PSA: When a deaf or HoH person asks you to repeat something, please say the *exact same words* over again. Rephrasing is counterproductive! When we say "Say that again?" we're asking for a second try at parsing your sequence of sounds. Rephrasing means we have to start all over instead!

Nothing sums up the state of affairs for transgender Americans quite like the US Supreme Court denying trans people life-saving healthcare at the same time that the Trump administration shuts down suicide prevention programs for LGBTQ people. These bastards want us all dead.

Counterpoint: Women are ahead of the curve on knowing AI is bullshit. www.ft.com/content/7f0f...

transition care for trans people is life saving healthcare. the only regret with my transition is that i didn’t start when i was younger. fuck everyone who is cheering on the destruction legal trans healthcare, and fuck those indifferent to it

Resign already, @schumer.senate.gov. Get out the way.

In related news, Chuck just dirty deleted his extremely shite post about how trans kids are a distraction from everyone else losing their health care.

I regret not tracking him down and telling him I loved him before he died trapped in an upside down humvee in an open sewer.

yes they are. they are christians and you have to deal with that

The Achilles heel of every American political figure is a legendary thing not seen in America for many an age, a basic follow up question

I was already Having A Day yesterday, one of those days when the cognitive dissonance of our current nightmare catches up with me and I'm just soul sick.

it is a weird feeling to watch the execrable Tucker Carlson do his thing and suddenly understand what the people who like him are seeing. He does this eyes-to-the-camera thing here after he's forced an error and if you really, really hate Ted Cruz, you cannot deny the rush

Remember, Big Tough Guys: if a protester busts your taillight, a Big Tough Guy shrugs it off because a Big Tough Guy knows how to replace a taillight and he's too badass to give a shit. A Big Tough Guy does NOT freak the fuck out and murder people with his penis truck because of broken plastic.

Last night they found the man who drove into a crowd of protesters in Riverside, CA Saturday, severely injuring protester, Alexa Carrasco. Both he and a woman who aided him were arrested. Alexa Carrasco remains in a coma. Her condition is critical. www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/n...

Oh hey I found your mom's train car. (This joke does not meet my standards of taste and decorum, please accept my sincere apologies.)

The same people demanding you present a photo ID to vote are perfectly fine with letting you be arrested, handcuffed & thrown into a van by armed men wearing plain clothes, face masks & presenting no identification of any sort.

Fascinating world of ancient #glass: A magnificent #Roman striped mosaic bowl, made of preformed rods and canes fused on or in mold. Timeless beauty! Dating late 1st BC–early 1st AD, found in Cuora, Cavarzere, Italy Photo: Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Adria 🏺

lol so women are probably cheating at boot camp but tech bros don't need to go

The arc of history bends toward fuck these guys

I, also, am the product of an exotic ten thousand year old culture that dislikes being airstruck for inscrutable cultural reasons

I have spoken to rooms full of nondisabled people and heard this ripple of tense laughter. I have told my own story of flipping a car on black ice and people straight up told me they would just drive more carefully. They can’t handle the idea that you can’t wellness and responsibility your way out.

By November, roving gangs will be raiding hobby farms in the suburbs for their annual yield of 9-12 stunted heirloom carrots.

How long til we see a video like this of him claiming a big trade deal with ‘Botslavia’ and it’s Sacha Baron Cohen there with him, in a fake mustache, winking at the camera?

Can’t believe nobody wants to go to a soccer game to be kidnapped by ICE

my friends: don't get all political on us me, zero drinks in:

good morning

Truth Coming Out Of Her Well To Shame Mankind - 2025.

Kinda wild that we all get to pay taxes to fund a civil war against us

A crowd of people runs, screaming "Guns! Run!" as they're pursued by ICE agents screaming "Stop running!" as they all go past a crowd of local cops who scream "Disperse!" and pepper them with rubber bullets, all as we contemplate the politics of brunch.

Did they really march past cadet bone spurs playing Fortunate Son?

Art history/media interpretation take: this is deliberate. There is just no way. A lot of politicians don't know what lyrics mean but IN the actual military? A bunch of dudes just trying to haul themselves out of poverty 4000% understood those words. And that body language screams "fuck this".

Putting this on screen in a Bass Pro Shop would completely upend U.S. foreign policy for a generation.

Those Doonesbury af tanks squeakity squeakin along. The look of abject misery and boredom on his pinched orange face.

I appreciate all y'all internet gremlins who live in my phone It is great day for haters

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

tfw you realize you put too much ketchup on your filet mignon
