When I was a reporter on Capitol Hill, I’d tell reporters to just ask lawmakers if they want citizens’ genitals to be checked. For two years, I told them that would be the thing. Hill reporters thought it would kill their sources to ask that question.

When anyone suggests having a “decentralized CBC where all local broadcasters prioritize their local communities” I get annoyed because that used to exist in the private sector. We called it CTV. It was affiliate run, with a collectively funded national newsroom. Then Bell bought it.

Rowling, like Musk, demonstrates why the ultra-wealthy cannot be allowed to be so: because they use their wealth to buy the world they want to live in

The reason our Target boycott has been so effective is because of the focus on a single company and organizing around it. Not a temporary boycott with an end date or a rolling boycott, not multiple corporations at a time, a focused, strategic boycott. Stay tuned for more.

Amazing that there are people going after David Hogg for running primary challenges to their favorite smol bean Democratic leaders. Like what are you hanging your hat on at this point, they are demonstrably failures on every front that actually matters, take the L. If they're so great, they'll win

I’m old enough to remember when this kind of guy insisted that wearing a cloth mask to stop the spread of COVID was an unbearable assault by government on our human rights 🤷‍♂️

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges. Good luck! 🫡

The left was right once again. ICE should have been abolished, police should have been defunded, instead Dems boosted both. Now look at where we are.

Dear @governor.ca.gov I watched your ad asking Canadians to ignore Trump and come spend money in your state. It doesn't work that way. Your country threatened our sovereignty. That's war. Focus your ads on Trump voters: attacking a former ally will cost dearly. In Canada we hold the line. #elbowsup

“I feel very protective… transgender people are on the edge of our culture. And here you have one of the most successful people in the frigging world — Ms. Rowling — going after a very emotionally vulnerable portion of our culture. It just seems unnecessary and unfair.” ~ Clive Barker 🩵🤍🩷

This is the same perverse Nazi logic that led Hans Asperger to distinguish between Autism and Asperger's Syndrome: those children who would be killed and those who would be used. Don't get bogged down in arguments about ability or humanity. These are overtures to genocide.

Apologies, everyone! Jimmy Kimmel told a joke and I didn’t laugh at it so that’s why we have Trump now. I’M SORRY, I SHOULD HAVE LAUGHED PLEASE FORGIVE ME, AMERICA 😭

I'm not a big Seth Rogen fan but he gave an interview recently where he basically said "comedy is supposed to be hard and if you can't make people laugh without saying racist or hateful shit maybe you're not funny" and it's like yeah

Worth noting that Paul Tough, author of the NYT "thinkpiece" about ADHD (he thinks it's overdiagnosed & overmedicated) is also the same grifter who convinced the education world that teaching "grit" (kids need to learn to be tougher) is the solution to the problem of late stage capitalism.

I'm not Jewish but I must admit it was horrifying when Trump said 'Chuck Schumer isn't Jewish anymore' and somehow that wasn't a headline story for days. Guy who isn't Jewish says I'm the Arbiter of Judaism and that's not an obvious tell of what comes next?

As a Canadian, I understood how universal healthcare could lower costs but what blew my mind was that, for Americans, health insurance is tied to employment. Losing your job is catastrophic, and this reminds us that all these battles for rights are intertwined

My straight, white, cis, privileged MP was gurning on GB News today, gloating about a ruling that affects her not one bit but denies every trans person rights and dictates how lesbians are supposed to define themselves and I hate her with every fibre of my being.
