‘Trump is aiming for dictatorship’. That’s the verdict of the world’s most credible democracy watchdog | Martin Gelin

The thing is, Paul Thomas Anderson has deserved this kind of recognition for other movies he's made—but this is just the wrong movie for him to catch these awards for. It wasn't anywhere near *his best*, and it wasn't the best movie of the year.

The fee is about *70 percent* of the new US TikTok’s $14 billion valuation

"Wearing All Black at Protests Makes You Guilty of Terrorism, Prosecutors Tell Jury The Prairieland case is a major test of the Trump administration’s push to label “antifa” protesters as terrorists." All eyes on Prairieland 👀 Read: theintercept.com/2026/03/12/a...

Horrific. Georgia police charged a woman with murder after she allegedly used misoprostol. Hospital may have reported her. @pregnancyjust.bsky.social calls it “an unprecedented murder charge for an alleged abortion, even though no law in the state of Georgia permits such a charge." bit.ly/46W2Ezb

wait. wait. everyone hold on. i've solved it

Within just a few hours of this morning's genocide warning from the Lemkin Institute, the 4th Circuit ruled that trans adults can have our care banned and be forced by any means to "appreciate our sex", and Iowa made it ILLEGAL to protect trans people. www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

This beady-eyed, caked matte makeup faced, privileged prihck is blatantly lying about the story and doesn't know how anything works.

5. MOST ANTI-SURVEILLANCE WORK IS LOCAL Sorry folks, we're not gonna pass a Federal anti-surveillance law or stop Palantir from building spy weapons by boycotting them (they are not consumer facing). At least not right now. Plug in with local folks fighting Flock, Ring, fusion centers, etc.

As a former buyer, this would all be so easy if publishers stop setting their MSRPs to end in .99, .98, .97. The whole "We can trick people into thinking they are spending $19 instead of $20!

“Piracy is the most effective form of artistic distribution these days. So be it.” -Werner Herzog on NPR just now 🔥

Country Joe and the Fish's best-known song, "I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die Rag," captured the growing anti-war sentiment of the Vietnam era. n.pr/4b7Vs5H

Life is short, friends. Spend as much of it as you can loving people.

When I was a kid, my mom's boss was barber to the mob.

It must be really hard working in a professional kitchen what with all the spies and secret agents in hot pursuit of bad guys constantly running through smashing up all your shit.

I'm watching ER for the first time (I was too stoned for it in the 90s) And the kid who played The Annointed One on Buffy is in this episode!!!

Ok. Come on. This is nowhere near the same as confronting an elected outside their office and on camera. Nor is it the same as making vile agents feel unwelcome in a restaurant/hotel.

This framing does make them seem like one of the stories in their book that acts as a warning of what not to do.

“Many of their commanders are especially delighted with how graphic this battle will be zeroing in on how bloody all of this must become in order to fulfill and be in 100% accordance with fundamentalist Christian end of the world eschatology.”

I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.

The same way you don't want people bombing you and your loved ones is the same exact thing that other people feel where they live.

Torture and forced experimentation.

This obviously very stupid but is it also smart? We’ll talk to some liars after this break.

The day before starting a war with Iran, the Secretary of Defense was focused on removing trans scouters from the Boy Scouts.

I have a hard time believing the Biden administration did not have tools to stop this man from coming to power and enacting sweeping authoritarianism, fascism, and absolute horrors.

The next step is going to be using this to justify "emergency" taking over elections. If there is any retaliation on US soil, or bases, that will be expedited.

Dems and other electeds need to include these details in their admonishment of this attack, not just "we need to approve the bombing of children before you can do it" Show that you actually have morality and see Iranians as people.

we are mere hours from Trump admin officials going on TV and talking about how women and LGBTQ people are oppressed in Iran and that's why we need to bomb them meanwhile half the US has forced-birth laws in place and Kansas just revoked every trans person's drivers license

I KNEW McKay would come through!

7 min into S2 E8 of The Pitt and, yep, Ogilvie is officially an asshole. I'm hoping he gets schooled by thr end of the hour.

i really can not emphasize enough that the most materially impactful thing you can do for trans people right now is hire them.

Let's see if we can raise $10,000 today for red state or national queer orgs. Post proof here in the replies that you donated to a red state or national queer organization and I will share. Who's with me? (I can't donate myself because I'm a journalist who covers these orgs)

It is a disgusting industry.

Dishonesty is at the center of the anti-trans hate campaign. Though much bigotry is blatant, an astonishing amount is laundered by the nyt, which routinely manipulates and falsifies information to foist on unsuspecting readers Take its small but important role in legitimizing this extremist group🧵

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

I think i need to read up more on what criteria gets something sent to the CBPA. My naive self thought all police killings would go there.

First of all, If someone yelled and banged on my door at 5am, it would take way more than 4 sec for me to comprehend what was happening, let alone get up, put on my robe, and open the door.

NEW FROM ME: The deportation plane stuck in the blizzard took off this morning after 31 hours, but not before exposing a much bigger problem with exceedingly long delays on ICE flights.

Dexter is also hosting a virtual town hall right now, giving her constituents a good alternative.

February makes rent feel extra swindle-y. I am I am paying the same for less days AND I have less days to come up with March's rent. Can we do away with the Gregorian calendar already?

He really said "I love your spirit, but also people should own homes. Mmhmm, that's a good point you make, but also hoarding real estate costs people lives. Yeah, the snow is beautiful but you know what else is beautiful? Having a roof between you and it." 🤣🤣🤣👑

Nothing about this is legal. The US is quietly deporting Palestinians arrested by #ICE to the occupied West Bank via private jet owned by an Israeli-American property tycoon & friend of President Trump, with two such flights taking place in coordination w the Israel: www.972mag.com/us-secretly-...
