I want to make it aggressively obvious that this generic as hell cis man stands now and forever in solidarity alongside my trans neighbors, friends, and family members. This is utterly nonnegotiable. While there is a lower class, I am in it.

It's tempting to see Trump's Alaskan adventure as more electoral skullduggery. But it's a dangerous escalation of his attacks on democracy. He's not trying to suppress votes, he's trying to steal votes that have already been cast. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...

thenation.comTrump Just Told Us How He Intends to Steal the MidtermsThe Alaska case is a red flag that Trump has no intention of accepting the results of an election that Republicans lose.

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.

"AI can draft an essay for you, especially if you give it a high quality prompt." Really? This is what MIT thinks high schoolers should learn? MIT's "Day of AI" dayofai.org provides materials for K-12 teachers and claims to have reached over 5,000,000 students to date. 1/2

Washington State’s millionaires tax will fund universal free school meals for every public school student in the state. Unless voters repeal the tax. Vote NO on I-645!

Katie Bergh@katiebergh.bsky.social

About 2 million kids have lost SNAP since deep cuts were enacted last year. The ripple effects: Kids losing SNAP also lose automatic enrollment for free meals at school. And as more kids lose SNAP, their schools may be forced to drop Community Eligibility.

Seattle isn’t losing kids, but SPS is losing enrollment to private schools. Rather than recruit those families back, SPS is engaging in a secretive closure process that will simply cause more families to flee the district. Closing schools doesn’t save money, of course. I explain here:

Trump on renaming things: "We have a lake, we have a gulf. We need a river, an ocean, and a strait. So I've got the strait. That's the Strait of Hormuz. We're gonna call it the Trump Strait ... I want to change the the name of the Atlantic Ocean to the American Ocean."

There is a multi-billion dollar INDUSTRY built around monetizing uncertainty and institutionalizing fucking gambling. Casinos? Craps? Card games? Slots? That's boomer shit. Today's gambling addicts bet on EVERYTHING! Poverty and capitalism has eroded people's brains into mush.

Trump screaming the quiet part out loud. Trump himself brags about ordering DOJ to file a lawsuit against Alaska. That means that this is NOT a legal decision based on facts or the law. It is a purely political move directed by Trump to disrupt the election. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Doctors and nurses are voicing their objections. I-638 would require EVERY girl who wants to participate in sports to go through biological sex verification. That means expensive, invasive, and utterly gross examinations. Protect our kids and let them play. Vote NO on I-638

JD Vance: "Now the media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and call Amy Acton a liar"

We are in a global struggle against fascism. Our concern is the maintenance, defense, and expansion of our democracy. A united front, if you like. Our internal disagreements are irrelevant in the face of this threat. We can bicker tomorrow, but we have to get there first.

@jessiegender.bsky.social is right, actually, and interpreting this as “there’s zero difference between Pete Buttigieg and Donald Trump” seems to me to indicate a certain carelessness in reading comprehension. Do vote, of course, for the love of god. But voting will not be nearly enough.

"There's zero difference between Pete Buttigieg and Donald Trump" is one of those takes that sounds knowledgeable and spicy but it's actually just stupid.
