The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

From Evan: it's a huge night of hope for the trans community. The Republicans went all in on anti-trans ads in multiple races and so far there's no sign it got them anything. Perhaps the page can be turned on blaming us for Harris' loss last year.

Note how he accidentally refers to them as "people" and feels the need to correct himself.

Is this a concession speech?

Fuck you, make me.

Florida's #ncaambb coach looks like he got lost on the way to a Turning Point USA convention.

Congrats to the fine people of the Badger state for handing Elon Musk his own ass on a platter

In your face, Strom.

When I saw @booker.senate.gov was starting last night, I thought it was a nice symbolic gesture. When it became clear he was going for the record, it got *much* more exciting. Take it over the finish line, Senator!

Do we want to defend being human, or are we willing to submit to our species being ground into soulless and degraded flesh paste for the benefit of a few hundred dead-eyed tech billionaires? THAT is the fundamental question that the Musk/Trump techno feudalist regime have presented humanity with.

“I want to give all glory to god” <crowd does racist chant in background> America!

The greatest sin of capitalism (and potentially other systems too) is equating the value of a person with the value of their labor.

It's hard to fathom how it's physically possible to spend that amount of money on a wedding, short of just lighting it on fire--literally. Based on the numbers I could find, that's roughly what it would cost to build the Texas A&M football bonfire out of $1 bills.

Seconded. Any "argument" that doesn't start with the assumption below is wrong and not worth engaging with.

This would be great. Embroil him in a fight with a powerful company, in which nothing bad (I think?) happens if he wins, and hopefully it'll distract him from doing other stuff. I suppose the potential downside is making people actually like him.

On this day in 1970, Charles Schulz replied to a 10-year-old kid who had written and asked, “What makes a good citizen?"

Protect trans kids.

Today’s the day. VOTE!

As we all await the outcome of what feels like a make-or-break election, I want to offer some perspective, if you’ll hand a fellow with eight-plus decades the mic for a moment.

Happy to report that early voting turnout was so gangbusters here that I got called in as extra staff at one of the locations today. I don't think I've felt this positive about the election in weeks.

@sentinasmith.bsky.social Your turn next!

Denethor gave up without a fight because he spent too much time staring into a telecommunications device that only showed him the most frightening and depressing information. Don't be like Denethor.

This line from Harris's speech stuck with me for some reason, so I memed it.

StopProject2025 is starting to get noticed outside the comics bubble, if you have the reach or friends who do, please push it into the spotlight! A lot of talented cartoonists up against their own deadlines made time for this because it affects us all.

Apparently Elon Musk dumped various SpaceX detritus on somebody else's land. The owner of that land turned out to be everyone who bought into a Cards Against Humanity promo in 2017. They're now suing him. www.elonowesyou100dollars.com

I don't know for sure, but the numbers I've found also suggest that running the a/c for one day emits about the same amount of carbon as a typical commute by car. And alternatives to cars exist, too. So if using a/c is a moral failing, don't we have to say the same of driving? #thewaroncars

Gov. Walz: The one thing that I will not forgive those other guys for is they try to steal the joy from this country. But you know what? Our next president brings the joy

here's our future VP signing into law legislation that made Minnesota trans refuge state, protecting trans children from overreach by state AGs like Paxton in Texas.

Who put Martha-Ann Alito in charge of the Olympics opening ceremony?

Newbern, Alabama – a small town an hour away from Selma – will hold its first legitimate elections in over 60 years after a four-year legal battle The proposed settlement will also reinstate Patrick Braxton, who sued white leadership, as the mayor

I hope gas goes up to eight bucks a gallon!
