And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

This is a big part of how the right managed to take over. They worked from the bottom up, filling local positions from school boards to courts.

He nails it.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

Agreed. There’s no need for passport gender markers.

I will never regret transitioning but, and maybe this is a little bit selfish, it would be kinda nice if the worst people in the world would all fuck off so I could enjoy it a bit more often.

I don't misgender my enemies, but damn if it isn't funny when they've specifically demanded it be allowed

Some ways to support libraries, via www.reddit.com/r/Libraries/... If you like reading digitally (or audiobooks), Libby (libbyapp.com) is one of my favorite apps: borrow directly from your local library.

"It is kind of mind-blowing that even before the bans researchers barely looked into complications of pregnancy loss in hospitals," said one expert.

I will never again complain that cartoon villains are too evil to be believable

Historically, suddenly forcing massive numbers of highly educated and well paid people into unexpected mass unemployment has not led to *stability*

This is also why endlessly chewing the same old gum of existing properties is an exercise in diminishing returns. We don't need remakes, reboots, or sequels, we need new ideas.

The purpose of negative emotions is not to cause misery. It’s to prevent mistakes. Outrage is a signal to speak up. Anxiety is a prompt to prepare. Guilt is a reminder to repair. Disappointment is a cue to persist. Pain reveals principles. Where we hurt is a clue to what we value.

more and more these days, I find myself thinking that you can accept the discipline of your political goals or you can accept the discipline of your resentments.

yes, the rise of fascism is bad, but have you considered that some very wealthy people were rudely spoken to

Musk’s staffers are accessing the heavily guarded Internal Revenue Service (IRS) system, which contains detailed financial information on every taxpayer, business, and nonprofit in the country.

JFC indeed.

Introduced my 7yo to Nausicaa for the first time, and she asked "How could the ENTIRE surface of the earth become polluted? That would mean every single person would have to be spreading poison!" And I said "Yes, exactly. Everyone. We're doing that right now." /
