Two repeated electoral lessons tonight, same as was true in 2022: 1) Going strong on abortion rights continues to be a winning issue for Dems everywhere. 2) Going strong on anti-trans continues to be somewhere between useless and outright harmful for Republicans everywhere.

Yay! Danica Roem projected to become Virginia's first transgender state Senator, defeating MAGA Glenn Youngkin's handpicked bigot Bill Woolf, who vowed to ban trans athletes from competition. A great night for Democrats and human beings in general. thehill.com/homenews/cam...

people on CNN right now keep saying "this is NOT the party of Ronald Reagan" as if being "the party of Ronald Reagan" is good, or as if this is not the logical continuation of everything Ronald Reagan stood for

This is one reason I go out of my way to donate to trans rights groups: Because it's so easy for me as a cis person to say "sure, I support trans people" and then do not much of anything after that. Trans people have my support, yes -- but they also have my cash, and that cash goes to work.

The left has always been sounding the alarm that growing inequality will lead to mass alienation which will lead to fascists scapegoating marginalized people as they seize power and preserve capitalist inequality. It's still scary seeing it playing out in real time

Genuinely, if you're a man and you approach me in public with anything other than "I want to give you no less than $300,000" I don't want to talk to you

Just once I’d like reporters who write these stories to say if the “AI” product actually works, and to provide specific detailed examples of it actually working. Otherwise it’s just a Silicon Valley press release and/or labor intimidation effort on behalf of the publications in question

There are just so many fucked up parts to this story: The abortion happened before Roe v Wade was overturned. A young man was involved but only got probation while the mom and daughter face jail. Facebook gave the cops their private messages. A friend turned them in. This is all just so so fucked up
