So, the deal #putin is offering is essentially "stop giving #Ukraine weapons and we'll promise to focus on bombing schools, hospitals and residential buildings instead of energy infrastructure" What a joke. #EUpol

President Reagan and his administration did nothing to fight HIV/AIDS because it was "killing all the right people", including so many people I loved, and they practically rooted for the virus. I don't ever want to hear any Democrat praise Ronald Reagan in a speech again.

If POTUS won’t allow the phrase “climate change” to be used, can scientists just switch to “Trump hotness”. Like, everyone would know that has to mean something else.

This article from @TheConversationUS is so good. So much to learn from history. Transgender and intersex people have always existed. https://theconversation.com/trans-people-affirmed-their-gender-without-medical-help-in-medieval-europe-history-shows-how-identity-transcends-medicine-and-law-248559

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional. This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on! Huge win for trans people in MT!

The danger of politicizing the National Archives—with a far-right journalist potentially in charge—cannot be overstated. It's not just about Trump seeking revenge. It's also an attempt to manipulate the country's historical records in order to censor, erase, and rewrite history itself.

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

So based on the EO that changes the US Digital Service to US DOGE Service, #ElonMusk and friends - who are not federal employees (correct?) - have locked out employees of systems at OPM, GSA, and Treasury. This feels like a ransomware attack - you’ll get your systems back when the US buys a […]

Advice from someone who cares/thinks a lot about effective messaging? Don't use the acronym. Say the words "diversity, equity, and inclusion." Slowly and with emphasis. Every time. Don't let them hide their opposition to these basic, common sense, and popular ideas behind an acronym.

I think we can break people who do bad things into two categories: those who could be fixed by three ghosts visiting them in the night with a lesson to impart and those who can't "can't even be fixed by three ghosts" is the strongest assessment of moral failure yet identified
