I got mad at the New York Times after their editorial board released an opinion piece condemning Trump's anti-trans EOs and I decided to write about how the paper of record laundered transphobia into the mainstream and paved the road for Trump's transphobia. www.patreon.com/posts/nyt-ed...

I cannot vote for you, but goddamn, if I lived in your state, I would. Challenge them ALL.

Flawless messaging from the opposition party. No notes.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Wild prioritization on the part of the DOT, starting with the focus on high-marriage and high-birth-rate areas. Like, what? Also, absolutely bizarre for the DOT to claim it's focusing on user-pay models when the Trump admin right now is talking about trying to kill NYC congestion pricing.

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

Public leaders: keep the eye on the transit prize, not oligarch white elephants.

Burrito taxi dialogues: a necessary thread.

Here's what @theprospect.bsky.social is going to be doing all week. We're calling it Executive Action Reaction. We are cutting to the heart of Trump's executive order gambit to tell you what you need to know about each: do they matter, are they legal, who benefits. prospect.org/politics/202...

"Yes, Elon Musk Did a Nazi Salute. Yes, Nazis are the Baddies." I brought all the receipts. Believe your own eyes. Don't be gaslit by right-wing media, corporate media, or the ADL. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

"We Can Choose the Ending to This Disaster Movie" On the issue of our climate, "the Los Angeles fires are either a wake-up call or a funeral pyre," writes @davidsirota.com, co-writer of 'Don't Look Up', for Zeteo. "It’s our decision." Read/share/subscribe:

I’m a resist lib account following 45,000 people on here. My timeline looks like the code from the Matrix if it was entirely homophobic AI images of Elon Musk. I haven’t read a post from someone I actually know for six months. In the time it took you to read this I just followed 700 more accounts.

I finally initiated a modest recurring donation to Wikipedia and the Wikimedia foundation: a small price to pay for the thousands of rabbit holes I’ve fallen down over the years (and the knowledge—both enriching and absolutely useless—that I’ve gleaned in the process).

Yet another flagrant example of journalistic malpractice.
