Every state that doesn't ascribe to fascism should pass a version of this bill. If I have to show my papers to the Gestapo, the Gestapo needs to show me their face and their badge number.

hi friends! It's almost the weekend. Have you planned something fun offline? It could be reading a book, taking a long walk, going to a museum, seeing a friend, doing a craft, or cooking an elaborate meal. If you are sad, try not to be sad alone. And if you can, charge your phone away from your bed.

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

You do not have to pretend the Union and Confederacy were on equal footing because they both shot Americans. Good intentions alone can't justify everything. And they can be their own danger. But it's so much worse when we stop demanding people demonstrate good intent!

when you read arguments from skull-measurers about race and IQ, they're written as though they're talking about a two-peaked distribution with a little divot in the middle, but if you look at the Lynn data they're talking about, what they're actually saying is that there is virtually no overlap.

It’s really strange being reminded that “when I first heard about trans rights” is a thing that may have happened for some folks who I think are around my age only after the anti-(LGB but really gay) movement swung hard to go after trans people

We can debate lots of things. We cannot debate trans peoples' existence. That is not ethical or objective in any way. Trans people are here! We can either be good neighbors or be gross.

The reality is, there is a whole complex dedicated to steering the discourse towards "just asking questions" about trans rights. This focuses the conversation on super rare and narrow issues that, in most cases, aren't issues at all.

“I don’t know why teams are trying to attack Toumani Camara” is going to go down in history as one of the great and also completely obvious quotes.

So this isn’t gatekeeping or anything and if you didn’t believe in the Blazers until now I still am happy to cheer with you - but real fans are wearing their Toumaniac gear and also ordering more Toumaniac gear from www.basketghoul.com right now to celebrate

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".

"do transphobes know that..." no no they don't even if you give them the info they won't care i get the illusion that if you just explain well enough and use the correct arguments you'll change their minds, but if that strategy worked things would be very different today
