After being forced out of the military, many trans service members have yet to receive tens of thousands of dollars in severance pay they are owed, leaving them destitute and homeless. (gift link) wapo.st/4qN0TNq

Between October 2025 and July 2026, the U.S. accepted 10,258 refugees. All but three (3!) were white South Africans. Regardless of your opinion of South Africa's laws and government, I don't know how you could call this anything other than an explicitly racist policy.

Washington Nat'l Opera sues the Kennedy Center alleging that the Center STOLE the opera's endowment. WNO had a longterm agreement where KC ran the opera's development back office, and in 2025 KC just ... stopped doing it and seized the funds. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

49. On January 8, the Kennedy Center’s Chief Financial Officer sent an email to
WNO’s General Director and Board President asserting for the first time and, contrary to the terms
of the 2024 Agreement, that the funds in the WNO BSRF belonged to the Kennedy Center. In
addition, the CFO disclosed that the Kennedy Center had used those funds—funds that the 2024
Agreement expressly required to be held for the long-term benefit of WNO—to collateralize the
Kennedy Center’s own line of credit.
50. The next day, on January 9, 2026, the WNO Board voted to terminate the 2024
Agreement. WNO’s Board President and Board Chair immediately notified the Kennedy Center
of that decision in a letter to Mr. Grenell and requested that the parties begin unwinding the
affiliation.

When you have senior white male military officers willing to end their career by raising concerns about the blocking of Black and female officers, it feels safe to say this isn't about ending DEI: the better historical parallel is Wilson's resegregation of the bureaucracy bsky.app/profile/nbcn...

All but three (!) of the 1,651 refugees admitted into the United States in the three most recent months we have data are white South Africans. For comparison, in 2024, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees. It's an explicit white supremacist project. www.rpc.state.gov/documents/Re...

Please read this long but important thread from an immigration defense attorney. If this administration is permitted to scale its current abuse, neglect, and inhumane treatment of immigrants to the breadth and scope for which they’re currently planning, we’ll all be witness to mass atrocities.

Cw: suicide This article is devastating. Earlier this month, a 15-year-old died by suicide the day after posting about a substitute teacher insisting on misgendering him. Suicide can have many contributing factors. His family is speaking out about bullying and misgendering as two.

Hmm, I should *really* get to actually refollowing everyone on here that I follow on the hell site (sadly can't *completely* dump that site cause of foreign artists I follow). I've been mainly using Bluesky for a long while now, but I keep being too lazy to get around to doing all that. x3

Last night, we were one of the first outlets to report the ADULT ban on gender affirming care for Medicaid recipients who depend on it to access it. This morning, that bill passed 215-214-1. It now goes to the senate. It's a bleak day for transgender Americans.
