the republicans are wide open on several fronts, historically unpopular president, unpopular war, record high gas. any dem throwing trans people under the bus at this moment is doing it because they want to. not like they need to, do they. even if it worked as a vote winner, which it doesn't

as i've said before on how dems were shitty to queers like me in the 00s: *we still weren't the ones getting bombed*. people really can't wrap their head around the bombs. the bullets. the sheer scale of difference there.

the end effect of "look we're totally on your side but we just can't stand up for you right now, you're too much of a hot topic because republicans are attacking you" is "we will stand up for you, and fight for your rights, as soon as republicans pick a different target"

fascinating that only america and its chosen favorites get to have histories and historical figures that are nuanced and complicated and cannot be simply fully condemned. what a funny coincidence it works out that way.

This is so very sad. Joe Biden shouldn’t be sitting at home dying of cancer, he should be sitting in a cell in The Hague dying of cancer.

Hunter Biden recently said Joe Biden is reportedly in significant pain as cancer spreads to his bones. I’m wishing him strength, comfort, dignity…and precious time with those he loves.

Feel as though people will truly never understand his death. He was killed for being an Indigenous Queer Man with a Transgender Partner. Every single one of those signifiers on axis/intersections/marginalizations is extremely important, but it is in tandem all at once not just because he “Gay”.

We lost Jonathan Joss exactly One Year ago today. A neighbor burned his house, killed his dogs and shot him in the street for being Gay. Never forget Jonathan Joss. #KingOfTheHill #JohnRedcorn

I am so sorry to ask but I'm trying to avoid homelessness and scrape by, if any of you comrades can help me even a little bit so I can pay some of my overdue rent it would be a massive relief for me, I'm short $350 right now. $natalierevolts on cashapp or paypal.me/natalierevolts

Listen to Venezuelans! No, not the Venezuelans in the streets demanding Maduro's return. No, not the polls saying most people in Venezuela oppose US regime change. Those are the wrong Venezuelans. I meant listen to the Venezuelan talking to Fox News from his mansion in Miami.

We cannot survive another neoliberal president. We CANNOT *TOLERATE* Another neoliberal president. This is unlivable and inexcusable. If you think for one second voting blue no matter who will save us, you are LYING to yourself. THIS is what they do and we MUST fight to change them.

I apologize for asking, I've been struggling trying to get by and could really use your help. I'm just wanting to pay my rent next month, I really need to pull together $400, if you have the means and can assist me even a bit with that I'd be incredibly grateful. I'll put my stuff below in a reply.

📰 Pyongyang Times: "Many countries are now propagating their cities as potential centres of the UN. As many have been disillusioned with the US dictating that everything should be subordinate to its interests [...] it has become a global trend to cope with its arbitrary practice."

Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

i do think that’s where a lot of the obvious resentment for the userbase comes from. 90% of us on here doesn’t really care about the primary reason why this place exists but use his place out of sheer convenience

it remains really funny that this site was spun up to be a crypto/rationalist platform and then old time weird twitter people and others started moving over here in spring 2023 and ever since management has been mad they're successful but not in the way they wanted

me initially: this isn't even an explanation at all? me after five times re-reading it: wait lmao oh my god she thinks her speech made up for totally denying any palestinian spokesperson. the actual 'why' is unimportant to her, she just thinks she actually delivered something just as good

Honestly, a really good article. It's not just Fox News and MAGA that have made it hell for trans people in recent years. It's some of the "liberal" news outlets and centrist publications that made this possible too.

someone quoted this (before blocking me anyway) to say that voter blaming is actually correct ("and you forgot about joe manchin"), so let me expand here: marco rubio had a *unanimous* confirmation. not a single dem senator, not one, went "no, i cannot accept this". is this the voter's fault?

Colin Spacetwinks@spacetwinks.bsky.social

seeing another rash of voter blaming and i wonder how people reconcile this with all the times dem senators - in deep blue states, even - that people voted for and put into office decided to give unanimous consent to GOP shit so they could go on vacation. they voted 'correctly', and yet, get nothing

i hope nobody still accepts the bullshit "to appeal to more voters" framing. rich people are spending money to push the politics they favor, it has absolutely nothing to do with electability

genuinely saw a liberal talking about newsom as doing some things wrong (anti-homeless policies) but some things right (trolling trump on the internet) and i really wonder about the worth of that second thing, there. is that doing anything at all
