I just think we wouldn't be in this situation if mainstream publications .... hired more trans and queer journalists .... and then actually promoted them instead of including them in the first round of layoffs......

i am incredibly excited to share our research about how paying people’s rent through mutual aid made an impact on minnesota this year we accidentally collected more data than anyone ever has for an effort like this, and can very seriously say we prevented an eviction bubble that everyone expected

Channel 5/Andrew Callaghan probably broke the law in multiple jurisdictions by giving his subscribers' email addresses to Hunter Biden, according to a data protection expert we spoke to. Channel 5's own privacy policy says it won't share data like this www.404media.co/channel-5-ga...

A data protection lawyer told 404 Media the sharing was likely illegal, and Channel 5’s own privacy policy explicitly says it won't give subscribers’ emails away to people for marketing purposes.

Congress granted funds to restore 988 services for LGBTQ+ youth months ago. But it's still gone. Here's what it looks like when a service like this is ended; almost 70,000 people reaching out for help, then a cliff.
This image shows an area chart demonstrating that calls, texts or chats to 988 by LGBTQ+ youth seeking specialized services through "option 3" rose continuously from September 2022 to July 2025 — then suddenly dropped down to zero, since the option was discontinued. The visualization looks like a cliff.
