I think it’s not helpful to repeat claims that the administration is working on eliminating “DEIA” as though it’s some kind of corporate strategy; just say explicitly that they’re trying to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and explain how.

Went to Wegmans and there was only one egg for sale. It was $10,000 and a heap of broken bodies lay before its refrigerated golden nest. "Blood for the yolk god," a hundred voices chanted in unison as I took a carton of oat milk and backed away. "BLOOD FOR THE YOLK GOD," they howled.

I wouldn’t think “moved to root out diversity initiatives” is a useful phrase for journalism at all, but using it as a euphemism for a purge of high ranking black officers is downright Orwellian.

I don’t understand how there’s any debate about whether to characterize them as Nazis when they’re out here sieg heiling. It’s an absolute failure of messaging not to name and condemn this behavior, and build a narrative around it.

Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

I'm supposed to go out to a bar/restaurant tonight and to be honest I'm fucking terrified. I'm always nervous in social situations, even pre-transition, but just right now, with everything... fuck. It's awful. All sorts of second-hand stories from my hometown of people scared in public.

Arrests have a cost yall: - time in jail - bail - dealing with lawyers / courts - no contact orders - employment - travel restrictions Civil disobedience with the intention of provoking arrest has a time and a place. It's best done as part of a widespread, dedicated campaign supported by normies.

I think writers and artists need to learn self-respect. And I mean it. To not hedge around "aspiring writer, teehee," to not denigrate themselves as "content creators" or to call their work mere "content" at all. To talk about themselves as artists, as writers, as making work that stands on its own.

How many times does the media have to say "unprecedented" before they'll allow themselves to say "authoritarian"

A full-on purge of the military leadership, targeting women and people of color. This perfectly captures where we are: An escalating authoritarian takeover of the state, combined with an aggressive program to re-segregate the spheres of influence and power and restore complete white male dominance.

ok so what gets called "gender ideology" is jsut like "be who and how you want" and what gets called "not ideology" is like "follow these specific unwritten rules and perform these forbidden rituals according to the circumstances of your birth"

Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

AP could have been cowardly and rolled over for Trump. “We had to comply or we’d lose [funding/access/privileges]” like so many orgs are doing. It would have been easy for them to say “gulf of America” But it never stops there. They got the memo. Good job AP.
