Big fan of the social contract covering everyone, but especially the vulnerable and marginalized who need it the most. Exclude no one. I'm not a legal client but if I were I'd be your legal client.

"Mohammed is the most common name in the world, yet when Alaskans vote for their next senator, they’ll find two Dans Sullivan and zero people that Islamophobes can scapegoat." buff.ly/VlHrHsU

We often see comments that go something like "look, this candidate is in a very purple/red area, their anti-trans ad makes sense for where they are." So what stakes are required before a pro-segregation agenda/ad becomes 'understandable'? Nakedly white nationalist? The one implies the other, right?

In case you see this post claiming that Acton's statement is "misinformation" floating around, it's deceptive to the point of being false.

The Rooster@rooster.info

Dr. Amy Acton's campaign is out with a statement:

I dunno if seeing regular people contribute is impetus or not, but just in case - Shepherd is one I consider an OG good folk, with the kind of people saying good things about them that I would one day like to have saying good things about me. And I am POOR, y'all. Seriously. Disability, the whole

Shepherd@neolithicsheep.bsky.social

Hey y'all. So normally I am a reasonably private person despite appearances which makes this sort of humiliating. My life is more or less in the process of burning down. There's a family wedding coming up in 3 weeks. I'd like to go.

Always love to see prominent people post a substack article about taking rich white nationalists down a peg. Robert Reich is the latest. I want to ask him if he dictated the "Defund Musk!" article using Grok from behind the wheel of his cybertruck. Get off substack like you should/did get off X.

Gonna anonymize / generalize this a bit, but I worked for a subcontractor of a govt agency. They lost their contract via underbid and I was aggressively recruited by the new subcontractor. I knew my worth so for once in my life I basically felt like I was interviewing a company (+)

AFTER taking the job, on the first day, that the company had a terrible reputation, the kind of reputation that had regulators perk up when they saw the name. No I'm not dealing with that shit. Noped out on the first day, all kinds of threats, but they couldn't do anything and they knew it.

for the privilege of my services, and they had a deadline looming to have all the wheels greased so they didn't demur. (This was mostly points about how the actual work got done and not pay, bc that was set by contract, and was quite decent.) This industry is highly regulated, and I learned (+)

This Day in Labor History: October 16, 1859. John Brown and a group of followers invade the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (today WV) to start a war and end slavery. Let's talk about this key moment in American labor history!

I have seen so many takes that boil down to "Golly RFK Jr nd Oz are stupid! They don't know how insurance works!" They absoLUTEly know how insurance works. They know healthy premium payers who make no claims are the gas in the risk pool car. This is deliberate sabotage. Next up: "It's failing!"

RFK Jr announces a new initiative to kick people off their healthcare coverage but insists it's no big deal because "they don't even know they were enrolled in anything. They never make a claim."

adult friend finder could have been such a great website but they wasted the name on the same shit a million other sites had. "dads in your area want to drill a few holes in scrap wood and drink three beers" imagine getting that popup

I won't sully her thread with my unasked-for manswer but my regular/PCP is a woman, and she's the best doctor I've ever had. There is also a statistically-demonstrated trend that shows male doctors undertreat women, and ~all doctors do that to women of color, particularly Black. Wait, if you can.

women and women only, how long would you wait to see a specialist if it means you’d be able to see a female doctor

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

Democrats don't run people who turn out to be fucking garbage sell out cowardly pieces of shit challenge. I don't care if you're in a fucking red state @drannieandrews.com, you're not going to get red votes with this and you're going to lose blue votes. This is DEMORALIZING. 'Why vote at all' shit.

SC Dem Senate nominee Annie Andrews released an ad calling trans women "biological men." She embraces sports and surgery bans for youth. Her campaign even says she won't work to overturn the HRT/blocker trans youth ban. She once argued against capitulation. Subscribe to support our journalism.
