12 Dem Senators and 48 Dem House members voted for the Laken Riley Act—allowing US Govt to deport immigrants on the mere accusation of a crime. As you see those 60 Dems complain about Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, or Kilmar Abrego Garcia, among many more—please know they enabled this fascism.

The markets learned nothing from covid. The current reaction is from the belief that the tariffs will be over in a couple of weeks.

For what it's worth, Caves of Qud is a game with multiple trans developers on the team and multiple trans characters in the game. The game is crawling with neopronouns and celebrates radical bodily autonomy. We have already been targeted by reactionaries and we thrived anyway.
