Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else? What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

This is your reminder that there is no objective metric by which any of our lives are measured or judged. You are not ahead of schedule or behind schedule or whatever. The voice making contrary statements is lying to you. You are doing the best you can and I’m damn proud of you! 🩵

Mamdani is some sort of savant in dealing with these people, or probably just did what anyone with common sense did and just stroke his ego. Trump is famously easy to manipulate just by pretending to be impressed with him. Also, Trump likes winners. Mamdani won against democratic establishment.

EMERGENCY: I found this meme and I'm about to commit an impulsive decision

Cis allies can pair up and call the authorities on each other for being trans in a public bathroom, exhaust due process until medical records are subpoenaed, and tire the cops with it until they complain so much about enforcing it that they stop bothering, like they did for non-crime hate incidents.

And they're clowning on China for being authoritarian Lol

Both ways are funny

I quit the former Twitter two years ago this week, and I am here to tell you that my online life got a lot better for having left it. In two years I've not been tempted to go back, and I haven't felt any penalty in either career or community for not being there. It's nice to be here and not there.

Elon Musk is very explicitly altering the X algorithm to show people content that aligns with his far-right worldview. If you're still posting there and think you can win hearts and minds or something, this is what you're up against. You're never going to win a rigged game.

There is something objectively hilarious in the Saudi government buying the esports awards, then giving the team they also own 'best org' twice in a row

Insane to do a DBS check for onlyfans. Whos the vulnerable party here?!

MINUS FOUR THIS MORNING ...this is because I complained isn't it

I've been noticing more and more disregarding of non conventional gender identites from within the trans community if the person has annoyed them and can we not? Knock it off.

Regardless of how I feel about her that is a fucked thing to call a genderfluid person.

E46 touring vs Gigantor the F150. I love going into the parking lot and not being able to find my car because it's between two giant trucks.

Williams, a reporter based out of Tennessee and not affiliated with any of the major prestige outlets, is consistently effective at exposing and creating public pressure on racist bigots trying to mobilize politically.

It is possible for journalism to still have a tangible and relatively immediate impact for good and if larger outlets aren’t doing that, it’s a choice.

the motel knows where it is at all times. it knows this, because it knows where it isn’t.

Nvidia earnings call today apparently

Good people don't quit jobs, they quit: • Low pay • Bad bosses • Office politics • Toxic workplaces • Micro-management • Feeling undervalued • Lack of opportunities • Zero work-life balance It's 100% okay to leave jobs that no longer serve you. Remember, it's important to be happy where you work.

First day at Cloudflare, pushed a little update and taking the afternoon off.

Fear and Greed Index is now 9, Extreme Fear. The index is likely to remain in fear territory for weeks, based on historical patterns. Extreme fear doesn't guarantee an immediate bottom, but it does mean prices are resetting.

BREAKING: Oracle's $300 billion OpenAI deal is already underwater, now worth a NEGATIVE $74 billion, per The Financial Times. Since the deal was announced in September, Oracle has now lost $315 billion in value.

Looks like if all goes well I'll receive a call for a first appointment regarding hormones before or on December 3rd yay :3

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

America's first ever esports champion was Rebecca Heineman, a trans woman. She went on to found some of your favorite video game studios and worked on your favorite video games. Next time you see somebody rail about 'woke' and 'DEI' Remember that. Remember her.

As a biologist, It really is a great analogy. Also trees. It's like saying, "There are trees and grass, you have to be one or the other." Ok... where is the line that defines "is a tree?" what about bush-like grasses? Palm trees? NON-tree palms? What about horsetails and their tree-like ancestors?

Damn they shut down the one good politics reporters

Two years ago I interviewed a 31-year-old NY state assemblymember about a 7-year-old girl killed by an SUV driver in his district. I hung up the phone, astonished that I'd talked to a legislator who so thoughtfully articulated what actually needs to change on our streets. He'll make a great mayor
