Pride is a celebration. And an observance. And a protest. It came from a riot. Pride is not about gayness -certainly not just gayness- but about being marginalized. It’s about respect, safety, livelihood, equality and ability to be one’s whole self.

Meta's smart glasses make it easy to secretly film people. It's mostly women bearing the fallout. "...a stranger had secretly recorded her using smart glasses and uploaded the video to Instagram and TikTok, where it amassed more than 30,000 views in the span of a week." www.cbc.ca/radio/thecur...

If you buy into such mythology, that is the Holy Spirit speaking through him right there. That's what it's supposed to be about. That is real godliness. That is a preacher internalizing what they preach. If Christianity hadn't fallen so far from this legend's perch, we wouldn't be where we are.

Icymi the goal in this case is the entire dismantling of the education department which is already underway. An uneducated populace is a compliant populace because they believe the controlled narrative without critical thought.

When I see companies cutting jobs because "with AI we can do the same with fewer people" I instantly think about the quality of their products, customer service, everything. They're dropping people with years of understanding of their business & customers — to stand still. As if that were success.

Yep. I don't recall a time in history where limiting someone else's rights added to my own. It isn't some strange zero sum game, wherein if someone transitions or wants to, it lessens me. Hurting someone else DOES lessen me, however. It makes us all smaller.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores. TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti. Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret. Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

He made a statement that aligns fully with the UCMJ…it’s not about first am rights (may surprise folks how much is suspended in the military). It is about NOT having done what he’s accused of, and the line between private and military life. Also censuring an elected official executing *that* duty.

I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children. They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.

Rvery area is different but I believe people want to show up in a room together and tell officials how they feel about surveillance. The entire political spectrum was represented in those spaces because everyone cares about privacy! And privacy is a group project, something we give to each other.

Feeling this again. So often there’s a social media post like “Person X said thing Y and I’m super pissed” and when you dig down they said Z, not Y, and Z wouldn’t have made me mad. But now that I’m already mad about Y, even if I acknowledge it wasn’t right, I’ve got to justify why Z is just as bad.
