important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

BREAKING: Days after a Louisiana judge ruled that the deportation of Mahmoud Khalil can proceed, thousands are holding an emergency Passover Seder at the ICE headquarters in New York City, saying: If you come for one, you face us all.

Sorry to say that this being debated at all in a mainstream sense means it's over and the only way out is to trash it all and start again

I saw a trite post yesterday talking about how “crowd size doesn’t matter because 30k in Utah doesn’t help change that state” and it’s such an interesting contrast in spirit to this message.

This is the greatest day ever because my DON’T TALK TO ME UNTIL I’VE HAD MY SON mug is on its maiden voyage.

The Monarch #butterfly embarks on one of nature's most incredible journeys, migrating up to 3,000 miles from #Canada to central #Mexico. These tiny travelers, with wings of vibrant orange, navigate the vast distances using the sun and Earth’s magnetic fields, defying the odds

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

You know, saying "the state has always done XYZ" in the face of things isn't a gotcha. I know people read it as "it's always been that way so it doesn't matter now" But I say it to emphasize that it's not new, and the victims of that violence deserve dignity as much as you do

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

What are you all reading currently? I'm trying to finish this before I have to return it.

I love my tooth fairy transmasc porn because it really leans into the fantasy of affordable dental care

If we want to support autistics we need to go back to the halcyon days where we let weird, moody people run their niche little stores without having a meltdown if they're kinda rude. That's the price of getting your books from the guy that also knows fluorescent lights are the devil.

#OnThisDay, 13 Apr 1985, Danuta Danielsson hits a neo-Nazi with her handbag in Växjö, Sweden. Yes, that photo by Hans Runesson. Danuta had been born in Poland in 1947, after her Jewish mother had survived a concentration camp. #EuropeanHistory #WomenInHistory #OTD #History #WomensHistory 🗃️

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

When the US began to strip trans people of rights, revert documentation, move trans women to men's prisons, censor research, and move towards healthcare bans, most cis people posted things like "the government can't tell you who you are!" They think our biggest issue is validation, not actual harm.

For more than a week, conservative media and politicians have worked themselves into a frenzy over a spectacle manufactured by a fencer who refused to compete against a 19-year-old trans woman. Here is the target of that hate campaign, finally, in her own words.

Dress up

I love watching interior decor videos where somebody is like "I love medievalcore so I'm gonna make a castle-themed bedroom" because they're always so fascinating but also I can't imagine what it's like having one visual interest over anything else. Or having that kind of money, I guess.

Apparently Adobe popped to Bluesky like a flower in Spring. And then ended like that.

This is the actual news and not the fake news that has been going around.

All of these spoke to me, deeply.

Nothing kills my interest in a game faster than seeing AI generated content

"We will drown fascism in the blood it has spilled." Seen in Adana, Turkey

Me trying to explain fascism to students: "A lot has to do with fear of supposedly stable gendered boundaries blurring, and how that maps onto racial and national hierarchies. But can I really say transphobia is the lodestone to fascism?" Aleksandr Dugin: "Ukrainians are collective transgenders."

I bought a worry stone a couple weeks ago and I've gotta say fidget toys peaked when they were just a rock.

Every day I get online, see the news, and turn into this.

Wonder Showzen knew what was coming

My scheming vizier just poisoned my drink right in front of me. I saw him do it and everything. Really feels like he's phoning it in at this point.
