There are no safe seats for anyone who wants to criminalize helping your friends and neighbors.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Aye, Georgia, early voting ends on Friday and the primary is on Tuesday. The Supreme Court election is on this ballot. It is not a primary, the winners are installed as judges. Go. Vote.

Straight up Klan talk from the 1920s. The reference to Islam is the only thing that would mark this as something from our own era.

A wonderful sentence from this story, describing the video of the man who threw a rock at a seal for no reason getting beat up by a local: "Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him."

Supreme Court justices should not have publishing deals and be doing publicity tours at all, even for a kid's book.

Clearly the only way to protect voters and defend democracy is to reject anything that was decided democratically by the voters themselves

I did this really quickly, and I should've added a link to his widow's GoFundMe. Mattel has a $200 million He-Man film coming out. They only donated $5,000 to Roger's GoFundMe.

PSA to my fellow Zoom users -- it's automatically turned on a bunch of A.I. features without asking you✌️ to turn all 32 of them off, go to "Settings" --> "My Account" --> "View advanced features" it'll open up your browser and list a SHITTON of A.I. features, many of which will be on (scroll!)

On this day in 1933, Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld library in Berlin. The world’s greatest collection of LGBTQ books and scientific papers were looted and later burned, erasing decades of research into sexuality and gender identity. ‘Where they burn books, in the end they will burn humans too’.

I need people to show up for fighting ID Verification laws the same way y'all hammered payment processors because they're effectively the same issue but ID Verification violates your rights & safety even more making it easier for the government to come after you & your personal info to be stolen

To me the most insulting thing about comparing Platner to Mamdani is that there was a nationally visible campaign orchestrated by bad actors saying that Mamdani allegedly makes Jewish people feel unsafe. The Nazi tattoo guy gets NONE of that smoke at all. Please make that make sense.

WELL worth reading, folks.

notably his cure is from CAR-T therapy, which is so new I didn’t even learn about it in med school THIS is why we invest in science

no I won't be toning down any rhetoric actually but they can go fuck themselves instead

The tags on this Tumblr post really sum up how I feel as a writer about the current state of fandom, and my increasing lack of motivation to write & share fics

The plot to enslave America. The plot to enslave humanity. They are announcing it because they think we can no longer stop them

Elon Musk basically accused Trump of being a pedophile and then got dinner with him again a few months later. Joe Rogan acted shocked and dismayed about ICE and Iran and now he’s standing behind Trump in the Oval Office. These guys only care about holding onto power through any means necessary

I have a lot of relatives in Alberta. "it's just Alberta/Texas is not different from "it's just marginalized people in THOSE places that don't matter" and listen: it's a very easy slide from those people THERE don't matter to those people don't matter *anywhere*

I like makeover montages.

I've suspected this for since the layoffs picked up...

I'm mad about Star Wars. Have been for 6 years but man, I'm so fucking pissed. A guy gets severed in half in '99. He's fine! Has a whole show coming out. A guy gets swallowed by the "eternal torment" monster in '83. He's fine! Got a whole show out of it. A guy mysteriously disappeared. But he's DEAD

I'm really tired of the inevitability of the cool no bullshit progressive letting me down yes, let's chuck our children's brains into the slop grinder, great idea

These are so importent in four days. I’ll post a thread for the major ones to know about this weekend.

every single one of these fired losers will sycophantically praise trump on the way out and as soon as he dies will claim they were fired for being the only person in the room to dare to stand up to him

There’s already a date onboard for a general strike May 1st, National Strike No work, no school, no shopping www.commondreams.org/news/no-king...

tapping the sign

We're shockingly prone to "cognitive surrender."

How I feel reading 99% of art and media critique these days

there's a strain of politicians in america who believe that simply defeating trump (midterms, 2028) will be sufficient repudiation. but trump has damaged/is damaging america so badly, the level of rebuilding - the cost of *investment*, legal/constitutional change, etc - is going to be staggering.

Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-Ting was demonized and harassed because JK Rowling claimed she was male. Her boxing career was disrupted for over a year. Now, she's been cleared to compete as female after further "sex eligibility reviews." This is going to happen again. www.reuters.com/sports/olymp...

transmisogyny is just misogyny with extra steps. it was always about controlling how we define women so that they fit a profile consistent with cishetero men's desires and "gender critical" feminists played right into it. now any woman who doesn't look "feminine enough" is in the crosshairs.

Please know that ICE in Minnesota isn’t a last month thing. It’s a now thing. And at Nick Universe?

Please share information about #HB249 with people you know online and off, in and outside of Ohio. Lawmakers are counting on people not paying attention.

I honestly haven't had any desire to engage in the Harry Potter franchise since the movies wrapped up -- and that's before Rowling turned out to be a shit human being. No amount of nostalgia can tempt me to give her another dime.

Sometimes it’s complex. This time it’s not. It’s really not. She’s taking the money and using it to oppress, terrorize, and kill an already oppressed minority currently already being terrorized and killed.

Movie TV Tech Geeks #TVFeatures #Willow #Disney #WarwickDavis This 84% Rotten Tomatoes Fantasy Series Was Near-Perfect Until Disney+ Quietly Destroyed It

Outrageous. Stripping Liam Conejo Ramos and his family of asylum is beyond cruel and indefensible. This decision must be overturned. Shame.

Being a single, child free woman is a threat to these people. Remember that whenever people bring up how feminism isnt necessary

Nationwide book banning bill HR 7661 is BAD. Find out more here, including what we can do to help stop it: bookriot.com/hr7661-advan...

on the jim crow travesty that is the SAVE act (gift link)

Let’s be clear on what’s happening here. They’re trying to steal the next election and this is a smoking gun. GOP Senator Mike Lee sees polling that shows Dems gaining ground and the solution isn’t better ideas or better leadership. The solution is rushing to pass the SAVE Act. #SaveActTaxesVoting

These are not detention centers. Detention is brief. These are not temporary. That absolutely will not stop at migrants, and they do not care that people will be consigned to these places to die out of any sort of public oversight. bsky.app/profile/some... 5/?

I'm a sucker for Enemies-to-Lovers and their dynamic intrigued me. Then I stumbled across another Reylo's video essay on YouTube and ended up falling down a rabbit hole and from that point on I was on the Bendemption train and fully shipping them.

“The Affirming Families First Act” redefines “affirmation” as a parent’s right to acknowledge only a child’s sex at birth and not have their rejection of their trans child used against them by any courts or state agencies.

Everyone is Horny and Nobody Fucks

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE: -the KIDS Act -KOSA -the Screen Act -Sammy's Law -the App Store Accountability Act And additionally, oppose: -reforming/sunsetting Section 230 -online age verification/ID laws www.congress.gov/members/find...

Hate when you search a ship on Tumblr and the entire tag is filled with anti posts. 🙄

*stares at all the girls who are going to be kicked out of the stem pipeline because ✨gender stereotypes✨*
