They knew burning oil was making us sick and heating the planet — but lied to keep doing it. They knew plastic could get into our bodies — but increased plastic production >200X since 1950. There is no question Big Oil CEOs are mass murderers. The question is: Are Big Oil CEOs serial killers?

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

To add to this. Fuck your ignorant hurtful "opinion" you dumb fascist fuckstains. Eviscerating legitimate public education has doomed humanity even more.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

First of all, as the PWHL acknowledge that Trans-Women are women and they belong to women's sports? So far, no. Just like with WNBA did not recognize Trans-Women are women and did not punish Sophie Cunningham. You want my support? Recognize that Covid-19 still exist and 🏳️‍⚧️ are women!!
