i’m so tired

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word. The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis. Donate here:

The media doesn't want you to see that it's not a jail, it's slavery.

No, not ok. All people within the US are entitled to due process, during which one’s “papers” can be provided. @mattyglesias.bsky.social is making banal excuses for an unaccountable police state.

Reposting ‘cuz this amateur lawyer loves this kind of analysis:

I am & You are & We are Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. He must come home.

Today’s poster for #handsoff San Mateo:

Here’s a toast to the people of Wisconsin: thank you for electing Judge Crawford! Hope in dark times.

I could write a similar letter about the US. Substitute Reagan for Thatcher, and the rest just follows our headlines

transphobes don't actually have opinions on science, they just think they're so enlightened that their beliefs must be inherently scientific

The “Pro-Life” party strikes again. It’s only life, apparently, if it’s pre-natal.

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper... But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?

ErinReed [Mar 10] -- 400+ pages of new medical guidelines from Germany, Austria & Switzerland reaffirm trans medical care & rebukes Cass Review for "not involving medical professional societies" & recommending "psychotherapy for the ‘management of GD distress.’" [@rikiwilchins.bsky.social‬]

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social You blew it, buddy. Stop trying to get ahead and get right by your people. LGBTQ+ Californians fought for you, and now you pull this with Kirk. The one going under the political bus is going to be you, not us.

If governing bodies are serious about creating better & more opportunities for women, their focus should be on the numerous, proven research which finds unequal treatment of women’s sports in participation opportunities, funding and resources, access to facilities & infrastructure, &media coverage.”

I got your waste, fraud, and abuse right here

Left-wing censorship was a fantasy, but the right-wing censorship is real, unconstitutional, and murderous. There was no majority anti-conservative social media bias or casual forced use of words like “birthing person.” But stripping protest rights and official language is actual deadly censorship

Since Payton McNabb is in the news again, time to remind people her injury was the result of an unforced error. It had absolutely NOTHING to do with her opponent being Trans. Payton was victim of bad coaching which led to her pulling off the net and playing defense outside her blocking assignment.

I live in Wisconsin and this race is being bitterly fought with a lot of lies coming out of the conservative candidate. We need all the help and awareness we can get.

I continue to speak out against every bill that attempts to remove trans people from public life. And I will continue to do so for as long as I draw breath. I hope one day the government will leave my people alone.

Aaaaaaah! This, and Kennedy canceled the flu-vaccine preparation meeting, and we’re out of WHO - we are all gonna die, rich and poor alike. I miss rationality.

So I’m thinking it’s “JB4ME” - Pritzger 4 Pres in ‘28…if the republic lasts so long.

Good bye to the UN and all attempts at a world based on mutual respect between nations. We didn’t love you enough while we had you.

This is, in no uncertain terms, a rout. The New York Times published an unfortunate op-ed trying to legally justify Trump administration's #Birthright citizenship order. Here, five leading scholars show, with analytic precision, how that op-ed was "fundamentally flawed and irresponsible."⬇️

One of those things I will always share again when it comes up in my memories. Comics hold valuable lessons and always have. Now, more than ever.

Turns out we “deranged” people simply saw the truth clearly.

Just want to remind everyone that Riley Gaines tied with Lia Thomas for fifth place in one NCAA race, and since then has made her entire personality and a lucrative career out of being mad about it

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

Public comments are open for gender marker changes for trans people on passports. DS-11 Application for passport: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20... DS-82 Passport Renewal: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20... DS-5504 Name Change and Corrections. www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

USA, 18 Feb 2025. Welcome to Black History Month, “MAGA” style.

This is probably the most accurate take.

… of course, the UK Guardian did help mainstream transphobia into left politics, so their complaints about Trump and “the trans” in the current moment are too little, too late.

Women: Trans women were never your enemy. It’s these f*cks: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Not the first time, and certainly not the last. Sobs.

Incompatible with the claim that they're making the government more efficient, not that that was a credible goal.

Hope in dark times. So nice to see @charliejane.bsky.social ‘s _six months, three days, five others_ in the gift shop at Aspirus Hospital, Wausau, WI.

Horrifying news

in america giant bodies of water can change their names, but trans people can’t
