This was the moment, just over a month ago, when the ADL could've put an end to Republicans doing Nazi salutes. They didn't. They chose instead to provide cover by calling it "an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm." Now the sieg heil salute has been normalized. The ADL literally had ONE JOB.

Did you know that for the past year I’ve been making a webcomic adaptation of all the original Sherlock Holmes stories? It started off as silly doodles while I read through the canon and quickly became an ongoing narrative that paired with a deep research dive into queer Victorian history.

@govwesmoore.bsky.social I don't know what you did to have Trump get you appointed to that NGA board but we in Maryland are watching you and Gov. Mills has set the bar You get one chance to show you're a leader for this moment. Step up or Step Aside

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

Following Elon Musk, the world's richest man, two speakers at CPAC, Steve Bannon, who was pardoned by Donald Trump, and Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, have now given Nazi salutes. This is a major scandal + should push us all to mobilize, protest, and call out #CPAC for what it is: a Nazi rally.

The bipartisan efforts to demonize and criminalize pro-Palestinian protestors have also contributed to the lack of mobilization of civil society against Trump, and this was EXACTLY what the right wanted when they cynically exploited Democrats' racism/desires to suppress any dissent.

I can't tell you how many times I've spoken to co-workers or family members about whats happening in the US and they eventually respond with: "yeah, everything is so awful that I had to tune out to preserve my mental health / productivity" I get it? but you're supposed tune the fuck back in

This is a stunning betrayal by Whitman Walker in DC. You CANNOT jettison the trans community to protect yourself. It’s shameful. I got my name changed at WWH. I have promoted their research. Now they are capitulating to save gay people at trans people’s expense by trying to erase us.

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

I think people need to sit down and process that the reason folks are pissed at the democrats and not the republicans is because you can't frame yourself as the hero of the story and then be a shitty hero it just does not fly

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

Malcolm X was assassinated 60 yrs ago today. See his timeless wisdom on the true meaning of “progress.” “If you stick a knife 9 inches in & take it out 6—that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound. They wont even admit the knife is there.”
