I watched someone aimlessly fill time with Instagram Reels and I don’t know if algorithms made people stupid or just met us where we collectively are. Probably a mix of both.

The New York Times CONTINUES to release piece after piece spreading disinformation on trans care and dancing on the graves of trans youth in the wake of the SCOTUS decision. Just brought to my attention, from their morning newsletter. Disgusting. This isn't even their big hit piece today.

We should be able to buy adderall, testosterone & estrogen OTC at Walmart while buying a gun should require 6-12 months of intensive therapy beforehand and monthly reapproval from your psychiatrist

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

If you have a Dem senator, do not assume they will challenge the all-ages trans healthcare funding ban in the budget bill. Call them *today*. I’m squeezing my calls in between meetings. Cis folks doing “We support trans kids,” please please be on this.

"We're not saying you can't get health care because you're transgender, which would be illegal. We're just saying we refuse to treat the conditions that cause you to be transgender. That's different and okay." A pathetic, indefensible logical pretzel from SCOTUS

What BS logic from the Supreme Court. Trans care bans don't discriminate on transgender status. Rather, its GENDER DYSPHORIA that they target. Not too many gender dysphoric cisgender people.

The claims that McIver, Padilla, and Lander were committing assault should make you question every other time LEOs claim assault or resisting arrest, if you weren’t already.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

I think it’s bad that there are federal law enforcement officials who can arrest anybody for any reason or no reason at any time, without identifying themselves or wearing any sort of uniform, wearing face masks so that they cannot be identified, and who routinely arrest Democratic officials.

In response to a Q from @maxrn.bsky.social, Lander said: "This is a critical time to have a mayor who will stand up to ICE and stand up to Donald Trump... I am very grateful to the other mayoral candidates who came out here to call for my release and I really hope New Yorkers will elect one of us."

This is such a fascinating look into the arcane math beneath the shiny surface of CSS transforms. I would have chalked it up to randomness or a browser bug but… jakearchibald.com/2025/animati...

A “shift” never happened. A chaotic raid at a worksite and a warrantless sweep in our communities have the same outcome. Bullshit rhetoric aside, they’re hunting us down while we’re trying to feed you. Who’s actually in charge?

Despecialized is the way

Listen, we're straight shooters at Hell Gate. We play no favorites. Like, say if anyone wracked up speeding violations in school zones, and then parked their car in the middle of traffic in midtown Manhattan. You know what we'd call you? An ASSHOLE. Here's one. hellgatenyc.com/cuomo-derang...

One more time, here is EFF/Freedom of the Press' guide for journalists securing their devices to cross the US border. Stories like Alistair's help us understand the real threats on the ground and allow us to threat model more accurately. freedom.press/digisec/blog...

once again LAPD/LASD rioting against incredibly peaceful protests for no discernible reason

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible
