the basic logic of plessy — that the constitution has no bearing on social inequality — undergirds every roberts court ruling on the state’s ability to deal with the effects of racism from parents involved to calais.

I've always loved this performance because he plays it completely genuinely. he knows the choreography, his costume is tailored and well suited to his body, the entire vibe is silly and celebratory instead of showing quiet distaste for what he's doing, as a lot of men would

I agree. This is proof we can protect kids on social media without requiring people to enter their government ID before accessing content online. #Savespeech

“The court has always been a key part of the political process and is central to the political consequences of this moment. Roberts just doesn’t like the accountability that comes along with being a part of the political process in the U.S.”

It's absolutely hilarious how the way the 1890's were viewed in pop culture from the 1920's-1960's is EXACTLY the same as how the 1950's were viewed from the 1970's-1990's. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_Nin...

US judge releases Jeffrey Epstein's purported suicide note

The fish lives in just one spot in Death Valley. Wildlife officials managed this iconic fish for decades, and last spring, just as the Trump administration was laying off scientists, the wild population of this fish plummeted to only 20. Officials then took an irrevocable step. n.pr/4wgtwoC

and again, all of this is happening in the name of “equal protection”

i really think medical providers should make parents who skip these things sign a waiver where they have to acknowledge every horrible thing that can happen if their kid gets sick.

Can we just admit at this point that the Trump Administration just hates black women in public life? Can we?

30 House Democrats sent a letter urging the Trump administration to publicly acknowledge Israel’s undeclared nuclear weapons program, and breaking a bipartisan policy of silence dating to a secret 1969 agreement between President Richard Nixon and Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir.

The FDA stopped the publication of studies about the safety of vaccines to protect against covid-19 and shingles in recent months, a spokesman for the Health and Human Services Department said.

Can't stop thinking about this comment on a Northernlion slay the spire video

r/datahoarders has been on wellness check status for like six months now it’s bleak.

2024: Lol, calm down, stop being hysterical. Trump isn't canceling elections. They're run at the state level anyway! 2026 [person at the state level, in Louisiana, after a Supreme Court decision]:

I think this is a very useful clip because when I say that “10 years of this man has done immeasurable damage to the social fabric of this country” what I mean is, in exemplary form, the children who came into consciousness while being told that their country’s democracy is a scam by those in power.

actively insane times that politicians can say that women (and people who can get pregnant) are incubators, not people. these people deserve to be [redacted] and [redacted].

Wow 🤩 The Weather Channel posted this.

The Trump administration is closing the office responsible for investigating misconduct and abuse in the immigration detention system, per an email obtained by HuffPost

This is for *your* kids, you understand. The tech elites send *their* kids to private, screen-free Montessori schools. They know exactly what they're doing.

The Trump administration is evicting hundreds of bison from federal grasslands in Montana, siding with ranchers and Republican leaders over environmentalists and tribal leaders.

This was the worst fucking podcast I have ever come across. They had to go to Europe to find an adult trans person who transitioned as a kid who was willing to speak with them.

The Trump administration has directed national recreation areas, seashores, wildlife refuges and other public lands to immediately lift dozens of restrictions on hunting and trapping, internal Interior Department documents show. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/c...

Wow, the NYT really campaigned hard to get Azeen Ghorayshi a Pullitzer for her transphobic reporting and podcast. She didn't get it but was a finalist for it despite several trans subjects of her reporting and their families speaking out about they felt betrayed by her coverage and framing.

If the Democrats let Republicans have this INSANELY easy W, I am going to be apoplectic. This shit polls like chlamydia. Get on the other side of it now and be loud about it.
