this is also true in the humanities, publishing, and non-profit management even though those are numerically majority-female fields, men wield disproportionate power

I just signed a petition launched by the gender justice nonprofit UltraViolet demanding that SiriusXM drop Megyn Kelly. Kelly's comments minimizing Jeffrey Epstein's abuse of teen girls are reckless and irresponsible. Pedophile apologists should not have a national platform. app.sosha.ai/s/n7OdeP7G

Get white men to understand they have an identity and have done nothing but talk to us about their identities and how to politically and culturally accommodate their identities for all of history challenge: impossible

Once again @booktrust.org.uk, a UK charity which gifts books to disadvantaged children, is running its Christmas donation drive. I’ve been a BookTrust supporter for many years; please consider making a donation to this excellent cause 📚💖 www.booktrust.org.uk

This is what gender solidarity & collective action to oppress women looks like, Part 4: Jeffrey Epstein funding conferences specifically to exclude & disadvantage women scientists. Many men knowingly participated in this & it wasn't out of class solidarity--physicists aren't billionaires.

The same voices opposing abortion are ALSO targeting birth control access. But we are NOT backing down. Use #ThxBirthControl Day to share your stories and remind everyone why access is so essential 🙌

I'm in medicine and I'm convinced if men experienced period pain even for one day of the year, we would have more treatments on the market qz.com/611774/perio...

Same guy has a WSJ column which he has occasionally used to criticize me, personally I always find out via the hate mail that starts rolling in

This actually is probably correct in a certain way. Punishing women for their existence and operating under the VERY standard medical belief that women are required to be in pain and they should just endure it is a reasonable explanation for why MAHA would come out against pain medication.

Flowstones from the Cradle of Humankind in #SouthAfrica reveal no evidence of intrusion. New work, led by HERI’s Georgina Luti, counters arguments that the flowstones are uniform & intrusive, adding support for their role in dating fossils. 🔗 www.heriuct.co.za/news-content...

Remember corporate democrats did this because of their rich donors. The rich want us to spend money during the festivities. We need to do the opposite. Buy from small businesses, resellers, thrift stores, swap gifts, or make it yourself, but don't buy from big corporations.

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and @meng.house.gov it is time for you to call for @schumer.senate.gov resignation

It seems almost quaint at this point to say it but why not repeat it: if you’re ill and you must be in public please do wear a mask. It may be a small ailment to you but you have no idea what’s going on with the people around you, and they don’t always have the option of removing themselves either.

Absolutely. The far right took over the GOP through the long process of taking over local and county organizations and the left can do the same. It’s not an instant fix but it actually works.

We need to primary all the corporate democrats!

The International Olympic Committee is set to ban trans and intersex women from competition. This is despite the fact that for 20 years, the IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete and only 1 has ever competed and none have ever won a medal. www.the-independent.com/sport/olympi...

This move is based on pseudoscientific nonsense. Just ftr.

🌍WANT To Do Something to Save the World Today? Sounds like I’m joking but I’m not. We have a Special Election here in Tennessee. We have a chance to send a smart, fighter for the people of Tennessee to Congress. @AftynBehn.bsky.social is that person.

*Women receive substantially lower "potential" ratings despite receiving higher performance ratings *Differences in potential ratings account for half of the gender promotion gap *Women’s lower potential ratings do not reflect future performance: women subsequently outperform male colleagues

@durbin.senate.gov threw us all under the bus on his way to retirement. Then, send all his protégés with him. Congresswoman @robinkelly.house.gov wants to replace him, we should make sure she doesn't unless you want more cowards. #Chicago #aca #democrats

Resign!!!

I just want everyone to have the experience of living in dignity with access to sufficient food, safe housing, needed medical care, high quality education, and time to engage with what sparks their curiosity and spirit this should not be controversial 🫠

I agree with this argument. Like many, I am angry with the corporate democrats, but don't leave the democratic party as then you can't vote in the primaries. To change the party to defend people's well being we need to be hyper-engaged with the primaries. youtu.be/ScYUAvFC2sY?...

Bring on the Progressives. Boot out the establishment. I am so sick of them.

They were chosen because they are not up for reelection so they can safely piss off voters. The only answer is you have to hold the entire caucus accountable for the surrender. Every Dem who isn't calling for new leadership ought to be primaried. That, or accept continued failure.

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

It’s a frightening reminder we cannot rely on many elected officials to stick up for the non-elites, for the working class, they will not stand up for the poor. We need to primary them if they lack the ability, stomach, and drive to fight for the people they represent.

This is the message of a failed, feckless, and leaderless party. We need a party with backbone, and the only path to it is through a cleansing primary season. If your Dem is up for reelection, and you aren't damn sure they're fighting the fascists with everything they've got, primary the bastard.

We need to stop religious extremists/ radicals. They are going to cause so much suffering and deaths

if your constituents constantly have to talk you out of screwing them over you're BAD AT YOUR JOB

Of course Gavin Newsom also speaks about the “crisis” of men in the US, as always adopting the framing of the far right. Not a peep about the progressive turn of young women? Let alone how they could power the Democratic Party?

ICYMI: Senator Ron Wyden sounds the alarm on Republicans plan to sneak a nationwide abortion ban into their funding bill. This is why it is so important for women to remain in the fight for our lives!

With SNAP benefits going out late, nonprofits are begging for pet food donations to prevent desperate owners from surrendering their dogs and cats to animal shelters.

The authors ignore James Watson’s behaviours, before, during, and after the discovery of the double helix while trying to downplay his wrong doing. instead they make it clear, Watson had access to her crystallography without her permission. He also had access to her notes and data and thoughts…#1

Presumed lethal coalitionary aggression in bonobos—in this case females banded against a male who attempted infanticide. It’s the second instance of presumed lethal aggression in bonobos (too my knowledge).
