medics in Minneapolis have reached out to us asking for help boosting another wishlist! Everything on this list is going straight to Columbia Heights. (If you hate amazon, please visit www.standwithminnesota.com and find a different way to help! just help, that is what matters)

Have been offline for my mental health, but I wanted to let people know that the survey company Ipsos is now using AI, including "digital twins" - so don't trust any of their results anymore.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why: They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course. The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

Going to say it here too. M***n is an ableist slur, steeped in eugenics. Don't use it. Here's a thesaurus so you can expand your vocabulary. Thesaurus.com

On the phone with them right now. You can host the armed goons terrorizing our families, or you can host us.

Fact check: The flu, RSV and COVID are spread primarily through the air. Ventilation, masking and staying home when sick matter much more than Clorox wipes. It seems hopeless when we have Insta 'health influencers' with 1M+ followers spreading droplet dogma

The issue with ICE is not training, the issue with ICE is that it fundamentally should not exist. The violence is the purpose

Begs the question of how useful all that military cosplay gear is, if it won't even protect you from the wine moms.

The Toronto Sun's Ottawa bureau chief, Bryan Passifiume, thinks people should be executed in the streets for their political beliefs Is this also the official position of The Toronto Sun? Ask Editor-In-Chief Adrienne Batra: [email protected] Passifiume needs to be fired ASAP

this is absolutely a violent political threat, but also, I hope people remember/pay attention to the normalization of this kind of talk--allowing it to slide unremarked leads to dangerous places in the US, India, etc. Even if the complaints about Bryan Passiflume go nowhere, they are worth making.
