"Sugarcane": Oscar-Nominated Film Explores "Colonial Silence" Around Indian Residential Schools

1. Happening now, the United States Senate is considering S9, a bill that would ban transgender people from playing sports of their gender identity from chess to darts and everything in between. It could result in genital exams and more. I'm covering live. Watch: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

1. The far right is falsely spreading that a new study shows that surgery "doubles depression" for transgender people. This is an egregious misreading of the study, which does not look at transgender people before and after surgery. Subscribe to support my journalism. Lets dig in.

the thing about “democrats should take popular cultural positions” is that what constitutes popular is a function of an interaction between the public and elites. if a faction of elites start screaming about a vulnerable minority and another faction says they have a point, this shapes the public.

Today, not long after 3:00 PM, the US Senate will vote on a motion to invoke cloture on a transgender sports ban applying to youth and sports from dancing to darts and evenChess. If 7 Democrats flip on this motion, we will likely get a national sports ban in the US. CONTACT YOUR SENATORS!

Also important to note that the estimates that place trans people at 1.3 million are rather old, from the Williams Institute, which did good work at the time mind you. Latest Gallup poll shows 1.3% of people now identify as trans, which would be over 4 million people!

1. Reports this week revealed that DHS has rescinded guidance banning surveillance based on someone's gender identity or sexual orientation. We have confirmed those reports. The latest from S. Baum, who goes over steps you can take to protect yourself. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I love being blocked by "antiracist" white people when I ask them to stop being appropriative and racist! It fuels me and makes me so much more annoying.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

1. Montana’s House has passed an indecent exposure bill that applies only to trans people. It sets out one standard for cis people that requires intent, and another for trans people that does not. Trans Rep. Zephyr delivered scathing remarks. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Y’ALL! We got 80% of our goal which means WE GOT THE GREEN LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m making a freakin film in six weeks!!!!!!!

y'all think indigenous people would leave the disabled out in the cold? that's how the european move, not us. i promise you, you'd get insulin and other needs if indigenous people got land back. 💀

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care. They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely. This won’t just harm people. This will kill people. They own this.

Call me crazy, but if I get into your Uber in a full face of makeup and overall presenting feminine and my profile gives you my pronouns, and you keep calling me "man", I'm absolutely leaving that you were texting, and browsing Facebook while driving on your review 🤷 Malicious legal compliance it is

Holy crap. When the Native groups are scrubbing the word Native from their websites, we are in fricking deep trouble. Also **** the UA BOR. That was a cowardly move and they should be ashamed.

I’m back on this app after a hiatus. Happy to see my favorite journalists and writers here. If you want to follow my writing, I’m putting out reflections in a research journal on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/nickestes

Donald Trump's budget director Russell Vought is the architect not just of Project 2025 but of the past 36 chaotic days of Trump 2.0. We need to dig into Vought's philosophy of "radical constitutionalism" and where it could lead the nation.

Of course. Because why not?

Ukraine: accord sur les minerais entre Kiev et Washington

Looks like a fascinating collection -- Indigenous Critical Reflections on Traditional Ecological Knowledge, edited by Lara Jacobs @ecohugger.bsky.social.

Who would've guessed the white vegan saying super racist shit and fantasizing about Natives getting shot by the cops after we talked about hunting pheasants, uses AI to express her nationalism! Generative AI is such a great way to show you care about animals and the environment as a whole!!!

Permaculture is indigenous knowledge that's been repackaged by (mostly) white men. This doesn't get talked about enough in the #permaculture world. I've got a video about this + full article coming soon (and no the irony isn't lost on me).

NEWS: In USDA, multiple people have been asked to report the names of LGBTQ employee resource group leaders to higher-ranking officials, according to interviews with workers and a document reviewed by Mother Jones. + similar in the Department of the Interior

This is an INCREDIBLY serious story for Washington, DC. There is one prosecutor for DC: the federal/DOJ US Attorney for DC. That's a Trump-appointed position now. The Trump appointee is corrupt, venal, MAGA. Here the DC police wanted to prosecute a crime, and the Trump USAO SAID NO. 1/

It’s a bubble and it will burst futurism.com/microsoft-ce...

The thing about the militant vegans is that they don't understand Indigenous worldviews at all, and then make silly arguments and get salty when their lack of understanding and fallacies are pointed out. And we aren't dogpiling, we're a global community looking out for each other on and offline.

More than 160 Gazan medics held in Israeli prisons amid reports of torture

Hooooly shit. Saying this to a bunch of Indigenous people knowing full well how we’ve *been* treated by those in power for the last few centuries?!? Keeps getting worse, like my fucking god. Report and block .

Le HKU5-CoV-2, un coronavirus de chauve-souris potentiellement transmissible à l'humain

I had a childhood friend who believed God would handle everything. She ended up having me pay her bar tab and crashing on the couch of our newlywed suite on my wedding night because she'd decided God would take care of her drinks and also her ride back to Philly that evening

This meme will, unfortunately, always be relevant it seems

Russie: Poutine affirme que les Européens «peuvent participer» au règlement du conflit en Ukraine

"We are older than your laws and we will outlive them," one sign said. EITM correspondent S. Baum attended this weekend's Stonewall protest, organized by Transexual Menace, which connected trans elders, youth, and everyone in between. Read their story and subscribe to support our journalism.

This is indeed brilliant

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

Finished week 7 of the Montana legislature and honestly, it was pretty good overall. - Dems blocked a school voucher scam program - A Republican voted NO on an anti-trans bill (a first this session in the House) - Medicaid expansion is on track to pass the senate - We got some great court wins

You know THEY know it's bad because they did it late on a Friday

malditos liberais! foda-se essa merda this is just a liberal version of an unfunny racist joke that elon musk would make

These Nazis are getting comfortable and you cult members who refuse to see it for what it is are culpable

Something we all should remember, as we talk about worst case scenarios and ways to plan for and survive them: It's very much worth remembering that we collectively can and will survive them. And, we will build something beautiful on the ashes of their corrupt and childish violence.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

I mean this. When Shillace’s book comes available, everyone should read it. One of the most incredible histories of the rise of fascism in Germany and the trans people who lived there. The stories are incredible and the things she uncovered are indispensable.
