The irony is, it won't get him votes. Republicans aren't going to vote for him, and now some Democrats won't, either. You know what would get him votes? Standing up for marginalized communities, like trans people.

Remembering how during the Claudine Gay scandal, one of its biggest promoters of the story was Bill Ackman. Then someone uncovered that Ackman's own wife was a professor alleged to have committed much more serious academic misconduct than Gay and then nothing happened to her.

“A recent study published in The Journal of Pediatrics adds yet another data point…finding that suicidality scores dropped significantly an average of two years and up to five years after patients received gender-affirming treatment.” Gender affirming care helps save young trans lives. It’s simple.

I was a historian of the atomic bomb decision from 1989-95 and coauthored an 800+ page book on the politics behind the decision. I’ve seen a lot of documentaries, but this is new to me. There were 78 people who survived underneath the explosion. This is how some of them survived. One is still alive.

I will never forget waking up at 3am every morning as they turned the floodlights on outside to place more bodies into the mobile morgue outside my window. Everyone’s beloved dead, stacked nightly like so much excess, while the waking city was a claustrophobic nightmare. Never.

A letter from the mother of Alex Pretti, six months after he was murdered by ICE.
suzpretti
18 hours ago

Today marks the six-month anniversary of Alex's murder. No one has been held accountable, no apologies, not a single phone call from any governmental official, hospital personnel, or the mpls police dept. Six-months of pain, a roller-coaster of trauma over and over. Every time another a death, another mention, a picture, a tribute, a sorrow so deep. I wonder how to move forward. Will I ever get over this loss and this pain?
Will I ever be able to enjoy life again? How does one live knowing that I have no power to change what has happened?

And yet the outreach not only from Minnesota, but from around the world has been nothing less than spectacular. Every card, every gift, every heartfelt letter has been read, touched, held, and cherished by us all. The kindness you've all shown us is beyond words. Please never forget Alex and what he believed in ~ equality and peace for all. I will remember the things that made you, you. It will never take your memory. As long as I'm here, you will never be forgotten.

For all you asking what you can do. Continue this fight. Never give up your right to speak out, protect your neighbor, your community and don't forget to spend time with those you love...

the only people who could ever earnestly support means testing are people who've never had to be means tested before. it is a humiliating, dehumanizing bureaucratic hostage negotiation with a system whose primary purpose is to *not* provide financial support as often as humanly possible

The fact that they can quickly install data centers nationally means they could've been updating infrastructure which they claimed was to difficult and expensive.

A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

In the 1960's, when the USA led the world w/ blue-chip companies in every field, the average CEO-to-worker pay ratio for major corps was 20-to-1. Now, CEO's are paid about 300 times as much as the typical worker. Those CEO's don't work any harder nor are they more deserving.

The best way to get to the bottom of the McConnell question is for the governor to appoint a replacement. The GOP legislature passed a law stripping him of that power, but it goes against the state constitution. If they refuse to seat the replacement, take them to court. There’s zero downside.

One of the reasons I wanted to move back up to the PNW is bc of how brown & smoke-ridden LA was getting each year. Then it came for the PNW, too. Growing up in Seattle, we only had a handful of 80+ days in the summer, and NEVER smoke weather. Now heatwaves and air quality alerts are a June-Oct norm.

Why the fuck is the Department of Homeland Security allowed anywhere near our election records? DHS was created specifically to protect against "terrorist acts." Even if the lies about China were true and they were meddling in our elections, the thugs of DHS and ICE have no role investigating it.

”abolish ICE“ means (1) abolishing a particular agency and (2) salting the earth so that nothing that does what it does can ever emerge again—no matter what it‘s called or who is in charge of it.
