I don’t think you can summarize the fatal problem with modern liberalism any better than “My issue with the way people are being deported and disappeared is procedural.”

Today’s CDC report shows rising autism diagnosis rates due to better screening & recognition — especially in marginalized groups. This directly contradicts HHS Secretary RFK Jr.’s harmful claims of an “epidemic.” Autism isn’t a crisis—disparities in access are. autisticadvocacy.org/2025/04/asan...

In 1993, PBS was threatened with defunding for airing the gay-inclusive series TALES OF THE CITY. They cancelled plans to adapt further books. And we’re are in 2025, with nothing changed 😡

Holy crap. Nelson Mandela Walk is a landscaped, pedestrian only walkway through the centre of TMU campus. The driver was determined to hit and injure/kill people for this to happen. www.thestar.com/news/gta/mul...

His inability to realize he needed to go away is very likely one of the big reasons why we’re in this fascist mess to begin with, so no I can’t think of anyone I’d want to hear from less right now than Joe Biden What’s he gonna say about social security that’s gonna help the situation

The DGA used to call its Lifetime Achievement Award the D.W. Griffith Award. It changed the name in 1999 in a move the National Society of Film Critics described as "a depressing example of political correctness." (which is was what they said instead of DEI, CRT or woke in those days) 🧵

I found this in the archived tools of Jordan Wick: a tool for determining the union status of (all?) government employees Combined with Wick's compromise of the National Labor Relations Board's computer systems, looks like a very powerful combo for destroying unions 🧵

It cannot be emphasized enough how complicit these anti-trans "centrist" pundits are in the current administration's wildly successful campaign to harm trans people in any way they can.

In maybe the Most Canadian story ever, two political parties (the NDP and Bloc Québécois) are asking that tomorrow's French language election debate be postponed because it conflicts with a Montreal Canadiens game.

I made myself very unpopular for two decades by enthusiastically backing DEI and rainbow capitalism while never letting my queer liberal friends think we were safe from corporations stabbing us in the back. There’s always a need to work with the business community but we must never trust them 👇🏼

There is power in a union. Immense love to @nycalamounited.bsky.social for seeing this through and forcing a deal. Looking forward to going back to the Drafthouse. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

Man films and confronts two suspected undercover ICE officers (potentially NYPD) after they racially profiled and handcuffed a random civilian. Keep doing this shit. Make these fuckers famous. Make all police and immigration officers fear having their faces known to the masses.

“But who will wait tables this summer in Hilton Head & the Vineyard” is not my personal biggest concern, but you would think rich people would be worried 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'm speechless at what is actual politics in America. It's white nationaism & misogyny made mutant in a lab.

Kinda assumed a "shut the fuck up about this" memo had gone from the Tories to Trump... guess not!

This is an interesting stance. I know a great number of queer people and activists who need to post anonymously but obviously there are too many bots and bad-faith debaters here too. Mike’s idea is certainly a good mental-health tool.

Our Toronto crew is amazing. It’s an honor to work with them on Strange New Worlds. The sound dept gave me this Canadian Flag sticker. A logical reminder of how much I appreciate Canada!

"the job market is a fucking byzantine nightmare because the job market has millions of fake listings on it so companies can harvest your data" seems like the kind of thing that should be no-brainer illegal, and yet

Again, I would like to see the kind of mental-health supports that would prevent the subway death but if America prefers Trump’s concentration camps after the fact, I guess that’s up to them 🫤
