i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

The arguments minimizing death counts and civilian casualties in Israelās war on Gaza were obvious bullshit at the time. The arguments got more ghoulish and divorced from reality as the war progressed. I donāt think anyone ever believed them, they just went with whatever was useful at the time.

Now that you're (justly) angry about Jimmy Kimmel, did you know that Palestinian Americans were evicted in 2023 and 2024 for flying Palestinian flags in their windows? It's true. I have a case before the Seventh Circuit about it.

The thing about streaming services is that their bread & butter are households that sub and forget - ppl who go months w/o actually using the product but enjoy having the option at their fingertips. They're the first to go in a boycott (it costs nothing to cancel) and they're the hardest to get back

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

This will go unstated during all the coverage of Tyler Robinson, but once again we have a case where the shooter was apprehended not because of the competence of the FBI or law enforcement, but because someone turned him in. The expensive and intrusive mass surveillance tools didnāt do a thing here.

Every WSJ journalist and other journalist who pushed the lie that the shooter was pushing "transgender ideology" is as bad as journalists who pushed anti-Jewish libel in Nazi Germany. Nazis are openly calling for violence against trans people under the assumption the shooter was trans.

I think we each draw the line between art and artist for ourselves but JK Rowling boasts about using her Harry Potter money to fund her anti-trans hate campaign. At this point the line is not arbitrary. It is very very clear and it's disappointing how many people are willing to cross it for money.

One of the best, most pro-democracy voting reforms possible is to *move local elections to even years*, to sync them up with other elections & boost turnout. LA & SF have both done it, to immense effect. Now New York City might do it! Very cool.
