I cannot state this strongly enough: Trans healthcare is literally lifesaving. I would not be here today if it were not a thing. It is not something that can be put off in a healthy way, it is not a frivolous lark. We exist, and we hurt in ways that most cis people cannot start to understand.

They’re also people who can’t name another woman athlete besides Caitlin Clark

its insane how not many people are talking about how republicans with the help of several moderate democrats are building out the largest abusive medical conversion therapy operation in modern american history

This is just straight up Klan shit. Fuck every one of them

That's all of us too, in our every day lives, not just talking a good game online

There can never be another "water under the bridge" administration ever again, and part of that is going to involve shaming everyone on board with this one - voters included - as the disgusting pig racists they are

Just a reminder that there is no good data to support these uses in K12, we are just testing it live all on kids who won’t ever be these ages again and can’t get them back if we fuck it up.

I love being reminded that the audience really doesn’t give a shit about the developers. Like, forget that one of the most influential studios in our industry was just executed by its publisher, just make sure the product continues on the assembly lines!

I see the same thing with Dragon Age, people calling on EA to give the IP to another studio. A lot of folks keep bringing up Larian. Ignoring the demand that EA pick the pockets and hold an estate sale before the body is cold, it’s such a disrespectful move - to the devs, BioWare, and even Larian.

The achievement of Serbian students overthrowing Aleksandar Vučić can't be overstated. In 2024, they began protesting. In 2025, they transformed a protest movement into civil dissidence. In 2026, they became a political party — and two months later, crushed a corrupt state-entrenched authoritarian.

Hire more trans journalists so we can ask this question in other states around the country.

Hi. I, a trans woman, am the Executive Producer of this show. I wrote the question. He called trans girls men. He has now said it in three different places in the past week.

"i'm sure these ai companies are using these kind of statistics to make it look like ai is the future. how long would it take your average dev to write 5000 lines? well there's the exact catch; a dev would not write 5000 lines for this problem!"

The man decided to wear a tan suit one day and it was discourse for weeks Like Obama wasn't who I thought he was; but the response to him by the right showed me they were exactly who I thought they were

it might be heartless of me but sometimes I wish I could grant the first part of that wish for them :/

Here's some shorter clips I managed to save before the VOD disappeared. I'll cut them in EVEN shorter clips in order to translate them per post: "[Michael] Gamble was in tears, when he had to announce it to the team. He could barely speak... It's sickening."

I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.

Google was really trying to hide its water use figures, to the degree that it got the council to try to keep its water use figures secret. The community finally got the actual numbers and found out Google was using 29 percent of the water in the community. www.wired.com/story/what-t...

Yes. VBNMW folks don't like being told that defending trans rights is necessary to get trans people to vote and get those votes counted. With IDs being cancelled while IDs are increasingly required to vote & w officials at highest levels saying our gender is "fraud," we risk arrest with every vote.

The richest person in human history is bankrolling Republican campaigns up and down the ballot, but Obama's Cheesecake Factory comment shows which party is out of touch.

I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

There are some people who claim "oh, Dems in blue states will never shift towards enacting anti-trans policy" Meanwhile Colorado is literally enacting a medical detransition protocol for trans youth on medicaid.

The worst part about democrats bailing on trans rights is that cis people don't understand these aren't new things we're asking for it's shit we already had. We're being robbed of rights we've had for decades.

I think it's worth noting that when Republicans say they're "tough on crime" they mean Black and Brown people, not crime.

I love getting to coach in creepy makeup. I won't have the mouth part of this while actually coaching because make, but I think I am going to try some variant of this look for the coming games.

Sorry man this guy’s gotta lose I don’t care who the fuck he’s running against. If these loudly anti-trans Dems don’t lose, it’s going to take us thirty years to get back the rights we’ve lost in the past five.

What I wrote about Gavin Newsom a year ago is never more applicable to several Democrats today. I foresaw this coming, and I continue to hold this true.

This is a point that I always want to really hammer home when it comes to environmental matters It’s not about being overly-optimistic, it’s about understanding that there’s machinery at play that wants you to believe that we’re cooked and done, that’s betting on people letting go and giving up

By my count, that is the twelfth time an ICE-chartered aircraft has flown past EG since Judge Hinderaker ordered the government to facilitate his return. Yes, the judge is aware.

getting to watch my first live motogp sprint and good Lord phillip island is delivering on its promised intensity

We found that as of right now 73% of your campaign donation goes back to the consultants and vendors (!!!), four times more than just 20 years ago. Only 13% to ads. Even I was shocked.

Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...

seems like "on the orders of a nazi every major news outlet on the planet hounded an innocent man to death because he's black" should be one of the biggest stories of the year

That empowers ICE agents to jail you for, in reality, any reason, and you have no access to an ADMINISTRATIVE remedy until DOJ decides to give you a hearing. That is chilling!

Think about that for a moment. You’re walking your dog and ICE agents snatch you. The constitution affords you no opportunity to argue that you should be released while the merits of the government’s allegation are tested

i don't care how jk rowling is justifying her murderous bigotry today actually. over 600 transgender ppl have died in the uk in the last 18 months bcos of policies she demanded the british government implement. she is a monster. i don't care how much you like harry potter.

I'm not saying I won't vote for Democrats 2 years from now, and this years ballot is already submitted, but it's different having DCCC funds attack trans people vs. specific candidate's funds being used to attack me. If the party is against me, it cannot expect my support. It's that simple.

what was I saying about denial of resources being systemic violence? :/
