The kids are alright

Hawaiian crows are extinct in the wild and are found nowhere else on Earth. Now, a small group, safeguarded in captivity, has been released in the forests of Maui.

It's just a coincidence, right?

The only trans athlete to win an elite world championship, the first to represent team USA, the first to partake in an Olympic trial and the only trans athlete to win a pro boxing fight and the only trans athlete to ever win a sports scholarship are all trans men in men's sport.

A full third of federal government employees are veterans. Elon and co think fed employees are a bunch of granola eating liberals but they're sorely mistaken. Rendering hundreds of thousands of veterans unemployed with cuts to their VA healthcare and no job prospects is a recipe for an insurgency.

This is a direct reference to the Proud Boys who use the gold wreath FAFO logo. I fully believe Elon is going to utilize vigilante violence to enforce things. You should take this seriously.

I don't think people realise how hard Why Everything Stopped Working (2026, penguin random house, I'm writing a book) is going to go. It will make some people very upset, but it's necessary to tell you who made everything stop working and why. My editor is as radicalised as I am. She's incredible.

We have more supportive studies of trans women athletes than we do in the total number of elite trans women athletes.

In 2024, the NLRB filed a complaint against Tesla for interfering in a union drive at their Buffalo, NY assembly plant. Today:

A portrayal of Lincoln giving the Gettysburg Address was on TV earlier, the actor had a big baritone voice. Edison didn't invent the phonograph until a decade later, so there's no recordings. But Lincoln's law partner and journalists described his voice as "high pitched and shrill".

And there are entirely too many of them!

1. After a federal judge ruled that websites containing LGBTQ+ information at the CDC must be restored, the Trump administration did so... but then also added snide and incorrect anti-trans headers to them. The latest from new EITM writer S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

It’s so awful.

This is all deeply sick and I will be watching to see which ghoulish lawyers rep these men. I don't think Jonathan Mitchell can do them all! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/h...

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

If my cat gets avian flu I will John Wick.

Among the things cited as evidence of "anti-Christian bias": - pointing out that extreme religious groups could pose a threat - attempting to roll back special privileges for religious groups on campus - preventing foster/adoption discrimination - recognizing Trans Day of Visibility

I’m convinced every man who complains about DEI really thinks it’s his pasty penis between society and utter destruction.

If two doughy, deeply insecure sex pests who couldn't change a tire to save their lives are the epitome of "masculine maximalism," then masculinity really is over.

so much of this is because the elite abuser class has decided that MeToo and BLM must never happen again

Quick question. Why isn't that area safe?

Raskin: "Yesterday, Donald Trump banned the Associated Press, a 179-year-old newspaper organization, from the White House because it declines to call the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America." This is straight up press censorship based on retaliatory viewpoint discrimination."

This article by Ashley et al is a fantastic exploration of our evidence-based best practices for caring for detrans peoples' needs in a timely, effective, and most importantly *harm-minimizing* manner. Or, in plain language? How we can make sure the folks who need to detrans aren't hurt. A 🧡
