You also need to say this shit when people get fired for mentioning their personal gender or get roughed up for looking at ICE the wrong way. Come the fuck on. If you believe this, believe it for everyone.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

"the cruelty is the point" got sloganized out of meaning as so much messaging does, but basically reminds us that they are doing the atrocities on purpose, to cause fear and pain, because they benefit strategically and materially from it but also because they like it

Braiding is very hard. Physically challenging. I am trying to imagine the manual dexterity an automaton would need to have to braid well--and I think we are many years distant from that possibility. There is an assumption in the article that this is an easy skill. It's a racist assumption.

Draining public dollars and leaving kids behind. Public schools don’t do that, but charters and voucher schools do too often.

Here’s what pisses me off: the people who scream “censorship!!” the loudest are the same chuds who cheer when LGBTQ+ books are banned, drag shows are criminalized, or queer games are shadowbanned. It’s not about free speech—it’s about control.

Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill would kill over 830,000 jobs, increase pollution, and raise YOUR energy costs alone by as much as $400. This would be a total disaster for our communities, our planet, and our wallets. 📱 Call your senators at 202-224-3121 and tell them to kill this extreme bill.
Stop the Republicans' Rate Hike!

Repealing clean energy investments means:

You pay $400 more on your energy bills

Electricity prices increase by 50%

It's understandable we all mostly take it as a given that Trump doesn't bother to adhere to Constitution or the laws passed by Congress, but it is still both (a) absolutely necessary for our democracy and (b) good political strategy for Dems to file articles of impeachment over this.

It is really really sinking in for me the degree to which LLMs are the ultimate expression of right wing anti-intellectualism. Its proponents are literally mocking the idea that anyone would ever want to learn anything, know anything, develop any actual skill, or have a thought of their own.

At the core of the counterargument to Trumpism is the ideal that we are all in this together. There is no one who deserves neglect or suffering from the government because of their political views. Not even if they voted for the suffering of others.
