GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

Been seeing this a lot lately. MAGA folks calling judges Trump appointed “leftist” the moment they rule against him for unconstitutional orders. Funny how quickly “loyalty” turns into “betrayal” when the law doesn’t bend their way.

🚨BREAKING: Illinois filed a lawsuit Monday to block President Donald Trump’s attempt to send hundreds of Texas National Guard troops in Chicago, saying the deployment infringes on the state’s “sovereignty and right to self-governance.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The only person in prison for their crimes - the rest are all free and one is even the president.

TIL that we’ve had 25% inflation over the last 5 years, which is the highest rate of inflation (over a 5 year period) we’ve had in my entire life, so at least there’s numbers to back up why everything feels so awful lately

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

My partner made pozole tonight because all summer I whined about wanting pozole but he said it's a cold weather dish so he made it now that it's getting cold

It was never about "doing it the right way." 1/4

If ICE agents are proud of what they're doing, then why do they cover their faces like cowards, refuse to identify themselves, and hide behind anonymity?

I still got tons of LED Maw Neon signs, grab em while you can~ Please RT to help out a small artist! shop.succulentscribbles.com/product/neon...

Woke up last night over and over thinking about this. Remembering the first time as a baby social worker that a middle schooler told me about watching his cousin get arrested by ICE and how his world broke. These kids will never forget the feel of those ties, or trust freely, or feel half as safe.

My art queue is very light if anyone would like a piece from me with a week or two turn around ^^ 🎨 www.sitaduncan.com

These people were enslaved as laborers for a call center soliciting church donations in case you’re wondering the exact level of where we went wrong as a human species

“don’t be bigoted towards AI.” your AI data centers are poisoning Black communities as we speak, please get some fucking perspective. jesus christ

Worth always keeping in mind that the Guardian has a commercial partnership with OpenAI, so nothing it writes about AI can be trusted

Kamala Harris tried to warn us. Donald Trump is an unserious person who’s a serious threat to us all.

I feel crazy when I speak to anyone who doesn't know what's happening in the world around them. They live in their own safe little bubble, completely and willingly oblivious. I can't respect it, and no one should.

This is one of those cases where someone is using as many leftist signifiers they can as a disingenuous bludgeon to give their own grievances the thinnest gossamer layer of victimhood. It's very similar to how the right believes that minority groups are actually the privileged ones (now), etc.

Comms are open! Today is first come first serve and I'll be taking x6 slots to work on over the next week or so! Please fill out the form to apply: fosbat.art/CommApp Thanks in advance for any support, I really appreciate it!

"made up pronouns" reminder that singular "they" is so old, the first written example (we know of) is spelled "þei"

🚨BREAKING: In a major blow to President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda, the First Circuit Court of Appeals flatly rejected the administration’s attempt to enforce his executive order ending birthright citizenship. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Every official page for the white house being reminiscent of 4chan shit/meme posting of rage bait and bigotry is so fucking embarrassing

These are the people getting huge tax cuts — paid for by cuts to health care for millions of Americans. Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now is meant to distract you from this.

Every artist and animator should know, OpenAI has deemed your work fair game to feed to SORA unless you use their "Opt-Out form".. That they claim exists, but doesn't appear to exist. We need new ways to fight for our creative rights - www.cartoonbrew.com/tech/openai-...

Israel committed piracy by illegally intercepting the #GlobalSumudFlotilla in international waters. Human rights defenders, from 46 countries, including Greta Thunberg, were abducted as nearly 40 vessels carrying aid, for genocide & starvation stricken Gaza, were stopped. #3E

Reminder: they're STILL taking all of our work + we STILL need (especially Cali) signatures on the petition supporting Bill AB412 - the AI Copyright Transparency Act. TLDR= this'll require transparency about what's in AI datasets! Signing takes 1 min. Once done, PLEASE SHARE!! tinyurl.com/4uxbp963

Apple did something very similar to the people of Hong Kong in 2019, removing an app that allowed protesters to track police movements via crowdsourced information: gizmodo.com/apple-sells-...

We’ve gotten several messages that the Trump administration has tampered with federal employees’ email systems, making some people’s automatic Out of Office replies blame the government shutdown on the “radical left.” This was done without the employees’ knowledge.

🚨 “They put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2
