Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Worth remembering that something did happen: the journalist who revealed this died from a car bomb.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

Seems to be accurate now. Don't forget that you have many alternatives!

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

This is an impeachable statement. It should be a career-ending scandal to avoid a question, especially one of grave import and consequence, by claiming ignorance about the most basic fundamental aspect of your job.

If you ever doubt yourself just remember Amazon spent $40m on the Melania documentary and we’ve literally sold more tickets to our play in London lmaooo kingsheadtheatre.com/whats-on/bli...

"I am 5 years old" Shut it all down. All of it. ICE, DHS, Border Patrol, the entire Republican Party, all the fascist billionaires, X, Tesla, Avelo, and every Democrat who supports them. It's evil through and through.

This is where I'll remind everyone of @nogamesforgenocide.com and their general ask that, out of solidarity with BDS and Palestine, products under the Xbox and Microsoft gaming umbrellas not be covered by journalists or influencers nogamesforgenocide.com

Do you want me to vote for Democrats? They need to not be transphobes, enshrine queer rights, enshrine abortion access, nationalize healthcare, address climate change, and fight fascism meaningfully. Every candidate that doesn’t do these things is a waste of time and I will not vote for them.

Destroy All Monsters (1968)

Voted for ICE funding

Leftists address this constantly. We advocate for universal health care and child care, guaranteed pensions, decommodified housing, and all kinds of other things that would directly address these issues. What we don't do is say "more white babies" which is what is really being asked here

So, if I'm reading this right: 4 prosecutors at the Dept of Justice Civil Rights division quit because the Trump-appointed leadership won't investigate Good's killer, and 6 from the Minnesota US Attorney's office quit when they were told instead to investigate her widow. (HT @benjaminkabak.com)

I feel like this is extremely relevant again Not “this was not self-defense” but “this was murder” Not “she didn’t run the ICE agent over” but “she was murdered while trying to drive away”

"We know what people want, and what they want is a machine to do all the things in life they might actually enjoy so they have more time to work."

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well: go.bsky.app/8daQmpX

There's already a logo for this. :)

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

Fuck you, Epic. I don't want to have the fucking Harry Potter game even if it's free.

I’ve found it’s more visually appealing to just paste in his head at the inflection points

it's 2025 and the gangly guy who appeared on a few seasons of The Office is now our only mirror to society

I saw someone call Ai a Thneed and I can't stop thinking about it. It's a PERFECT analogy. The Thneed was an all-purpose tool that didn't do anything really useful. It was a fad that did major damage to the environment to make the Onceler a billionare. It left no real lasting impact, only damage.

my first story @theintercept.com: organizers with @adalahjustice.bsky.social and @genderlib.com announced today that the Human Rights Campaign has ended its relationships with weapons manufacturers Northrop Grumman and Raytheon following years of protests and accusations of "pinkwashing"

UNIONS

Cancelled. Cancelled into the Sun. Cancelled into a volcano. Into Jupiter's atmosphere. Cancelled in every gory and visible way. Cancelled back into his snowplow. Again. www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

let’s go

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

posted this four months ago but tonight as buckaroos like mamdani sweep elections i will post again. hope this is sign to all establishment goofs that trotting to the center is not the move. protect the buckaroos who are in perilous circumstances and do not give an inch

It begins.

All those Democrats that said their way to winning was to avoid gender identity stuff? I hope they see this and fire those consultants.

Hey, friendly reminder that Scott Cawthon's donations to the GOP literally contributed to SNAP suspension and you shouldn't buy or stream Five Nights at Freddy's anything.

I know it's tedious to say at this point, but this is why we need to listen when porn artists and sex workers raise the alarm about this shit. Art and people that can be dismissed as "immoral" are ALWAYS the thin end of the wedge when the powers that be try and assert control over entire systems.
