UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second. We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Dismissed from the military for being trans? Hyatt Executive Security has a job for you!

I love my governor

There should be no forgiveness for Ezra Klein, Gavin Newsom, or anyone else who whitewashed Charlie Kirk's image in the wake of his death. They participated in a cleanup job that is facilitating Kirk's status as a "martyr." They have had a hand in the harm the administration will do in Kirk's name.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Charlie Kirk in his own words.

Contextualize these for us, Sally, please. Point out the civility here.

Oh, I have good news.

I’m enjoying Marlon Wayans’ take on Snoop revealing himself as a homophobic jackass:

SACABAMBASPIS!

If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: If you want to believe it, check it twice ::clap clap:: Doesn’t matter if it’s awful Doesn’t matter if it’s nice If it confirms your bias, check it twice! ::clap clap::

/11 Congress, which could pass legislation to reinforce the Constitutional order, won’t, because it’s made up of people who are hostile to that order, indifferent to it, or completely ineffectual at enforcing it.

I’m told I need to find a way to live together, in harmony, with these loathsome bigots, and I don’t really feel any desire to try. I would rather work to undermine them, to humiliate them, to deny them peace or joy.

Want to watch these clips later. This movie stuck in my head.

The way we win future elections is by having politicians who genuinely want to turn this country around. Pick the Mamdanis. Ditch the Cuomos.

Chicago is safer under Brandon Johnson than it has been in DECADES.

LLMs tokenize content and respond basically with a rough statistical approximation after a tokenized input with resulting tokens. There's no intelligence at play, it's a pattern matching and probability based generation. With a ton of pre- and post-processing to make it look smart.

Do it!

Still thinking about Newsom. For a Democratic leader to consent to a framework that portrays trans people as a group that is trying to take something away from other people is flatly unforgivable. It is what the right does. And a Democrat who will do it to one group will do it to any group.

‘“Nature has its way of taking out the weak and the not so well and the injured. The eagle likely thought it would be able to take it out quite easily,” Sequeira [the Ontario-based photographer] said. “But, it wasn’t.””

Newsom has to go. The Charlie Kirk thing was bad enough, but attacking a vulnerable minority is abhorrent. He isn't being reasonable--the science says trans athletes should play!
