Just remembering all those poli sci classes where people talked about norms and laughed when I said we can’t rely on them.

So at what point do we ask the US ambassador to leave? How bad does the rhetoric coming out of the US have to be before we say enough?

It’s hard to believe that we are going to be plunged into world wide unrest and economic upheaval because the US Democratic Party can’t find a spine or their moral core

Essential essay by @beccalew.bsky.social about how Silicon Valley’s flirtations with fascism and defense of white male power are nothing new — but a return to what many of the industry’s current leaders would’ve learned in the 1990s when right-wing figures warned of the “pussification” of tech.

Trans men are men. Trans women are women. Nonbinary folks are neither. An executive order claiming otherwise has exactly as much moral and scientific validity as one claiming that gravity is no longer to be obeyed. (It also does not have the power of law. Do not capitulate in advance.)

Thinking of trans people today, the attacks and bigotry they'll endure over these years, and the failure of mainstream media and greater society to behave with decency and offer support to the marginalized. We must be brave, take action, and listen to those who ask for help, for the good of us all.

Trying my hardest to extend the compassion I have for those in LA who are not wealthy and are facing tremendous losses to a bunch of rich people who are losing their homes to fire after their most recent election where they complained about their municipal taxes and defunded the fire department
