One bright spot for trans people in Montana: Today's SCOTUS decision does not touch Montana. That's because Montana overturned its gender affirming care ban through the state Supreme Court. States are allowed to have protections that go beyond the US constitution, and thus that ruling is unaffected.

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Whenever yall ask how these ppl today would treat Martin Luther king? I say look how they treat Rev barber. Most of the left has never heard of him and doesn't amplify the message of the poor ppls campaign, and the right would do everything in their power to keep it that way

cis people can and should speak out but probably more importantly they can and should use their privilege to ensure trans people speaking for ourselves get heard. cis and an outlet wants your thoughts? insist they include trans voices first.

It would be nice if we could stop framing democratic backsliding as an inevitable global phenomenon when plenty of democracies are perfectly fine with enforcing rule of law

So there is an anti-AI poison tool for visual art: www.technologyreview.com/2023/10/23/1... Where's the version for text?

This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI
The tool, called Nightshade, messes up training data in ways that could cause serious damage to image-generating AI models.

I had an ectopic pregnancy surgically removed in 2005. I was bleeding internally from a ruptured fallopian tube. If I had been denied or delayed this procedure I would have died in 2005. This is wrong and not “healthcare”. It’s about controlling women’s bodies.
