People need to realize that the New York Times is going to pivot to "self-ID" now, essentially to build up the next fight, a total end of all legal recognition for transgender people. A handful of states have already started passing these laws, and it is absolutely what they are going for next.

Stunning, stunning photos and incredibly precious stories of formerly enslaved people here. Happy Juneteenth, y'all. None of us are free until we are all free.

I need all of #lawsky to see this video from a Colorado appeals court livestream yesterday. I am in actual tears. Sound *incredibly* on, the subtitles will not help.

David R. Hagen just solved a small mystery that I mentioned 13 years ago in the mouseover text of a comic drhagen.com/blog/the-mis...

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

getting older and watching the US move pretty fast towards broader acceptance of gay people gave me hope that fewer trans kids would have childhoods like mine. hard to have that hope today. if you’re cis & know a trans kid, no you don’t, but also: bend over backwards to help them survive this.

Modern history is a history of regimes giving infinite grace to fascists. It must cease.

one thing i think people should ask the court conservatives given this ruling is what, specifically, was wrong with plessy?

This is a day when all the "allies" come out and say "our thoughts and prayers are with you" to their singular trans friend and then pat themselves on the back for a job well done and go back to reading their bad wizard books and eating their hate chicken. Performative allyship is bullshit.

It's not a distraction FROM removing healthcare, it's a genocidal policy that ALSO lays the groundwork for broader healthcare restrictions. The eradication of trans people is a goal in and of itself, and it is also part of a broader effort to shrink what (& who) is acceptable in society.

We're living through unfathomably terrible times for civil rights and human rights. If you've got the chance to vote in a primary this year, I recommend voting for the furthest left person on your ballot. The "centrists" are not ready for these times and will bargain away our rights.

ICYMI: Jaws turns 50 this week. I wrote about what's happened to sharks in the last 50 years, and how much of their decline can be blamed on the movie. therevelator.org/jaws-at-50-s...

“I wasn’t going to let him hurt me.” I said, “If I thought he was going to hurt you, I’d be disposing of his body. I don’t fuck around, either.”

The accused assassin allegedly used data brokers to track down the Democratic lawmakers he murdered. Congress doesn't need any more proof that selling data to anyone with a credit card is deadly. Every American's safety is at risk until Congress cracks down on data brokers.

if you're trans or black or muslim, everything you do is considered political, but if you're a christian terrorist, you're just an apolitical part of The System (derogatory)

Father's Day comes to Isengard

NWSL club @angelcity.com handing out “Immigrant City Football Club” shirts to fans with “Los Angeles is for everyone/es para todos” on the back. Also includes a card with a statement of support for LA’s immigrant communities.

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

We are a proud country of Haters. Kendrick performing Not Like Us during halftime of the Superbowl is the most American shit that has ever happened

Anyone who has ever lived in LA county will not be surprised it was the sheriff's department that escalated

So basically the protests were peaceful except that two competing cop departments accidentally went to war with each other

Kiké Hernandez speaks out while his team stays silent.

i actually really needed this today

Let’s not mince words on exactly what the MAGA movement is.

we already lost our industrial base to china, now they're beating us at our own culture

Bibi would sell her soul for armpit scritches.

I said "Nevermore" didn't I, motherfucker? Didn't I?

So there is a profile of me in the New Yorker: www.newyorker.com/culture/pers...

ya gotta watch till the end. really cannot stress that enough.

wow I wonder if the cops who lied about the sitting senator even though everything they did was on tape are also being less than honest about the presence of violent agitators at the protests in los angeles. they might even not have told the entire truth about other protests

Shut down the Senate.

It’s been a day. So here’s a chance to do a little good. This is Clem. He’s a patient at my old vet in Austin. They think he got hit by a car. My vet spent hours stabilizing him. If you have a few bucks to add to his GFM, that would be amazing. He’s got an amazing vet team on his side

Important kitten content.

This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

Mariners baseball baybeeee

This is going to be a fucking disaster.

The Dowager Queen Nutmeg Macaron von Snickerdoodle

the fact most reports are leaving out that he was killed protecting his husband during a homophobic hate crime where his dead dog's skull was placed in their mailbox as a threat is leaving some important details out i think

I do not know what I just spent the last 13 minutes of my life watching but it was damn delightful and that is the TRUTH youtu.be/7Rg_as0l3AY

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.
