I will say that I find it weird that a lot of people are like "this is the moment that will tip us into violence" when a Minnesota politician was assassinated in her home 2 months ago and someone literally shot Trump in the head last year. how exactly is charlie kirk the tipping point

ok. let's all have a 36-72 hour debate about the efficacy of political violence.

phd is like being beaten with a metal rod while a really interesting documentary plays in the background

a big mistake we made was computers *should* be refrigerator sized and live in special basements, not ride along in everyone's pocket like an evil Jiminy Cricket

oh haha when i first saw your text i thought it said "brian cancer" and i was like, Uhh wait who's this brian guy? lol but fuck dude, that's awful about your kid

TW. Needs to be widely shared with cisgender people, especially politicians. Utterly horrifying that Britain has come to this- that most of Britain is just looking the other way while a whole community is being eliminated from society because of lies and hatred. transactual.org.uk/wp-content/u...

The ‘politics of eternity’, says Timothy Snyder, is nostalgia for a mythical past. Putin blames the West, Trump blames migrants, Reform UK blames both. Truth doesn’t matter, only enemies. A thought-provoking read by Marc Ainge ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk @marcainge.bsky.social

This. A 2023 Oxfam report called every billionaire a policy failure. My thoughts on this from a few months ago: buttondown.com/surekhadavie...

This is no accident. The groups behind age-verification laws have been explicit that they regard "gender ideology" and nearly any representation of LGBTQ+ existence as pornography AV is government censorship. Platforms are either designating LGBTQ+ content NSFW or removing it all together.

Study finds A.I. LLMs advise women to ask for lower salaries than men. When prompted w/ a user profile of same education, experience & job role, differing only by gender, ChatGPT advised the female applicant to request $280K salary; Male applicant=$400K. thenextweb.com/news/chatgpt...

JD Vance is suggesting that neo-Nazis and the descendents of confederate soldiers have more claim to being part of this nation because they're white than immigrants who believe in the Declaration of Independence. This kind of blood and soil nationalism is indistinguishable from classic fascism.

one of the most dehumanising things happening to trans ppl is the dismissal of our persecution as a 'distraction'.

donald trump killed a plane full of people on purpose

The failure to reckon with transphobia as a currently central motivation of the far right will continue to plague those disturbed by its rise for a decade or more Rather than standing with trans people many liberals have pursued appeasement and helped the wider shift to the far right in the process
