I think what anti-SW people really object to about "sex work is work" isn't what it implies about sex work but what it implies about all other work

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: an administration (and its supporters) who believe that they are not limited by the rule of law have no moral or philosophical claim to the protection of the rule of law. “The law is whatever we say it is” warrants the same in response.

This was the motto of the civil society movement to resist Bolsonaro’s right wing authoritarianism in Brazil. I learned it from @annagalland.bsky.social and love it. Would love to see American designers do their own interpretations.

There's one plausible way Democrats could shut down the DOGE crime spree/constitutional crisis in the short term. And I'm pretty sure this is it. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/where...

Dems should take a hard line: no CRs or debt ceiling increases without full reinstatement of fired federal employees with back pay and an independent special prosecutor that Trump can't fire to investigate what happened over the last week with Musk.

Right now we’re witnessing the difference between authority and power. Elon Musk does not have the legal authority to do any of the things he is doing. He is not authorized to shut down USAID. He is not authorized to take over OPM. He has no legal authority to access all our data and payments.

One thing for Senate Democrats to do is announce they will use every tool at their disposal to block Bondi’s nomination until DOJ appoints a special counsel (ideally with beefed up firing protections) to investigate the widely reported crimes committed this week by Musk and his band of DOGE goons.

I think that we should be talking about what Trump is trying to do to trans people in the context of the Nuremberg laws.

I just wanna point out that the existence of the NLRB and labor unions is the “moderate compromise” option and prior to that things like “running gun battles in the street” and “burning the boss’s house down with everyone in it” were on the table as negotiating tactics

Order Garland to initiate immediate denaturalization proceedings of Elon Musk (based upon his documented immigration fraud), just so FedSoc judges can fall over backwards to issue opinions about how the President can't do that, how high the bar is for denaturalization, etc.
