the problem is the people who have intentionally veered into me on my bike ride to work were intentionally enacting violence on me. so. maybe we SHOULD talk about that

Y'all, beloved community, that I care for as you care for me in true understanding we share of loving mutuality so we all survive, at this time I badly need mutual aid. This ain't no scam. I'm not secretly rich. I'm on medicaid. I'm recovering from the serious trauma of getting committed by cops.

i do not give a shit about public opinion. no one in america legitimately does. public support for policy does not remotely track with implemented policy. money spent on an issue does, directly. triangulating around 'public opinion' while the other side pumps money in gives away the game

I have a duty to the children to raise my library voice and say, "Free Palestine." It is not too dangerous to say. It is human decency. Palestinian people are worthy of tomorrow. We are human.

well, lol. wear a helmet folks. the government might not be doing enough to prevent car deaths, but if you got hit by a car there's a non zero chance that a helmet would still save your life. modeling good behavior is good and the mayor should do it.

when will we admit that trump voters did in fact have agency and were not duped into anything. they did sign up for this. it's all trump campaigned on. people may have lied to you and themselves about what they thought they were doing but they voted for a guy who promised to do exactly this

Americans hear "51st state" as Trump trolling. Canadians hear it as an existential threat to their sovereignty. That gap in perception is why Carney can't afford to look conciliatory, even if the economics of retaliation don't add up. This isn't just a trade war anymore.

Thanks to @aoc.bsky.social for helping give me (and many others, I imagine) the courage to share my maternal health care story. www.thehandbasket.co/p/miscarriag...
While I’ve gotten through the highest high of being pregnant to the depths of despair in miscarriage, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been publicly walking us through her egg freezing journey. Two distinct processes, to be sure, but both with the spectre of motherhood at their core. It is, in my view, a radical act to so thoroughly demystify an otherwise opaque process; and I do believe her radical transparency helped give me some of the courage to share my experience with you. I’ve rid myself of the cobwebs of shame that I hadn’t even realized had been spun around me.

as a canadian living in the US, i don't think i can fully express exactly to what extent even this post is downplaying the issue. my coworkers joke to my face about using the military to kill my family and annex my home. it's worse than being spat on, which has happened to me irl as well.

I wrote about the irony of Platner and his campaign trying to convince journalists, commentators and voters that they had outsmarted the trappings of traditional masculinity, only to come crashing down as a result of it:
thehandbasket.co
We didn’t need a rape accusation to know Graham Platner was unfit
Despite months of red flags, his allies insisted he was the vision of positive masculinity the party needed.

DOJ's fight against trans medical care in prison is a fight to erase trans people in the law
"The pendulum has swung," DOJ's Jared Littman said in a court hearing Wednesday, arguing that all transgender people — at all ages — can be denied needed medical care.
