Oh boy - more austerity. Such a new and compelling voice.

Trans people affirmed their gender without medical help in medieval Europe − history shows how identity transcends medicine and law

He's gotten more arrogant now.

Premier Tim Houston floods the zone with sweeping changes to government By @timbousquet.bsky.social

The NAACP is re-mixing 1930s-era "don't buy where you can't work" campaigns to confront the neo-segregationists targeting DEI. apnews.com/article/blac...

Yeeeeeeeeeeep. Can verify. Fuck you Bank of Nova Scotia, fuck you TD.

I've never seen or read anything Bridget Jones and I am STILL "How dare you!"

General strike.

Narcissist.

A 14-year-old boy’s suicide following a romantic relationship with an #AI companion raised alarms about the dangers these relationships may pose to young people’s mental and emotional development. https://buff.ly/3EGGJAP

It me!

Incredible to think how hard Merrick Garland worked for four years to avoid even the remotest appearance of partisanship or ideological commitments, and literally on her first day as AG Pam Bondi is like "Diversity is now illegal, we will be putting all the libs in prison"

Tonight I edited a chapter and I wrote 1000 words.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

I've felt like a crank for two decades now but everything I've thought was going to happen has happened.

sucks that this is all happening in an era where we’re burdened with the knowledge that cigarettes are bad for you

Due to Trump's tariffs your Canadian girlfriend can't visit this year. And after not being able to visit last year because of the murder wasps I guess we'll never get to meet her.

Perhaps ironically, the legislation of gender by politicians makes it clear that gender is a political construct, one which is conceptualized and enforced by those in positions of power, pursuant to their interests and desires.

Weaponized irony serves to create plausible deniability to enable one to disclaim what one is actually espousing. It’s long been a tool of the far right.

The last time Trump won, a lot of white racists got excited, decided it was safe to post racist shit, and got fired from their jobs. It's modest praxis to be sure, but there's still decent folks out there and companies will STILL fire employees that make them look bad. Make them pay. It works.

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

if you're STILL complaining about the left: 1 - the actual left has no institutional support or power 2 - many leftists working on actionable things are occupied trying to keep people the center abandoned alive 3 - are you maybe confusing "all leftists" with a poster who annoyed you one time?

For all you fcukwits that complain about protesters when what they're protesting isn't your personal pet peeve:

Where's all those guys who supported refusing to bake fag cakes because of honestly held religious beliefs? Surely they'd be all over this!

I don’t care if you’re a relative, a fantasy novelist, or an elected official, transphobia is manufactured outrage and transphobe are trash. None of America’s problems are cause by trans people. None. But a LOT are caused by bigots.

Jesus fucking Christ.

"DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY!"

Was trying to remember why I had mentally bookmarked him and it was because last summer Colombian tabloids spread a rumor he was having an affair with Linda Yepes, a transgender newscaster. Not only did he refuse to deny it but decried transphobia as akin to Nazism

I won't even so that, but I will look up afterwards where the new public washroom will be opening up.

You know all those neighborhood little library boxes? I check them regularly and remove the religious books and toss them in the garbage. Doing my part.

Now in the science fiction section, too.
