Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison. Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families. The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

pedophilic behavior

You just can’t successfully appropriate far right aesthetics without participating in it

This fallacy isnt new in human rights issues. e.g, when women demanded that the law change to make spousal rape illegal in the UK, there was a group of men claiming this took away their rights. (go google, you'll see their banners) So you see, its never true that a real right given, subtracts one.

Seriously, nobody likes a grass or a jobsworth and we should be (correctly) framing people who enforce oppressive rules that way more often.

I turn blind eyes to illegal shit in public toilets most times I go out, "forthcoming rules" fuck offfffff

all the fake AI trash really contradicts one of the main ways we're told capitalism operates, with capitalists identifying wants/needs & developing products & services to meet those. turns out you can skip that step & just pretend. nigh everyone hates AI and it makes no money but it's everywhere

I believe that, in no uncertain terms, A.I. as we know it today is a technology designed explicitly to destroy consensus reality, undermine human labor, and estrange its users from other human beings and ultimately themselves. I do not use it and will not accept its supposed "inevitability."

Mom’s a lib, Calvin is a lefty.

I cannot emphasize enough that this is the fastest way to kill these AI projects; don't hate use them, don't engage with them to try and 'break' them, just ignore them. Product that doesn't move units gets discontinued, if you buy it to destroy it, you still buy it, which is all they care about!

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

WOW this is obnoxious. And also telling, I think, that these guys plow past the consent and will of others. Rape culture doesn't just show up in sex because rape is about power. The imperious arrogance and entitled behavior are quite familiar

My favorite tyrant joke: a man comes every day and peers at the front page of the newspaper without buying it. The newspaper vendor says, "what are you looking for?" "An obituary." "Obituaries aren't on the front page." "This one will be."

The Labout Party truly is Margaret Thatcher's greatest achievement, as they happy to let hunger strikers die.

Did you know that from tomorrow, Qualtrics is offering synthetic panels (AI-generated participants)? Follow me down a rabbit hole I'm calling "doing science is tough and I'm so busy, can't we just make up participants?"

Canada is supposed to be a beacon of pro-LGBTQ+ acceptance in the face of the fascist United States but if you look closely at how it's passing anti-trans legislation it starts to turn just as red

They made me do 12 interviews. Then they rejected me based on my resume.

Again I say: how fucking interesting that remote work technology is bad and not worth adopting despite all research pointing to productivity gains, but genAI which offers NOTHING is so important to adopt and force on people who have no use for it despite all the horrible things genAI does

Genitally-Obsessed Bigotry is a luxury belief, a huge problem for a humane world, and a patriarchal project to enslave all women and gender nonconforming people.

Fun fact, Kenwood Ladies' Pond and its actual members voted to allow trans women to use that space Sex Matters, who don't use that space, took issue with that. Nothing says feminism by telling women you know what they want more than they do

Public health officials need to admit to the public and their political masters that the old ways don’t work anymore. They need to admit that they cannot do it alone. They need to ask for and accept support from other fields, like engineering and industrial hygiene. We need all the expertise.

X-mas

A generation of people died, more women are incarcerated than anywhere else, the military is murdering people bc of “drugs,” DHS is kidnapping ppl because of “drugs” yet some don’t want to stop saying the word “druggie” or “addict”. Being dehumanizing is not a way to defeat fascism.

Calling awful people “druggies” doesn’t make them less awful but it does make it easier to ignore all the people using drugs and dying early death bc they don’t like being treated without dignity.

Almost 2x as many people died from drug overdose than car accidents this year. And liberals insist on more policing, more jails, and no healthcare.

The lesson we should take when powerful people use drugs is that lots of people use drugs, and those people deserve housing, healthcare and dignity.

People dispute whether or not that one was a victory for the labor movement, but absolutely no one disputes that it was a defeat for the coal company.

Historically, this kind of behavior against peaceful union protests often resulted in things catching fire or being destroyed that were very expensive. Often more expensive than simply paying people adequately. Would be unfortunate if people repeated history rather than learning from it

But Fox News said...

The GOP is never going to disavow Trump because the primary goal is to be in power. He knows that.

Every time.

we need to conduct a clinical trial with hundreds of house fires to determine if house fires are actually bad for people before we can say for sure whether or not that's what killed him

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

Also, you know whose legal expenses are not paid for even if they were policy makers at the same level as the governor? His victims.

I have come to the conclusion that all gambling should be made illegal again; or at the very least, must all be conducted in person at bookies.

More friendly advice from your mortal enemies.

beyond the thin veneer of concern behind all of these opeds is the much simpler truth that their authors desperately want to describe something that is very obviously their problem (fewer people want to post in the venues they like more) as though it were our problem

Feverishly working on this

Remember, Mr. Rogers' original comment was intended for CHILDREN. Children need comfort, and their power is obviously very limited. We're adults. We do need comfort, but we also need to take action. And what you'll find is the more you do, the better you'll feel. Look for the helpers and join them.

The summary isn't even true. Chomsky wrote absolutely florid and glowing stuff about Epstein looks like they're doing damage control over this? bsky.app/profile/symb...

He was buddies with a pedo but in a tasteful, honorable way

Posting the sign so I can tap it when necessary.

I happen to think that Rob Reiner had a much bigger cultural impact than Charlie Kirk did.

hey is anyone else really fucking exhausted

The thing is that empirics don’t matter for racism. Doesn’t matter ultimately if it’s the shooter who is Muslim or the savior or if both are. If those intent on our destruction cared about the facts we wouldn’t be here.
