Depends on the context, since it’s a grammar thing. “Bit flip” is a noun, but “bit-flip” would be a compound adjective. “We had a bit flip.” “We need to address our bit-flip problem.”

I shouldn't need an emergency go-bag with legal docs in case I need to flee the USA for my own safety, but that is exactly the position the Republican party has put me and millions of others in. 'Refuge states' won't save us. The GOP has made a fascist power play to usurp American principle itself.

I am at work (librarian), sitting at the circulation desk reading “Swordheart” by @tkingfisher.com (who has effectively clubbed me into submission with their powerhouse writing {clearly some form of beautiful and arcane magics} and declared themselves one of my all-time authors) -cont-

tbh reposting this on here (there aren't a lot of kids on here) feels a bit futile so I just want to champion Scarleteen as a really incredible accessible resource for kids seeking inclusive sex ed (+ other stuff re: teen safety) and if you can get it into the hands of kiddos now that'd be good

I get that we should be keeping up the pressure on the Epstein Files and all, but Congress is not reading the comment sections of random fantasy authors. Maybe take that energy and send letters to your Senator instead.

I've found the best strategy when your reps are Rs is to really hammer home how Anti-American, Anti-1st amendment, & anti-freedom these bills are, cause it's true. Also how much they've tanked the popularity of candidates who've backed KOSA in the UK. Also endless "you're wasting my tax $ on THIS?!"

ICE arrested press tonight. They threw a tear gas canister into the press last week. This was not an accident. Release Steve Held.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Listen to someone who has been through it under Putin.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

There is no measured way to say what I am about to say. If the Supreme Court agrees with the Trump administration to end birthright citizenship, we must end this current Supreme Court. I do not say this lightly.

Something I hadn’t even considered until I wrote this piece: Not taking Tylenol is not an option for #ActuallyAutistic moms since many of them experience pain and nausea and many of them have hypermobility, which increases pain during pregnancy. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

It really bodes ill how much MAGA seems to be latching on to compulsory farm labor as a solution to this entirely self-inflicted crisis. Most immediately it speaks to predictable deep trouble in ag production right now. It also tells us what use they'll make of political prisoners.

Republicans are about to shut down the government because they want American citizens to go bankrupt over basic health care.

Date Night Zafiri!

Today September 27 at 10:30am La Resistencia volunteers who observe the deportation flights informed us about the number of people deported from and transferred from Northwest Detention Center

I hope everyone who enjoys the great outdoors will take a moment to recognize Public Lands Day! And be thankful that we were able to fight off a Republican proposal to sell off millions of acres of some of America's most beautiful places.  (1/2)

The South Korean Ministry of Defense has awarded medals of merit to 11 officers for disobeying direct orders of superiors during the martial law fiasco, orders that they deemed to be contrary to the constitution and endangerment to democracy. www.chosun.com/english/nati...

Portland is a beautiful and vibrant city—it is not a war zone.     The President needs to keep the military out of the Pacific Northwest.   This is yet another abuse of power. Leaders across America—in government, business, everywhere—need to push back.

Portland doesn’t need the military. Portland has its own defenses.

Every time I see a transfem post a transition timeline on here it’s always this meme

1. Great news for trans students in Chicago. Chicago Public Schools has announced it will defy Trump's demand to ban trans youth from bathrooms. Trump will now pull millions in federal funds. "Our district will not back away from doing what we know is right." Subscribe to support our journalism.

An 18% flat tax on income plus 18% GDP/capita UBI would end all poverty in the US. And if you make less than $90k/yr per person in your household would be a net negative tax for your household.

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

Universal Basic Income. And also Universal Healthcare. Like not "you have the right to timely healthcare but in practise you'll be waiting 6+ years" but like "you WILL be seen within the month or we're getting fired"

DHS says the ICE officer who shoved the woman in New York yesterday has been relieved of his duties and his conduct unacceptable. Bit surprised as I’ve seen a lot of not too dissimilar videos of ice actions DHS has stood by.

TODAY'S COMIC: Fishing

NEW: ICE agents violently arrested a man in a busy Hyattsville, MD intersection this week, at one point brandishing guns and pointing them at bystanders. I spoke to multiple witnesses—including a local priest whose church is a sanctuary for undocumented people: www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

Good thing she got a screenshot

Great work by the AGO shutting down the Trump Admin’s illegal effort to hold grant funding hostage. In Washington, the Keep Washington Working Act keeps our law enforcement resources where they belong: Protecting our communities, and not assisting in the Trump Admin’s cruel immigration policies.

This man was NOT born in Guyana. He is a natural born citizen. And even if he weren’t, FUCK 🥶

Blinkered — a cartoon by Michael de Adder

Genndy Tartakovsky shared test footage from his film ‘The Black Knight’. It follows a knight who controls a 20ft suit of armor. Sony isn't sure there's an audience for the film and haven’t greenlit it yet. After Kpop demon hunters success I don't understand why Sony are dragging their feet on this!

It took just three days to get Sinclair to back down, and what it got in exchange for agreeing to put Kimmel back on the air was...nothing. This is not what happens every time you stand up to a bully, but if you don't fight back, you'll never know if you would have won.
