In awe of the strength, beauty & compassion of people who work to free their own spirit and fight for democracy and sanity. Humanity at large - most of all: men - lingers in puberty, and needs their example, big time.

A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for. Kudos, Sir.🌦️

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost

42,500 deaths annually. That's the number projected by a Yale study on the loss of Medicaid coverage due to Trump's disgusting abomination bill.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

Cowards. Of course it's way bigger. The archetype of the 'succesful businessman' is a screw up. Males with energy, sure, but caught in providership and who knows unhappy about it, and finding a way to compensate for the pain of it by taking revenge and screwing the world over for that sweet money.

Veldkamp vindt het "schandalig" wat nu gebeurt. Je zou ook kunnen zeggen dat zijn NSC @partijnsc.bsky.social een koekje van eigen deeg krijgt voor het welbewust kiezen voor coalitie met de PVV, die gewoon doet wat hun DNA is. Omtzigt wist dat.

Ze baalt zo dat Wilders nu de kans op rechts beleid heeft verspeeld. Maar blijkbaar is dat rechtse beleid juist kansloos. Want dat had er dan nu toch moeten zijn, edoch, niemand kan er chocola van maken - t heeft geen antwoorden op de echte vraagstukken en multicrises. nos.nl/collectie/13...

Privatized ICE detention facilities are funded by our tax dollars through gov contracts that pay fees per inmate. They are given quotas and financial incentives to pack the places with maximum prisoners and to cut corners on food and overall living conditions. We pay the cost; they reap the profits.

A problem that runs all the way through men feeling insecure/lonely to women coming forward about sexual assault and being treated like complete shit to the way we treat the homeless and about 1000 other things is that we fundamentally view human vulnerability as something worthy of contempt

Harvard just flipped the switch. They’re not teaching you the Constitution for fun. They’re teaching it because your rights are being gutted in real time while you scroll memes and vote for your own executioners.

If there’s ever a time to get Lindsey Graham the fuck out of the US Senate it’s this one. Lindsay is up for reelection. At a not so opportune time for him. We must compete everywhere. So proud of Lee for stepping up - an incredible South Carolinian who can win.
