GB News are now lashing out @goodlawproject.bsky.social, who they accuse of a launching "a deliberate and orchestrated campaign"... So GB News probably don't want you to share this: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

Israel is ramping up its violent expulsion of Palestinians from the West Bank, forcing 40,000 people from their homes in weeks. This is not just an escalation—it’s part of Israel’s decades-long effort to push Palestinians off their land.

Vaccines are good. That's not an opinion, it's a fact. Gender affirming care is good. That's not an opinion, it's a fact. "But big pharma!" misses the forest for the trees. The problem with big pharma isn't the medicines. Medicines and vaccines are good! It's the price they charge for them.

To be clear, the concentration camps in World War II were not widely known or acknowledged. The Allies discovered and liberated them after the war. Camps are being erected in America and Cuba as we speak.

Forever thinking about that one Robin Williams routine every time I get a call from the doctor. "When I was growing up, they'd say,"Robin drugs can kill you." Now I'm 58, they're saying,"Robin, you need drugs to live. "

If one argues that teachers are "illegally attempting to practice medicine" by acknowledging trans youth, that retroactively means the previous EO banning trans healthcare for minors applies. Trans affirmation in public institutions, period, is effectively criminalized now. Do you believe us yet?

It's come up again on Twitter, so I'm just gonna say it now. I honestly think the Powdur situation speaks to a wider need to encourage political and media literacy in VT spaces. Doesn't have to be anything dramatic; just some confirmations on where folks stand so vulnerable mems can feel safe.

Since so many people are talking about President McKinley (assassinated by a Polish anarchist in 1901), we might remember that, back then, USA had about 75m people (fewer than Germany today) and received a million immigrants a year. Almost one out of seven of those 75m Americans were foreign born.

Lemur-like primates would cling and leap through the forests of North America about 50 mya. This particular cousin of ours is Smilodectes, not an ancestor but a member of an early primate group called adapiforms. The forward-facing eyes and grasping hands are key adaptations to life in the trees 🧪

As always, the biggest challenge is context, especially in terms of culture. It's a big reason, besides risks of appropriation and overriding voices from said cultures, why my horror is usually homegrown.

Tha, agus ‘s e a' chiad ghèam a chuala mi Gàidhlig ann! Scottish Gaelic is considered a critically endangered language due to the ethnic cleansing of the Scottish highlands during the long 18th century. I’ve been learning for the past few years and was so thrilled to see SWTD had Gàidhlig VO.

Whenever I look at poll results with things like "18 to 45 year old prefer unelected leaders over democracy," I always wonder if they'd give the same answers if they had more varied questions. Like, would they say the same if it was "would you prefer direct democracy over a representative one?"
