Genuinely couldn't believe this figure until I saw the Financial Times confirm it using Meta's own financial reporting data For THIS $100 billion is genuinely the kind of money you could "do the impossible" with. Crack nuclear fusion. HIV vaccine. Universal flu vaccine And they spent it on this

A cryptocurrency that briefly surged on Argentine President Javier Milei's support before crashing is the latest in a series of politically endorsed meme coins facing a backlash reut.rs/3XcnLbL

He sounds worse than Biden at the debate

imo it also means there IS something special and powerful about men— it's just that trans men prove the source & application (+ reception) differs radically from the norm. we're aberrations proving both that cis people don't hold the keys to manhood, nor do we need them to open the door.

On Feb. 21, 1965, civil rights activist Malcolm X was shot to death in New York. Three men identified as members of the Nation of Islam were convicted of murder and imprisoned. All were eventually paroled. (Convictions of two of the men were dismissed in 2021) Read more: t.ly/2NyWx

83% (!!!) of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent Jan. 6 rioters, according to a new WaPo/Ipsos poll.

I'm sorry but I'm just not going to be cowering in fear of these clowns. They suck and they are cruel but they are not God.

He's gonna fuck up every single independent creator who depends on the mail for their business. Call your reps and tell them you didn't vote for Trump to destroy your business. reps.fyi

Dolly Parton is also mega rich but instead of buying Twitter or buying all the politicians, she put 150 million books into the hands of children. Be like Dolly. 📚 #USDemocracy

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

this is both illegal and unconstitutional and it'll be fought as such.

Ketamine is trending on Twitter, because Elon is so high at CPAC, he can’t even talk straight.

#TransRightsAreHumanRights

🔎 WATCHDOG ALERT: Viktor Orbán is once again using antisemitic dog whistles, invoking “globalist-liberal-Soros” conspiracies to vilify human rights groups — language with a long history of fueling antisemitic violence. 🧵

💣 BE WARY OF PARAMILITARIES When the men with guns who have always claimed to be against the system start wearing uniforms and marching with torches and pictures of a leader, the end is nigh. When the pro-leader paramilitary and the official police and military intermingle, the end has come.

Americans want universal healthcare, not a colony on Mars. And don’t tell me it’s about “innovation.” Making sure every American has housing, food, and healthcare is innovation, too.

A handful of Republicans admit that Trump is lying about Zelensky.

1. Despite Republican attacks in recent years, America is queerer than ever before. LGBTQ+ identification has risen to 9.3% in the last Gallup Poll, a huge jump from 7.6% last year. I cover the latest numbers in my story. Subscribe to support my journalism.

elon musk is the generational case study of how lust for power, unlimited wealth, and the desire for a century long legacy can make you one of the most evil people curruently alive in the world

Inspired by the abolitionist and civil rights movements, Get Free is mobilizing young people to turn campuses and communities into freedom beacons that defy Trump-Musk’s authoritarian power grabs.

As to be expected of MAGA snowflakes.

Americans bend no knee before tinpot dictators.

This is an important point! Medicaid cuts in particular are DEEPLY unpopular, and there are a number of Republicans in swing districts or who fancy themselves moderate who are not excited to vote for this. This is a fight we can win.

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

DO NOT BOYCOTT YOUR LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS ON THIS DAY! THEY CAN'T AFFORD A FULL DAY OF NO SALES! January & February are hard enough as it is. No sales for one day often means not meeting rent or payroll.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

I rarely reread what I've written because then I just think of all the ways I could have rewritten it, but I still very much appreciate @maddow.msnbc.com sharing @leahgreenberg.bsky.social's and my op-ed on air tonight! You can find the whole thing here: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

A brief break from puppy posting to remind you that Musk, Vance, and Peter Theil (who tapped Vance) all subscribe to a theory known as DARK ENLIGHTENMENT which is based around the idea that democracy is bad and America would be better off with an... *checks notes* ...absolute monarchy.

Christian nationalists are domestic terrorists.

what's the old saying, punks are nice people pretending to be mean and hippies are bad people pretending to be nice

wheels are starting to turn, which is good

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

I recorded I quick video explaining a broader strategy for #TeslaTakedown, why Elon Musk and his empire are so vulnerable, and how attacking Tesla can get dramatic results. If this video helps you see the opportunity to hit back, please share it with as many people as you can! youtu.be/L-Imw_s1aaI

Tbh a military dictatorship or ordinary Christo-nationalist state would be endurable but not the end of the world... a Yarvinist technofascist state would be a lot worse 😔

Taryn Manning before #OrangeIsTheNewBlack... anyone else remember Boomkat? youtu.be/V_GuIDnZPHs

Trans rights are human rights, and we will fight for them. Always.

Trump so old, he doesn't remember his alibis anymore. SAD.

exhausting as liberal democracy is, I feel it is vital for us queer and trans people to fight for its survival because it is also the system of government that tends to be least interested in killing us by a very wide margin

As flu rages, the Trump administration has pulled the plug on a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention flu immunization campaign that targeted high-risk groups, including pregnant women.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.
