Alright everyone, one last push. If you or anyone you know is: - LGBTQ+ - 13-24 years old - In the US Trevor Project is recruiting responses for their survey on LGBTQ+ mental health. It has HUGE impacts on policy, please take it and share widely if you can :) trvr.org/survey2025

The owner of Twitter sends out 100 right wing propaganda tweets every single day and the algorithm is set up so that every single person on Twitter has to see every single one of these tweets. Now here’s another piece about Blue Sky’s ideological diversity problem.

The other layer is how far-right media twists stories. I periodically check how a Sinclair-owned station is framing a story. Their headline re the Minnesota shooter starts, “Former Tim Walz appointee…” It’s chilling. I don’t usually repeat far-right framing, but critiquing media is an exception.

Listening to Walz, and even though I've known and been warning for years now that this is where we were headed, political-violence-wise, I'm still just in shock. This whole week needs to be a wake-up call for all of us. We're in the fight of our lives here.

thread. when i talk about stochastic terrorism… this is it. people dead due to the horrific and monstrous rhetoric that pushed an assailant to kill.

assassinations, handcuffing a senator at press conference, marines detaining a civilian, and a military parade for the president’s birthday. rough week for democracy.

Respectfully, if you're a white person with a lot of privileges I think posting publicly that you are scared to attend a rally is some real bullshit. It has to be said.

Yep. The very second you decide it’s okay to take rights away from trans people, you’ve decided that taking rights away from anyone is an okay thing to do. A precedent will be set - either human beings deserve human rights or they don’t. Only naive dipshits think they can pick and choose.

I’ve seen a lot of hand wringing about the dangers of going to No Kings protests and gently, I want to tell people to chill a little. These are permitted marches and the point is to be out there and seen en masse. Please don’t scare off people who are maybe going to their very first protest

I never regret the time spent listening to @andreapitzer.bsky.social's Next Comes What podcast. Today's episode has hope, good ideas, and a timeline I didn't know I needed of the LA protests. degenerateart.beehiiv.com/p/june-13-fr...

The instigators are the police. The instigators are ICE. They kidnap children, citizens, workers, people with no criminal record. They shoot guns at people peacefully standing, sitting, walking home. They are the agitators. Every single time. So-called "violent" protest is self-defense.

Street Fighter 2 could never be made in today's political climate. The original game would have been panned for having too much diversity. This is what Street Fighter 2 would look like if it was made today.

@prisonculture.bsky.social and I have been encouraging people to read chapter six of our book, Let This Radicalize You, which deals with the question of "violence" in social movements. We have decided to share the chapter publicly, to offer some context and grounding for the current conversation.

Protesters and ICE watchers are gathering again outside immigration court this morning, where ICE agents have been kidnapping people after mandated hearings in downtown Chicago. Sessions have been canceled (and arrests prevented) multiple times this week due to their presence.

folks now that we may be dragged into a stupid war with iran i believe it is time for y'all to update your draft-dodging plans, especially if you are age 18-26 probably not urgent but it's always better to have a plan and not need it than to need a plan and not have it

I feel like there generally shouldn't be reporting on 'successful indies' that doesn't also mention the massive swaths of indies who can't run 'successful' studios because no one will give you money if you're not already successful

i’ve been waiting for my library audiobook loan of “on tyranny” and it just came in today. it’s a little unbelievable (but not really) how accurate, poignant, and useful it is. it’s an excellent primer with solid information & advice - if you haven’t read it yet, go grab a copy /now/.
