It's such a small thing, but the prime time broadcast editing out the 8 or so seconds of Vance being booed is such an indictment of where we are right now. Just wanton cynical editing of the media record, nobody's the wiser, all to soothe the egos of cowardly tyrants needing to project "power"

If you donate at least $10 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota and show me proof, I'll send you a copy of my first book and I'll even pay shipping. (US only.) (Up to 10 people.)

Vigil for Renee Good here in front of Wisconsin’s capitol building right now:

It's incredibly demoralizing to constantly see the highest institutions of government and academia and the most important and widely seen news outlets knuckle under one after another, but then to see the gulf between that and the bravery of communities and neighbors and teachers - that's something

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

Apocalypse World is not only the most influential RPG of the last fifteen years, it's also the best one I've ever read or played. I've been running the playtest version of the new edition, Burned Over, for the last several months and it's spectacular. Go back it. www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

Fuck, man. This is water in a desert. Thank you, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. I’m rooting for you.

Who's your favorite Jedi? (wrong answers only)

Cornell University Library is hiring two Processing Archivists! Come work with us! jobs.hr.cornell.edu/us/en/job/WD...

The thing is, every time you defend Newsom as a great candidate and what “we” need, you’re telling trans people that you’re willing to throw them under the bus You can sit in my mentions and whine about how I’m criticizing Newsom too much and I will continue to highlight how your transphobia sucks

Alright, my dearies. Here we go. Join us for the ride? www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

JK Rowling is ON RECORD saying she will use any continued profits she earns from the Harry Potter franchise or anything else she makes to fund her rampant anti-trans bigotry. She is telling us all in bold print that she's the bad guy. She celebrates harming children. Find other stories.

I freaking love all of this

Achieved a whole new level of old Italian man today

Kind of feel like it should be bigger national news that the poorest major city in the country is being forced to accept devastating service cuts to our public transit system because PA Republicans actively hate Philly and want to cause us pain

Truly, it’s the racism.

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.

My soror shared this note from a university hiring manager. The market isn’t just wrecked. I don’t think this is just a recessionary pullback. 2,000 applications for one higherEd job is 100% a sign of a structural failure. It’s so horrible. I’m sorry.

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.

This really is what it boils down to, folks, and is what I mean about bracing for a Newsom candidacy (not even close to a guaranteed thing) as compliance in advance. The demands are exceedingly clear. If you aren't prepared to demand this of the party, then you can get fucked, it's that simple

Very cool that cis people can just access hormones willy nilly but trans people have to jump through a million hoops to get the same exact treatment

it is unacceptable for ANYONE to be disappeared. if your solidarity doesn't include sex workers then fuck off.

After 25 FUCKING YEARS of the Democratic Party blaming the left for every election loss because they say we didn’t support the nominee enthusiastically enough, I better see Chuck Schumer wearing a Zohran t-shirt and smiling real soon

This is framed as "lessons for the left," but Lander and Mamdani actually offer lessons for the center: Instead of ruthlessly undermining leftist candidates, emphasize shared values and refuse to amplify right-wing attacks. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who or Transformers.

I had such a blast running this game today. Janaki and Judd are a great table, and I felt like I finally got into my rhythm.

Driving myself insane today compiling lists of things an 18-year-old dude can do that outfits like the NYT thinks are damning versus what they think is just boys-will-be-boys, shouldn’t-ruin-his-life kinda stuff.

Watching state-level Democratic officials balk at endorsing Mamdani and it's like, damn, that "vote blue no matter who" shit dried up real quick all of a sudden, didn't it.

"Hey, y'all. Were here to endorse Andrew Cuomo."

BREAKING: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out after being released from ICE detention. "The Trump administration are doing their best to dehumanize everyone here," Khalil said.

Mahmoud Khalil is free.

The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

I'm so angry. Children are going to die. CHILDREN ARE GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF THIS RULING

We are not a distraction we are real people facing real existential threats

When Black people told you that it is a normal occurrence for police to lie about protest and assaulting officers now you see ... the test run for the justification of authoritarianism always begins in communities of color

Oh hell yes.

Feeling powerless and a little lost? Here's something you can do! Right now, @authorsabb.bsky.social is trying to raise money for @flfreedomread.bsky.social. Fla is a bellwether state when it comes to book bans, so bringing the fight there helps the fight everywhere. I donated $25. Can you?

i don’t even know what to feel

The way it works is that you strip fundamental rights from targets with less political support that people will turn their consciences off to justify persecuting and then eventually the state can do it to anyone, that’s always been the plan bsky.app/profile/pbum...

"Abolish the police" was too radical, we were told. "ok fine how about we just defund the police?" we asked. No, no, still too much. Well here we are and ICE is the gestapo disappearing people for nebulous crimes of saying things.
