Bellissima Italia!

There's a lot of speculation about what Trump can & can't do against the left with his new executive orders. To cut thru it, I spoke with FBI counterterrorism veteran turned whistleblower Terry Albury about how he & his old colleagues use the powers they have – and what the average citizen should do

this is such a good post that i wanted to share it here

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Hello - it’s the part of the year where I turn over my hat and ask for donations if you’ve enjoyed my artwork this month! Info in the replies if you want to support me - rent is due tomorrow so every penny means a lot!

Today, 33% of all the electricity used in Oregon is attributed to data centers. In Virginia, it’s 37%. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Today I had the rare opportunity to interview Bae Franklin, a Veteran currently on the flotilla as it nears Gaza. Corporate media has barely covered these courageous voices. It is critical you hear directly from these heroes risking their lives to end the genocide www.qasimrashid.com/p/interview-...

David Cross folks.

I went on CNN's One Thing podcast last week, talking about how absurd & ass-backwards last week's White House Big Autism Announcement was. But as not everyone listens to podcasts, here's a thread of the conversation: www.cnn.com/audio/podcas... #autism #TylenolDoesNotCauseAutism #neurodiversity 1/

“AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society, and our descendants will be digging it out for generations.”

Too many people are unaware of the fact that the “fire safety plan” for wheelchair user students or employees who study or work on an upper level of a multistory building is usually just, “Wait by the top of the stairs and hope someone comes to rescue you.” ✨🚒✨

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

This is true. What this right wing nostalgia boom is actually about, is to show us that this is what happens when a repressed asshole can’t admit they have an ABDL/little kink.

for one beautiful day a year my archive looks Very Satisfying

ICE is one of the most well funded military force on the planet, entirely used internally on it’s own citizens, and completely loyal to a far right fascist dictator. if democratic politicians are not on board with abolishing ICE, they must be replaced

no one: some Disney exec in 1995: obviously children won’t understand the theme of architectural preservation in the original Hunchback of Notre Dame. so write a song about the corruption of religious power and sexual resentment disguised as piety. I’ll book the chamber choir.

The live-action Lion King remake. That’s the one that put me off all of Disney’s live-action remakes for good.

A new book by “Sioux chef” Sean Sherman seeks to erase colonial borders from across Turtle Island by sharing Indigenous recipes.

Q: Should I be concerned if I have taken acetaminophen at any point during my pregnancy? A: No. This, a truckload of helpful autism information plus just the right dose of simmering rage, in the latest TPGA newsletter by Dr. @ejwillingham.bsky.social: buttondown.com/TPGA/archive... #autism

not a political statement. without trans healthcare, i die.

yeah so if you were wondering if i fuck with sandon branderson, the answer is no.

The deadly shooting by a Trump sycophant at a LDS Church in Michigan is yet another reminder of a truth MAGAs want us to forget: Since 1999, Americans have suffered 2,000+ shootings in houses of worship. It isn't "lack of God" causing gun deaths—it's unlimited guns & unhinged white supremacy.

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved. Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf. No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

The corporate Democrats condemning Trump for stripping healthcare—while themselves opposing universal healthcare—should know they are complicit. You cannot be funded by for profit health exploitation megacorps, then be surprised when Trump takes that exploitation to the next level. You Enabled This

I'm honored to share the winners of the 5th Keeley Schenwar Memorial Essay Prize, given in memory of my sister. Both essays this year reflect on the stark, inherent violence of prison, and convey a key message for our time: Where there is injustice, there is resistance. truthout.org/articles/ann...

"[T]here's no real difference between an acetaminophen scaremonger like RFK Jr. and an anti-trans obsessive like J.K. Rowling ... [B]oth spread lies as easily as they breathe, it's just that certain segments of society feel a bit icky about the idea of trans people and so are more likely to listen."

you don’t actually have to hand it to the guy who is leaving the office in disgrace and polling in the single digits as an incumbent

Copyright claims saying that I wrote shit that I didn't youtu.be/gTk8PeCI-wc?...

While this is very true, and it's what led me to go to law school, we also have to consider that autistic people love structure and predictability, and many of us (myself included!) find the unpredictable nature of the courtroom to be unbearably overwhelming.

Listen to someone who has been through it under Putin.

the fact that trans ppl who are forced back into the closet and have their bodily autonomy violated are lumped into the "detransitioner" label is actually disgusting. like. that's just trans ppl being tortured

I deeply value free speech and debate. The watchlist created by Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA is anathema to both. buff.ly/K0adt8e

May the extinction come quickly.

SWORDTEMBER DAY 26: THEATRE Mania, of pale gold and bright hope 🎭🌻

Again, Tylenol is NOT a drug. It’s a brand. There’s a reason it’s being singled out…

The largest group in ICE detention is now immigrants with no criminal record, with more than 16,500 currently being held. Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about going after the “worst of the worst.” This was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

They just can’t absorb the fact that we’ve already heard their ideas, considered them well in the scope of history, and determined that they’re bad. Bringing in reactionary speakers would be like bringing in a phlogiston theorist to a physics class, or a flat-earther to a geography class.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is - more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week) - more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages) - more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

One fact is clear—ICE is afraid of us. ICE boarded up their buildings, put up fences, hid behind masks, forced us to move to a new location, & pepper balled peaceful protestors. They know their only hope is to divide us in culture wars. We cannot let them. www.qasimrashid.com/p/when-prote...

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

The autism announcement was a full-on grift. Eugenicist exploitation of autism as “threat” is all for $. They’ve been at it for 20+ years& some of us have seen this over&over. There is no uncertainty to be earnestly explored here. It. Is. Grift.

So we’re all being taxed so that we can subsidize farmers who would have otherwise been able to make a living selling their crops. Brilliant.
