As the US regresses, the United Nations and EU, especially former colonial powers (e.g. 🇬🇧🇫🇷🇪🇸🇵🇹) should address inequities in global mobility for Black people and queer people, who are often trapped in nations full of issues due to imperialism. Brain drain and proximity migration policy is not justice.

The official White House account posted this.

I legitimately do not understand how more people are not talking about Hegseth, his white nationalist tattoos, the ongoing military purges, and the expansion of the US' capacity and openly-stated willingness to imprison people in Gitmo and El Salvador.

In response to RFK Jr. & Tulsi Gabbard's Senate confirmations, Mikki Willis, the conspiracy theorist behind the viral COVID misinfo "Plandemic" video, wrote that he's "been working with RFK Jr. & Tulsi Gabbard for over a decade, collaborating on media productions," & "travel[ed] with both" of them.

Fox allowed Kanye West to buy a Super Bowl at pointing to his Yeezy website where he’s selling swastika branded t-shirts, because of course we’re in the new Nazi normal

If a general was planning on using the military to illegally go after US citizens in the US, yes the judge would be able to order them to stop. The military is not above the rule of law. They're setting the stage for martial law.

Everyone needs to understand - every hospital withholding healthcare from trans children will do the same to trans adults as soon as the orders come down.

turns out when transphobes said we need to “follow the science” what they meant is delete it and hide all traces of it

If you are, or know someone who is, trans or nonbinary, spread this word to them ASAP.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

"Populist" Trump has fired an NLRB board member. Why? 1) It deadlocks the NLRB, maybe for his whole term, giving free rein to union busters. 2) SpaceX & Amazon are suing over the constitutionality of the NLRB. This is bait for SCOTUS to take the cases and blow apart the agency.

The past 24 hours been like

Imagine having so little of import or interest going on in your life that you completely subsume your will and identity to some cartoonish vision of a nation. You have to be so empty as a person to be a MAGA simp.

Too neurodivergent to comprehend nationalism.

If there's one reason for gratitude in this life, it's being around at the same time as this album. It might just be the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. #metalsky

Trying to internalize the idea that, if the absolute losers, idiots, and freaks that exist in politics can rocket through life, faking it, maybe we all deserve to feel a little better about ourselves, and more confident in what we can do.

Warframe 1999 LETSGOOOO ... Right after I try to handle healthcare shit I can barely mentally process

THIS is Our INSTRUCTION

Fascinating video on Steam trends, especially these statistics- of all the games released in Steam in 2024, just 2.5% had the "LBGTQ+" tag and 7% had the "female protagonist" tag. This is supposedly the political trend that's overwhelming and destroying gaming. youtu.be/qiNv3qv-YbU?...

BREAKING: Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have cast decisive votes against Biden's NLRB nominee. This means the Democrats will not secure control of the national labor regulator through 2026. These two Senators effectively handed Trump control of the board when his term begins.

Must... Not... Skeet about how life is 90% doing things you don't want to do and fulfilling empty social obligations... Must... resist... Whew... OH FU-

call me crazy but being a absurdly wealthy shouldn’t give you VIP access to the government

Wealthy piece of shit with a driveway: "The city has a 72hr parking ordnance. Don't park in front of my house for an extended period of time or I'll have you towed." Me, with no driveway, in a city with side-swapping parking laws during winter, when I have to fly somewhere for a week:

Latest re-obsession. Probably my new favorite prog metal album of all time + black/death... Too many God damned ideas to name. I can't imagine someone making something this brilliant and dipping... But here we are. amun.bandcamp.com/album/spectr... #metalsky

Every day I get a new Bsky invite code, everyone I know gets a little less interested in Bsky.

Attempting to use the mind's eye/ear/etc as a character's only sense in a situation in a horror story, but then I think about all those aphantasia apple posts that make the rounds and how people react and now I'm wondering if this is a good idea. lol
