The nuclear block is a good thing

Some MAN dared say that the attorney for the ACLU (who did a great job but happens to be a woman) was “terrible” Can someone come get their misogynist

It’s true it’s not legally complicated It’s just that a fascist anti-immigrant regime is trying to convince the Supreme Court to say that up is down and 2+2=3

please feel free to ignore Supreme Court coverage that lies about the citizenship case being “legally complicated”… www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/u... (via @katz.theracket.news in theracket.news/p/breaking-s...)

For real. I'm not published, but I don't see the point of using AI to write. It's like when I paint, the joy is in mixing the paints, feeling the brush under your hands, and experimenting with what light and air tells you that day so too with words, stories, and the images they invoke

This is fucking egregious. (With alt text)

Oh wait now that I’m employed I can do a MAC makeup consultation What was the other one that does the same? Sephora? LA people do you know a particularly trans-friendly place?

I got divorced and realized I’m not a man lol

Maybe it’s because I’m an eternal immigrant but I agree to the core of my being: the best car is the one that does what you need Flashy cars are a schmuck’s game when cheap and functional is best

The jurisdiction thing Re the 14A, if applied to the 2A, would suggest that well-regulated militias would significantly limit the right to bear arms to tightly-regulated groups with significant gun ownership limits Originalism is a scam

"The suggestion that rising diagnoses may reflect over-medicalisation risks overstating the case and is not clearly supported by the balance of evidence, which is equally consistent with improved recognition" 🫰🏻🫰🏻🫰🏻

Gotta admit it’s funny that the govt lawyer is arguing that when laws use different wording they mean the same thing - the exact opposite of the real legal interpretive canon

I confess I didn't read all of the amicus briefs. Does anyone know if this point was ever made? Because it strikes me as completely fatal to the government's claims around domicile; Congress has permitted many undocumented immigrants to acquire green cards, so why can't they establish domicile?

Good morning!!! We're currently tanking the Artemis II rocket. Propellant is flowing into the core stage -- slow fill for LH2 (the finicky one) and fast fill for LOX.

Facing the third international attempt to wipe out trans people with the "most pro-trans rights party" as our allies

While we wait for NASA’s Artemis II launch, we looked back to 1999, when Hubble observed the Moon’s impact crater Copernicus. Shown is the ray pattern of dust ejected out of the crater when an asteroid slammed into the Moon one billion years ago: https://go.nasa.gov/3MlISWC

New story out this morning from the Washington Examiner saying that it's an open secret inside the Border Patrol that the current Border Patrol Chief has bragged for decades about going to Thailand and Colombia to sleep with a bunch of sex workers. www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investi...

One of the great slogans of our age.

I know everything is awful right now, so something to keep in mind: JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERGALACTIC SPECIAL by me, @nicoleamaines.bsky.social, Travis Moore, @tamrabonvillain.bsky.social and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou comes out in *four weeks* and features the two coolest trans superheroes in comics.

Good morning. Immigrants are #HereToStay.

Global renewable capacity surged in 2025, with 814 GW of new solar and wind installations (more than the entire electricity capacity of the EU), the fastest expansion on record. Ember buff.ly/Css3PHX #ShareGoodNewsToo

Kittleson is known for her in-depth reporting, with a particular emphasis on conflict zones and tribal dynamics in Iraq and Syria.

I need to tidy up some posts from earlier today I extended the cis white man too much leeway and he didn’t care when multiple people told him he was instigating hounding of trans people for his pride That is a defect of character

New centrist resist lib type who aggressively enters trans conversations to bring up Kristi Noem’s husband to feel like they’re doing a virtuous bigotry

I am sad right now

remarkably, all these people were unwilling to do the one thing that could have kept the strait of hormuz open

A story about two comedians on the late night smutty show circuit, competing for gigs to make ends meet, and the passion they cannot deny: HEATED RIBALDRY

idk i don't think it's a purity test to look askance at a person who doubles down on shit when told that they were being hurtful

This is a Ketanji Brown Jackson appreciation post. I will never ever forget what she did for my community today and I will forever be grateful.

Omg I’m trying to think if I’ve missed tdov wishes to anyone

i'm gonna be real i don't think that the Noem's husband is a sissy humiliationist thing is that funny and i really don't like seeing cis people joke about it he's just some fascist who gets off on being called a woman because he's that much of a misogynist dude like it's not that deep

they are calling it the scotus cuck chair

I think some centrist-type people get offended when marginalized folks don't like what certain journalists/commentators/other figures do because marginalized folks, to them, are meant to be seen suffering and not be heard We are cannon fodder and, to them, should not speak up to our betters

i mean everyone must know that the stupid ballroom is a combination old man project and fraud slush fund, right?

I have issues with The Expanse as a series, but there's a memorable line about what happens with the people who fuck with the oxygen supply on an asteroid base And similar reasoning regarding people who want to steal elections would be rather understandable, even the moderate position

This is so fucking funny I started getting into photography back in the chemical photography days (boy daguerrotypes were a pain in the ass to make) a film camera? value plummeted the second DSLRs got affordable for us common folk, and a common thing was to get a digital back for your SLR

A crazily unconstitutional effort to seize control of elections from states by seeking to have the USPS put in place rules to ban the transmission of mail-in ballots that don't form to standards the Trump admin puts into place and for people the Trump admin hasn't verified as a citizen.
