Coming up for air: I cannot comprehend continued layoffs throughout tech, especially in games, when industry leading product releases still lead to layoffs. PEOPLE OVER PROFIT. I now go back down into my hole trying to figure what, if anything, I can do to help mold a better futute.

Vance visiting Dachau and then meeting w the AfD and urging German politicians to welcome them into government is a "gotta hear both sides" for the ages.

He’s so desperately wants to be taken seriously. But he’s a clown- A joke.

Numbers are kind of interesting. US GDP in 2023 was 27.36T. The population was 335M. Divided out, that's $81K for every man, woman, AND CHILD. If you do it by workforce, 172M people = $159K each. That's what a "fair share" for work looks like.

In a new lawsuit filed against Trump by state AGs, a family with a trans kid shares she died by suicide last month citing fears Trump would deny her access to gender-affirming care. "Her parents have expressed fear...that what happened to their daughter does not happen to other children."

cis people who’ve spoken out in support, sympathy, or frustration about the state of trans rights recently: thank you so much. it is a huge comfort to know people care. warms my heart every time

Remember. It’s never: We fight for (these people) because maybe we’re more at risk if we don’t. No more Niemölling. We fight because they are coming for anyone. Every single person matters. Each and every human being’s life and safety is worth the fight.

Welcome to the resistance.

One more reason to boycott the NFL.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

If you have students who are trans no you don’t. If you have students of color who may be affected by ICE no you don’t. If anyone asks you gender or racial the makeup of your class you don’t have to tell them. Protect your class and protect your students by not complying in advance. They trust you.

only appropriate political response here is to demand the white house explain how its actions aren’t responsible www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Jesus christ, that cheeky smile at the end? He knew exactly what was up. This is not normal. It will never be normal. We won't let it be normal.

At this point, “woke” just means “not a terrible person.”

Yuuuuuup

I went to renew my passport the other day. They said it was more crowded than usual, and I saw multiple Latino families in line. Lovely mothers, fathers and kids waiting patiently, their hair combed nicely for the pics. I can't assume, but I know in my heart what prompted this and it made me so sad.
