everyone who said dems needed to be fighting for every single inch and delaying trump’s staffing and govt funding as much as possible was right. everyone who said to lay low and wait for trump to self-impeach was wrong.

one of the many shames of the Biden Administration is that even during his presidency Canary Mission and LibsofTikTok, among others, were straightforwardly involved in violent terrorism and not only did he do nothing about it he allowed their ilk to be normalized

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

Guardian [Apr 23] -- Folksy trans singer-songwriter Bells Larsen forced to cancel US tour for new album after learning his visa application would be refused because the M on his Canadian ID doesn't match his biological sex. He is unable to reapply for 4 years now. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

From our Maryland investigations, PREA Resource Center had online resources factually describing how PREA protects trans women in prisons from rape. If I had to speculate, it's probably related!

I've said it before, but it bears repeating: one of the most exhausting aspects of being trans is constantly being called a secret child molester by a bunch of (not even all that) secret child molesters.

Who could have possibly predicted that TERFS would immediately pivot from transmisogyny to overt racism? Oh, wait. It was trans women. Trans women said this is exactly what would happen.

Understanding that they know this will kill people and that is the point of it is important here. They aren't trying to save money. They are trying to kill queer children. And they also cut resources for NCMEC for queer children, showing that they want the children to be raped and killed as well.

Short term, I shoot myself in the foot. Long term, it's good news. I learn to walk without the foot. I do a three-legged hop, a tarantulan creep. Babadook-like movements. People will ask "why do you do this?" and I will say "it's important I blow my foot off for no reason." They respect this.

It’s beyond negligent that we haven’t upgraded air quality in schools. It’s all upside. Less communicable disease, less covid, reduction in student and teacher absences, better concentration and more. Kids can’t protect themselves. They need the adults to fight for them. We’re letting them down

something like 75% of the people on that plane were proven to have absolutely zero criminal records, and they ALSO have House reps, and those House reps have offices to picket and phone lines to tie up "So-and-So just did ____, why can't YOU do that???" is a pretty good attack in these cases!

It's also just mad when you consider the fact that the pre-2013 ban on gay marriage INCLUDED TRANS PEOPLE WITH GRCs! A cis man couldn't legally marry a trans man. Married couples where one partner transitioned had to get divorced to get a GRC, whether they wanted to or not!

When the photos of war crimes at Abu Ghraib in Iraq emerged in 2004, the George W. Bush admin had to at least publicly pretend to be horrified and taking actions to address it. If that happened now, the Trump admin would gleefully make an AI-generated Studio Ghibli-esque image of it to gloat online.
