Never sell anyone out. In fact, if you're asked about banning 12-year-olds from softball, just say, "You're asking me to sell out kids for my political career. I'm not going to do that. Let's stop demonizing people in tougher circumstances than you or I will ever experience. They have guts."

i am incredibly excited to share our research about how paying people’s rent through mutual aid made an impact on minnesota this year we accidentally collected more data than anyone ever has for an effort like this, and can very seriously say we prevented an eviction bubble that everyone expected

Once again this isn't like gay marriage. We're not asking for something new. We're asking not to lose rights we've had for decades. When Dems say they agree with enacting new restrictions on trans people, that's a betrayal. They are actively going out of their way to harm trans people.

You could decarbonise the entire European Union’s fleet of datacentres by running them on clean energy, and this one project would undo all that hard work globally. And for what?

For context all of Germany, the 4th largest economy in the world is around 3GW of datacentre capacity so this is like adding three Germany’s worth of datacentres and powering it all with fossil gas 😬

It's absurd how they can bring these challenges with no claim of discrimination and no trans people involved. There are no facts to determine. They get a court to strip trans people of their rights without hearing from them or even assessing actual facts. It's such a farce of justice.

Let’s be clear about Delaney Hall. A private, for-profit detention center run by GEO Group. Their business model is making money off human beings. Their incentive isn’t dignity. It isn’t fairness. It isn’t even deportation. Their incentive is keeping beds full and keeping the money flowing.

sometimes headlines can give the wrong impression but this is exactly what it says on the tin. this is despicable. it took a phenomenal, expensive, coordinated effort to get from north carolina losing 400 million dollars & a gubernatorial race over a bathroom ban to this in 10 years.
According to the ACLU, in the course of advancing the bill, the South Carolina Senate amended it "so that schools can install a temporary outdoor facility for transgender students — in other words, a porta-potty."
