There's something to be said for Testimonial injustice as it applies to intersections of privilege as well as oppression. White men, for example, are granted an almost automatic status of "knower" by their privilege, while a disabled woman is disbelieved about her experience of her own symptoms

Oh sure.. watch one Marvel movie and it's just fine Watch them all in chronological story order 6 times and you're called "autistic," or "you're hogging the TV" or "you need to shower you could knock a buzzard off a shitwagon" or "pass the dino nuggies"

The revolution won't be televised but the president will admit to war crimes on social media

Trump doesn't negotiate. He has no idea how. Instead, he threatens and bullies. When he doesn't get his way he behaves like a toddler screaming "well I didn't want to play your dumb game anyway" before melting into a tantrum. Unlike a toddler, however, he threatens war crimes and has nuclear codes.

I don't think it's a shocker that the end result of end stage capitalism is to evict humans from the equation What DOES seem to be surprising people is that corporations didn't bother to figure out what to do with them once they were no longer useful

To all women who are stuck in abusive relationships with a person who relies on alcohol as a crutch, I'm sorry Now would be a good time to get ready to leave. Resources are available for you

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Mississippi’s only alcohol warehouse shut down for what was supposed to be a two-week inventory. The liquor hasn’t flowed right since and business owners say they are in a state of emergency.

I'm at the doctor right now and the (VERY junior) MA was getting me prepped for my appt and said "wow I was gonna ask about your menstrual cycle" "nonexistent" "but it says here you don't have a uterus. How'd you find THAT out?" Oh sweetie...

If you support the invalidation of legal documents and disenfranchisement of trans voting rights, even by way of technicality, then you're okay with dead trans people

I've fucking had it with fence sitters. Pick a side. If it's on the side that supports or are indifferent to trans people dying, I hope you always kinda have to sneeze but not really. Forever

If you support the invalidation of legal documents and disenfranchisement of trans voting rights, even by way of technicality, then you're okay with dead trans people

If you support the erasure of trans people from government text, insisting on the exclusive use of biological sex in identifying people to avoid the "icky" issue of how trans people fit into your society, you are okay with dead trans people

If you support the destruction of or limiting access to trans health care REGARDLESS of age and against carefully crafted standards of care, you are okay with dead trans people

I'm sorry but if you're using nonstandard code formatting AND you're teaching with it and requiring your students to use it too, you deserve to get suckerpunched while someone else lets the air out of your tires

I started at 42. I'm 48 now It's never too late to be who you were meant to

Morgana Ignis@morganaignis.bsky.social

Occasionally I’ll run across doomer posts talking about how there’s no hope for any trans girl who doesn’t start HRT before 20. …I started at 30.

Newsom went "too far left" when he started signing trans positive legislation into law Now he's throwing both trans people and unhoused people under the bus on his march to the middle He's the worst kind of politician: charismatic and maliciously opportunistic

I really should pay more attention to how much cleavage I'm showing during work meetings 😬 Or not. The rules are made up and not documented ANYWHERE and there have been no complaints

I'm gonna need all my theater friends in New York to plaster the stonewall monument with pride flags We will not be erased

The New York Times@nytimes.com

A large Pride flag has been removed from the Stonewall National Monument in New York City, weeks after the Department of the Interior issued federal guidance on displaying “non-agency” flags in the National Park System.

I just want to burn down the world because the people we chose to lead us are making it worse, but I also want to hide from it after - coz the flames are too bright, the world too loud and I don't like warm temperatures Is that too much to ask?

Trump hired Noem whose initials spell KLAN IT'S LITERALLY NAZIS ALL THE WAY DOWN And yes, people who walk over a made up imaginary line should not be arrested and DEFINITELY shouldn't be shot

Casey S. Pumpkins 🎃@caseyexplosion.bsky.social

"Sure, ICE is bad, but we need to deport illegal immigrants" No you don't. If immigration enforcement leads to concentration camps and roving death squads, maybe it's time to just get rid of the concept of illegal immigration entirely. You've tried it, it's a bad idea in practice, so bin it.

NEW: Records also show DHS rushed Mobile Fortify out after abandoning its own facial-recognition oversight rules. Central privacy review was sidelined under orders from a Project 2025–linked former Heritage Foundation lawyer now serving as DHS chief privacy officer. www.wired.com/story/cbp-ic...

Unfortunately because of the way patriarchy works, no one centers women in a way that aims toward harm reduction and reform If they did, we wouldn't need the Epstein files and we'd have just believed women

Brad Lander@bradlander.bsky.social

But (as they agree) it’s as important to listen to those harmed by sexual abuse, to shift the conversation away from sensationalization and toward solutions that attend to the needs of survivors. msmagazine.com/2025/12/17/e...

I worked with someone at NYSE who would regularly go to the bar on the 5th floor and order their most complicated drink because he liked to "watch peons work hard for mere peanuts" I can 💯 guarantee that was not the worst thing he ever did. This kind of shit is a bellwether for vile behavior

markpachucki@markpachucki.bsky.social

I feel like someone’s gotta say something, so I guess it’s going to be me. I’m 100% certain that I either know, have met, or have sought meetings with people who have done horrible things in their lives, too. How about y’all? Association is not causation, and it's not guilt — of anything. (1/8)

Trump bought her a movie and even THAT was a failure I was half tempted to give it the Rocky Horror treatment and mock her mercilessly but zero ticket sales is so much more delightful

Tokyo-Jon@tokyo-jon.bsky.social

That Melania “documentary,” complete failure. #ETTD

That's the thing tho. All of this is what they meant to happen. It's not that we stumbled our way here. Corporations and the elite steered it here The proletariat has an unbelievably minute say in how infrastructure is built and how it is or isn't exploited We're here because they wanted us here

If anyone is woefully unequipped to rise to the moment, it's Chuck Schumer

Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social

Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.” Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity. So pathetic and weak.

Here's my demands: 1. Abolish ice 2. Require background checks for ALL people acting in a law enforcement capacity 3. Ensure that no members of ice are allowed to work in a law enforcement capacity ever again 4. Prosecute Noem and Bovino for crimes against humanity

Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social

Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told: DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big) CBP stays at border warrants for arrests IDs, bodycams ICE out of churches, schools "That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod: newrepublic.com/article/2057...
