Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.

"Because we see our democracy's in real trouble. We see a president who has made himself a king and dictator." "We're disgusted and we're scared, and we know the only way to fight this now is for the people to come together." - @markruffalo.bsky.social on why he's at the #NoKings event in NYC

If the US saw what the US is doing in the US, it would invade the US to liberate the US from the tyranny of the US.

We try to stay ahead of the crime evolutionary curve in our stories, but the time delay between writing Lev:Red S3 in 2024 and airing in 2025 meant this AI voice tech outstripped us. It’s common, and you should talk to your family members, especially vulnerable ones unfamiliar with tech, about it.

There is no such thing as simple, binary "biological sex" Scientists have an ethical duty to speak up about the true complexity of sex and gender Every biologist and professional society staying silent on this is complicent in allowing fascism to commit trans genocide

Disabled people are not expendable. Disabled people are not lazy. Disabled people are not “choosing” to be sick. Disabled people deserve healthcare, social supports & accommodation. These are not controversial concepts. Ableism & health supremacy tell you otherwise. Fight with us. Fight for us.

While I'm on the general subject of "AI," let me just say that it's a real dickheaded maneuver to tell an actual artist that their work "looks like AI." Their work doesn't look like "AI" because they're aping what "AI" does; it looks like "AI" because the "AI" company fucking stole from them.

Watching 80+ year old politicians whine about folks wanting them to retire when they have enough money that they could have retired 20 years ago and spent all that time doing WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANTED is honestly offensive to everyone out here who is exhausted and barely paying bills.

America is not a Christian nation. America is a nation where the rich and powerful have reduced Christianity to just another tool to exploit for their own interests at the expense of the very people Jesus called us to serve: the poor, the hungry, the sick, the stranger, and the oppressed.

Maybe it’s just the autism talking, but I would like someone to explain why introversion is considered the rude one when extroversion keeps imposing on people who aren’t interested.
