my only hope for people still making sub vs dub arguments in 2025 is that they eventually find their way out of the trenches and rejoin modern society

remember this; try if the things some people are trying look useless or stupid to you maybe they are, find something that seems smart. and keep an eye on whether or not the shit other people are trying works.

Hey, if the media is interested in a cover-up of a senile president who's not really in control of his White House, there's one going on right now?

A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from dismantling the Department of Education and ordered the administration to reinstate employees fired in a mass termination. This can't happen without congressional approval, she ruled. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

in ~5 years we have gone from trans healthcare being legal basically everywhere to most states banning it for minors and a federal ban on medicaid coverage

The GOP murder-bill that just passed in the house is a disaster for many and a direct assault on trans people. Don't feel helpless, take action. Such as this great thread 👇

The bill provision targets trans people only. This is why I was never a fan of "this will hurt cis people too" arguments. No, it won't. They always carve out cis healthcare from hormone bans. The argument just leaves you unarmed because you failed to argue how IT HURTS TRANS PEOPLE.

It bears repeating that 5calls.org makes it incredibly easy to contact your reps. They give you the phone numbers, a script to read, and a run down of what is happening with each issue. I just called my senators in my pjs half awake and I'll probably do it some more later

I'm not going to sit back and let them kick trans people off fucking Medicaid. I'm sorry but that's deadly. NO.

This passed 215-214. We're going to lose our healthcare because 3 senior Dems have died this year. We lost Roe because Ginsburg didn't retire. We lost the election because Joe ran for reelection. Our country is being destroyed because geriatric Dems can't retire and let go of power.

Gerry Connolly is the sixth congressman to die in office in just over a year. All were Democrats. Let's go there: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/gerry-conn...

The big mistake was letting them get away with calling it artificial intelligence in the first place

this is the moment from Microsoft's live stream of Build when the day 2 keynote is interrupted by a Palestinian tech worker. Microsoft's head of CoreAI, Jay Parikh, briefly stopped his keynote and Microsoft muted the stream

They think we're stupid and the worst part is that a ton of folks will take the defense at face value because they will never acknowledge western society's role in enabling this unless forced to.

If you haven't already done so, you can start now. You don't gotta say anything, no justifications, nothing. This is something you can start doing now.

TIL that after the shooting death of CEO Brian Thompson UnitedHealthcare approved many life-saving medical procedures it has been holding out on because of sudden internal panic and public scrutiny. So, Luigi (innocent until proven guilty) probably saved more lives than he took.

I keep having to restate to comrades that Tru*p is broadly unpopular and that this is an ACTUAL opportunity. Even some organizers seem to be convinced that this guy is more popular than he is. His fans are not THE COUNTRY. Stop being propagandized by the terrible US mainstream media.

I know lawyering up and shutting up is scary. Believe me. I do. But you CANNOT talk your way out of an arrest or detention. You CAN talk your way into charges, arrest, or detention. And you'd be amazed how often the response to lawyering up is just letting you go.

Cannot recommend the documentary "Delicate Balance" enough - Mujica is extraordinary in it. Uruguay was lucky to have him. I'd give just about anything to have a leader like him in the U.S., especially right now. pragda.com/film/delicat...

The MAGA State Department is not just being gratuitously cruel to trans employees. Deliberately outing & misgendering them in communications will endanger civil servants & foreign service officers abroad. They want trans people to quit government, to disappear from public life, or to just die.

Pepe Mujica, the anarchist guerilla who became president of Uruguay, has passed on. He leaves behind as good a legacy as it's possible to leave. So it goes. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...
