ok but i'll say it

If the government did a review of trans kids to see if their lives were better or worse the result would be overwhelming worse, and they know it, which is why they'll never do that review

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

What a goddamn nightmare documentedny.com/2025/04/14/i...

By far THE most important point on the "chestfeeding/breastfeeding debate" is that unless you're a trans man it literally could not affect you less and so you should mind your own business and fuck off I cannot emphasize how much that completely overshadows your stupid, worthless opinion

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

That’s illegal. FYI. No - Pam Bondi won’t do anything.

To the people who think racist authoritarians should be posting more on Bluesky: What the actual fuck is wrong with you, fuck off with that mealy-mouth "both sides" bullshit, thank you for your attention, now go fuck yourselves

The British media's war on trans people is so asymmetric it's unreal

No, russia's attack on Sumy wasn't 'a mistake.' No one accidentally uses a cluster munition warhead against a crowded city center on a major holiday. Neither was the bombing of the Kryvyi Rih playground a mistake, nor were the filmed murders of POWs. russia systematically uses terrorism as a weapon.

Breaking news: The European Commission is issuing burner phones and basic laptops to some US-bound staff to avoid the risk of espionage — a measure traditionally reserved for trips to China www.ft.com/content/20d0...

Almost certainly an anti-Semitic hate crime. And the President who is trying to tear up the American university system on the pretext of fighting anti-Semitism hasn't said a word.

BREAKING: The man who authorities said scaled an iron security fence in the middle of the night and broke into the Pennsylvania governor's mansion where he set a fire had planned to beat Gov. Josh Shapiro with a hammer if he found him, according to court documents. apnews.com/article/josh...

god damn this one’s a banger

I missed this one. This is proper creationist energy. Unbelievable that she is respected at all

I was literally JUST thinking about that old Whitest Kids U’ Know sketch - the “Grapist” - in relation to this nonsense, and then this reply came in. Like I said, the self-censorship truly cannot be parodied. And it’s infinitely more tasteless than just using *grown up words* for things.

Do you know the difference between “$2 trillion” and “$150 billion”? About $2 trillion.

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

The attempt to burn down the Pennsylvania Governor's mansion is pretty clearly an assassination attempt, and it's likely an antisemitic hate crime. It should be referred to that way by political media.

Absolutely

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

To everyone replying “they voted for it” when we talk about immigrant rights: The Hispanic community is NOT a monolith and 53% voted for Harris. We organized, knocked on doors, and led weekly caravans for Harris-Walz. Blanket statements erase the work of a community that showed up for democracy.

Let's celebrate YouTube's launch of an AI music feature with a video about how to potentially destroy it. youtu.be/xMYm2d9bmEA

This man is utterly unhinged.

i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.

This has to be against the Hippocratic Oath You have children who need help, you know what the best treatment recommended internationally is, they're already taking it, and you're legally required not to help them at all Really disgusting www.thepinknews.com/2025/04/11/w...

Last July, Project 2025's Kevin Roberts said “the second American Revolution ... will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.” It was a declaration of war against the American people, a demand for our surrender. Some cowards in law, academia and business have submitted. Many of us never will.

I hate every fuckin smarmy liberal on here who thinks they’re being so smart by just assuming all the Palestinians crowdfunding to survive on Gaza are just scammers. If you spent two minutes actually talking to even one of these people your heart would break. I know because mine did.

Unexpectedly scientific look into why so many AI company logos resemble... ::ahem::... velvetshark.com/ai-company-l...

Yup

The right for autistic people with intellectual disabilities (and other disabled people) to live outside of institutions was only granted by the US Supreme Court in 1999.

Cops are great

Hernandez: Why is there always money to bomb children in Gaza, but not enough to make sure every kid has a safe place to sleep in this country. We don't have a budget crisis. We have a crisis of our values
