"JK Rowling is already a billionaire and everyone already knows about Harry Potter, what's the point of boycotting?" Nobody thinks boycotting will bankrupt her. We know she's gonna die rich. We're just asking you to show a shred of solidarity with trans folk. Absolute low bar bare minimum shit.

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Asked why the WNBA continues to experience these heightened distractions, Cloud said, "Men."
"The men now that are like 'Oh, we need to protect the WNBA,’ y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't be paid," Cloud continued. "Y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't have been invested in, saying we're a joke, the same ones that don't respect Black women. So, if you're going to protect women, that means all women. That includes Black women, trans women and the list goes on."

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottomA nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."A mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

Don’t read Frazier's 35.95% as a sign that Hennepin voters don’t want a progressive attorney. The data says the opposite. To start: Frazier finished first in 227 of 394 precincts. Folk: 1st in 74, 2nd in 115, and 3rd-5th in 206 (more than half the precincts in Hennepin County).

4 panel comic

Panel 1:
A post from “kavishj9611” that reads: 

“All the people who are anti-Al or want to slow Al progress, I have one question:
If Al disappeared tomorrow, could you still get through an entire workday without ChatGPT, Claude, or any other
Al tool?
Imagine Al was suddenly banned.
Would you actually be willing to give it up?”

Panel 2:
And Orange Guy and a Pink Guy are standing in a room that has two pipes in it. Both pipes are pumping raw sewage into the room. The characters are waist deep in it.
Orange Guy says smugly “Ok Mr “I don’t want to be in a room that’s filling up with raw sewage” let me ask you this”

Panel 3:
The sewage has reached their chests. Pink Guy is gagging. Orange Guy smugly continues “If all this sewage disappeared right now, could you get through the day without it?”

Panel 4:
The sewage is almost up to their eyeballs. Orange Guys says “Look at that shit floating past your face. Are you willing to give that up?”

My statement responding to the repeated racist and Islamophobic attacks by All of Minneapolis (AOM)
Text reading “FATEH
for MINNESOTA SENATE
STATEMENT: SENATOR OMAR FATEH RESPONDS TO RACIST & ISLAMOPHOBIC ATTACKS BY ALL OF MINNEAPOLIS (AOM)
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - "Today, we all saw yet another instance of a racist and xenophobic dog whistle from Karin Birkeland and the All of Minneapolis PAC - red-baiting and directly attacking my public service to the people of Minnesota as a State Senator.
The statements made in All of Minneapolis' email from this morning are absolutely disgusting. It is this exact kind of harmful rhetoric that is driving the hatred and divisiveness in our politics.
This is the latest example of a repeated pattern of discrediting and dehumanizing our elected leaders of color. Leaders like myself face countless death threats, racist comments, and violent messages daily - but this is a new low. All of Minneapolis continues to go back to their same old disgusting dirty tactics, spreading blatant lies and fear-mongering.
After the year we have been through with Operation Metro Surge, Minnesotans are sick of this politics of fear and division- point blank period.
DFL Party Leadership cannot continue to stay silent on the blatant harm and lies spread by All of Minneapolis. I am disheartened by the culture of enabling this kind of racism, xenophobia, and red-baiting by individuals in positions of power like Chair Richard Carlblom, who has yet to release any statement condemning this type of behavior. It is a complete and utter failure and sadly has been what I have come to expect from the politics of the DFL and its State Chair.
I represent the district with the most unmet needs and have fought tooth and nail every day to improve the lives of my neighbors and fellow Minnesotans. This is what the Southside is all about, and that's the leadership we deserve.
Now, more than ever, we need leaders who will not fold. We will not back down.
Solidarity, comrades."
