WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

I have never understood people defending their behavior with “Yeah, but *I* don’t mean it that way.” If you look like you are doing a Nazi salute, then you are certainly ok with a whole bunch of people thinking you are a Nazi. And if you are ok with them thinking you are a Nazi, you are a Nazi.

Pride orgs everywhere: Do this math. It's absolutely imperative that we expel the corporations who have sold us out. Indeed let Pride events return to what they used to be: community building and activism, not opportunities for corporations to pretend to care. thebuckeyeflame.com/2025/02/04/t...

Its not just that the sex trafficking myths around the super bowl make life harder for sex workers, it's that the diversion of resources and media attention makes stories like this go under the radar for most people

Brendan Carr is turning the FCC into the speech police. Never believe these grifters when they claim to be free speech defenders. They're not against censorship, they just want to control the narrative to the liking of their king

Trump megadonor Steve Wynn has filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to overturn the landmark 1964 decision in New York Times v. Sullivan, which protects the media's ability to aggressively cover public officials. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

Institutions that can sustain a body blow now is your time to step up

i love that in addition to everything else, elon musk is the dumbest asshole on the planet

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

It occurs to me, for no reason in particular, that I should put this starter pack back in circulation go.bsky.app/3h6n3YC

For #BlackHistoryMonth we're offering 40% OFF Haymarket Books on the Struggle for Black Liberation

Reminder: there are no criminals, only criminal acts. And most “criminal” acts are against systems of oppression and driven by necessity, not greed. Unless you’re white. The largest single category of theft in the US? Wage theft, with no jail time. Perpetrated by mostly white people against the poor

I’ve gotten word that the Gates Foundation, the world’s third largest PRIVATE foundation, is removing references to DEI from their site, and I would just like to know what the ostensible excuse is for this???
