This exact bill has died in the Senate committee before, and it's in the committee now! Here's a list of senators on the committee and their office phone numbers. Names in bold are up for re-election. PLEASE call your senators and tell them to vote NO on the SCREEN ACT. See alt text for numbers.

The only kind of right response. Call the spade a spade!

NEW: More than 5,000 fired USDA employees just got their jobs back, at least for now, in another legal defeat for Trump www.huffpost.com/entry/usda-e...

we watched Creature Commandos yesterday. I liked the Bride a LOT.

Kingsley Wilson, the newly-appointed DoD Deputy Press Secretary, believes in a thoroughly-debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory. I've mostly only seen this theory promoted by mask-off neo-Nazis. archive.is/dPvse

The Iowa GOP advanced a bill making it a misdemeanor for a healthcare provider to administer a Covid vaccine. Even when a person has requested a Covid vaccine.

an effect of the mass of inauthentic activity around political engagement is that it feels even more futile to talk about one's own political values or assertions, which sucks because that prevents consensus-building or value-building. (I'm increasingly convinced LLMs should be destroyed)

"It’s like they’re being served slop, and they’re getting used to the fact that this is like, oh, I guess this is like f***ing like short rib. And I’m like, it’s not. It’s slop."

as many have pointed out, the trans population of the US is of the same order as the Jewish population of Germany in 1933, as well as the Roma population. Where you stand on trans rights is your answer to where you would have stood in response to the Nazis. So fuck you if you don't say trans rights.

🧵This. If an elected doesn't hold townhalls, do like @indivisible.org & go to their offices with a few friends. -Tell your local paper (of any size) when & where you'll be -Take a lot of pictures & post to social -Write a letter to the editor* of that paper about what happened *LTE tips, next! 1/

Hi there's a senate Judiciary committee meeting tomorrow, on the issue of suppressing higher education under the guise of fighting antisemitism, and the ranking democrat on that committee is dick durbin. Call him here -2022242152

I don't think there's precedent for this level of open corruption at the federal level, certainly not in the last 100+ years.

I dunno what will finally make some ride-or-die Republicans finally wake up other than Trump cashing in on a mandatory draft that sends all their poor boys to the frontlines on a war they don't want part of. (But no, I'm not saying it should come to that either to punish people to prove a point.)

idk i think the total destruction of the us economy would be pretty funny if i didn't live here and the country wasn't full of people i care about

everything is so shitty, read this story about a genuinely good man who saw he had an opportunity to save millions of lives and threw himself into doing so. the world is full of heroes like him.

WB is scrapping finished feature films and shuttering historic game studios to drag their dividends up a few percentage points. $3.7M is a 10-person indie cooking for three years. Sony's Concord money could have funded a hundred of those teams, any of whom could be sitting on the next Minecraft.

just wanna remind people that the person who snitched on luigi got none of the promised reward because of random technicalities. you have nothing to gain by being a rat.

dems are probably going to eat shit from fox & newsmax & the NYT for this for a news cycle. or until the recession hits. you’re going to hate that i’m asking this, but if you have a dem senator who voted to stop this, you should call & tell them “good job. we like when you fight. keep it up.”

Leaving an icon such as Tony Todd out of this year’s In Memoriam wasn’t just disrespectful— it speaks to the Academy’s general distain for horror, a genre that has kept the box office afloat year after year, especially during this impossibly difficult decade. #Oscars

"You don't get it, to help Democrats get more power, I have to vote with the Republicans. That way people who agree with Republicans will vote for Democrats, instead of just voting for Republicans... I'm very smart."

Five things I did last week … 1. Wake up 2. Brush my teeth 3. Sign autographs 4. Your mom 5. Donate my Elon Sux-mobile to NPR

Elvira remains an icon

so so close to hitting 4k out of 19.6k!! inching closer to my goal and getting the cost of my top surgery funded ❤️ thank you for all of the support so far!

I wish more people understood that the anti-trans and anti-vaccine movements are deeply intertwined, and by allowing bigotry and conspiracies to supersede medical and scientific knowledge on the subject of trans healthcare, mainstream press paved the way for anti-vaccine rhetoric to flourish.

if i was in a cave with 999 other people, and a group of us decided we should shoot 10 people for no reason other than that they didn't fuck with those 10 people, i would personally think that was both bad and significant regardless of whether i was one of the 10 getting shot. but that's just me ig

CALL YOUR FUCKING CONGRESS PEOPLE RIGHT NOW. IT'S A SATURDAY. YOU GET TO JUST LEAVE A MESSAGE. SCRIPT I'M USING IS BELOW:

even if you don't give a shit about porn you should be doing your part to stop this. this is a direct attack on freedom of speech and the rights of LGBTQ+ people. queer peoples' existence is not pornography and neither is pornography evil. if you think this won't affect you, think again.

To all the streamers feeling isolated- you are not alone. The more connected we become, the more isolating it can feel at times. Let's talk about it. It's a unique path we've chosen. We are trailblazing new territory. Let's support each other in this process. I'd love to discuss this with you!

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

We have launched a gender-affirming care toolkit on the Oregon DOJ website. This resource is designed to help families and caregivers of transgender loved ones navigate the challenges and uncertainties created by Trump's executive orders.

Thank you, New Yawk Times. We believe hearts can open in unlikely places and in amazing ways and whatnot. TV Imagines a Transgender-Tolerant Society. Can It Make One a Reality? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/a...

Hey everyone -- Moms of Liberty and Dept of Education launched a snitch line portal today to rat out teachers and anyone promoting anything DEI. FLOOD THE PORTAL Spam the hell out of it. Pass it on! It works! enddei.ed.gov

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

I love boneless wings :3

ALERT! It just broke that tomorrow, the Senate will attempt a procedural vote on a transgender sports ban. It will take 7 Democrats breaking rank in order to have enough votes to pass cloture. Democrats held very strong in the House and only lost two votes. CALL YOUR DEMS! (info in next post)

If your rep won’t host a town hall, get a group together to host one outside their district office with an empty chair representing your missing representative—call local media to cover it.

A king.

Whatever else is happening in the world, at least things like this are ALSO happening
