🎶 People in the United States have been getting treated this way the whole time 🎶 It’s not a boomerang, it‘s an expansion

Assigned Media is a plucky little trans news site that punches WAY about its weight class. No one else publishes this level of quality trans journalism as frequently as we do - and we do it on a shoestring. We're raising $20K in January to ensure our work can continue to thrive in 2026. Join us!

a CEO is a vibes based position who, upon learning that one woman can make a baby in nine months, reasons that 9 women can make a baby in one month but as a cost saving measure only hires 0.7 women for 29 hours a month to avoid having to pay benefits

I dont know why i expected better of the NRA. The dude was executed for possessing a legally owned firearm that he never brandished. This is one of the easiest layups of a violation of the second amendment I’ve ever seen.

This is, quite literally, our collective duty.

I've heard there's this amendment all about giving individuals and their state the freedom to bear arms in case there's a rogue federal government infringing on their rights. surely its supporters are now are up in arms and standing up for states rights in this moment, right?

Thinking - again, and always - about the Wilhoit quote. About how pointless it has been, in my life, to take at face value what the right wing says it values, and to try to reason with them based on that.

they executed a nurse in the streets and frey and walz are flapping their mouths and saying nothing while democrats are writing checks to ICE

If the US were a geopolitical rival the headlines would be like: US Secret Police Execute Second Dissident In the Streets As Militarized Occupation Enters Sixth Week

I just want to put a fine point on this. The 21st century United States is orders of magnitude more heavily armed with deadlier weapons than any society in history. Even what we consider low gun ownership states have more per capita guns in private homes than say, 2003 Iraq.

Ngl, it's wild watching the US Balkanize in real time.

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

They're already rushing to lie about why they executed a man.

It’s not enough to say Abolish ICE. It’s not enough to vote no on ICE funding. It’s not enough to confront Kristi Noem or Greg Bovino with Stern Words. If you are a leader, what are you doing to protect your community? How are you using your power, privilege, and position to confront this threat?

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

I am done with democrats at this rate. Feckless imbeciles complacent with this shit. We dont even have an opposition party to fascism anymore.

Two days ago, 7 democrats voted to fund that execution

CW: Shooting, murder. This is an execution in the street by ICE.

There’s video floating around. You don’t want to watch it. News feed will be updated continuously. No paywall. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

This weird thing where people are like “ICE is not the Gestapo, they’re slave patrols” and then others are like “ICE is not slave patrols, they’re CPS“ and it’s like ok the guy in charge of ICE is dressing himself like a Nazi so yeah Gestapo but also fascists can learn from more than one thing!!!!!!

If you want to know what people mean when they say Democrats are "controlled opposition," rather than whipping votes against ICE funding, Hakeem Jeffries struck a deal with Republicans to allow Democrats to feign outrage at ICE while still funding the spending package.

The vibe shift in the EU and Canada over the weekend is unlike anything I've ever seen. US hegemony in military and economic alliances is effectively dead. History will look back and wonder how the elites in power not only did nothing to stop it but cheered it on willingly.

In case anyone is still thinks organised transphobia is not violent, they are literally making it legal to r*pe trans immigrants. This is what “gender-critical feminists” REALLY want. They don’t care about “protecting women”, just harming trans people. Cruelty is the Point.

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

Been thinking a lot lately about how much of my life has been about appeasement of this fictional version of the people and the world around me than for myself. Im never really truly myself except when i am alone. I dont know how to take the mask off even if i wanted to and I’m not sure i do. —

I mean, Adobe tried to hold onto the idea that a $50 product should cost over $1000... Its bubbles on top of bubbles even before the AI fuckery. Shit peddlers, they're all shit peddlers.

Adobe's the biggest loser of the AI age because they embraced AI and pissed off their user base in pursuit of people who want free shit. Not a lot of money to be made in that market.

My "What You Need To Know About Tear Gas" thread: First, tear gas is a particulate, not an actual vapor or gas. In some cases, this means you can get some of the tear gas off your clothes by standing in a stiff breeze or strong fan.

This is why I'm disappointed we stopped calling these idiots weirdos and freaks Their entire worldview is based on conforming to an image they have for themselves, the world, etc. If you upset that image, you damage them.

People notice your artistic shortcomings maybe 1% as much as you do.

Mirror your canvas. By far the best way to fix proportion mistakes. "But nobody will see it flipped anyway": Those mistakes are there and they are visible to everyone but yourself. Thats why you need to flip your canvas to stop your brain from autopiloting Keep a hotkey ready if you can for it too

A lot of amazing people in the games industry, but also a good batch of fuck ass clowns cruising on a ego high cause they got a following on AS or work at a ‘prominent’ AAA studio. Worse is the sheep that follow & stay quiet. Never idolize anyone you’ve never met, be yourself, & be humble 🫵🏽

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.
