I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

#Serbia's Aleksandar Vučić has acknowledged defeat. After years of dominating Serbian politics, he is facing a loss to the student movement born out of protests against corruption. No final results available. People are already gathering on the streets.

Ultra-wealthy donors are spending a staggering $430 million to fight state efforts to raise their taxes. If they can afford to drop millions of dollars to keep their taxes low, they can afford to pay slightly higher taxes. They’re making the case for taxing the rich better than anyone else could.

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

Thank you for the beautiful introduction, my friend! I’m excited too. I hope the song will resonate with listeners—and, most of all, with Jason. Friends, please like/share, if you really like it and wanna help me to help Jason (Watson) and his family.

📢Coming Soon: A beautiful song for a beautiful intention: turning Jason’s sacrifice into a song of love, courage, and hope. I’m honored to share this release by the musician activist HoneySalt. May it reach the people who need it—and may Jason and his family (friends) feel the warmth inside it.

There is NO vaccine that offers sterilizing immunity against the flu or covid. NONE. Yes, it will prevent you from having a bad acute infections in most cases - but it does not prevent you from spreading it!!! They offer none-sterilizing immunity! So MASK THE FUCK UP!!! #vaccines #vaccinate

I would love, absolutely love, at least one prominent contender for the Dem POTUS nomination in 2028 to start threatening this now. "Trump is right that lying on immigration forms is a serious offense. Here are the people my DOJ will investigate on Day 1: Musk, Melania, etc." Put fear in them NOW.
