I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Vagina Museum @vaginamuseum.bsky.social · 19/04/2025
A statement from the Board of Trustees of the Vagina Museum regarding trans inclusion.
The Vagina Museum Board of Trustees response to the UK Supreme Court ruling 

In light of the UK Supreme Court ruling, the Board of Trustees of the Vagina Museum wish to express their unequivocal support of and solidarity with their trans staff, volunteers, community partners, visitors and wider audience. 

From the outset, the Vagina Museum has always been trans inclusive. An important part of its mission around spreading knowledge and raising awareness of gynaecological anatomy and health has been to challenge normative assumptions around our bodies and how they may or may not be connected to experiences of gender, gender expression and broader sexuality. 

In doing so, we highlight that sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation and other characteristics related to sexual identity exist in various different combinations and their relationship to one another is never clear cut. What is clear to us is that everyone, regardless of their body parts, are deserving of human rights, dignity and the power to identity as they wish to. 
Just as we act as a forum for women’s reproductive health and rights from a feminist, inclusive and intersectional perspective; we will continue to advocate for trans+, non-binary and queer communities and rights. 

We cannot talk about feminism unless our feminism includes trans folks. 
We cannot talk about reproductive rights without trans rights. 
We cannot advocate for human rights without trans rights.

The ruling comes amidst an increasingly frightening climate for trans people in the UK and globally. We will continue to abide by our values, and ensure that the Vagina Museum remains a space in which trans people are included, welcomed and celebrated. 

In solidarity.

Colleges in Massachusetts aren't being told when students have visas revoked. The government is creating a situation where they can kidnap and disappear students in order to stoke fear. Full story: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/06/m...
He said administrators are not being told about these decisions, so have been scanning federal databases to find out when students have lost status. The situation has put international students at the university in a state of panic, Trivedi said.

The media can (and should) reject the Right's deceptive frame. This is not about "references to diversity, equity, and inclusion." It is a neosegregationist attempt to erase everyone but white males from the nation's history.

Fox News embedded with ICE during their raids in East Boston yesterday so they could do Trump propaganda.
Fox News embedded exclusively with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Boston as the agency targeted egregious criminal aliens, including MS-13 gang members and murder suspects, as part of mass deportation efforts under President Donald Trump.

Fox News witnessed ICE Boston make eight arrests, including multiple MS-13, Interpol Red Notices, murder and rape suspects, and a volatile Haitian gang member with 18 convictions in recent years who told our cameras that he "ain’t going back to Haiti" and "f--- Trump, Biden forever!"

The Act makes sense if you start from the premise of (1) police are very good at arresting only criminals and (2) the immigration system is efficient and doesn't leave people with messed up statuses. If you believe either, please also know I am the bank account inspector and I need your login info.

Related to recent discourse™, I've noticed how becoming anti-woke and/or anti-trans produce brain rot across every field of human inquiry. Once a person goes down that route, they become incapable of producing thoughtful / interesting commentary on any issue, even if they had in the past.
