NC Republicans introduced HB 1232 to define personhood as starting at fertilization. The proposed punishment for attempting to end or ending a pregnancy is either attempted murder or first-degree murder. This bill has to be stopped. www.ncleg.gov/BillLookUp/2...

find your Falcor and get the hell outta there, folks!

It’s time. Meet in Selma. Saturday, May 16th. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

I adore this creature! 😍

Not only is this not happening, the Chinese dominance of EV’s is a terrifying development for US auto manufacturers.

Feels like a good week to reemphasize this from @sifill.bsky.social. To her point, some suggested readings: bookshop.org/lists/books-...

Today's Supreme Court ruling in Louisiana v. Callais is the culmination of John Roberts’ two-decade crusade to gut the Voting Rights Act. It is, simply put, a devastating blow to American democracy.

Folks, we need to be plain-spoken about what just happened with the fedsoc majority on SCOTUS. The VRA protects[ed] everyone, but fundamentally, attacks on the VRA are attacks on Black Americans voting. There are a lot of white people who simply do not think Black Americans have a right to vote.

1/ This is an outstanding instant analysis of the James Comey "8647" criminal indictment by @kenwhite.bsky.social. You should go read it; it's relatively short. Ken makes two interlocking points that bear repetition. www.popehat.com/p/the-comey-...

This is a victory for the LGBTQ+ community and for our entire city. It’s a reminder that New Yorkers won’t let our history be rewritten. Our administration will keep working to ensure LGBTQ+ New Yorkers can live safely and with dignity in our city.

I'm really sorry for all the SA survivors having to put up with the onslaught of INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY IN A COURT OF LAW bullshit going around the internet today. I see you, and I know it's traumatizing.

I hate when fantasy films I made a long time ago begin to come true in real life.

Periodic reminder: D.C. remains patrolled all over the city by armed members of the National Guard deployed to do so by President Trump.

Artemis II was overshadowed by other bad things in the news but what it accomplished was frankly amazing. We are capable of incredible and unprecedented things. I’m in awe at how far we safely sent humans into space.

Wade and I are stoked that the Artemis II crew made it back safe and sound! 😃😺❤️

Those four #Artemis astronauts went from weightlessness to a 3+G re-entry to splashdown and now they’ve been at 1G bobbing in the ocean for half an hour while they wait to get pulled out of their little tin can. I do not envy how their stomachs must be feeling right now. 😬

Next week, a little-known law that allows the government to sidestep the Constitution and spy on US citizens is set to expire. Congress should let FISA’s Section 702 die, but we fear some Democrats could join Republicans in reauthorizing this civil liberties disaster.

And here’s the eclipse photo from Artemis II. I am in tears.

Oh noooo. Hegseth is comparing the airman to Jesus because he was shot down on Good Friday, hid in a cave on Saturday, and was pulled into the sky on Easter Sunday. Uggghhhhhhh

MEMPHIS— @mayorpaulyoung says the peaceful #NoKings marchers police attacked “should have filed a parade permit”, echoing what Speaker Sexton told us. No condemnation of the police, he implies a long lead-up maybe justified it. False. WATCH for yourself: www.instagram.com/reel/DWmMVLT...

Christianity is the biggest, most profitable scam in America.

Proud to support this!

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

FYI trumps executive order is illegal and the GOP congressmen who know it are spineless and won’t say a word. Despite spending years complaining about Obamas executive orders

PRESIDENT: "We should have a national database of all legal US gun owners." CONSERVATIVES: "YOU CAN'T DO THAT! THAT IS UNAMERICAN!! YOU CAN'T TRACK AMERICAN CITIZENS!!! IT'S AGAINST OUR LIBERTY!!!!" PRESIDENT: "We will have a national database of all legal US voters." CONSERVATIVES: [yawn]

BREAKING: President Trump has issued an unlawful executive order attempting to severely restrict mail-in voting. The Constitution is clear: Only the states or Congress can change election laws.

Thank you for making No Kings 3 the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen. #NoKings

Spread this FAR AND WIDE.

Ho-lee Shit. This is phenomenally good news. Department of Education rolls back— for now— its attempts to destroy Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility initiatives. Keep an eye on them, of course, and watch for the hidden knife, always, but for now: Fantastic news.

We have your backs. You're not alone.

Terrified Conservatives Lose Ability To Speak English After Exposure To Bad Bunny Performance https://theonion.com/terrified-conservatives-lose-ability-to-speak-english-after-exposure-to-bad-bunny-performance-dios-mio-cry-millions-of-panicking-republicans/

Renee Good's brothers sat before a group of U.S. senators and representatives on Tuesday afternoon and asked for their help. Their testimony was part of a public forum held by Congressional Democrats. Video: Sen. Richard Blumenthal livestream via Facebook.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Wow -- Fanone coughs "go fuck yourself" to Trey Nehls as Nehls blames Capitol Police leadership for January 6

Completely take away the ability to merge if you're past a certain size instead of leaving it up to an agency to approve or disapprove and boom, there goes 90% of the government leverage over large media companies.

I think it's important to note that all of these networks firing people because their parent companies need govt approval of mergers only can do so because we allow media conglomerates to merge even though they are so big that a govt agency has to approve it.

Whether you like or dislike what’s said, free speech is at the heart of our democracy. Protecting it should be one of our core missions as a nation. If there were ever a moment for the so-called “free speech warriors” to speak out, now would be the time.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope. She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive. But the FDA recently denied its approval. Now, her health hangs in the balance. Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

When you realize that what you were taught in school was selected so it wouldn't inconvenience you.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

A gentle reminder: Never become overly dependent on a social media platform. Always be ready to bounce. You do not need them - they need your attention. Disinterest is a power move.
