Weeeee eeee eee ee e e e e e e

The Migrant Rights Network is condemning Carney's Bill C-2 as a "shameful capitulation to racism and xenophobia." "We’re witnessing the deliberate expansion of a mass deportation machine designed to tear apart families and communities," they warn.

I wrote about the "highly unusual" case of a midwife arrested for violating Texas' abortion ban. Maria Rojas was arrested 3 months ago & still hasn't been indicted for any crime — putting her in excruciating limbo & denying her any possibility of due process. www.huffpost.com/entry/the-hi...

Screaming WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS MEAN at the top of my voice

MERZ: Tomorrow is the D Day anniversary, when the Americans ended a war in Europe TRUMP: That was not a pleasant day for you? This is not a great day MERZ: This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship

Then Toad poured a glass of water over his head.

Mary-Ann Stephenson was very active in feminist politics in Coventry during the 2010s. I can confirm she is extremely transphobic, although she always kept her nastiest comments behind closed doors. This proposed appointment should be resisted in the strongest possible terms.

Come the fuck on

The New York Times insists on treating Christopher Rufo not as a far-right activist who has been successfully pushing an ideologically defined rightwing agenda, but as a respectable conservative voice and a serious interlocutor on key political issues. That is an active, deliberate choice.

A report? An unscientific and compromised report you swapped for a seat in the Lords? Which you'll use to justify every repressive action you want to take to try and drive a protected minority out of public life, if not out of existence altogether?

We really need to start caring about lying, as a society

Hey everyone, I have a new story out showing how the sausage got made in the new NYT podcast on youth gender-affirming care. It's pretty ugly - my source refused to participate in the podcast so reporters used audio of her captured in public against her will.

Popped on the Watchowski sisters' first film, Bound (1996), to have something on in the background and what name should show up in the credits but Dino De Laurentiis' production company, which is a sign of A-1 quality. You cannot go wrong with a De Laurentiis film!

"They're breaking the law." "What law?" "You know, vibes and shit."

My Reactionary Views Are Transparently A Mid-Life Crisis (But Here’s Why That’s Good Actually)

[average BBC article] A strawberry grown in Dumfries has been named the largest in the UK, at the 73rd annual Fruit Growers Festival. 'I'm delighted,' said winning participant, 68 year old Roger Lennox. 'It's my 4th time entering and I'm so pleased.' However, when we spoke to Sex Matters

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Jonathan Joss' sister in law has spoken out about the misinformation being spread about Jonathan and her brother, and the series of hate crimes and murder that took Jonathan's life. #mmir

Multiple eyewitnesses, geolocated videos, and weapons experts all point to the same conclusion: On Sunday, the IDF opened fire on Palestinian civilians, killing dozens and wounding dozens more. Respect to CNN. This is real journalism. t.co/lXva8Gunh3

I know everyone is obsessed with efficiency just now but I find this framing really irresponsible. There is no DOGE done right because DOGE is a power play by fascists demos.co.uk/research/dog...

Jonathan Joss' husband Tristan has released another statement saying that donations to their old home GoFundMe are not needed at this time and would ask for everyone to direct their energy towards spreading the message about how he was in fact murdered in a hate crime

terrified to feel optimistic about anything but god, Zohran really is so good

The last time he pulled this Muslim ban BS, people rushed into the streets in disgust & lawyers raced to the airports to help. Now, no one’s shocked, everyone is numb… This country is in seriously scary shape

No elite bubble is more impenetrable than the one in which elite political professionals applaud each other for uttering banalities like these. Little of this "advice" is actionable for Dems in the real world, no matter how hard this bubble discourse pretends otherwise. Grift factor here is large.

Yes. A major tic of reactionary centrists is refusing to own up for their own beliefs and *make their case with evidence.* Instead they hide behind public polling and messaging arguments about how Americans agree with them.

It's wild how all this stuff always starts off seeming reasonable, but then settles on "unions and environmental protections and safety standards are dumb and bad." We are suspicious of it for a reason, and we get proved correct a lot.

For sale: Arc of moral universe, never bent.

every centrist pundit who called me a lunatic for suggesting any Republicans would ever investigate miscarriages should be legally required to supply me with a basket of tomatoes and ten minutes with them in a pickleball court

Yes I’m on Bari Weiss’ fake ‘University of Austin’ mailing list, yes they had a Summer Reading List

pitchfork.com/thepitch/lib... My first feature for @pitchfork.com is live—a scene report/call-to-arms from the inaugural Liberation Weekend

Note that this (exceptional) visualization does not appear to account for the Harvard, Brown, Northwestern terminations. This is a major underestimate

oh no, we're in Kubrick Stare territory

Today in examples of how obeying in advance gets you nothing. LPI took down all our DEIA related abstracts to avoid pissing off NASA. And NASA just killed LPSC.

The difficult truth is most states didn’t care much about the Nazis committing mass murder of Jews (one might say general indifference of mass murder by other states is a universal principle guiding states)
