the same way eliminating car dealers, realtors and other parasitic right-wing industries needs to be a goal of the left for its own survival, eliminating chriorpactors, the supplements industry and other quack medicine needs to be on the agenda too

No exaggeration, I think this is one of the most important stories in US health care. MAHA makes a lot more sense if you see it as a hostile takeover by the quackery industry

Wild what you can get away with in articles about cycling. This is objectively false! A city with less driving and more biking is far safer for pedestrians. Hate cyclists all you want but that’s an empirical fact

"Bunch of guys obsessed with Ancient Sparta can't beat the Persians at sea" was probably one of the known-knowns, come to think of it.

lol it's nice to see them scared about a Texas Democrat

There has never in history been so many demon coded ppl walking around

Worth ruminating on why Harper was rewarded with a cushy job at a billionaire-run outlet while so many smarter people who were right about stuff are unemployed or under employed

the average business traveler has never encountered an ICE agent in the flesh. if anyone in the administration had half the sense god gave a goat, they’d be desperate to keep it that way.

It’s crazy how 85% of the time when I see a man using a baby carrier they’ve got it adjusted completely wrong. Like fellas is it gay to not completely fuck up your infants back and/or hips.

i’ve always said the generally hellish experience of going through TSA would be improved by bringing in other federal agents with no understanding of airports who love to shoot people

so the only possible official act they are possibly goingto perform is assassinate you

Apartheid South Africa did not have a “right to exist” as such, neither did Greater Serbia or Rhodesia, neither did Jim Crow Mississippi. This isn’t hard

If I was a socialist mayor I simply would not interact with bourgeois capitalist art. I would exist solely off old photo archives of Soviet architecture and listen to folk songs sung by buskers

The number of anti trans laws substantially outnumbers antisodomy laws and antimiscegenation laws. If you include regulations, admin actions, and municipal actions, it almost approaches Jim Crow in its scale and scope. However, it took 5 years to approach what took Jim Crow a hundred.

Putting together an analysis of all the anti trans laws over the last few years and there's never been anything like this in US history. The total number of state laws passed in 5 years (300+) approaches the total number of Jim Crow laws (400+) passed over a 100 years.

People keep saying the Constitution was set up specifically to stop tyrants and mad kings, but the thing most of the notably unusual features of our Constitution were actually designed to do was protect slavery.

The state of Tennessee is moving towards creating a full registry of trans people by requiring medical providers to report all of their personal health information to the state department of health.

colonoscopies are not only the best screening tool for colorectal cancer, they also allow you to remove precancerous adenomas before they become cancer. I won’t shut up lately about how screening needs to start even younger than 45 so if you’re 45 or older make sure you get one.

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.

not be be dramatic but this man is a demon from hell

This first reup is equivalent in cost to two years of Trump’s Medicaid cuts. Modern conservatism is an alchemy that transforms the abandoned domestic into the murdered international

People are commenting about how this is about "powerful" men, but in a society that listens to men over women and girls, that treats the former as competent and credible, the latter as not, every man is empowered to abuse, and it happens at all levels and in all sectors of society.

That’s cool my 3 year old has never seen a movie because she doesn’t have the attention span for Seven Samurai yet and I don’t want her seeing anything mid

Frederick Jameson said that it was easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism; I would add that it’s easier to imagine the end of capitalism than the end of rape.

It is a recurring tragedy for women and girls on the left that many of us believe that the men in our movements include us in their visions of a more just, equal, and dignified world, and we have to learn the hard way that they don’t.

just got followed by a spam sports betting account. bluesky has arrived baby.

An overconfident Team USA getting embarrassed by a much smaller country in front of a global audience is their last and most beautiful tribute to the American military yet

It is St. Patrick's Day and rather than celebrate patriarchy and green beer, I invite you to celebrate St. Brigid, the saint who demonstrated God's goodness by giving abortions

Starting to feel as though i might greet the IRG as liberators if they wanted to do a little bit of regime change over here

I'm truly sick of how people keep responding to the endless airtime given to the male grievance movement with "We should give them even more of our attention and focus" instead of, say, talking about its impact on WOMEN.

never beating the “FBI as a make-a-wish foundation for podcasters” allegations

ok so like what is going on with the aggressive sniffing here

No one was more comically wrong than people who said the murder of Charlie Kirk would unify the broader American right when in fact it has led right-wing influencers to create Sunni and Shia Islam from first principles

Cleveland husbands love to talk to you about how Paul Thomas Anderson is Ghoulardi’s son

The reason someone like Andreessen decides that introspection is some kind of a trick to make him feel bad about himself is that whenever he thinks about the things he’s done and why he did them, he feels bad about himself. This is not a problem with introspection per se.

My webcam was ultra zoomed in and I couldn’t figure out how to fix it on my telemedicine appointment with my psychiatrist this morning and I feel like it was implicitly contradicting any claims I made about my current mental stability

Signaling that I’m not a normal mom I’m a cool mom by dressing like shit in a slightly different way than all the other moms at the science museum on a Sunday morning

My 3 year currently has a baby doll that she says is a little brother but also she/her and anyway it’s crazy that people act like talking to kids about gender is difficult

No, I am not worried about 'declining' birth rates, I accept them as post-modern birth rates, the birth rates that naturally happen once the conditions are set that children can be expected to survive to adulthood reliably and that women are allowed to be educated and become full citizens.
