We despise the use of GenAI to produce images, and we will die on this hill. Please don’t play around with it, pass it off as harmless, or use it full stop. Art is an expression of human creativity, not a frivolous by-product of greed. #NoAI

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

I have eaten the groceries that were in the bag and which you were probably hoarding because tarrifs Forgive me They were expensive so overpriced so costly

Massive TDOV rally expected today from 4:00-6:00 at the National Mall between 3rd and 4th streets. Go there, I know many who will be there. Be with community and show your support for transgender people. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

Trump’s grand strategy is to Make America Hungary—one of the poorest, shittiest countries in Europe thanks to their own tin-pot dictator. Trump is copying Orban’s playbook.

This is what tyrants like Erdogan do- they kidnap people off the street and disappear them. We are now an authoritarian state like Turkey.

1. The 1Q 2025 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map is complete, and there are big changes. I have issued a "Do Not Travel" for transgender foreign citizens. Risk has deteriorated broadly across the US. Transgender youth see changes in previously safe states. Subscribe to support my journalism.

It should be obvious by now that Netanyahu won't stop until every Palestinian in #Gaza (and perhaps the West Bank) has been murdered, maimed or expelled. He wants it all. Governments like ours should cut off all military equipment, diplomatic support and other relations until the genocide ends.

Our official statement from Albert Sellars LLP on President Trump's recent executive order.

🚨🚨🚨 Yesterday, the President issued a striking memo threatening lawyers who take legal actions against his administration. This is an attempt to stop lawyers from holding the administration accountable and it is a DIRECT THREAT to the rights and freedoms of everyone in America.

There are scores of anti Trump/DOGE/Musk protests planned for April 5 handsoff2025.com

Reason 1000+ why I stopped practicing law. Even though I'll be paying my student loans until I'm 62.

In this interview Schumer says he agrees with Trump’s decision to pull $400 million from Columbia. A university in his own state. And he’s unconcerned about the unlawful arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, one of his constituents. He is a traitor who needs to resign.

I will never understand how "people" (monsters) can abuse and throw away angels like these. #pitbulls #rescuepits

W/o endorsing Marisa's assesement below, here's what you have to understand about NY D's. - often products of machine politics - live in constant fear of the NYPost - most intense political combat is reserved for leftists and progressive activists who they view as their primary threat

❗️We've filed a *new lawsuit* to prevent the Trump Administration from unlawfully withholding funding to nonprofits and others for essential programs funded by the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill! www.councilofnonprofits.org/pressrelease...

Might be time to take a page from the French protest playbook 🐄 💩

What the everloving fuck? I long ago gave up my subscription but this is a new low for @chronphilanthropy.bsky.social

"If the GOP could pull Trump’s dick out of their mouths long enough for the oxygen to return to their brains, they might see how batshit crazy it is to run a govt like this... But that would require a spine and these Republicans have the collective courage of a baby deer caught in a 6-lane highway."

I practiced at Big Law for 3 years and realized that even the most "progressive" firms made huge profits representing companies that screw over the rest of us. But money talks - 19 years later I still make less money than I did as a first year lawyer. Worth it. Even with paying loans until I'm 62.

Editor Commentary: Who does this to other people? To doctors, nurses, farmers, teachers, professors, scientists, veterans, working families, people with disabilities, children with special needs, poor people? What twisted, unnatural men.

🚨 JOB ALERT: Research Director, Center for Science & Democracy at @ucsusa.bsky.social. The work of this role in this moment where science is under attack is so important right now!

As a direct marketing fundraiser, this is terrible:

At least there's something good in this world. #pitbulls

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9
