the GOP has always been on the "everything I don't like is Terrorism" beat, but oh boy this is an escalation. what a chilling precedent for preventing anyone with any drug-related charges (or alleged charges) (or vague, fabricated accusations based on racism) from having a chance to contest them

This is true

Since it’s now after midnight in our time zone, everyone say happy birthday to @virginie.bsky.social ! The best podcast cohost someone could ask for, but even more importantly a great friend, and wonderful human being. My life is so much brighter and better with you in it. ❤️

Video shows Israeli forces shooting Palestinians dead moments after surrender

Sweden's government, propped up by neo-Nazis, wants to give the police the power to use AI facial recognition in real time. The slide towards fascism is picking up speed.

The watchers on the interwebs, the shield that guards the realm of Denmark…

Question for German speakers: In a lot of languages (eg English, French, Spanish) there have been attempts to make language more inclusive and gender neutral. For instance with gender neutral pronouns or in conjugating words. Is there something like that in German, and how has it been perceived?

1. It would appear that in recent reporting, the BBC is now using the phrase "biological male who identifies as a woman" when they mean to talk about a transgender woman. This is an incredibly demeaning way to talk about transgender women in news pieces. Subscribe to support our journalism.

It takes about $150/wk just to keep food + shelter. My health has taken a turn for the worse, I lost my writing gig in September, I'm out of my OTC pain/CPTSD management stuff, & badly need to replace some clothing staples. Please help or share. Venmo is MirandaBrave. #mutualaid

"All of this, food bloggers say, erodes the simple promise of a recipe: that someone has actually cooked it before you have."

Fuck me this slaps.

Things we called fake during this evening’s recording of @ragmanspod.bsky.social: - borders - the gender binary - private property That’s all to say, we were pretty on brand.

Okay, question for UK people: I’m reading a novel where this came up and I’m confused… Is it a thing to have PE class divided into girls/boys, with them playing different sports? Like, the girls playing netball while the boys are playing football. Or is the school in this book very conservative?

A movie that takes place where you’re from.

another week w/o gigs, another call for #mutualaid, unfortch. Takes about $150/wk to survive (food + shelter) & I'm at a crisis point re: unable to buy clothes since pre pandemic. Small amounts add up, shares help, & you get so much writing on my ko-fi in thanks. I have Venmo too - MirandaBrave.

I’m howling.

There’s big money in transphobia

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance

You know you have a good boss when they randomly bring this to everyone at the office

Does everyone remember Adriana Smith, the Georgia nurse who was declared brain dead while nine weeks pregnant? The black woman who was kept alive without the consent of her family because of the fetus? Baby “Chance” was born in June. He’s still in the NICU.

I can’t believe Zohran is transing the trains already www.mta.info/article/f-m-...

Not just any filmmaker, but his filmmaking partner… that he was dating

"biological pronouns" is an insane phrase

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

you guys have GOT to watch the whole thing www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOQT...

READ: 2 out of 3 young Jews are expected to vote for Zohran Mamdani. Even as he supports BDS, calls Gaza a genocide, and says he'd arrest Netanyahu. This marks a significant moment for Jewish identity as more Jews distance themselves from Zionism. mondoweiss.net/2025/10/zohr...

"Here we believe in standing up for those we love, whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many black women Trump has fired, a single mom waiting for the cost of groceries to go down, or anyone else with your back against the wall. Your struggle is ours too."

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

Do something Dick Cheney would have hated and help a Palestinian family ❤️

Got a news flash that Dick Cheney was dead, and knew I had to get on here to see all the shitposts

A day of huge mourning for the Far Right in the UK. Not only was the Huntingdon train stabbings not the terrorist/asylum seeker/immigrant atrocity they’d hoped and prayed for, here is the hero of the day:

Lol

Movie you’ve seen more than 7 times with a gif

AI used for racism. What a surprise.

Just listened to @notacast.bsky.social episode on Alayne I, and was reminded of a question I always have when I think about Lyn Corbray: When Littlefinger says he likes ”boys”, what does he mean exactly…?

Met this small traveller at the train station 🐈

Really heartwarming and a big, emphatic fuck you to the xenophobic, racist Cuomo and New York Post scaremongering.

there's a really fascinating dynamic currently playing out in the AI boyfriend community. apparently people keep having their chats randomly rerouted from chatgpt 4 to 5, which won't pretend to be their boyfriend, so whenever chatgpt 5 shows up they get mad and yell at it

my favorite Pope Francis mode was “I’m saying a thing that SOUNDS like a general statement but is in fact a really nasty subtweet of one very specific guy” I think Leo from Chicago might be even better at it please bear in mind he declined to get dragged deep into the Charlie Kirk funeral theater

More people should be paying attention to the atrocities taking place in Sudan

I know Mance is deceived as pretty plain, but a guy’s politics can definitely increase his sexiness. So I’m gonna go with Mance.

We love to see it 🔥
