Don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it don’t

The New York Times rolling up its sleeves to do the hard work of normalizing the idea that women should not have the right to vote.

Getting ready to wave as Artemis II orbits past 👋🚀

remember the rocket launch is happening in spite of the trump administration, not because of it

www.microsoft.com/en-us/micros... is it good to build an entire economy and software infrastructure on this

i hope everyone around me on the subway enjoyed my look of abject disgust as i read this.

We continue to live with unnecessary risks from COVID because the government is asleep at the wheel on this. www.theguardian.com/world/2021/j...

No April fools jokes please, this timeline is enough of a joke 🤡

FUN FACT: You personally interact with dozens, even hundreds of artists and storytellers on this website every day who dedicate 0% of their resources to directly harming trans people. Many of them have comics, or albums, or podcasts, or even fantasy novels available for your guilt-free enjoyment!

In all seriousness though, elder millennial jokes aside, I think it’s important to resist the media framing of any mainstream resistance to the status quo as just the shrill nonsense of middle-aged women with nothing better to do. This isn’t the first time they’ve run out this playbook.

This is beautiful 💜

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications Influence is being bought Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy - ban it now www.thecanary.co/global/world...

The difference between these two is racism

Given that my country is hosting an IOC event in 2032, and the IOC are committing to policies that violate the human rights of transgender and intersex people, I cannot support holding the games after next in Brisbane. Let’s face it, LA 2028 is already looking like a rerun of Berlin 1936. #IOC

The public will be banned from Victoria Park in Brisbane from 1 June until 2032 to build the Crisafulli Colosseum. The land was to remain in public hands & be heritage listed before Jarrod Bleijie made his property grab. #qldpol

•Joh Bjelke-Petersen •Campbell Newman •David Crisafulli It beggars belief that Queenslanders continue to vote for the LNP. Before the election, Crisafulli gave his solemn promise that he would protect Victoria Park and not build any new stadiums Like those other LNP leaders, none can be trusted

Oh did you want 3300 words from me on today's IOC sex testing rules? An essay on the nature of evidence and why we can't seem to stop getting stuck in the same traps around sex and gender in sports? Wow lucky you!! www.coyotemedia.org/the-olympics...

Look, all I'm saying is: let's hear them out.

Spread this rumour

*bangs pots and pans* BOOK REC LIST COME GET YOUR BOOK RECS *bangbangbang* BOOK RECS FOR THE MASSES COME GET

Some YA fantasy authors who to my knowledge have never funded an attempted trans genocide: Terry Pratchett Diana Wynne-Jones Garth Nix Suzanne Collins Susan Cooper Phillip Pullman Rick Riordan Pierce Brown Sheri S. Tepper V. E. Schwab Rachel Hartman Alex Pheby Alan Garner Ursula Le Guin And more!

Hey Blueksy, if you're looking for magic books and magic school books that *aren't* horribly exclusionary, let me share some fantastic examples with you. #BookSky 💙📚

More than 87 public libraries and archives in Gaza have been partially or completely destroyed by Israel’s genocide. buff.ly/ZlOmxuF

I've been working on this piece for a few months, and I won't lie it's hurt to go from hearing the suffering inflicted by this transphobic theocracy to seeing progressives sing its praises. The bishops' ban is the most extensive trans healthcare ban in the country. It deserves way more attention.

wow cuba developed an alzheimer’s treatment that actually works and they’re launching human trials in canada but americans don’t get to have it because better dead than red that’s right i’d rather forget my own children and wake up every day confused and be subsumed by oblivion than have healthcare

Everybody who tried to argume with me about the water and energy consumption of "AI" abd data centers can go jump in a fucking lake. While they can still find any.

Just a year ago, we heard reducing the deficit was so important Elon Musk had to fire as many scientists, forest rangers and Black women on the government’s payroll that he could find. Now? 🤷🏾‍♂️

I was wondering how long it would be before WFH became the recommendation for saving fuel - not long at all, it seems

I get the temptation to tell ourselves it won’t be that bad, but people insisting to me that I’m overreacting to *the state of things* while my gut is telling me that this will be /bad/ is making me feel insane.

the government is saying “underage girls are testing positive for pregnancy at ICE detention centers” instead of saying “ICE agents are raping & impregnating underage girls.”

@theabigailthorn.bsky.social girrrrrl! What a pull ✨

Recall how much "how will you pay for that" hand wringing came from conservatives, centrists, and media folks when it involved student debt relief. www.npr.org/2022/09/27/1...

I was thinking about why I’m still on Instagram, and a big reason was so I could see what artists I had followed were making/posting; but I don’t see any of them on my feed anymore, bar like 2. Meanwhile, I follow an artist on BlueSky, I see their work. Funny how it works so much better here.

What the fucking fuck

Could oil hit $200 a barrel? Analysts no longer think it’s far-fetched https://aje.news/imuh78

After the head of ICE in Central Florida pleaded no contest to exposing himself and masturbating in front of a 16-year-old girl (which was witnessed by her mother and caught on mall security cameras), ICE allowed him to apply his vacation and sick days to reach retirement and collect a full pension.

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

conversely, when you murder scores of civilians across the middle east in the name of jewish safety and assert that any jew who opposes this isn’t really jewish, you normalize antisemitism

Outside my flat, I hear a voice say “Alan, you are being so fucking obstreperous right now.” A woman appears, walking backwards, holding a taut thrumming leash, straining hard against her. Then, seemingly minutes later Alan finally appears: the smallest, lowest, muscliest sausage dog in all creation

Because it's Australian, it's trying to kill you with cuteness. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

In light of literally everything either having gone to, or about to go to shit, has anyone mentally switched over to austerity mode? Like, are you thinking about what you’ll need to/be forced to cut back on until shit returns to whatever the fuck counts as normal these days?

hell YEAH I pulled an episode from my favourite Trek series

Oiiii SICK ☁️☁️☁️

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.
